    Why have I driven by this fantastic eatery so many times without stopping! This will be our new go to for eating out. My mom, sister and I wanted to have a nice brunch together and decided to stop here as it is near where we both live. The inside was very inviting with plenty of booths and tables, sparkling clean environment and cute décor. There was a great variety to select from on the menu. I settled on a standard cheeseburger with an upgrade to sweet potato fries. My sister had a double cheeseburger with a cup of soup and mom had chicken tenders with a salad and soup. Our burgers were juicy and fresh. The buns were soft and delicious. The salad was crisp and fresh. The soups were to die for! The best tomato soup I ever tasted...thanks mom for letting me try it. Our server was knowledgeable, efficient and and very kind. The prices are fair. There is plenty of parking spaces. The outside doesn't scream, this place is great but once you step inside you will not be disappointed. *********UPDATE: WARNING PRICING misleading ********---- Mom and I went there again (5.30.25) for brunch. I was surprised when we received our bill as my $13.00 biscuit/gravy/egg plate cost $14.30 and mom's 1/2 banana split waffle, for $11.00 ended up being billed at $12.30 I asked why the misbilling and they said it was because the eggs cost so much. OK, note to self NEVER order an egg related plate from them again! Eggs have gone down in prices. I said OK for my order that came with eggs but what about the increase in mom's waffle with ice cream and they said it was because eggs were used to make the waffle batter - I just said..."Oh...My...God" - I'll keep this review at 5 stars as, so far, the food is very good but this is major B.S. We were going to come here more often but because of this petty pricing, I think we'll stick with our other favorites that lay it on the line more realistically when it comes to pricing.

    2 piece broasted chicken meal with green beans and a biscuit. Plus a side of sweet potato fries.

    My family's after church breakfast spot. Everything always tastes homemade and fresh. I tried something off the lunch menu today. Broasted chicken (2 pieces), green beans, sweet potato fries and a biscuit. Everything was wonderful. The staff is always amazing as well. They make their own jam ... yum! It seems as though they have many loyal customers as I have noticed familiar faces each time.

    Clean feeling and looking establishment. Nice service. We've been there once before, and I recall liking the chicken tenders, but I don't remember what else stood out. This time I took my mom because we were craving broasted chicken and saw it on the menu. We tried their French onion soup, which was awesome, and their Reuben, which we loved. We paid for the premium side of mac & cheese and really liked that it had a lot of flavor. The french fries were good. Unfortunately, the broasted chicken did not seem like broasted chicken and the breast was extremely dry. I should've gotten the chicken tenders which I know to be good. Regardless, we enjoy this place.

    Oh my God, we just tried this place! The food was amazing. I had the so lock. It was incredible. Definitely recommend and will be back on a positive Note our server Jordan was very prompt courteous and was at the table multiple times to make sure we had a fantastic breakfast!

    I've heard of the Copper Kettle for some time, but I never knew where it was before. When I decided to navigate there, I figured out why: it's hard to find. It's located in a strip mall that starts on Hall Road, but this part is set back several hundred feet, so you'd never notice it. Thank you, navigator app. The decor is inviting, like a country restaurant. I love breakfast, and I probably would have been okay with a standard omelet. But, this is so much more than a run-of-the-mill breakfast place. Take your time looking through the menu: there are so many great ways to go. Don't care for breakfast? My wife didn't, so she got a wonderful Strawberry Almondo salad, with chargrilled chicken, strawberries, almonds, and feta cheese. She reluctantly shared one bite before she ate every scrap. There are 19 different sandwiches and melts on the menu, from pulled pork to a gyro to grilled cheese, plus several different kinds of burgers. They have entrées, like Atlantic salmon, and even a stirfry. Are you sure this is a brunch place? Oh, yeah. They definitely are. There are all the staples for those who like a traditional breakfast. My daughter got a massive ham and cheese omelet, with fries (since you get a choice of potato). The fries were nice and crispy. But, since you get a choice of potato here, do yourself a favor and get the hash browns. The hash browns are a perfect golden color, but I have seen that before. Other places serve up hashbrowns that look great, but they end up being soggy or dried up. Here, the chef somehow managed to make it crispy on the surface, just the right consistency underneath, and not greasy at all. The seasoning is settled, but it tasted so good that I didn't need to add ketchup, which is what I normally do. These are the perfect hashbrowns. I spent so much time talking about the hashbrowns that you might think the main dish was nothing special. Not at all. There are six different creative spins on an Eggs Benedict here, including brisket or smoked salmon instead of ham. I went for the crab cake, which had a generous amount of lump crab, and two English muffin halves with a perfectly fried egg on top. It was so good that I savored every bite. And, with the flawless hashbrowns to go with it, my brunch took a while to finish. The only minor downside here is that there is no alcohol on the menu. I would've loved to have a bloody Mary with my amazing breakfast. But, when the food is this good, I don't mind. The service was also excellent. We were told about one of the specials of the day when we sat down: a fried calamari starter. Calamari at a brunch place? after seeing the rest of the amazing offerings here, I am no longer surprised. This is my new favorite brunch spot.

