It’s always a great space. I just felt the food portion was much smaller than usual. Im not sure if it’s something I’ve never noticed but my pork belly skillet only had one small slab in the skillet… Either the slabs are bigger normally or they give you more than one because I’ve never noticed it being so small/minimal. Left wanting more than I was given and it was disappointing.

Four adults and a baby for a late brunch on a busy Sunday. The prom belly skillet was delicious with the most amazing potatoes. The avocado toast with salmon sounds simple but was loaded with flavor and the creamiest scrambled eggs. The biscuits and gravy with chicken was some of the best chicken I’ve had! The bloody hell drink was a little blah (v peppery) but came with a mini donut cupcake that made it worthwhile. Next time, I’ll just get the cupcake, but there will definitely be a next time!

This was our first time at this restaurant and we drove to Mpls from the southern suburbs. They were able to accommodate our large party of 13 for brunch, including an infant. Staff was friendly. August (Auggie) was a fantastic server. Food was beautifully presented. It tasted decent, but not something I would drive far to get. And, parking was challenging on a late Sunday morning. The restaurant was clean, and I loved the vibe. We did not order anything from the bakery. Overall, it was a good restaurant to try!

My new favorite brunch place. The beef & egg tasted incredible and was a generous portion. It tasted fresh, homemade and the flavors melted together in a delicious way. Sitting at the bar was fun and the bartender was very accommodating, friendly and attentive. I’d go here again and try to sit at the bar. I plan to be back! Highly recommend.

The experience we had at The Copper Hen, unfortunately, fell flat. Service was not good. Took a while for the server to acknowledge we were there, did not follow up in timely manners throughout the dining experience & did not have an understanding of the menu. It was not busy during the time we dined. Drinks were good, food was good but luke warm at best & service was poor. I had higher expectations. Perhaps the restaurant was having an off night?

Had a lovely evening with friends. Everyone in our group of 6 had something different and two shareable appetizers. Everyone cleaned their plate but I couldn’t finish my pot pie. It was just so large and hearty! I also had the spicy borscht soup which had just the right amount of heat and was very tasty. The only thing that wasn’t great was the asparagus appetizer. They were large pieces that were a bit mealie and slightly cold. Nice ambiance and the acoustics were good enough you didn’t have to speak up to have a convo. Oh, my wife adored her GF cupcake! They did have quite a few GF options on the menu! We plan to go again and try more dishes.
