Had a wonderful lunch at Cooper's Tavern. The food was delicious. I like when a salad is offered as an alternative to french fries. Our server, Brendan, was excellent. Checked in with us but not obtrusive. Very friendly, polite and knowledgeable. I will definitely be back! read more

We arrived on Sunday for a birthday brunch celebration at 1:00 which was booked through RESY reserved for the patio - and was told by the hostess that the patio was not available for at least 2 hours and that the reservation system should have shown "patio available on first come first serve basis" - it did not but the hostess said they were working on changing it. (very confusing). We were then asked do we want to sit inside? I then stated - well there's no choice then - we will sit inside. She checked the reservation system again and said it would be a 10 minute wait. We told the hostess we would be standing right outside the front door as it was a very busy area at the entrance. After waiting about 20 minutes plus seeing groups of patrons going in and getting seated we inquired about our reservation and the hostess seemed very confused and said it would be a little longer. We also asked why all these people were getting seated and why we were waiting such a long time but she didn't really have an answer. Another employee came by and asked if we needed help. We told her the whole story, she checked the reservation system, said we could be seated outside and directed us to a table outside (our original reservation). It was now 30 minutes after our reservation time. When arriving outside to the patio for our original reservation, we saw that there were plenty of tables available and did not understand why the hostess said that there was no availability outside for two hours. We sat and there seemed to be confusion on who was our waitress but after about 5 minutes or so someone came over to introduce herself and take our drink order. After we put in our drink order, we waited another 15 minutes before our drinks got there, the waitress saying that the bar was very backed up. She couldn't have been nicer and we felt bad for her. Our food order was placed and everyone's food came out but our birthday girl's food, which came out almost 10 minutes after ours. It seemed to be a very chaotic atmosphere for the time we were there with many servers rushing around. There were plenty of tables outside for people to sit but the servers seemed to be changing during the time we were there. We had been patrons of Rhodes Tavern for many years and was looking forward to our celebration at the new place but we were a little disappointed in the day. The service was very slow, food was just average, it was chaotic, hostess confused and honestly we should have been accommodated in a better way. I don't think we will be rushing back soon. read more

Had my daughter's Baby Shower at Cooper's Tavern yesterday. Great experience. Wait staff was very attentive and well managed - thank you Eileen! Space was great with a separate area for the buffet. Food was tasty with nice variety of options for our guests. The team helped our vegan guests select food and the waitress helped keep my mom safe as she has a severe chicken allergy. So glad we chose this location! Beautiful experience. read more

After looking forward to finally eating here, we ended up visiting early afternoon for lunch. As first timers to this restaurant we were very impressed on with how nice the atmosphere was inside with a really well put together bar area. We were sat at a very comfortable table near the bar and couldn't have been happier. With that being said, let me start off with the old adage... You can't eat atmosphere and bad service can kill any restaurant no matter how nice..... Our waiter, who couldn't have been more pleasant, was virtually non existent for the duration of our meal. We ordered 2 draft beer and after somewhat of a long wait we were brought the wrong beer. Not a big deal, but after 15 or so minutes of the waiter being no where to be found I had to get up and walk the beers to the bar and exchange them for the right ones. Our order was simple... 2 of the same beers, 1 soup and 2 entrees. The soup took about 25 minutes to come out and at just over 50 minutes the entrees came out, but one of them was not the correct meal. Instead of leaving the right meal and going back to correct the order both plates were taken away. About 10 minutes later, at just over the 1 hour mark, the proper order was served. Now after sitting for an hour, with an empty beer for half that time, I asked our inattentive waiter for a second beer to drink with my meal. Next thing I know he's behind the bar stacking wine glasses. When the simple twist off long neck bottle of beer finally arrives to the table in record slow time it of course is the wrong beer, but at this point it didn't matter to me anymore. Have no fear though.... when the check was delivered he was back 3 times before we could even read it or count out money to pay. As predicted too... we were over charged $1 for each of our 3 total beers but did not have the energy to argue with this waiter over a matter of $3 when we just wanted to leave. So much for popping in for a quick lunch to check the place out. It is unacceptable if you ask me for a party of 2 to sit for an hour and watch individuals who arrived after us to sit and be given proper service, be served in a timely manner, eat, pay and leave before we even got our food. It is also unacceptable to sit and watch the rest of the waitstaff attend to their tables properly while we sit there receiving subpar service. In conclusion, our experience went from texting family upon sitting down about how nice the place is and how we should come here some time to walking out with the feeling its definitely not worth coming back and risking dealing with the aggravation again. read more

