10/10 wedding venue! I'll tell you what our wedding planner told us: "1. They have the BEST food. 2. If you are the kind of couple that doesn't want to make a lot of decisions Coopers Hall is definitely the place for you if you are very particular about what you want then Coopers Hall might not be the place for you." Personally, as a bride experiencing decision fatigue, Coopers Hall was a godsend. Tables, chairs, napkins, dishes, serving style etc. is already planned. I only had to decide how I wanted them to fold the napkins instead of deciding what rental chairs I wanted to get and what serving style I wanted, and how many servers I needed and what dishes and cups I wanted, all of those decisions were already done, which was great. Coopers Hall is a gorgeous location and they set the tables beautifully and do an excellent job serving guests. They just are such prop at hosting weddings. OK and the food, the food was amazing. I am someone who cares deeply about the quality of food and this place did not disappoint. You benefit from having everything made fresh in the kitchen instead of it being catered and rubbery or mushy by the time people eat it at other venues. The chef is incredible, and has really perfected some fantastic dishes. My guests are still talking about the bang bang cauliflower. Definitely would recommend if you're looking for a one stop shop wedding venue.

Well call me excited to finally get to Coopers Hall. I had tried their wine at Nicholas Family Restaurant down off SE Grand. I have to say branding always catches me and to be honest I loved the branding on their bottles that Nicholas sells. On my first visit, I did the Cooper's Hall red flight. It was lovely. The only wine I didn't like was the Merlot, and I typically don't like them anyway. The atmosphere is very chill and classy, though you don't have to dress up it's casual. I love their concept of wines on tap, as their Cooper's Hall Red is very good and $11/glass but you can spend $3, buy a to-go bottle and spend $12 for a bottle of it! Then refill everytime you return. I came back last week for a girls night out and tried a build your own red flight. I liked 0/5 of the wines. So it's Cooper's Hall reds for me! I may try to sample the bubble flight next trip but I love the ambiance here.

Coopers Hall is a beautiful venue for weddings and gatherings, with its large open space, oak barrels lining the perimeter, lots of plants, and natural light. The large wooden tables with high stools or tables along a banquette provide lots of seating options in a very cool space. At night it's very dark with subtle light coming from the candles on the tables and strands of tiny white party lights above. Coopers Hall is not just for events, it's also a Taproom good for small group gatherings or couples. Friends of mine threw me a surprise celebration here when I received a milestone promotion. There were many options for tastings, flights of red or white wine, cider or beer, cocktails and full glasses of your favorite beverage as well. The food was fresh and delicious; everyone, especially me, enjoyed the celebration! Recently I went back with a friend, my first time back since Covid. We were there on a Tuesday night and for the majority of the evening, we were the only ones there. Not Coopers fault by any means, but it does affect the atmosphere when you don't have the talk and laughter from other patrons creating white noise and energy. For some reason it took some time for the waitress to ask for my drink order. I chose the red flight, four pours for $17. It included a Pinot Noir, Tempranillo, Malbec and a Merlot which I'm not typically a fan of unless in a blend, but it wasn't bad. Really liked the Malbec from Rougue County so ordered a full glass afterwards so we could continue hanging out and enjoying conversation. Maybe it was an off night, but the service wasn't as friendly or responsive as I expected. When a place is busy, those working there have to hustle. On this night, since it was almost empty, they were hanging out with themselves and and didn't seem to realize we were there. Don't get me wrong, I will come back. I like the space and vibe, the wine and cider selection is good, and it's close to my house. They have a small parking lot and if you can, park there. Part of the street out front is now an outdoor dining area and the street behind is lined with tents and I don't feel comfortable parking my car there. So go early to score a spot in their lot. Hours are Tuesday through Friday, 4:00-9:00. Since they host private events, do check their website. Better yet, make a reservation so you know they are open.

Inner east side wine bar that also serves upscale bar food served mostly family style. A couple veggie options. The spring greens were surprisingly delicious and apparently their specialty and the cheeses were unique. My partner has the burger and enjoyed it. I got a wine flight and enjoyed that too. The taproom isn't open everyday and sometimes closed for special events. Overall, it was very good but very pricey for what it was. And I had to order extra dishes to fill up since they don't really have a vegetarian entree.

