Cooper's Seafood House

Great food and very friendly staff. Can’t wait to go back!
Hello Michelle, We appreciate your kind words! Looking forward to your next visit, and thank you for being our customer. Sincerely, Paul Cooper
Fantastic!! Food was amazing and so was the service. Mya was awesome! 🤩

Mary our server was fantastic! She helped us choose the best entrée for each of us. The salmon was cooked perfectly. The cheesy dill haddock was amazing, so unique, it was creamy, flaky and delicious
Hi Kari, We're glad you enjoyed your meals and your server Mary's recommendations. Mary was delighted to hear what you said about her service. Your compliments on the salmon and cheesy dill haddock are much appreciated! Thank you so much for being a customer of Coopers!! Sincerely, Paul Cooper

Five stars for Nicole at the front desk. Went in with my wife and two young kids, like we do every Wednesday. We sat for a good 20min with no waiter/waitress or drinks. Kids started getting very irritated, as were my wife and I. We decided to just leave and go elsewhere. Nicole stopped us at the door and went above and beyond to reseat us and get us food right away. It was some of the best customer service I've ever had. She really made sure our experience was great from then on and made our night. Thanks again!
Dear Dan, We're glad to hear that Nicole was able to turn your experience around. We apologize for the initial wait and appreciate your patience. Thank you for your feedback and thank you for being a loyal customer of Coopers. Sincerely, Paul Cooper
Wonderful, I feel like every person that is there is friendly and hospitable
Website reservation was quick and easy. Waiting to hear back regarding our Easter Bunny brunch reservation.
The food was amazing as always!!! We come here often and have never once had a complaint about our meal or drinks. Maya was an awesome waitress, very on top of her game and great with suggesting new stuff!

Had a great dinner last night. Everything was excellent - the Guinness onion soup, fish and chips, and key lime pie. A special shout out to Adrienne our server! She made our experience even more memorable.
Good morning Jay, So glad you enjoyed your meal and Adrienne's service! We'll pass your compliments to her. Thanks for the review! Hope to serve you well in 2025. Sincerely, Paul Cooper
MARY WAS AMAZING! Best waitress I’ve had at a restaurant in a long time. Super friendly and helped me decide what to get since it was my first time here. Coopers has DELICIOUS fish tacos! As good as the ones I get in Maryland. Will be returning.

Adrienne was our waitress and was so kind and helpful! She was very attentive throughout dinner and always kept our drinks filled! She was very kind and a great server! Definitely the best Coopers experience we’ve had and we've been coming for years!
Dear Madi We're delighted to hear about your positive experience with your server Adrienne. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and I will be sure to let Adrienne know how pleased you were with her service. Very kind regards, Paul Cooper

Best place for great seafood. Atmosphere is quirky but charming.
Glad you enjoyed our seafood and unique atmosphere! Thanks for the positive feedback.
We were not impressed at all, overpriced, and underwhelming. The steaks were over cooked and tough. The only good item was the crab Rangoon dip. I spent $200 plus and was not impressed at all will not return.
Food was amazing and the service from Victoria at the Bar was excellent! Always a great experience at Cooper's!

It was an iconic place for the Office so I went there, Pretty good sea food but I loved the office mini store inside of it
Hello FRitz, Glad you enjoyed our seafood and the office gift shop located inside the restaurant. Thanks for visiting! Please stop in again whenever you are passing through Scranton. Sincerely, Paul Cooper

In from out of town. It’s obvious no one from Scranton knows good seafood.
Sorry to hear about your experience. We value your feedback and will strive to improve.

Mary was an amazing server! Friendly and quickly handled all of our requests
We're glad you enjoyed ****'s service! Your positive feedback is appreciated.

This place is great on a spring-summer-fall when you can sit outside. There are neat things like an overhead train for the kids. The place is a little out dated but the service is always nice. Definitely a place to go if you are in Wilkes Barre.
We appreciate your feedback and are glad you enjoy our outdoor seating and train feature. We're always striving to improve, so your comments about our decor are noted.

Very disappointed by the low quality of the food. It's not that it's disgusting or gone bad, it's just on the low end of ingredient selection and preparation... and way overpriced for what it is! For such prices you should expect much better food. Impressive building with many rooms and a ton of decorations... all over the place. Don't expect any quality, it's a basic family restaurant with the service you would expect from such a place. I was misled by the many praising reviews... ouch. The gift shop didn't disappoint, though!
We appreciate your feedback on our food quality and pricing. We're glad you enjoyed our gift shop and ambiance, and we'll take your comments into consideration to improve our dining experience.