Where do I even begin? What an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. Our date night with my husband started with valet parking--a huge and delightful surprise that instantly set the tone for the evening. We chose to sit at the bar (our favorite spot on kid-free nights) and were warmly greeted by a friendly blonde bartender whose name I unfortunately didn't catch. She was informative, attentive, and helpful throughout our entire visit. She recommended the specialty Picante Margarita, and wow--I was blown away. It had the perfect balance of spice and citrus and was incredibly smooth. I'll be telling everyone to order it. My husband, a beer drinker, went with the suggested Coopers Lager, which was served in an ice-cold mug--he loved it. For food, we ordered the chicken pot pie and shared the "Bee Sting" pizza. I can confidently say this was the best chicken pot pie I have ever had in my life. Everything was flavorful, comforting, and beautifully prepared. We're so happy to have a local spot that delivers amazing food at such a reasonable price. The vibe was fantastic, the food was outstanding, and the service was flawless. We will absolutely be back, and I'll be recommending this place to all our friends and family. You will not be disappointed. read more

We randomly ended up here after my sister's engagement photoshoot nearby and I must say this was a happy accident. I ordered the CT Smash Burger, no cheese and it was one of the best burgers I had in a while. I love that the branded the burger with the logo, nice touch! I also ordered the mocktail mojito, it was so good that I find myself trying to remake it at home. read more

Came in for a couple of pre-dinner drinks with my team the Friday before Christmas. We were able to get the whole side of the bar just after opening, and then it continued to fill up. The bartenders were attentive. I had gin and tonics, which were just the right strength. The Cooper's team was also quick to respond to my questions on social media and was very accommodating. Didn't get a chance to try the happy hour bar bites, but the menu looked good. They have a larger food menu for table seating. read more

Excellent atmosphere, so fun!! Great food and the service was warm and caring. So many cool things to do, sit at the bar, dinner on the patio, and even a sandy beach creekside. I mean, really who has all that? Finally, have a smoke out back on their outdoor smoking patio, away from the diners and a welcoming place. read more

Went today and it was 4:25pm. They renovated the place nicely and the patio and beach area is really nice but not opened today. There was one very busy bartender and almost a full bar and some scattered tables filled up too. I had the poke tuna bowl it was delicious and hubby had the pork belly /chi Charon it was good too. There was a casa amigos promoter there so we got free tequila drinks! read more

After the holidays, we spent some sibling time at Cooper's. Rhodes has been closed for a while, so I've been patiently waiting for this to open! We sat in the bar area for a few drinks - the vibe is cozy but fun. Cooper's is owned by the same owners of Hearth & Tap in the Pearl River/Montvale area which is one of my favorites. We were very lucky to meet the owner Chris. I'm excited to come back for dinner and check out the new menu! read more

Right on the small water the music was good beers are nicely chilled food was okay but the atmosphere is amazing will definitely be back

4th time trying to like this place and it just keeps getting worse somehow. Today we watched at least 8 people walk out who waited lengthy amounts of time for any sort of service. This was tables and bar patrons. The folks we spoke to at the bar said they went from a table to the bar in hopes of better service and it still fell short. The bartender seemed to be having a medical emergency in which she proceeded to stay behind the bar instead of leaving. This seemed like an episode out of the Twilight Zone. We left after our beer. As did most others. What a tragedy. Will not be back anytime soon. read more

Looks good after the renovations, cozy booths by the bar area and a great dining room. We went for lunch and got there around 12:15. We were greeted and asked if we wanted to see in the bar area or the dining room. We chose a booth in the bar area. Lunch menu looked good with lots of choices. We ordered drinks, Bloody Mary for him and Blue Moon for me. Our server Casey was so great and personable and my hubby said she made a fantastic Bloody Mary too. We shared French dip sliders and the double smash burger that comes with fries. Everything was delicious and the perfect size for lunch. Casey made our lunch that much more enjoyable, we talked about family and everyday life. We will definitely be back...... but only on the day Casey works. PS so sorry no pictures we were really hungry! read more

Like I promised, I've given your restaurant over 3 chances. Cute place, wish I could say more nice things. Always want small business's to succeed! Service still horrendous. Server never can back to find out if food was correct or if we wanted any more cocktails. Sever never cleared our dirty dishes. Had to find a manager to get the check, server was playing hide and seek! Very disappointed!!!! Running fine dinning restaurants for the last 35 years, I'm not looking for the quality of service you would expect from fine dining but come on, you can't even put an effort in. Your whole staff needs to be retrained from the hostess, bartenders and waitstaff to management. I think,if you had your management correctly trained, you would see a vast improvement!! I want you to succeed!!! Reach out to me and I would be glad to help. read more

