Copper Shaker is such a fun bar. I've gone here quite a few times later at night for drinks but just recently ate here and their food is phenomenal. Their truffle fries are the best I've ever had. They're made with waffle fries and not skimpy on the truffle sauce or cheese. I might be addicted to these. The copper chicken is also tasty and easy to share with others. As for cocktails? I don't think you can go wrong with anything. I love their dirty martinis, their espresso martinis are some of the best in St Pete, and also the unusual suspects is very easy to drink and refreshing. Lots of my friends like the old fashions here. Bartenders are always attentive and make good conversation, especially Rick! read more

Cool little spot. Stopped by for a late night snack. The wings were really good. Service was quick and helped explain the cider beers they had. It was a Wednesday night so the crowd was minimal. Overall I would come back. Try them out if you're in town. read more

Stopped in to meet up with some friends for dinner on Saturday night. The dining and bar area were both busy. 3 of my friends and I ordered 5 skewers to split and I love that they gave us 6 skewers. My favorite skewers were the chicken and the shrimp. Service was good and appreciated that she could split the skewers 4 ways. Seems to be a great spot for groups and birthdays. I found street parking nearby. read more

Haven't been to Copper Shaker in a while but hit it up on a Saturday night for some birthday celebrations. They were able to get our party a table quickly and our server was very friendly and attentive. Everyone enjoyed their drinks and the tuna and chicken were yummy. The peanut dip with the chicken may be a bit on the spicy side for some but I think it added a nice kick to the chicken. read more

Awesome drinks. Almost exactly like my fav drink that I've had before and been searching for again... Honey Hab - spicy, fruity, eggy. Everything I'm looking for. Service was great bc he tasted my drink and adjusted to make sure it was just right. I appreciated that perfectionist behavior and don't mind the wait. Music and decor was what I like read more

The Copper Shaker is a nicely appointed establishment with cozy, upscale decor in the heart of St Pete. The staff is friendly and took the time to discuss origins of the business and offered drink selections. We rolled into the joint with our "Cowboy" attire for a nearby event and no one batted an eye. We then belly'd up to the barstool and enjoyed Old Fashioned's; one from the "Happy Hour" option and the other from their menu selections. Their happy hour bourbon option was Horse Soldier and not bad. The menu selection bourbon was a "Whistle Pig - Piggyback" and was smoked from a piece of oak barrel. This was the added touch that I had not yet witnessed and was needless to say, pleased. I would enjoy returning, although not likely in my cowboy attire, and having another "Sippy-Sip" from the well. Quite Recommended! read more

Copper Shaker is your D'yer Maker for cocktail satisfaction, having drinkie drinks made from mixologists in a butcher's smock like they're going to slaughter their enemies in the back behind the bathroom with the handicapable friendly ramp that leads to it. We went here two nights in a row for after-dinner drinks because we loved their cocktails and spirit selection, which is stacked from spirit shelving that needs to be accessed with a ladder to reach all of them. Their drinks and experience at the bar allowed us to embrace synergy. I have to say that again... Synergy. The 20/20 comprised tanteo jalapeño tequila, Salerno blood orange, carrot, lime, orange, and agave. The Bee Sneeze was made with Ford's gin, lemon, honey, rosemary, and apricot preserves. The Bon Vivant with Russell's Reserve, Cinzano 1757, and Averna bitters certainly gave me joy, while the Honey Hab with honey habanero Michters Rye, lemon, blackberry, and egg whites made me want to gyrate across the dining area while yearning for bacon and mac 'n cheese despite being full from dinner. Additionally, I enjoyed the last of an older bottle of Hedonism blended scotch by Compass Box that had a nice vanilla finish despite the water woodiness of the initial sip. We enjoyed the ambiance and energy as we imbibed our cocktails. We were surrounded by cool speakeasy accessories, such as the copper distilling tank next to barrels in the front corner of the bar at the storefront windows. The main dining area comprised high-top tables and booth seating, with black-painted ceilings that held glitzy chandeliers, dark wooden paneling and floors, and gray walls. read more

Copper Shaker Crushes It! Killer cocktails, amazing food, and top-tier service--Copper Shaker nails it across the board. The drinks are creative, balanced, and seriously delicious. The food? Next-level. Every bite was packed with flavor and perfectly paired with our cocktails. The staff is awesome, especially Chrissy and Tony!! --super friendly, quick, and really know their stuff. You can tell they love what they do, and it makes the whole vibe even better. Whether you're out for a date night or just grabbing drinks with friends, Copper Shaker is a must. Can't wait to go back! read more