Hors D'Oeurves

This is a wonderful venue for a wedding! For a friend's recent nuptials, Coopers Hall did a fantastic job. The large open space under the corrugated steel hangar roof was set up for the ceremony with 120 chairs in 10 rows. The tables were already set up with full silver, stemware and candles and pushed to the side. The rest of the winery was sectioned off behind a wall of rustic wooden barrels. The staff efficiently reconfigured for sit down dinner with 6 long tables (6x16=96) plus an additional 2 up in the mezzanine (+32) for a total of 128 guests. A dance floor area was also left open while the DJ set up in the corner. During the cocktail hour, the long bar was open while hors d'oeurves platters were floated out of the kitchen. The sitdown dinner reception was served family style in 6 courses and I'm glad for that because I got to try everything. Salad course was Arugula & Mustard Greens dressed with Oregon grapes, shaved fennel, walnuts & fig leaf grape vinaigrette. The first main course was Roasted Salmon with kohlrabi & apple remoulade and glazed radish. The second main course was a Rotisserie Chicken Chausseur with mushrooms & herbs, which was a very tasty, charred spring chicken cut into quarters. These were followed by a pasta course of orecchiette in a creamy mahon cheese sauce with squash, swiss chard & mushrooms. Finishing side courses were Fried Brussels Sprouts & Braised Carrots. Both vegetable dishes could have stood by themselves and the vegans at our table raved about them. Paired with dinner were Coopers' own vintages, a Cascade White and a Cabernet Sauvignon, both sweet and not too dry. It was a fun and pleasurable evening that the Coopers staff made all the more tasty and enjoyable!

The dinner menu

My brother's wedding venue was Coopers Hall. I found out one of the reasons was the whole "all inclusive" thing. I dont know the details, but I heard, basically, everything was taken care of. The dinner, the location, dj drinks, snacks, staff, cutlery and tables and such, ... you know, All Inclusive... I started this review cuz the food was so freakin good! But, honestly, they pulled off an incredible wedding. I mean, everything and everyone was professional, clean, friendly, attentive... They had an open bar menu. So, as long as you ordered from that menu or any of their 'well spirits', its covered. On top of that, if you want a special drink, you can pay your own tab, and they'll make you whatever. I had an Angel's Envy Rye, and my wife had a G&T that she said was quite well made. Before the wedding, they had several staff with several kinds of appetizers in the "milling around portion. Plenty of surfaces, like wine barrels to place empty glasses, napkins, etc... and the staff were quick to spot anything that needed bussing. The staff also rearranged all the tables and chairs and such, so, when the wedding was over, all the chairs were removed, the tables were placed, and dinner was served. And my goodness... they did not skimp on the quality of the food... wow. They really outdid themselves. The trout with blackberries and corn... the pork... the raclette potatoes... Everything on the plate was amazing!! And there was plenty of it, too! (I was even able to take a small plate to-go. I didnt wanna waste it...) After dinner, they cleared the dancefloor and rugs were cut. Bravo!! A shining example of how to do a wedding!

A gorgeous space! I went here for a wedding and was stunned as soon as I walked in. The space gets incredible light and the barrels, strung lights, and hanging plants give it a rustic, sophisticated look. Just speaking towards the wedding catering but the dishes - chicories caesar, salmon with an amazing coconut curry sauce and grilled nectarines (wow!), roasted pork belly, and heirloom tomatoes were so delicious - I can't remember having a better wedding meal. Thank you Coopers Hall for this memorable experience! Can't wait to come back next time I'm in town.

The donuts are a must.
Terrance S.

Was looking for a great place on Yelp to stop by on our anniversary and we made a great pick with Cooper Hall. Decor was dope, staff was great, food was great, and the donuts are amazing. Great place to sit and sip wine, talk, and simply hang out. I recommend bringing your companion or that special someone here. The setting is real smooth, and again the staff was great. The free glasses of bubbly in honor of our anniversary was a great way to start our first visit here. Bartender was supreme, knowledgeable, and on point. We will be back and hope you will to...

We hosted our wedding here in August 2022. It was a dream. The CH team was amazing to work with. Jane, our day of coordinator, went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. She made sure everything ran smoothly and that we didn't have to lift a finger. The food and drinks were amazing and had so many options to customize. Food was served family style and it was classy yet comfortable. I would recommend Coopers Hall to anyone getting married!! Photos courtesy of Michaela Elena Photography!

Here for a conference and loved the place. Super cool ambience. Dinner was served and it was great - buffet style - but the bartender made me an old fashioned and let me tell you was I impressed ... it was delicious very comparable to the old fashioned served at The Brown in Kentucky. Yet again I failed to get his name but he was tall and slender . Let me say a couple people tasted my drink and proceeded to order the same and even funnier was that we saw many more ordering the same! Cool vibes

Decor is mostly plants and wine barrels - which nicely offsets the concrete, metal, and glass of the structure itself
John K.