I am astounded on how cozy and comfy atmosphere. It's perfect for a girls night dinner a birthday looks very family friendly a very big upgrade from Rhodes. Our waitress was great. Her name was Lisa very attentive in making sure that we were OK. I believe that I met the owner as she's the first face that you see if it is her and she did walk around and asked if everything was fine. We walked out. She also said thank you for coming. She was very comforting very welcoming as well my friend and I sometimes we'll split something tonight was one of those nights and it was a good thing we did. The food was great portioned out as that's the first time I left a restaurant full not like overly full just full definitely a place to take the family friends to enjoy it somewhere you feel like home. I'll keep you updated as I definitely want to try other things on the menu as well as my best friend said too. Don't let the other reviews for you as they must've went on an off day or the beginnings and I'm wishing for many more. You could tell them the girl with the cane sent you. read more

The food was just okay and the service was not great. Asked for napkins and the waiter threw them on the table. Slow service and did not check on the table after the main course was served. Ambiance was pretty good. read more

I will say they did a beautiful job on the renovation and the outdoor dining is very impressive. However, I guess someone has to pay for that renovation because the menu prices are very expensive. I made the mistake of ordering the Smashburger today and paid almost $20 for two tiny patties, which were even smaller than McDonald's patties. Super nice staff however, the food was a big disappointment. Nothing is more irritating than leaving an establishment hungry. read more

Horrible smell! All of the napkins and table area smell like pledge and table cleaner. What a shame.

Endorsing James M. You weren't prepared for your beach opening. Disorganized, insufficient staff, poor assignment communication, meals missing listed components. One staff tearing, had to be reassigned. read more

The food is fine, a bit above average. The meatloaf was a bit too salty but otherwise good, and my friend liked his smash burger. Their service, however, is terrible. It's mostly young kids who are clearly not trained well at all. There was a very long wait between being seated and our drink order being taken. Then we were never asked if we wanted another round of drinks. Once our food came we were never asked "how is it?" or checked in with again. We had to flag a different server for the check. The service makes it hard for me to want to try again. read more

The interior decor is lovely with a bar area and fireplace and another separate area for quiet dining. I had a pepperoni pizza which was thin crust and large and a chocolate chip lava cake which was enormous- I would suggest they shrink the cookie part to 1/2 size ala mode and charge 6.95$ instead of having it be large enough for 2 and 9.95$. There were some items like Brussel sprouts and ribs that were not on the lunch menu and only available for dinner that I missed out on and would have ordered as I heard they were also excellent. Newly opened so still getting some practice in but the servers were very nice and helpful.I'd recommend this place as it streamlines its operations read more

I was there as part of a large party for brunch. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was also good, the items seemed to have been made in-house as opposed to being pre-made, which was great considering all the short cuts a lot of restaurants take these days. Overall, a good experience, food beat my expectations for an Irish pub. My Irish Coffee apertif was exceptional. I recommend Cooper's Tavern. read more

I want them to Phil went to watch football on wildcard Sunday. Door was open but I was greeted rudely saying that they don't open until three. What kind of bar is not open at 1 o'clock for football and lunch? read more

First time at this place. French onion soup had cheddar cheese not gruyere as stated on the menu. Breaded cauliflower no flavor, parmesan truffle fries served with a spec of parmesan did not taste any truffle. Shrimp tacos only ok. We were a party of three and were so disappointed. We will not be back read more

Extremely disappointing first visit. While we were sitting at our table, the hostess walked by and called us "freeloaders." When we addressed it, she claimed it was "just a joke." We did not know her, it was our first visit, and the comment was completely inappropriate--especially considering our group spent over $1,000. After paying our bill, we attempted to order dessert for our children. When I asked the same hostess for a dessert menu and a waitress, I was met with huffing, puffing, and clear annoyance. From that point on, it was obvious we were no longer welcome and were being rushed out. There were additional issues throughout the visit, but overall we felt disrespected and uncomfortable. This is not acceptable customer service, especially for first-time guests. Despite all this, Jules our waitress was amazing! read more

Excellent food service. Friendly staff. French onion soup was out of this world. A must try.