    Brisket Benedict

    Tried this place today based on the Yelp reviews. It's a large restaurant, clean, BIG menu with specials. Breakfast is served all day. Our server was great, and the food was amazing. I had the brisket Benny, delicious and the red potatoes were out of this world. My mom had an omelette, she loved it and they had homemade jam for the bread. Nice size portions, will be back for sure.

    Had a nice breakfast this morning with my wife. We ordered the Awesome Oatmeal and the Nashville Benny. See photos. Karrie was all over it on keeping the coffee cups full. My wife and I double dosed my coffee with sweetener by mistake and Jordan fixed me up! My poached eggs were done medium (perfect) but my wife's were done hard . Her oatmeal was done well, but she forgot to tell them no brown sugar so it was too sweet for her to finish. We don't know if when it's made it's already mixed in. Others might like it that way. We tend to go easy on sugar. Coffee is pretty good too. The cups need to be bleached out. See pic. The hash browns were thin and veneer like and made the whole presentation on the plate looked sloppy. The meal itself was made really good with the hollandaise sauce mixing with the smoky sauce. All in all a pretty tasty meal.

    First visit we did appetizers for lunch and it was great - the pickles, ravioli, fries and tenders…read morewere all very good. The lemon drop martini was DELISH. Made well! The second time we went it was sooo slow. It took at least 15 min to get menus once we were seated and took about 45 min to get the food once the server came back to take our orders, which also took a while. It was 2pm on a Friday, and other than what looked like a wrapping up work lunch (they had checks and boxes for leftovers when we were seated) there were only 2 tables of guests, so the delay was not due to it being busy. That day I got a side salad and a chicken wrap. The salad was very good aside from coming with an item I asked to take off. I did ask for no tomato, as you can see in the pic, they were added. I didnt get pictures of the wrap, but it was very meh. I would not order it again. I did not like the BBQ sauce that was used. Very overly sweet and not a good flavor. I also found there to not be a ton of chicken, it was like a second salad... TONS of romaine. I believe the wrap was called Lakehouse Chicken Wrap. Side note. We were seated near open windows and the construction was. Abit loud, which was ignorable, however! there was a phone on the server station that was ringing CONSTANTLY. I have no clue what that was about, but it was so annoying. We did alert a server but nothing was done about it. Overall, I would go back but maybe just for apps and drinks. The drinks was well made and they had a decent beer selection as well. The look of the bar is nice and I hope they can stay open longer than some of the other places that have been there!

Your service is terrible, your food is mediocre at best, and the entire place feels poorly run. We came in with a party of 12... and you just lost all 12 of us as customers. The waitress was completely ineffective. Orders were missed, timing was all over the place, and communication was nonexistent. Some of our group finished eating before one person even got their food -- that's unacceptable. Let's talk about the food and presentation: * Fry baskets? Just awkward and unnecessary. * Pretzel with beer cheese -- the pretzel was literally sitting in the cheese, which had a skin on it... so it was either microwaved or sitting way too long. * Beer wasn't cold -- just "kind of" cold. Big difference. * Beer selection is weak and oddly repetitive (how many reds do you need?). * If I had to guess, your beer lines haven't been cleaned in a long time. The burger tasted like a frozen patty -- nothing special at all. The "hot honey fish"? It tasted like straight-up bottled sauce -- like Asian Zing from Buffalo Wild Wings. Not good, not creative. We were told a manager would come by -- never happened. If someone did and that was your manager, you've got a bigger problem. Operationally, this place is a mess: * 3 hostesses for a restaurant this size? Why not have food runners instead? * We didn't receive a significant portion of what we ordered * The dining area is dirty * The parking lot is in rough shape At some point, you've got to be honest with yourselves.

I feel a similar sense of guilt about how I've treated this restaurant. I've been here since Covid, but I should've updated my review. While I didn't like how they handled the pandemic (Faye acted like there was no pandemic), the food has always been amazing. And, it still is. I'm not happy that they don't have sandwiches anymore, unless you count hamburgers. But, I understand businesses need to simplify to stay profitable. I don't think lack of sandwiches is going to be a problem if they keep making the burgers this good. The beefiness is profound, and it shows that they are using fresh, high-quality meat. The mushroom and Swiss burger has a stack of sautéed mushrooms and a generous amount of Swiss. I really appreciate the waitress asking me first if I wanted mayo on it... mayo would've taken away from the robust flavors. I actually kept going "mm-mm" after each bite. And, look at the ridiculous amount of fries in my picture. These are seriously good fries. I do want to order the fish and chips next time. My daughter got them, and I'm glad she was willing to share. The whitefish has a sweetness you only get from fresh fish. And, the breading is crispy, and not the least bit greasy. My wife said she wasn't hungry (though she did have a bite of everything we ordered), so she ordered the cream of broccoli soup. It was wonderfully flavorful. As with everything else we ordered today, we would be happy to order it again. The service was excellent, and I don't mind the no-frills setting. There's no way you'd expect an old school bar to have food this good. Coming here during happy hour also helped. A strong Moscow Mule cost $10, and my 22 ounce Guinness only cost $8. Sorry, Your Mothers. I definitely won't neglect you for so long next time.
