Copp Brewery & Winery

"We visited Copp Brewery for dinner, and, of course, to try the beers. We enjoyed the food and the beers were great, but the way things operate at this establishment has a lot to be desired. We entered as a party of two, and when two people go out for dinner and drinks, the expectation is to spend time with the other person. We spent maybe half our time at Copp doing that, and the rest of the time, one of us was at the table and the other waiting in line. When we walked in, we were seated in a booth and noticed the signs to order at the bar. There were no beer menus on the table, so I asked an employee for one, who told me I could get one at the bar. I saw a long line at the bar, so I looked for a QR code, but didn't see one anywhere. I checked the website to see if they showed what was on tap. No menu of any sort there either. So I got in line at the bar. I made friends here, as the people in line were very cordial. In fact, the topic of discussion was how the lady tending bar was taking care of the seated people at the bar and the line we were in was her last priority. How frustrating for me and everyone in line. All I wanted was a beer menu, too. I finally got the menu, took it to our table to decide what to order, and then had to go back to the same line again to order. It was longer than before. I started to regret coming here and politely waited to order our beers. I was smart this time and asked for a food menu too, because I only saw beers listed on the menu I got the first time. I brought the beers back to the table and they were very good. We picked our meals, both salads and since those got ordered at the bar too, I went back for my third time now in the even-longer line. Another wait. The bartender entered my order into their system and handed me a pager with instructions to go to another counter to pick up the food when the pager went off. I had to ask if that counter would also have a long line and I just got a dirty look in response. I'm just a customer, after-all and I've been away from our table more than I've been there at this place. My tip for anyone visiting Copp on a weekend night is to come in a large enough group and take turns who gets stuck waiting in line. For two people, it simply doesn't work so well"

"Had a great time. The new menu is awesome. Very affordable and will probably be coming back twice a week. The menu is very affordable and food is very good. I really like the NEW concept. Best of luck!!!"

"Went on a Google search. Well worth the trip. Deb was our hostess. Friendly outgoing staff period. The only thing I'll tell you is the menu on Google is none of what's there. Wife had an onion dip with bread slices. It was phenomenal along with the BLT I had."

"Fantastic place!! The building is perfect for a winery & brewery. Debbie was our server and she is a British gem!! Lovely gal that knows the food, drinks and history of the place. Try the Flatbread and the pastrami.. yum! We will be back and everyone that visits Crystal River should check this place out."

"Fantastic Food and Drinks! Super fun and friendly atmosphere! You just feel welcome when you walk in. It's cozy and everyone was happy and inviting. We're not locals and everyone was asking how our manatee trip was and even gave us recommendations. The menu has something for everyone. We had the lobster mac & cheese and ceviche wish was perfection. THIS IS THE GO TO SPOT FOR FOOD AND DRINKS."
