We feature live bands on Fridays and Saturdays, walk-ins are welcome. Reservations on Friday and Saturday Nights will not guarantee seating outside to see the bands. We also have introduced a Latin guitar Sunday brunch.

The Trenton waterfront received a major update with the addition of Cooper's Riverview! The atmosphere is fun and festive while providing a superb dining experience. Highlights are an amazing happy hour, entertainment, and brand new menu and an eager staff that will make your visit memorable. The massive complex features four main areas: a large entertainment hall for private events, weddings, concerts, shows and nightlife; a cozy dining area and bar; a great indoor/outdoor bar and cocktail area; and a large deck on the water with private areas and a stage for national performances. The cuisine is all of your gastro pub favorites including handmade burgers, seafood, steaks and health conscious salads. We’re bringing the fun back to the waterfront!

    The price was low for the food and especially for the mimosas. The food choices were limited and were relatively inexpensive items. It was fine for what we paid, but this was not a special occasion brunch. We haven’t been here in a while; it used to be better with more options of higher quality. The servers were friendly, efficient and went out of their way to be helpful.

    The server was very accommodating and she gave us some great suggestions from the menu. Food was terrific. Crab Bisque and Marmont Salad. And we got lucky as that evening the "The Merzey Beat" had a tribute event celebrating so we had a fun ambience as well.

    When we arrived, we were told that the restaurant is being used for a private party, and our reservation was a mistake. They were willing to set us up in a separate room by ourselves, secluded from all others at that point, we left the restaurant very disappointed and very upset we even got a confirmation about our reservation before we arrived. My wife was very upset and we did find another location to have dinner We are very disappointed with the way we were treated at the restaurant also with OpenTable setting us up with a reservation, which did not exist.  I’ve been dealing with OpenTable for years and I don’t understand how something like this could occur

    Lunch was a pleasant experience, service excellent, food fresh and delicious. Will certainly return. An oasis of interest in a languishing city. Nice mood, right on the river, could watch the ice floes and the ducks in the frigid water, a tree was encased in glass next to the table. Quiet, but serene atmosphere.

    We had not been here in a year so we were a little startled by the changes. The brunch was really dark and minimized to 10 serving trays vs 2 rooms of selections a few years ago. Brunch consisted of eggs, potatoes, breakfast meat, fruit, dessert, a cheese platter, a very fatty prime rib and some fish. There were easily 7 servers standing around watching us as we poured our own coffee from an urn and water from a pitcher. I don’t really know why they were there. And $23 for doing your own work was over the top. It was a bit odd. I’m sad as this was a middle point to meet a friend during the holidays.