My wife and I came up to Montage Mountain for WMMR's Cardboard Classic, so I looked up some places to eat in Scranton ahead of time. Cooper's stuck out immediately and the menu had alot of tasty options. We ordered the New Englans clam chowder and the crab/cheese topped pretzel for apps. The soup was some of the best I've had and the pretzel was also very good. For our entrees, my wife got the ribeye steak with shrimp and I had the pot roast and perogie combo. Her steak was cooked perfect and the butter sauce on her shrimp was great. My entree was also delicious, all the food was on point and really impressed me. We will definitely be making another trip up here just to come to Cooper's. Shout out to our waitress Kristall too, she was very attentive and pleasant. Always kept my drinks coming when she noticed I was getting low, always appreciated.
Thank you for your detailed review and kind words about our food and service. We're delighted to hear you enjoyed your visit and look forward to welcoming you back to Cooper's.
My family and I had the BEST experience at Cooper’s Seafood House! The customer service is top notch. Our waitress Abby was very attentive and Nicole made sure we were well taken care of. The restaurant has so many fun themed rooms and each one of them has so many interesting things to look at. The whale room has old toys and games all over the walls, and it brought back a lot of memories for the Gen X members of the fam! The food was excellent! Each of us got completely different things, including the lobster, clams, scallops, shrimp and pasta with garlic chicken. Usually the land lovers have to suffer through a seafood restaurant-but not here!!! Overall, I can honestly say that this was one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to in terms of the food, service and overall experience. A+ We’ll be back again!
Dear Leana, Wow!! Thank you for that 5 star review!! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed your experience at Cooper's Seafood House! Nicole and Abby were thrilled to hear what you said about their attentiveness. to your family. We look forward to serving you and your family again soon. Very kind regards, Paul Cooper
Fair. The one email I used from your site required a phone number, but it wouldn’t accept it because it ran the numbers together. There was no space bar or period button. I also called and left a voicemail. I didn’t get to talk to a person. I love Cooper’s and have been going to the Breakfast Buffet for a few years now.

Happened to find this place on The American Roadside Attraction App.. so happy we did.. we spent hours looking around their mini museum and eating..service and food was very good and they do so many fundraising for the community.. if in the area it's a must visit
We're glad you enjoyed your visit and appreciated our community efforts. Thank you for the positive feedback!

Will NEVER forget the time I got a severe case of food poisoning that started at the restaurant shortly after eating my seafood platter. Likely the weirdly shriveled up mussels and dried out shrimp that the waitress just shrugged off. This after a 1.5 hr wait for a table on a busy Saturday night. Management blew me off when I spoke to them. So poorly handled in every way. I missed work for a couple days and my parents had to drive up and take care of me. Such a bad experience that I've never gone to a seafood restaurant that far inland again.
Dear M L , We're truly sorry to hear about your experience. We take food safety very seriously and will investigate this matter. Your feedback is appreciated. Sincerely, Paul Cooper

I've eaten here a few times in my work travels. Sadly, this has been my worst experience to date. Food was way overcooked. I won't send food back, so I ate only a few bites. I informed my server about it and told her no hard feelings. In my past experience the food has been excellent. Just an off night I hope. Will definitely come back for another round next time I'm in Scranton.
Dear Jim, We're sorry to hear about your recent experience. I hope you informed your server and had them remove the item from your check. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to serving you better next time. Once again you have my sincere apology for the inconvenience that we caused you. Sincerely, Paul Cooper
we ordered the crabby pretzel and the menu said cheddar and crabmeat... it came loaded with spinach and parsley !!! my boyfriend was very disappointed as he does not like spinach and parsley !!! I think your menu should have stated that ! HE will never send food back so we ordered the reg. pretzel with cheddar and the waitress said it comes with spinach and parsley in the cheese as well !Iate the pretzel my boyfriend did not and he is the one that really wanted it !!!!
Dear Sandy, We apologize for the confusion regarding the ingredients in our crabby pretzel. We appreciate your feedback and will making our menu description more detailed. Sorry for the inconvenience that this caused you. I hope your informed your server and had the item removed from your check. Sincerely, Paul Cooper
Pleasant enough atmosphere but definitely needs updating, including the menu! Not at all a large selection and needs some new choices! Friendly staff and the food that is available is tasty!
Hi Noreen, Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your suggestions and glad to hear you enjoyed our food and staff! Respectfully, paul Cooper

I found Cooper's Seafood House in Scranton! I just got an appetizer, but it was such a bright spot in the middle of dark times! It was a museum, a restaurant, and a roadside attraction all in one! I took so many pix and enjoyed exploring the whole place! It was such a fun place that I am so happy I found! They even had a The Office themed gift shop! And I love everything nautical! Crystal, my server, was awesome. The appetizer was huge and I gave half of it to my son when I got home. The service was great, I absolutely appreciated this very bright spot it a month full of stress. I am so happy I found you!
We're delighted you enjoyed your visit and our nautical theme! It's great to hear that Crystal provided excellent service and you loved our appetizer. Thank you for sharing your experience!
Amazing
