Cooperage Inn

One of my favorite L.I. restaurants! Good food, good for gluten free, great service!!! Jumbo stuffed shrimp...Pineapple Napoleon...Rice pudding in my photos.

Had rehearsal dinner here last Friday night. We had a group of 60 people. It worked out very well. We had 2 adjoining rooms, where people could mingle before the sit-down meal. At their recommendation, we ran a bar tab instead of the per person plan, and this was a wise approach, as it saved money.. I wanted to encourage wine and beer, so they had wine/beer menu on the tables for people to choose from. Just a few ordered cocktails. My only recommendation would be to put the appetizers on the table earlier, while people were mingling and drinking. It did take a while for any food to come out, but not feeling the pressure to sit down and eat was pleasant. Lots of time to meet and greet. The prix fixe menu was very good, with lots of options. They also accommodated any dietary preferences (Vegan/Vaggie/Gluten free). They did not rush us at all. Everyone had a great time and enjoyed the food. I would recommend this place just for a quiet dinner or for a large group gathering.
