The Take

Order the ribeye or simple grilled protein with verifiable sides at Copper Shaker. The Slop Score lands at 41 because a solid local craft bar with 700-plus spirits still defaults to fryer shortcuts on the gastropub menu.

Truffle fries and bang bang cauliflower sit right there as red flags. Late-night eats and tequila Tuesdays push the place toward convenience over care.

The Verdict

Copper Shaker delivers decent drinks but the kitchen plays it safe with classic bar traps. Ask for olive oil or butter on proteins and skip the fryer basket entirely.

Order the ribeye and move on. Slop Score: 41.