I anticipated this place opening for a long time as I watched them give new life to the exterior of the old Rhodes Tavern. It's beautiful outside to say the least. I was somewhat surprised that they had Valet parking ( not common in these parts), but the old motorcycle lot was filled, so no other choice. After parking I was really ready and could not wait to walk in and have a scrumptious meal. I looked online and saw the menu, which seemed well rounded, albeit quite pricey, but reasoned that with the price (and high end Valet Service) would come an awesome experience! I walked in and saw the same Rhodes fixtures and booths. There was a very stale smell in the air and my hopes were tarnished. All well I thought, and waited for my meal. I ordered a Tavern specialty (corned beef). Dried out meat and no fixings at all. I really wanted to like the new place and had an unfortunate experience. I will try again in a few months once they settle in and hope that it gets great... read more

When here with a big group, service was excellent, food was great, we sat upstairs and moved downstairs to the bar after our meal. It was a beautiful day so we got to sit outside, which was a huge bonus. Will definitely be back. read more

Had a burger which was really good. Extremely fast service. I chose not to park valet, this is not the type of place that needs valet- would suggest turning there valet lot into a normal lot like it was for Rhodes read more

Got here at 10:55 for 11am brunch unfortunately it was still not fully ready except for Krisztian the bar tender she not only took our order she got the coffee flowing made sure we were ok several times all while on her own!!!! I hope Cooper's tavern knows a great employee when they see one because Krisztian is one!!!! read more

I went to Coopers for the first time today. It was excellent! Valet parking, great food, inviting space. I loved it and will definitely be back! read more

Disappointing. Very dark (hard to see the menu! Luckily I got some illumination from the tv on the wall behind us). No hostess, so we waited until a waitress who happened to be walking by took notice of us to seat us. Our waiter was so busy, he didn't even introduce himself to us- he was like a Roadrunner dishing out orders all around. Nice man but he really had a lot of running around to do. The entrees came impossibly fast- we had just been served our appetizer and 5 mins later the dinner comes out. Mediocre food and how fast it came out after ordering made us feel like it was previously frozen and just quickly thawed to serve (how else can you explain that speed??) The food was just ok, not great not terrible. Overall, we probably won't be back, but in a pinch if we need to stop in again we would order burgers to be on the safer side. read more

I reviewed when they first opened an although it was generally a good experience. My only negative was the cocktails. Specifically the old fashion which was below acceptable. It was barely one sip. Well. I went back today and it was really good. The old fashion was very good and substantial (looked like the photo on the website). We tried other food and everything was excellent. The margarita pizza and the french dip sliders were awesome. Thanks read more

I want to like this place but third time there and still disappointed. Went for St Paddy's day. Service has been mediocre all three times I've gone - servers don't know the menu, forgetting to bring you something, not asking how things are, giving us wrong food, serving others before us who sat after us. Food could be great but sadly is not. Got Irish soda bread in a basket (as it was advertised) but it was just slices of bread on a plate. Traditional Irish soda bread is not supposed to be sweet - this was incredibly sweet. My fish and chips tasted like they were cooked from frozen. Not greasy, But a little slimy with no flavor and a ton of brown bits. Cheesecake to finish was not at all a cheesecake - not crust and was consistency of a mousse. To top it off it was advertised as being topped with "macerated raspberries" - we received strawberries. To add to it we were sat next to the bathroom which reeked of septic. The staff is very friendly and the ambience is nice. I'd really like to support a local business but the owner needs to address these issues to make us come back. read more

Sorry food was ok, smallish portions and everything is pretty pricey. Service was so so and they forgot our dessert! Nice gentleman apologized and said was going to talk to a manager about our bill and although it was a nice gesture wouldn't expect a discount! Well guess what, no discount but that is ok. Put your sorry's in a sack! Not sure we will be back but maybe we will see. read more

Cooper's Tavern is a great family restaurant that is handicapped accessible with super service. The menu is varied and offers something for everyone enjoy your meal. read more

Food was decent and servers were ok and gave me the wrong check and took forever to comeback to my table

We went there for my 18th birthday party and it was perfect. The menu was on the smaller side but had a wide range of items that everyone with different tastes can find something they like to eat. The service was great and we got our food in a very short time. read more

went yesterday with a large group. The staff was very good, friendly and helpful. Our server ( don't recall his name but he lives in Sloatsburg and worked at Rhodes) was very good. The smashed burger was excellent. they were out of a few beers on the menu and some food selections and kids drinks - normal for a recent opening my only complaint really were the cocktails. Two of us ordered the Coopers Old Fashion. Taste was on point but if you take out the large ice cube (which I like) there was very little to the drink itself. Without exaggeration Id say two sips and I'd be surprised if it was more than an ounce Not worth the $15.00 price. other cocktails were very weak too. while eating an ad for Coopers was shown on the TV and it showed an Old Fashion which was 3/4 full - we all had a laugh and ordered a Guinness Decor was good as well. they did a good job on Reno. I may go back but will stick to beer I hope they expand the drought menu. read more

Attended the Galentines day brunch yesterday and it was something to remember. The food was great, the service was excellent and the atmosphere was amazing.
