What a great restaurant! It was recommended by a friend, so we stopped by for lunch. We were greeted warmly and seated promptly. Our server quickly brought menus and took our drink order. Even though the restaurant was very busy, our food order was taken right away, and our meals arrived surprisingly fast. We both ordered salads, and they were outstanding. The restaurant itself is beautiful and very clean, including the restrooms. We were especially impressed by the ambiance and the warm, inviting atmosphere. Highly recommend The Copperfield! read more

Updating my earlier review. I continue to believe high opinion is the cover field. Very solid restaurant hidden away and a neighborhood of Mendota Heights. There's something for everyone on the menu. The food is quite good. I do wish there were more vegetarian protein options on the farmers market, but otherwise I'm really enjoyed my meal. It is a great place for a group. We had somewhere between 15 and 20 people, and they were really willing to accommodate. So appreciated their willingness to make a special meal for a friend who is they're on a layover between flights. read more

Great meeting place for gatherings with friends and family. Variety of food choices. Excellent service. Sangria was good, dont care for the garnish of a bright red maraschino cherry, but otherwise good. Those always seem cheap to me. I like my luxardo or amarena cherries in drinks. Spicy tuna salad sandwich was good. I substituted rye bread. read more

The Copperfield - Caramel Roll Pancakes Biscuits & Gravy - Diners Near Me - Mendota Heights, Minnesota

Adorable and insta-worthy ambiance! Came in for dinner with a friend and had a great time! Hoping to stop by again in late spring for brunch on their patio. Ambiance 5/5 Food 5/5 Service 5/5 Value 4/5 I had the Southwest Steak Salad and would gladly order it again next time. The mixed greens were fresh and crispy and the dressing was light and citrus-forward. I was eyeing the caramel rolls for dessert, but ran out of stomach space. Reservations recommended. Parking was free, easy and plentiful. read more

Update 12/29: still 5-stars. Hurricane shrimp are not to be missed. Service has anyways been spot on. The red sangria is a favorite, not too sweet and goes down easy. Glasses are reasonable priced at $9. Chicken and wild rice soup is always hot and delicious. Chicken Marsala is also highly recommended. Ordered to go to bring home after our meal and it was well packaged and still warm upon arrival. Reservations recommended. Lot can get full during peak times but there is overflow. Location is on the ground floor of the 55+ apartment complex. 11/25: Dined here for dinner recently and they won me over. The sangria is one of the best I've had. Chicken with wild rice soup is also delicious. Every entree ordered at our table was thoroughly enjoyed and the service was spot on. Love that they participate in Resy and we will be back soon (and often!). read more

The Copperfield - Blueberry Mint Lemonade - Diners Near Me - Mendota Heights, Minnesota

This restaurant was such a pleasant surprise! It was much bigger than it looked from the outside - very modern and beautiful as well. Service was pretty quick on a weekday morning. Didn't need a reservation and got seated right away. I loved everything we ordered - Mexican Hash (without chorizo), apple pancakes, and fruit crepes. We also got hash browns on the side but later realized we forgot that the Mexican Hash already has hash browns! (Sleep deprived mom brain definitely missed that). Regardless, everything was sooo tasty! The pancakes and Mexican Hash were my favorite! We got the Hash with a biscuit and it had so much flavor and was so unique. Crispy on the outside but soft and chewy on the inside. Everything had so much flavor. Just loved it. On top of that, I went here to meet a mom friend so we came with our kids and the service was just lovely. I feel like the customers around us seemed a little judgemental about having kids in the space but the servers definitely didn't mind and were interacting with our kids and us just fine. Will definitely be back and need to bring my husband here next time! read more

The Copperfield - Diners Near Me - Mendota Heights, Minnesota

A delightful spot for brunch! The restaurant itself was way larger than I thought it would be, a nice sized bar, plenty of seats for large and small groups as well as a great outdoor patio. I was happy when the server told me I could order a single pancake so I did that as well as the eggs Benedict. The ham on the eggs Benedict was a bit fatty which is why I knocked off a star. The pancake came with a sweet cinnamon butter, which was good, but I personally would've preferred plain butter since it leaned a little sweet for me. My friend got the Loaded Scrambler which was the table favorite, I tried 1 bite and loved it! read more

Weekday breakfast with my boyfriend. This place is fairly close to where I live and it's been on my list for a while. I actually was originally planning to go to it for dinner but we were looking for a breakfast spot and this turned up on my list!! We sat outside and it was nice and sunny. For those who get hot easily it might be better to sit inside on super sunny days because the patio did get toasty while we sat and enjoyed our meal, but we liked it. I loved their breakfast selection. I don't usually like breakfast that much but their breakfast bowl was fantastic! My boyfriend was also very happy with his breakfast. Our server was very nice and accommodating to our requests. I really like the feel of this place and the food was so good I can't wait to come back and try lunch or dinner! read more

My first visit here won't be my last. What I wanted was a simple Eggs Benedict for brunch in the middle of some Sunday errands. Although the patio was full when I arrived, there were enough tables inside to find me a spot even though I was unannounced during peak hours. It's a large place that's clean and well-staffed. My server was very conscious of wait times; she warned me that the kitchen might be a little slow. But they weren't; my order of Eggs Benedict with hash browns got to me quickly. And the eggs were good; I particulalry liked the ham, which was cooked perfectly and there was a lot of it. I didn't like the hash browns very much, I must say. But is that maybe because hash browns are honestly usually kind of super dumb? Like, here is some leftover residue from the sides of the grill, we put it on a plate so that you can buy it and eat it. Sorry, tangent, my point is that there was nothing particularly good about those hash browns. But it's a nice suburban restaurant with a bar, and also with a compelling coffee/bakery counter where they even sell macarons. It looks like you can think of them as just a quick-stop coffee shop, so keep that in mind. Seems like there are good reasons for you to check them out, and I'll definitely return. read more

