Crema's Take

The Copper Train has built genuine loyalty around a killer brunch program where the breakfast sandwiches and biscuits-and-gravy actually live up to the hype, paired with cold brew and specialty drinks that justify the higher prices. The owner Dakota clearly runs a tight ship that balances serious hospitality with flexibility—regulars rave about the welcoming service and the owner's willingness to accommodate requests, making it feel less like a transaction and more like visiting someone who actually cares. It's the kind of place you'll find yourself returning to regularly once you finally make the trip.

What to expect

Cold brew standout. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

The Copper Train was IMPRESSIVE in every way - we were immediately greeted, placed our order, found a cozy place to sit, and before we knew it our holiday coffees were ready. We were even able to speak with the owner and learn more about the restaurant over the last several…
