“Good food but overpriced”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 31, 2012

My husband and I chose the Copper Kettle for our anniversary, since we always drive by but had never been. A neighbor highly recommended it. We sat in the front dining room, at the window. It was nice to be able to see outside. The atmosphere was fine, and the wait staff friendly.
I had a steak and my husband had seafood...we were both surprised by how small his serving was for the price. He said it was delicious, but would never order it again. Not sure why it would cost so much more.
Overall, a pleasant night out and we would definitely return.

“Elegant and nice”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 24, 2012

the atmosphere is very nice and clean. The food is good, the staff nice.A bit on the pricey side but for a special dress up date this is the place, especially in the evening.

“Do not order the filet”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 22, 2012

or maybe my friend just got a bad one - but I was treating friends to dinner. All was excellent except the filet - small - it didn't even look like a filet - and we should have sent it back then and there. Definitely not worth a filet price. My friend tasted her husband's flat iron steak, which was much larger, thicker and tastier and when she mentioned afterward that the filet was not as good as the flat iron was better, the waitress just commented "oh, you prefer flat iron over filet". NO! Just that the filet was sub par. No apology or free dessert offered. Oh well.

“PRIME RIB!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 26, 2012

We are new to the Chambersburg area and drove past the Copper Kettle on our way home from another restaurant in the area. We love the fact that this isn't a "Chain" restaurant. Every once in a while, it is good to try a place where you don't know what to expect. We loved the feel of dining in a historic home. The food (my husband and I both had the Prime Rib) was delicious. We also had the roumaki appetizer and the scallops were plump, delicious, and perfectly cooked. And for dessert? A Lemon/Walnut torte! We were only slightly disappointed that the baking wasn't done on the premisis... then I could have gotten a recipie! Though I was a little worried because the Dessert Tray thing can seem dated, the selection we chose was so amazing and we may not have tried it if we didn't see it first. We will be back!

“Dependable”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 11, 2012

Ate at a booth in the bar area and service and food were great, as usual. But as time went on, the customers got louder and louder. That's what happens at a bar. It was not objectionable. Prices were not cheap, but not out of line. Their turtle soup is excellent.
