4. Coopers Seafood House

I have to get my Coopers "fix" once a month! Coopers has by far the best seafood in town! I don't even like oysters but I gladly eat them here. The food is always cooked to perfection. They are so consistent . The appetizers are so varied and all so good that it is very difficult to decide, but try them all you won't be dissappointed. Everything on the menu is worth trying for that matter but my favorite is the crab bisque! The quality and taste are simply unsurpassed. The restaurant in Scranton has the most ambiance but I visit both of them all simply for the great food. If you like seafood this place will quickly become you favorite restaurant. I have a girlfriend that surprised her husband for his birthday by driving him to Scranton from Philly just so they could go to Cooper's for his bday dinner! That's how good this place is!

My wife and I travel from Canada to Florida each year and Cooper's is our favorite stop. The crab bisque, and coconut shrimp are our favorite appetizers and for a entree we always try something new. We have never been disappointed. The atmosphere and staff are top notch! 5 stars. Can't wait to go back. W&B

We recently had a small wedding catered at Cooper's. Arranging it was made easy through Karen, Mary, and the staff. The food was outstanding and Camille and Lori, who worked at the event, were absolutely wonderful. The out-of- town guests were very impressed and the local guests got what they expected from Cooper's- perfection! Thank you all.

I love coopers. Go in for lunch at least 3 times a week! The dock and lighthouse are amazing as well. They bring in a nice college crowd that is always fun. 5 out of 5.

The best food I have had in some time. I will make the drive from Philly just to eat here! What a great place! :-)

WOW You can not miss this place. When we pulled into the parking lot we were greeted to a sight like no other. A huge life sized pirate ship adorned with pirates and a attacking octopus! What a entrance. To the left of the ship sits a lighthouse that is just being build. We were told it will house a gift shop on the first floor and a second floor bar! To the right of the ship is the dock a crab shack atmosphere with a more relaxed vibe and separate menu! Looked like a great place to spend a night! We headed in to find there would be a small wait to get a table. They gave us our number and told us we could wait at the ship or the old bar. We opted for the old bar and were sent down the hall. This was amazing on either side of the long hallway were old photos of Scranton's past. When we made it to the old room we snuggled up to the bar and ordered a beer. What kind the bartender asks? Well what do you have I reply. . . oh about 300 bottles and 34 taps!! WOW I never seen so much beer in my life!! I opted for a frambois (bartender recommended) and was it good! After a short 10 min wait we were buzzed and headed to our table. This place is HUGE! We ate in a nice booth in the WHALE ROOM. This room had a huge whale right in the center of the room. The other room is know as the Train room and has a large train that runs around the room through dioramas. The food here was even better than the decor! We started with some alligator bites, blue crab dip and bayou shrimp to split for appetizers then Lobster dinner, steak, Chicken Parm and Almond Talapia is what we ordered and everything was wonderful. Our server was one of the nicest servers I have ever had. Thank you coopers for a great experience we will definitely return!

WOW! What a place. The food is out of this world and the service is great!! We stop here at least once a week weather to grab a brew (over 300) in the ship, A nice family dinner in the whale room of just to relax under the stars at the outside dock! If you are in the area Coopers is a must see.

This used to be a very good seafood venue however when I last ate here in 2003 the service was extremely indifferent. I ordered the Dungeness Crab which when served had a very strong odor. I complained to the waitress who after consulting with the kitchen informed me that crab always had that odor (untrue as I've eaten Dungeness Crab regularly in the Seattle area). When I persisted with the complaint it took two attempts to get some sort of refund for the meal and it was only very grudgingly given leading to a very unsatisfactory meal experience.

My family and I were at Coopers 3 times, and my husband and I are coming back a fourth for our 13 year anniversary. We love it here - excellent food and service.
