Yelper Shawna S. wrote, "Coop does the most deliciously respectful chicken and waffles I've ever had the pleasure to taste. The chicken is brined for 26 hours and fries up crispy, juicy and delightfully toothsome. The waffle is crispy, fluffy and flaky with a hint of cheddar and chive."

Robbie D. noted, "I had a very tasty biscuit on a crispy fried chicken thigh with red onions pickle and and a side of a pepper jelly. I was very pleased with my meal and would definitely go back to try some of the other offerings on the menu."

The mochi was soft and delicious. Overall the ambiance was very vibrant and inviting and the staff was both friendly and helpful."

Yelper Monica G. wrote, "A cutesy, girly ice cream shop with some non-traditional items. The ice cream selection is soft serve, and the flavors that day were strawberry rhubarb, tropical fruit, coconut, Ecuadorian chocolate, French vanilla and matcha."
