“My family and I have had the food from here before but it’s been awhile so we came back and we didn’t regret a thing. Every item we ordered had superb flavor. It was fresh. It was just outstanding and we will be returning and we look forward to trying other menu items as well.“

“This was my husband and I's first visit to Copper Barrel. We have been hearing great things about it but have never ventured out that way. We went ahead and made a reservation about 4 days before for 6:15 on a Friday. We arrived and the place was PACKED. I was really glad that we had a reservation. We were promptly seated and given menus. We ordered drinks, they took awhile to come but we didn't really mind and again, the place was packed so I'm sure they were a bit slammed. I ordered the shrimp tacos and they were really good. My husband had some sort of a brisket sandwich or something. The food was great. To drink I had a margarita. My husband had a couple of old fashions. He said the first one was not great and watered down, but the second one was much better. We also like that it was decently priced as well. We can't wait to come back!“

“The best Corned Beef around. Stopped in for a sandwich and all I can say is WOW! Added the homemade coleslaw and it was amazing! Great Views of the river abd sun was shining on the beautiful stained glass window accents. Service was great! Price was fair and we will return!“

“I've been here a handful of times.You could be one of two. Or its packed to the max. They have fun days like free bingo or karaoke. All of the Bartenders have been very attentive and very friendly. They have complimentary popcorn, with all of these flavors you can add to it. So thats a nice touch. My lemon drop martini, was perfect!Stop in for a drink, you will not be disappointed.“

“The first time I ended up at this place it was because I found it on a Google search when I was looking for some tacos close to my job.I'll be honest, when I saw that it was inside of a gas station, it felt a little sketchy. I'm so glad I tried it, though! Their tacos are great!! I've been here many times and the quality and flavor is always consistent.“

“Great good, great service. A very busy place.“

“Out group of Riders stoped at this place for breakfast yesterday. I only wish this place is closer to me. They have an excellent cook the breakfast he cooked for us was absolutely tasty. I recommend this place a lot. Will stop there soon again. Thank you.“

“Really cannot rate the food yet, as we just went there for some wine.This establishment serves whisky (bourbon, Scotch, Irish whisky, Japanese whisky, and Tennessee whisky) and wines.Wine tastings are available for about $20-$45. Membership not needed.The bartender, Ashley, was a fully-rated whisky sommelier, and was very knowledgeable about most of their 200-plus bottles.We will plan to host an event here in April and should have more info then.“

“What a great spot for good drinks, games, and the occasional live music! They don’t serve food but have complimentary pretzels as well as some packaged snacks for purchase. (I highly recommend the bags of flavored pretzels for purchase- yum!) Added bonus- the owners are practically always there behind the bar and are very kind and helpful, which is especially good for someone like me who doesn’t know what kind of beer I should be ordering!“

“Nice little dive bar. Found it as we messed up the train schedule coming back from Medinah and enjoyed some beer and pool. Close to the casino so we walked over there for a bit then headed back to the bar for a last round before catching the right train back home. Definitely an old building which is cool. If I was ever near there again I would stop in.“

“Lots of potential here. Cozy with a large outdoor area including seating with fire pits. Wood is $15 if you want a fire. Clean restrooms and friendly service are found here along with newer but tight indoor seating area. Will go back as this was our first visit. Live guitar player/singer outside named Josh that sounded very good but froze his fingers off... Tap Room, give him some heat! Met friendly and fun people so looking forward to stopping in again. It's located right across from Klein's on Plank Road.“

“We dined in tonight and it was busy and took a little while to get menus and drinks but it was totally worth the wait. The food was AMAZING along w the margaritas flight. There was only 2 servers tonight you could tell they were working so hard and so fast to accommodate everyone. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Just recently discovered this South Elgin gem. Been coming here after High school football games. Staff is always welcoming and friendly. There menu is very good, haven't had a bad meal yet. Even the regulars are welcoming. Plenty of TV's to catch a game, just learned they have live music too on the weekends. Come and enjoy. You won't be disappointed.“
