Party of 6; we all enjoyed our experience at The Cooperage. Notably the wings were outstanding; artichoke dip, scrumptious; burrata, very sharable. Moving onto the entrees, the fried chicken sandwich was amazing, the seabass super fresh. 4 of us had salads (Brown Derby, steak salad, chinese chicken salad). All were healthy and huge portions. Service was awesome, though I'd like so see our dishes/glasses cleared sooner (we eventually stacked everything up in the middle of the table to get the hint).

Service was outstanding, and space is pleasant. Food was uneven. Good salad and dessert, but the fish tacos and chicken sandwich were both very average.
