1.5 Copan 1.5 star review:
Was delighted when Copan first opened as I live in the area and enjoy eating out and socialising. First time there was very impressed the decor was really cool and the food was amazing, really enjoyed. Went many times after to enjoy the 5euro cocktail menu which is great, also brought friends loads of times and recommended to many. Last time me and my boyfriend went for dinner was hugely disappointed and surprised at how downhill the food has gone, my pasta dish was mainly oil and the vegetables very withered and limp, my boyfriends dish, Shepards pie, was more like soup with tiny bits of mince floating around and the potato was very waxy. Did not enjoy one bit, but as we enjoy the cocktails there frequently chose not to say anything but never eat there again. On a Thursday night recently they had a ladies night where all ladies received 4 coupons for cocktails. I told a group of friends who were excited about the night. As I work late Thursday's they headed in before me, after work I met for boyfriend and one of my friends boyfriends and went for a bite to eat then headed up to Copan to meet the rest of the group. We were refused entry! The explanation being not tonight! All 3 of us were dressed casual, neat and tidy, were completely sober and very shocked. Very politely we asked to see the manager, a man (possibly not the manager) came out and when we asked for an explanation, he backed the door man saying they didn't have to give one. Not only was I offended it was embarrassing, as I had inviting my friends to meet me there, they left quiet annoyed at the situation after I rang to inform them we had been refused entry. I think it is a disgrace that respectable adults would be treated in such a manner, especially when I have given this establishment so much custom. I would encourage people to not bother giving their hard earned money for awful food to a business that looks down on you. I and anyone I know will ever return to Copan.

I had a meal here yesterday, Sunday and was pretty disappointed to say the least.
I popped in with my girlfriend for the second half of the United game, and there was a good few patron's in the bar. I ordered a steak sambo and she had an all day breakfast with two drinks. The match had ended and the bar had quietened down and one of the staff that wasn't or server noticed that we still had nothing in front of us, our drinks had not arrived a half hour later, so she enquired with the kitchen. It appeared our docket had not gone through and they offered to comp our drinks. That was understandable but it appeared they never informed the kitchen and we had to wait a further 40 minutes. The food when it came was basic, the steak was not a nice cut, was half fat. I ordered wedges and got fries, the bread was a chiabatta with a large amount of onion presumably to make up for the lack of meat, the salad was pretty thin and there was not much of it. My partner's toast was burnt.
They did comp the meal when I enquired if someone had informed the kitchen the first time to put a rush on and they admitted they hadn't. We were told the manager was aware of it but we didn't see him. I wouldn't have found the experience too bad except when we we leaving one of the servers remarked sarcastically that she supposed we would not be back. I live in Rathmines, sadly I will, but not for food.
A nice spot for a few cocktails after work. Beautiful decor and I've been looking forward to eating here but sadly for food, over-priced, poor portions and appalling service.

Great atmosphere in this place, but very busy so service can be a little slow. It's great to come out with friends for a few drinks and to have a bite to eat. Unfortunately they don't seem to cater very well for vegetarians or vegans, and all there is on the menu is a veggie burger or a veggie curry. Quite basic really, but still quite tasty. Not somewhere I'd really go if I wanted specifically to eat out, but definitely a place to go for drinks and then a bite to eat if you're feeling peckish. The prices are good too!

This bar has a great atmosphere are draws a really nice crowd.
Went here for after work drinks one evening and ordered off the bar menu. The evening menu did seem to have some good choices but we were not that hungry, just peckish.
We ordered the platter x 3 and three starters....this was more than enough food! The platter was very generous for 3 portions and consisted of garlic mushrooms, onion rings, chunky chips, cocktail sausages, chicken wings and chicken goujons. We ordered Chicken parcels x 7 and the bruchetta as well. The food was pretty straight forward, nothing exceptional, but nothing to complain about either.
If you are looking for a funky little place but with cosy little booths to have a chat and quick bite to eat, this place is ideal! Plus cocktails are €5 all day every day!

3.5 Copan 3.5 star review:
Came here for dinner with a friend as had heard the food was good. First of all it is nice to have a cool modern style new pub in the area. We were warmly greeted on arrival by a lovely waitress and brought our drinks straight away. I couldn't have any alcohol so she was able to recommend non alcoholic cocktail that was absolutely delicious. We ordered our food and chatted away... about 25 mins later the waitress appeared to ask what we had ordered (seemed like the order had gone missing) after which it took another 40 mins (most of it with empty glasses too), until the food arrived. This was super slow, but as all the waiting staff were all really nice and (from that point on) really attentive and as we were not in a major hurry, I'm willing to forgive the wait. I ordered a burger which was tasty, albeit the burger was half the size of the bun and quite small. Like having a burger bun with a meatball in it. My friend had the chicken cordon bleu and was not really not impressed at the very small portion with a rather hefty price. I will visit again as the location is handy, the food, if overpriced, was tasty, and the staff and decor were nice. I would wish Copan would either increase the portion sizes or rethink the prices of the food.

I ate here for the first time and I certainly was not impressed! The setting and atmosphere is amazing, but the same cannot be said for the service! I was here in the late afternoon, it was a quiet time with only a few other tables occupied! I was sitting at my table for a good 10 minutes without being approached and eventually had to ask for a menu! This would not have bothered me if it were not for 2 members of staff standing at the bar carrying on a conversation about an up coming night out at the top of their voices for everyone to hear! When I eventually got a menu, I again had to ask for my order to be taken, as the 2 sparked up a conversation again and were oblivious to all customers! The food was average but reasonably priced, I wouldn't have paid anymore for it! This place has enormous potential but they may need to review their staff! I certainly won't be returning in a hurry!