My wife and I stopped in for happy hour, and had a wonderful time. I see lots of reviews from people who attended, or hosted events here, and it was pretty clear that the space would be a wonderful location for potentially large groups. But, it is also terrific for two people to stop in and enjoy drinks and a menu designed to go with them. One of us had a cocktail (a rum-based delight called Hotel Nacional, which brought back pleasant memories of the namesake in Havana), the other had wine (exclusively served on tap), and we shared a really nice cheese plate. The cheese did not come with the detailed history that you might get at Cheese Bar, but service was excellent - friendly, informative, attentive but never hovering - just what I always hope for. This is a lovely spot for relaxing with friends, no matter if it's one, or a large group.

German band!

Cool place! Came here for an event with 150 or some people from a conference. The wine on tap was all really tasty and the staff was really friendly about letting us try samples to decide which one we wanted. Food was great, served family style which isn't my favorite. But with this many people it seemed to work. Everything was really tasty. I liked the atmosphere with all the hanging plants, high ceilings and wine barrels. Great venue for an event.

This place is awesome!! From the atmosphere to the wine to the food. My friends wanted to try this place out and see what the rave was all about. First of all, the decor is fairly minimal, but works really well. I really like how it feels like you ate eating inside a warehouse...but not really. Second, the food was amazing. We ordered the whole chicken, braised short rib, fries, fried brussel sprouts, and the caesar salad. The whole chicken was a good idea for the three of us to split. The braised short rib was cooked perfectly and melts in your mouth. The caesar salad had this amazing smoked dressing that gave it a taste that I haven't experienced before. It was money! Third, our server Maegan was on point with serving and suggesting certain wines to try out. She made us feel welcomed and definitely enhanced our experience.

You can absolutely smell the fish and vinegar as soon as you walk through the door, which I think gives the place a very homey pub feel. I ordered a spiked peach Arnold Palmer, which I enjoyed (and it was pleasantly strong) and a glass of the house white, which was good for the price. Our server was very fast and attentive. To eat I got the tomato soup with a grilled cheese, which was absolutely fantastic. The soup was so creamy and flavorful, and I cannot imagine a better meal after spending all day walking outside in the rain. The fries were super crispy and I liked the batter. My partner and I shared some of their breadsticks, which were deliciously baked (fresh!) and came with a super refreshing basil crema and a nice tomato-y dip. Wonderful all. My partner ordered fish and chips, and was surprised to find that it is one large fillet of fish, not multiple pieces like you would typically expect. He said the fish was fine, but a little tough. Overall, a wonderful experience. I definitely hope to return. I highly recommend this place as a refuge during the cold winter months!

But it's always a nice spot to hang out and chat with friends, you can get seated quicker if you enter through Over & Out, which basically functions as an extension of the main Observatory, with it's own bar and pool tables.

The space itself is smaller and intimate, so bringing a larger group than about 4-5 people might not be ideal. The ambiance definitely gave Italy vibes, for sure. The chicken liver mousse was a good consistency, paired with the figs gave a nice balance between sweet and savory. The steak frites was a classic, steak was a good portion and cooked medium rare, but I'm sure if you wanted it more cooked through, you could make that request. The fries were definitely a standout, great texture and the garlic flavor gave a good contrast to the steak. My favorite dish was the dessert, the flaky crust gave a nice texture to the cream insides. I'm a huge passionfruit fan, so once I saw it was on the menu, I knew I had to try it. It didn't disappoint and I would definitely come back just for this dish alone. Overall a solid experience and would recommend people to try Canard out at least once!

Our female server was rushed from the get go. While I was perusing the drink menu, she ran off to get my partner his wine because he had decided already. She wasn't willing to wait 5 seconds for me to decide. She was in a hurry to service other diners. It wound up being this way throughout the meal. There was constant rushing and not paying attention to us. It felt awkwardly harried. The problem with the food was my dish came half hot, half cold. The quail was hot and very flavorful while the pureed peas and potatoes were served cold under the quail. Normally, I would send it back for this, but I was too hungry and didn't want to hassle it. This entree was $38. But the biggest offense was that I wrote the restaurant about my experience and they did not respond. I might give a place another chance if they cared enough to hear from their customers and apologize, but that didn't happen. Hence this review.
