Copper Kettle Restaurant

We are weekly customers and every week the food is good and the owners are constantly striving how to prepare their meals better each week. I am saying that as it seems some on this board may have not been pleased. They always try to innovate to keep meals interesting and to accommodate their customers diets. Family owned business so give them a try, and if you did before, come back again and you'll love it. Come in and relax. more

This is a great place to take your family! It's always on my list when we are on the road and coming through Ellensburg. I was sad that it was closed for a while but now that it's reopened it's still got that hometown, Ellensburg fell that we love so much! more

I graduated from central a few years back, but make my way through there about twice a year. I was sad when I saw that the Copper Kettle was closed before. I am excited that it is back and it still has the e-burg town feel with great people and great food. It is definitely on my itinerary every time I go through town. more

Well after my last attempt I thought I would try again since there are so many positive reviews (from like 3 people, again and again and again). I did not have the server that I was afraid to say "boo" to but this chick was awful. No refills on my drink, no other tables in the restaurant, four of us smashed into this awkward table. Yes the HEIGHT is nice but since all the tables are are against one wall there is room only for 3 people unless you SMASH someone into one wall, square table. Again the food was ok, I would have probably gone back but because of the bickering on this site from (apparently the staff) I will not try again. more

As an employee at the Copper Kettle I can assure you that only person has commented on your restaurant that works at the Copper Kettle. The other people must be real reviews. I know the person who wrote on on your page but it was based on their experience there and that's how they felt. It's not a personal issue or anything like that. I didn't say I would never go back. Sometimes people have off days and that's fine. If you're employees on Wing Central could quit posting comments on our page too that would be great. We never wanted this to be an issue so sorry if it caused some but you also have other employees commenting on our page too. So this is to them as well. Please stop. We hope this all stops because we don't really think it was all necessary. We encourage people to express their opinions so we know what we can work on. Thanks for all your critiques and your positive comments. We really appreciate your opinions and now we know what we need to work on. But again Wing Central employees we would appreciate it if you guys would quit posting on our page too seeing as how we are trying to restart a business after a tough year of being closed due to losing our lease. Thanks again everyone! more

I ate there about a week or so ago and thought everything there was great. The tables are tall yes but the chairs are right at your butt height to sit. My grandmother who is about 80 years old can sit in them easier than her chair at home. She really likes them and said they were very easy to get in and out of since you don't have so far to go like with the booth seats. It's a great college atmosphere and they've got great little pictures on the walls. Personally I really liked the decorations in there. It's simple but very classy. Food was great as always. Nothing has changed since the old location food wise. They've got a great selection of menu items. My grandmother and I really enjoy going there together more

Good: decor was new, just opened- PERIOD. Bad: food is all fried greasy, great for a bowling ally, server seamed scared to wait on tables, uncomfortable tall over sized tables (too big for 2 way too small for 4) dead quiet except for the noise from the kitchen. Out of several items on the menu. I never knew tuna came that color.. Improvements: turn some background music on, replace the server, Don't have things on the menu that you are unable to prepare. different tables for 4 people.. Other: I dined there three weeks ago!. more

Slow service.......ok food for a 50's diner, constantly out of several items, server was nice but seamed scared the whole time, uncomfortable tall tables, dead quiet restaurant aside from the noise from the kitchen. Only thing going for them is that they are close to the college. And yes I ate there three weeks ago. 1-5 scale food 2 - average greasy spoon service 2- average eberg atmosphere - 1 NEW but poorly designed. more

This is by far one of my favorite places to eat in Eburg! Not only is the food incredible (I honestly think they might have the best steak in the entire town.... and I'm pretty picky about my steak) but the decor and staff are great as well. Very attentive and warm. Every time I go there it feels like I am sitting down to eat with my family! Also, their Thursday appetizer and drink specials can't be beat. Who doesn’t love $1.50 beer and half price appetizers?!?! If you've never been before, you should definitely check this place out, especially for you CWU students since they have a $2 discount on everything. more

I loved the Copper Kettle! I went there just last night and they had a great special. I agree with positive reviews on this one. Not what you would expect from a bowling alley that's for sure. I used to eat at the old place but havent a chance to go to the new until last night. I really liked it. Food was very good-def not bowling alley food. Just like the old copper kettle! Fantastic! Kudos to the chef! more

Just one more thing. If you think you can't get great service and food from a Bowling Center, then you are wrong. This place is fantastic! Many other bowling centers throughout the world have restaurants and bars inside their establishments. Just like the Copper Kettle and the Rodeo Bowl. So take my advice and try it out first before you make any kind of judgements on the place! Thanks! more

I was just wondering when the last tims Sean ate at the Copper Kettle. If it hasn't been for about 6 years, then I understand what he's talking about. But as for your "menu items that would have been boring in 1975" comment, campus u-tote em hasnt changed their menu since around that time. And I know this for a fact seeing as my relatives have lived in Ellensubrg for quite some time. But if you haven't visited the Copper Kettle in it's new location, don't judge before you've eaten there. Like the saying goes "don't judge a book by it's cover" or in this case a restaurant by it's location because I have eaten at some hole-in-the-wall places that have turned out to be much better than the chain restaurants. So please, let me inform you that it is not polite to judge. more

And if you are looking to take advantage of the Copper Kettle's amazing food and service, you'll want to make your way to the bowling alley. Where the Copper Kettle is located. In the bowling alley. Anyone who says you can't find amazing food and service in a bowling alley is just being apsurd. more

I don't know what Sean G. is talking about. That's is the most upsurd thing I've ever heard in my life. The serive I had was fantastic and so was the food! I know that it has had a new owner in the past 5 years but it's def somewhere I would eat at every day. They have great speacials and especially for students. You guys can get $2 off with your student IDs! its def not as greasy at wing central. and not to put them down at all but the last time i went there i waited 25 min for my food and when i got it it was cold. So Sean G. Thanks for recommending pretty much the worst places in town. If you guys are smart you'll want to go to Copper Kettle. This place is AMAZING! Food, service, decor, atmosphere, and prices. All wonderful! more

I have to assume the following reviewer has subsided on only denny's food to this point in their life. The copper kettle is the most stereo-typical greasy spoon diner imaginable. If you are looking for a restaurant that is only open until mid-afternoon, gives inattentaive service and features a menu that would have been boring in 1975, then this is your place. Otherwise, you should check out one of Eville's more inventive restaurants, such as Wing Central, Los Cabos, the Roadhouse Grill or campus u-tote-em. more

The service is great, the food is awsome, and the prices are good. there is nothing bad about this place. I love going there with my family. They have wonderful people who wait on you, they make you feel special. It is kind of small so depending on when you go there could be a wait but not normally. This is a great place to go with your family. more
