Very good Irish fair to include bangers and mashed that pairs well with a pint of Guinness. Servers are friendly and attentive despite being busy. Happy to recommend read more

2 chicken strips Awful service Upwards Of 2 hours to get the check and we where the only people in there. The employees where just hanging out and didnt see us waving them down. Ambiance is ok I guess read more

Your run of the mill "irish" pub that every city seems to have. I ordered the Hellfire Burger. It was comparable to someplace like Chilis. Nothing over the top or unusual about it. My wife ordered a regular hamburger and loved it. And shes picky about burgers. Maybe I should've gotten that one. My daughter ordered a plate of chicken strips and she said they was just average. Definitely a better place to drink than eat. Service was good, waitress was friendly. read more

Copper Penny Pub - Hellfire burger - Irish Near Me - Hot Springs, Arkansas

This is your typical pub. Not a lot of people inside so we were served immediately. There was someone singing inside, which we didn't really want to hear, but they stopped two songs into us getting there. I got a punch, but it was ok, not strong. It was your average pub, a place to grab a drink and sit with friends. I won't come back if we do come back to this town. read more

We went there for dinner and ended up hanging out until 11:30! We sat at the bar because that's where we like to be. The bartender was amazing and so fun. I hate I didn't ask her name. She served us in November when we stopped in for a drink. I had the most amazing BLT! It's named A Damngood BLT and that is no joke. I didn't get the avocado or egg on it and I asked for crispy bacon. I could have made a meal out of just the bacon because there was so much and it tasted like it was seasoned. It's definitely big enough to split between 2 people. The picture doesn't do it justice. My husband had sweet tai chili wings. He couldn't believe how good they were. They have several different flavors but he will stick with that one. Very fun atmosphere. Large dining area and bar with an open dining area. They had a band that consisted of 3 guitar players which was perfect. It wasn't just unbearably loud. They played songs that everyone should know and could sing along with. We will definitely be back when we visit Hot Springs again. read more

A fun bar on Main Street in AR, we came after visiting the bath houses for cold drinks. As a group of four, we ordered a few cocktails and non-alcoholic drinks as well as an appetizer. While our waitress seemed disappointed we did not order more drinks, the drinks we did order were tasty. The cocktails range from "Irish Trashcan" which included an energy drink and three types of alcohol to a Lemon Sour, which was a little more simple and very enjoyable. Over 20 beers were on draft, and our group enjoyed a few. The apps were most certainly comfort food with options like fried pickles and artichoke dip. Classic Irish tavern atmosphere that I'm sure gets more lively as the night progresses. read more

We dropped in with a large party on a Sunday afternoon, and they seated us promptly. Since we'd had a big breakfast, some of us were splitting entrees, some not eating at all. We're not usually *that* group and most restaurants would side-eye us (understandably) but Copper Penny Pub did not. Our waitress was incredibly personable and friendly, and the food was good. The hits for us were the the Rueben, the cheeseburger, and the fries (definitely worth the upcharge over the chips). We didn't wait long and our waitress (I so wish I could remember her name!) kept our drinks refilled. The atmosphere is definitely "pub" but the location was convenient to our historic Hot Springs walk, the AC was kicked up, and they had multiple TVs broadcasting sports. The kids stayed entertained, and It was a great experience! read more

I didn't eat at Copper Penny Pub, so I can't speak to the food. I just pulled up for a cheeky little drink before appointments. So the beer and the service? Excellent! I got a pint of the Southern Eclipse beer from Bubba Brew's Brewing Company, a local brewery out of Arkansas. The friendly bartender told me that it's a beer that looks like a Guinness but tastes like an IPA. He was right! It was a little weird drinking such a dark-colored, chocolatey-looking beer and having it taste so light. But it was great. When I visited, they served it on tap. Hopefully, they still do when you visit. There were a couple of locals who were posted up at the bar, and because I was full of dark-but-light beer, I chatted them up. And then the bartender jumped in, and it made my visit to Copper Penny very nice. This is a very mellow bar on the outer edge of Bathhouse Row, and it is definitely worth a stop. read more