I was underwhelmed by my brunch experience at The Copperfield. Despite a reservation, the host was unable to help me find my group. The service was exceptionally slow, with minimal check ins and a long wait time from finishing to paying the bill. The food itself was good. Avocado toast was about as basic as it can be- avocado on a thin slice of sourdough. The scrambled eggs and hash browns were overdone. The ambiance is nice and the patio is lovely. Perhaps I caught this spot on a bad day, I'll give it another try as menu looked promising. read more

We pop in frequently for brunch and lunch! Great spot off Dodd. Parking is very busy during peak hours so a heads up if you're heading over. The patio is very cute and dog friendly which is a big bonus for us. The menu is fresh, exciting and yummy. Their coffee however was atrocious. My brother in law ordered an espresso that had legitimate sludge in it at the bottom...not sure what happened there. Service is always quick and friendly and they do a good job of checking on us during the meal. read more

The Copperfield - Classic Eggs Benedict - Diners Near Me - Mendota Heights, Minnesota

I had stopped going to The Copperfield because the service was not the greatest. I returned yesterday for breakfast with a friend who had never been. Well here's how it went: We ordered the food came and the waitress didn't stop by once to see how our meal was. My eggs were runny and I had to get her attention in order to ask her to please get me eggs over medium. I received the eggs and she didn't come to the table to follow up. I needed water and I had to call to another waitress and asked her if she could get me water. The young lady was polite however not following up with the customer is not a good thing. The ambiance is never the problem it is the service. read more

The hostess short older woman with thick Black glasses couldn't find my reservation and was fairly rude! It took 15 minutes to get my glass of wine which is Not Acceptable! The waitress had way too much many tables and was nice but disorganized! The wood was good, but not great. The atmosphere was nice but a bit too loud! read more

Went here for a business lunch, and was glad I had made a reservation so we were seated at a nice booth in the center of the restaurant. This place is lovely inside - a large dining room with high ceilings and lots of natural light pouring in. Our server was polite and able to tell us about some of the favorites items on the breakfast and lunch menu. I ordered the veggie bowl with quinoa and beans and eggs from the breakfast menu, which was delicious. My colleague ordered the turkey and cranberry sandwich and he said it was amazing - it looked so good. Ample parking in a couple of lots outside, super easy and accessible location off the freeway. Solid food, good portions, fairly priced. read more

Our go to this restaurant when we return from Florida. Christian is one of the best service persons, bar tenders in the industry. He is a joy to see when we walk in the door. The food is always excellent and consistent. Service is great. I laughed when I read the reviewer, MR. who wrote two reviews in a week about the service. Then writes another in 2026 about "stop going" to the restaurants. I always read the reviews of restaurants I frequent, when I see three poor reviews about a restaurant from the same person I just disregard them. Looking forward to speeding at least an evening a week out on the patio having a great meal at my favorite place. read more

Moldy strawberries in the fruit cup, yuck. Avocado toast was soaking wet with rubbery egg on top. Chicken sandwich was good but waffle fries were so under cooked they were white and ice cold. Service was excellent but food was really bad. Will not go back. read more

Ambience was great. The place had lists of windows with bright wood finishes and wasn't too loud. I came here with my cousin in-law. He had the walleye sandwich and had the Reuben We both had waffle fries with our sandwich. My Reuben was great!! The rye bread was nicely toasted and and not soggy. The thousand island dressing was the right amount. The pastrami and cheese were well portioned and tasty. My cousins in-law inhaled his sandwich and said it was great. The service was great as well so nothing negative to say about this place!! read more

Been here a few times for brunch with friends and family. The food is amazing and well worth the price. We've always had great service as well. I dont know if its just the timing but the rssturant is always packed for brunch, but we've never been here for lunch or dinner to compare experiences. Despite the wait, its always well worth it. We have never made reservations and have only come on Sunday mornings. The wait is never terrible. Maybe 10-15 minutes. I wish they had a bigger waiting area, but I will try to make reservations next time we go. We will definitely be back! read more

My wife and I will not be going back anytime soon. This restaurant has recently added multiple junk fees to their bills ("service fee," "credit card fee"), only one of which is disclosed on the menu prior to order. This is on top of their frankly already high prices. The food is fine, but nothing particularly special. Their espresso martini uses baileys instead of a proper coffee liqueur and they don't sufficiently strain out the ice chips when pouring. read more

* In the quest for a Saturday morning brunch spot to wow my out of town friends, I stumbled upon Copperfield cafe in my internet search. Initial green flag was the ability to make reservations -ideal for busy weekends- but reviews from friends endorsing its cozy ambiance and timeless menu drew me in. There was plenty of seating and the space was bustling with happy families and friends. I for one became even happier upon receiving my delicious Mexican hash breakfast bowl with a savory biscuit on the side. My fellow diners enjoyed the All American bowl. The bakery items also looked scrumptious, but I tragically left no room after my feast. read more
