Bartenders not that great. Also they charged $3.25 for buffalo sauce.

We got food for takeout - smash burger and chicken tenders. The only good thing about the food was that they gave a ton of fries (soggy but probably because it was takeout) and the portion was overall big. However, the burger did not taste good and the meat quality seemed poor. The chicken tenders were actually just huge chicken cutlets and tasted bland. The restaurant provided a bunch of sauces which was nice but still didn’t help the food. I’ve been to Copper before and the service when you dine in/drink is very good. I would recommend sticking to their drinks and passing on the food.

Went there Saturday evening of Cubs Brewers final playoff game, sat outside, lots of fun people watching and listening to the sparring fans. The falafel snack plate was good, the copper cubano sandwich even better. Server was Francesca, very efficient and friendly, did a nice job checking in with us, especially since food took a long time from our order to its table arrival. Shuttles were taking people to the game but we just had a two minute walk to our next destination at the Fiserv Forum.

Cheese curds were good. The poutine my husband got was delicious and SO flavorful. The smash burger I got had no flavor. The sandwich tasted like tomato, bun and onion. I tried the meat patty by itself, and it was bland. Worst burger ive ever had out. Tasted like it just wasn't seasoned. Also service was very slow. It didn't seem crazy busy either. We likely won't return.

A $5 Makers Mark old fashioned during happy hour? Not only cheap but it was strong and good. We also had fries w peri peri. They were excellent

This place was awesome, but I’d love to see their poutine come back (then I’d give it 5 stars)

The service is excellent and overall the restaurant is very nice. However, they’ve updated the menu recently and I’m very disappointed.

PLEASE BRING BACK THE REGULAR POUTINE!

It’s one of the only things that makes me happy. 😊

We sat there for 84 minutes. Our server Kaleigh J came to our table 2 times. Once to sit us down and take our first drink order. And another to get our food order. She never came back to ask us how we are doing or if we wanted more drinks.
Great atmosphere and great food. But the service was the worst I have ever experienced. Truly disappointed….

I stopped by here for some food over the weekend while I was in Milwaukee for the Triathlon Nationals. I found the actual space to be very nice and took a spot at the bar. Trying to order food and drinks turned out to be an unexpected chore because apparently they were out of most things on the menu. But after taking the initial order for my spouse and I that would be the last time the bartender would acknowledge me until I had to put in way more effort than necessary wave him down for the check after sitting there for quite a while after finishing. I guess after finishing my first drink as well as the initial glass of water I got when sitting down I was just supposed to be thirsty because the bartender would spend tons of time with the patrons on one side of me then zip past me to help the others on the other side skipping me entirely. In fact the group that got there half an hour after me were able to get to their third round of drinks while I was apparently only allowed the one. The food I had was good (what I eventually could order because of said lack of inventory) and the actual bar is nice but the service was abysmal. If I find myself in the Brew City again I have no problem skipping Copper and hitting one of the others places on that street that I had much better experiences at.

The warm welcome I needed to Milwaukee!

After having to unexpectedly travel from NC due to a family emergency, I was on the hunt for some great food after a long 12 hours of hospital life. Upon arrival, I was greeted by two kind servers who answered a couple questions I had about the menu. This fabulous encountered continued on through my evening as I sat at the bar for some fantastic poutine fries (this takes me back to my Buffalo days…)

All in all, I can’t recommend this place more. The food was everything I needed and the incredible staff did wonders to my battered soul.

Hoping (planning) to find myself there again!

Excellent atmosphere, service, cleanliness, food. Had the cheese curds- excellent with the vodka sauce to dip in. Smash burger was excellent as well.