Food was alright, drinks were really overpriced. The main issue was the fact that the service was really slow. The environment was amazing, but overall wasn't a fan of the place. Won't be coming back. It took over 30 minutes to get cashed out. For the pricing, I'd expect the service to be better. read more

Went to Copper Shaker for a night out, and even though it was extremely crowded, we had the best food, the best drinks, and the best time. It can be hard to get waited on when it's that busy, but they made it happen, and everything was worth it. You have to try the tacos, truffle fries, and street corn tostada--some of the best food I've ever had. Can't wait to go back! read more

We were in town for business and stopped in here on a rainy Monday night. So glad we did! The food was outstanding, you have to try the fondue...SO much food! It's not a big place, very moody and exactly what I look for in a good bar. A co-worker let is slip out it was her birthday- and the server brought out sparklers and champagne. It made her day so special despite being on a work trip! read more

Not a local, but this place was recommended to us to try. The place was packed due to a concert that was going on near by, so service was super slow. Our waitress was very friendly though and apologetic on the slow drinks and food service. We sat outside and was not able to to the bar for service even though our waitress was slammed. This was too bad because I would have been able to get more drinks without this restriction. I ordered the Older Fashioned - nothing special. It was Tuesday, so I got their chicken quesadilla from their special menu. I don't know if it was good because I was so hungry by the time I got it (took over 45 min to receive), or if it really was good. But there definitely wasn't enough pico or sauce given to compliment the quesadilla itself. I did ask for more, but never got it. read more

The vibe here is quite upscale but still gets packed on Friday and Saturday nights. They have great cocktails with quality ingredients, like Russell's Reserve 10 year bourbon and Whistle Pig rye whiskey. I'm usually getting the Mr. Tea cocktail with their black tea infused Michter's bourbon. This time, I tried their tacos for Taco Tuesday. I also wasn't expecting much, but these blew me away. These are the best tacos I've had in quite a while. They've got a special on taco Tuesday; 3 tacos for $14, and you can pick whichever combination of tacos you want. I got the shrimp, pork, and chicken.  Each fantastic. Will definitely be back again for tacos. read more

In my opinion, probably some of the best craft cocktails in Downtown St Pete ! Bartenders are very talented

My friends and I stopped in for a drink after dinner. The service was fast and for a mid week night it was actually quite packed. The drink was a good drink and I loved their inventive cocktails. We would likely come back for a night out as it had a pub feel with a mixology spirit to the place. Very conveniently located by restaurants in the area. read more

I was in fl visiting a friend and we went here. Drinks were okay. This random girl named amber walked by us on the street, then when my friends and I went inside to pay our tab the security guy told us that this random girl got us kicked out of the bar because her husband runs lights next door at a club called the estate and she doesn't like us personally. It was sad to see the only black girl in the entire place getting kicked from the property and humiliated for trying to pay for her drink. Copper shaker; this came off as extremely racist and weird, especially when you consider the girl calling the shots doesn't even work on the property. Was one of the most memorable experiences on my vacation. (Which is a bad thing, maybe try harder to be better) read more

They make a mean dirty martini. This is one of my boss' favorite places for a drink and I can see why. The bartenders seem to really know their drinks. Apparently there are like a million types of old fashioneds you can order. My boss got a smoked old fashioned and my husband got just a regular old fashioned and both seemed to really enjoy it. I ordered a dirty martini and the bartender asked how dirty I wanted it. I actually haven't been asked this in a long time. I got it medium and I found it both strong and delicious. I'm glad that the bar isn't so loud that you can't hear the people you are with. It was also surprisingly busy on a Thursday night at 6:30 p.m. We got the last two seats at the bar. This is definitely a fun place to check out if you're in the area. It's right next to the Sundial parking so you can easily park there, walk downstairs and grab a drink. read more