Please come here.. after being at another BRICKHOUSE that failed on customer service this place deserves praises. I went to the other , name that shall not be mentioned, they denied me a comfortable atmosphere and "free WiFi " that they claimed to have. I walked a few blocked over and entered a great place that I'll come back to when I am back in Arkansas. Sara reminded me of a past time w her accent and Emily was the best! I spent several hours here trying to complete some work on my laptop w working WiFi and never felt rushed out. Irish nachos were great and all the food I saw coming out looks EFFIN GREAT! Kudos to this place truly! read more

Copper Penny Pub - Mini Guinness shot with a Guinness beer on draft - Irish Near Me - Hot Springs, Arkansas

Walking in was great. Got out of the rain and they accommodated. But the woman with the accent was more interested in telling stories than giving good service. She was so loud, my friends and I had to talk when she wasn't talking. We went back later that night, and enjoyed the music for about 10 min. Food came out fine but waited for drinks too long. Waiting outside for our Uber was the best part. We got to see and meet the locals that made our night. Not a highlight of our girls trip. read more

A nice Irish pub. Service was friendly. Food was excellent. We had the Irish egg rolls and Irish nachos.

Overall a 10/10! Food was scrumptious with a homey Irish twist. Environment was friendly, had many TVs for sports viewing, and appreciated the music not being too loud. Service was phenomenal, our server (Elaina) was a sweetheart who informed us of the specials. She was very knowledgeable of the food/drinks. Not to mention incredibly attentive while being slam packed just. The poutine (hard to find sometimes) was well executed with the inclusion of bangers. Reuben tasted as if the corned beef was made in house, so yum! Pro tip: dip the roll in the Mac and cheese beer sauce. Price:$79 for 1 Guinness, 2 cocktails, appetizer and 2 entrees. read more

The food was amazing and the ambiance was super cool. We had the sampler appetizers, fried pickles, fried, onion rings and mushrooms. I was pleasantly surprised the mushrooms weren't the typical button ones. The batter wasn't heavy and the sauces were house made and delicious. Hubby got the Guinness sliders and they were so good and the bread was nice and fresh. The house chips is what we picked as that side. We also ordered the fish and chips. These were so good! The breading wasn't heavy, had a really good flavor. Do yourself a favor and snatch some up! The server (Elaina L.) was fantastic! She greeted us, told us what they were out of, and when she took and brought out our order she waited the appropriate time to come check on us. Brought the hubby a fresh tea without skipping a beat. We will come back when we are in the area again! read more

Why flowers??? Ok. I love Copper Penny, and want it to be so much more. The staff there is good, and Sarah is amazing. But the place needs some help. The menus are worn out and items are crossed out with sharpies, and the chairs and many surfaces are worn. And the new owner has now added flowers to the food. It's an Irish pub. Why is there flowers in my food?????? And the "Irish items" on the menu are pretty limited. Did I mention, they put edible flowers in your food???? read more

I have a love of Irish pubs and bangers and mash, so I really wanted to like this place. Their bangers & mash wasn't horrible, but one banger was charred on one side and the presentation was horrible (bowl with two scoops of mash, the two bangers on each side and filled with non-descript brown gravy. Server wasn't very friendly but did have a lot of tables to cover. Not sure I'd ever go back based on this visit, but we were visiting from out of town. read more

Better than average Irish Pub; lively atmosphere, great house drinks snd a well-stocked bar, friendly staff - and did I mention the good bar?! The Lucky Shamrock was one of the best tequila mixed-drinks that I've ever had; my wife loved it too. She also enjoyed the Shamrock Shooter. Our server (Julie) was overworked, but just kept smiling! She was great! read more

Be ready to pay cover to get in. We were visiting from out of town and tried to take our kids for lunch but were stopped at the door to pay a cover charge per person. We chose not to pay an additional fee per person to patron this establishment. I imagine the food and drinks are probably good, but unfortunately we're not willing to pay extra to find out. read more

Stumbled in on a rainy day and got right in at the bar wanting a quick drink and snack. Inside was dark and moody like a true old bar should be. The bartender was super sweet, got us menus and took our drink order right away. We ordered mozzarella sticks, she told us unfortunately they were out but the fried cheese cruds were better anyway. We took her advice and she wasn't lying, they were great! Served with marinara, she also gave us jalapeno ranch and regular ranch, amazing! read more

