    This was my third time dinning at Copper Kettle. The food is good, however there is a seasoning used in the crab dip and on the prime rib that I don't care for. I am not sure what the seasoning is, I wish I knew. As for the crab dip, I think it could use a little Old Bay to kick the flavor up, personally it seem bland with a weird seasoning flavor. I realize seasoning and flavor can be personal preference. As someone who dines out frequently, I do believe pricing to be just a little high especially comparing portion sizes to other restaurants. At $34.95 I would expect at least a 16 oz. prime rib, not 12 oz. I will probably try Copper Kettle again at some point, but I would definitely make other menu choices and there is nothing making me need to go back. Would I recommend Copper Kettle; yes, but...with some explaining.

    They are proud of their prime rib, having had made it there for 67 years. It was okay but I've had much better. But the add-on sauteed mushrooms had a very strong balsamic vinaigrette taste. They are weak on gluten-free choices and advice.

    Out of baked potatoes @6:30pm on a Monday night due to quality control issues. Salad dressings hit and miss on availability. Downstairs is dark and sterile in design. Food was ok, but we’ve had better. Four meals with dessert just over $200+ tip

    We ordered our steak medium rare, it came out med-med well, salmon was fishy. The Berger looked good and the crab dip was excellent. Our server was excellent. Not a bad place just expense for the quality of food.

    As we had reservations, we were seated right away. Server greeted us pretty quickly; I ordered a cabernet. The server did not give me a preference as to which one - the one she brought was pretty horrid. After that one, she offered another section, "the nicer one." 2 of us at the table ordered prime rib, prepared medium. We received two different levels of doneness, definite inconsistencies. While the server was quick at the beginning of our experience, about halfway through the meal, it was lacking. Drinks went empty, we had to flag her down to get the dessert tray, and then find her again to pay the bill. I would try the Copper Kettle again, but the inconsistencies in food and service were disappointing.

    Had a reservation at 4:00. Restaurant opened late. Hostess acted like she didn't want us in there unless we had a reservation. Took awhile to get a server and she came unprepared to even take a drink order. Appetizers were good but took a long time to get. Food temperature was okay but could have been hotter. Meals took a long time to get. My prime rib was stone cold. Asked to have it warmed up and the server said ahe would put it in the microwave for 30 seconds. I thought she was joking. She wasn't. Ended up eating a cold fatty prime rib. Way more fat than I have seen on most prime rib. Tasted okay. Would have been better hot. Wife's Alfredo sauce was separating. Her meal was also cold. I have experience separating into the sauce when reheated. Kinda thinking it was leftover. Took Dessert to go only to fund the portions way smaller than the display ones. Have always enjoyed Copper Kettle in the past. Very disappointing experience this time. Hope it's just a fluke. Based on this visit, we're in no hurry to return.

    Took a party of seven and three of us had prime rib - two were very fatty unchewable steaks and very disappointing - Other meals were very good and we did not complain, but server should have seen these uneaten steaks - At $300+ I expected a good meal - Thank You

    There was a nice atmosphere walking into the restaurant. Luke who was my waiter was very attentive and looked like he knows what he’s doing around the restaurant! My lobster bisque was very rich in flavor and creamy, my pilaf rice was well seasoned and not over cooked along with my nicely fried fries. To end it off, my chicken Chesapeake was the star of the show with its juiciness and being accompanied with creamy béchamel. Everything complimented each other. The food overall was phenomenal, the service was on point. From start to finish, my expectations were met, maybe even surpassed as this was my first dining experience! Totally recommend for anyone visiting Chambersburg and for the locals as well!

    I am not sure what the bartenders name was, as she was not wearing a name tag, but she was amazing... She was taking care of the people at the bar, making drinks for the tickets, bar-backing (glassware, ice etc.) AND waiting on our bar perimeter table, all with a smile! Very hard working and did a great job all around. This was for dinner service on 7/8.

    The recently completed renovation @ CK has proved to be a game changer. Preceding the reno, my wife and I dined there twice and each time we were more than a little disappointed with the quality of the food preparation. So on this first post-reno outing to celebrate our 38th anniversary, we arrived with a "three strikes and out" mentality, but we left as fans! In just about every way, CK has become a serious rival with Bistro 711 as Cburg's king of high-end dining! Well done (pun intended)!

    Copper Kettle is a wonderful place to dine. Although indoor seating is available, outside dinning is very pleasant. Dewey and Jen were our waiters and did an outstanding job, with Dewey providing drinks and Jen taking our food order! Both were quite pleasant and very professional. Both food and drink prices were very reasonable. Well worth our time to enjoy a wonderful evening of food, drinks and excellent service. Will definitely be returning to Copper Kettle in the future.