I've been here before for appetizers and cocktails and it was always good but today we had a full dinner and were pretty disappointed. We had the spicy tuna Bowl as an appetizer. There were four good-sized slices of seared ahi tuna which was a good portion, but the Japanese pickles were strange and overall the dish was flavorless. It was missing sweetness and the tanginess of pickled cucumbers or onions. There were shishito peppers but nothing was spicy in the dish so I'm not sure where the name even came from. The prime rib double dip was ok. It was full of fatty, chewy pieces of meat and was topped with very crunchy, salty pickled carrots and celery. A very strange choice to put in a sandwich. The bo ssam pork shoulder dish was deconstructed lettuce wraps. I love pork shoulder, but this was tough and extra fatty because they didn't cook it long enough. Again it came with the same strange overly salty pickled carrots and celery. We would not get any of our dishes again and I would wait until the next menu change before we return. On the positive side, our server was very friendly and they have a great daily happy hour which includes horse soldier old fashioneds for $8. read more

We spent the afternoon in St Pete as we had an appointment at specialty shop in Bay Walk. After that we walked around and sat outside at the 201 Club for a drink and then onto the Copper Shaker. Not having any expectations but we heard their cocktails are supposed to be very good. We got there during happy hour about 40 minutes before they would serve dinner. Ordered 2 items off the happy hour food menu; the smoked fish board and the flat bread margarita. Both were amazing and took us by surprise on how good it was. The smoke fish board had smoked tuna, smoked salmon and smoked Mahi fish spread. Also included various crackers and peppers. The flat bread had a Smokey taste to it that really made the flavor stand out. Living 30 miles away we don't make it to St Pete that often but for sure 100% we will be back. Now to the liquor. I don't recall what my wife had and I didn't partake in any cocktails but the liquor selection is unparalleled in west Florida. I am a Whistle Pig Rye fan and they had every Whistle Pig available including Boss Hog which is $495 a bottle at Total Wine. It was $120 for a 1.5 oz pour, but I have never seen it or any Whistle Pig above the 12 year at a bar. Super impressive. read more

Moody, industrial, speakeasy vibes and good drinks. DJ was keeping the beats going and does take requests. I would give 5 stars, but a waitress (not even ours) approached our table and started yelling at us. She was such a snot. It was probably 10pm and so we weren't eating, only drinking, but we were drinking a lot! It was my friend's birthday and I was the lightweight of the group and only had two drinks. Everyone else had several drinks, some specialty, very expensive drinks! She came over and said she had people that wanted to sit at our table and unless we gave her $200 more (our table was full of drinks, both currently being consumed and empty as well as multiple framed pictures we also bought from the restaurant) so we asked if there was a table minimum. She said there wasn't, but that we had been hogging the table for almost 2 hours and other people wanted to sit. I'm the meek friend that was about to get up and leave, but my tiny, loud friend defended our right to be at the table and then spoke to our actual waitress, who was actually apologizing for the other rude waitress. It was so odd and rude. My husband alone spent $100 on drinks there so I'm sure we weren't being even unintentionally thoughtless guests. It really left a bad taste in our mouths, but thankfully didn't ruin my friend's birthday. read more

Hit this place pre and post Janus show. We picked it randomly and it happened to be Happy Hour. Two people got takes on an old fashioned, which they really liked. I got a Guinness for $4, which.. nice. Service was great during Happy Hour. Not so great later. In fairness, it was past 10pm on a weeknight. Ambience was super chill and everything was clean and inviting. read more

Came here to have happy hour with a group of people. This bar/restaurant has been good at accommodating for larger groups. They had a decent amount of seating inside and the bathroom quality was average. The bar service was decent. I started off with a wine and their White Castle croquettes. It didn't taste like white castle, burgers, but was delicious regardless. That burratini salad was excellent! Overall, I had a pretty good experience here. read more

Asked a bartender for a water last night and he rudely told me to go over to the water station and get it myself. When I turned around and asked the other nice bartender for a water who had previously gotten me one the rude bartender took my not even half drunken alcoholic beverage and dumped it out. A. I'm in the service industry, and I know it takes 5 seconds to use the soda gun and fill me up a water, B. It takes nothing at all to be nice, the bartender was rude off the bat and dumping out my drink that I paid for was totally uncalled for. I asked for a manager last night and the bartender told me one wasn't available. I am extremely disappointed. read more

My review is based on one drink. One drink, that was recommended by our server, different and had ingredients I was looking for to begin with. Scotch and gin? The same drink? Never seen that before and it was delicious! Way to go for a place to get creative with their cocktails in a time where everyone is a home bartender! read more