Definitely stop in for a pint when you're in Hot Springs. We didn't order a meal, opting for beer and a soft pretzel. Best. Soft pretzel ever! And the Dubliner cheese dipping sauce was incredibly (don't forget the bacon bits)! Oh. And the beer was good too. As for service, friendly and professional. Thanks for a relaxing stop from walking around HS. read more

Incredibly slow service, I honest to god thought I could probably walk back there, learn the recipes, and do it myself. And probably for a better taste. How do you run out of ingredients when there's only 20 people in your store. You're not slammed, you're just busy for the first time. I went here two years ago and it was lowkey not that bad, good to know things have changed. Won't be coming back. Save your time and money. read more

I would give this place a 0, but that's not possible. The waiters are rude, and it took 2 hours for a group of 4 to get our food. We watched the manager walk inside with walmart bags because the kitchen ran out of ingredients. The restaurant wasn't even that busy, maybe 20 people in there. Another table paid for their food, and didn't get any change back. On top of all, the food was disgusting. Save your time, go somewhere else. read more

Only had drinks but great vibe and service. Live music sometimes too! Skye was great and gave us good recommendations for other local spots.

Great pub atmosphere, service was friendly but could use some help getting the order right the first time. Food wasn't hot and fresh but it was still good. read more

We stopped in the Copper Penny for a drink during our Thanksgiving Girls Trip. We were a party of 6 and Ashley immediately suggested some drinks to get the laughter started! Ashley was so fun. She attentively took care of our table and even let us borrow a phone charger. Ashley did a great! Job!! read more

The waitress was efficient but the kitchen sucked. After waiting 45 minutes for food we asked for status. They had not even started the food so we paid for drinks and got the hell out of there. A wasted hour. read more

Kelsey P was a fantastic waitress! Came on a Thursday evening with live music. We had the Rueben eggrolls with Russian dressing. I inhaled them before I could get a picture. I also had the corned beef and cabbage, straight up medallions of juicy meat. I already ate one before I remembered to snap a photo! read more

We loved the food and service! Everything was just really good comfort food. We will definitely come back.

The pretzel is LEGIT. Drinks were well priced. Hector is an excellent server. Ambiance is Irish themed.

We've been in several times and we are always very warmly welcomed! Every drink served and every dish prepared is made with all the fun and love you'd expect from a traditional Irish Pub! The bartenders, servers, chef, manager - all the staff - are amazing! It's definitely easily become our favorite place in Hot Springs! read more

This was the first bar we hit after driving in from Texas, and holy cow it was worth it! Friday night live music had covers and dang the BEST songs! Bar was full but the staff was very attentive and in great moods. We had so much fun we went back more nights. Prices were great, drinks and shots were awesome. The "Leg Spreader" probably the best mixed drink. Our server/bartender was cool as hell too. She had curly blondeish hair up in a pony on top. Sorry i forgot your name, but you're awesome! Thank y'all for showing us an awesome time! read more

Last stop for the night and we landed at the Copper Penny. Live music and cheap drinks are always a good sign. I was sad to learn that the kitchen had already closed but we enjoyed a paloma and beer and listened to a male / female music duo that were great. Table service was tough but grabbing drinks from the bar was pretty quick. read more

The waitresses we're as attentive as the could be because the kitchen could not get the food out. I don't know, if because it was the day after Thanksgiving, but the kitchen contained 3 20 somethings who had no idea how to produce orders. It was very obvious that the waitresses were embarrassed by this. If a manager was on duty, this lack of production is his/her fault! When you have waitresses hustling the dining room and waiting at the service window, that is simply unacceptable! If you are training these people, then be there, don't throw them in the deep end and expect them to swim. I felt very sorry for the wait staff as they were there to make tips and the kitchen issue was definitely costing them. After waiting an hour and forty-five minutes for our food, we walked out. I gave this 2 stars because the wait staff did what they could and I am hoping this is a one off situation, not the norm. Robert Irvine would not approve of how this well established business was run, today. read more

A lively pub! Also, one of the only places serving good food later. And they have live music on Saturday night! They have some good chicken wings. Stick with the Buffalo sauce though. That Jameson sauce was way too sweet. The fried pickles were also amazing. And very filling. The service was great, even when we came in 10 minutes before the kitchen closed they were happy to serve us. Also, a great Black and Tan! read more
