Copper John’s NYC Midtown Pub & Kitchen Review

UPDATE: Copper John’s is now closed and has been replaced by Bartley Dunne’s. We will do a follow up post in the future.

While Copper John’s may look like any other pub from the outside, the food and drinks absolutely exceeded expectations. It has a cozy feel, friendly staff, and sports on the TVs.

And with the location close to both Central Park and Times Square, it’s a great pub and restaurant if you’re just visiting or staying in the Midtown area.

I highly recommend you check it out (Google Maps listing here), but here’s our full review if you need any more convincing. 👇

Copper John’s Interior & Staff

Copper John’s is under new ownership and their cocktails are made by a mixologist who has worked all over the world and mixed drinks at The Dead Rabbit.

The staff was kind, the service was fast, and it wasn’t too crowded.

They didn’t have the best TV set up ever, but there are about 5-7 total TVs throughout.

Copper John’s Food

We had Chicken Katsu Fries and their Pot Pie. Both exceeded expectations!

The Chicken Katsu Fries were by far the better of the two. Some of the best fries I’ve had at a bar or pub. Try them out!

Copper John’s Cocktails & Drinks

We had a tasty cocktail and a nice draft cider from Austin Downeast.

It’s under new ownership and their cocktails are made by a mixologist who has worked all over the world and used to mix drinks at The Dead Rabbit, an NYC staple. Be sure to try a cocktail!

I truly Austin’s cider, they are always a solid option. Especially on draft!
