Copper Cogs in Erewash

Had an epic hangover breakfast here early November. The staff are just so lovely and friendly and the food was fantastic as always. We will be back often.

The place is well nice, but there are certain areas that are bitterly cold to sit and enjoy the wonderful food.

Love this place. Staff are always really friendly and give excellent service . Food was really nice and love the ambience of the place

Had a ploughman's big enough for 2 people

Always made to feel welcome by friendly staff, excellent drinks.

Had a lovely burger, pizza looked nice and there is a great selection of cocktails available

Party of 12 , alarm bells rang when the waiter said we will only take starter orders for now as to not overwhelm the kitchen , of the 7 who had starters ,1 had to wait 20 minutes for theirs to arrive.On to the mains, 3 burgers were undercooked (pink) and then took a further 40 mins for the replacement burgers to arrive , although a free drink was given to the 3 members who had the issue , nothing was taken off the final bill which was very overpriced with regards to quantity and quality

Such a beautiful place with good drinks but was let down with food ,1st we was a stater short that person had to wait for it,3 burgers had to go back as pink and cold inside ,2 of us had special pasta just veg in it and bowl was huge was also over priced ,will stick with just drinks next time ,everything was rectified but long waiting time spoilt the party

great pub, spacious and with good atmosphere

Me and friend decided to go out for a couple of celebratory drinks and brunch due to a new job offer. The place was very busy which is great to see, the food was excellent couldn’t fault it. I have given this place 3 out of 5 due to the service we received. Everything was great until I paid the bill and we was just finishing our glass of wine, when the gentlemen server came up and slammed the reserved sign on the table and told us this table is reserved from 12:30. It was was 12:32! He was quite abrupt and could clearly see we only had a few sips left. We both felt very uncomfortable and left the rest of our drink! Upon walking out we could see empty tables!! Maybe the server could of suggested we moved to a empty table near the door to finish our drinks which is more hospitable.

Came for brunch to meet a friend. The fry up was very generous and filling and my friend enjoyed her breakfast bagel too.

First time trying copper cogs and it was lovely! Met a friend for dinner and the food was 10/10, really fresh and tasty! Lots of vegetarian options too! All the staff were really attentive and so friendly! We’ll definitely be back!

Rather slow service but nice coffee and croissant.

Really lovely place and great team members 😁

First time visit here and have to say I really liked it, the service was good, friendly staff, the food all looked delicious, the coffee and cake I had were both great, would definitely recommend, will be returning for sure. I have definitely revisited many times since, feels like a little family there now, I have a regular drink and always feel comfortable.

Solid, customisable hearty breakfast with a warm welcome! I've known this corner of my home town for almost 6 decades but decided to go for breakfast at Copper Cogs for the first time today. Decor-wise the place does its best to create a themed experience in what used to be many years before, a furniture store and estate agents. The staff are all friendly welcoming and helpful. Speed of service is relaxed, but if you go in with a mind for taking your time, you won't be disappointed. Regarding the food - absolutely solid - ordered the full English swapping beans out for mushrooms and toast for tomatoes to avoid all the carbs and felt that if I wanted, i could make any additional mods had I desired. The place, for a late Tuesday morning in Long Eaton, was nicely busy and had a warm, friendly energy to it. Have resolved to return again after such a great little meal. Nice one!

Service a little slow which probably adds to the charm of this place. Unhurried pace and relaxing atmosphere

Incredibly slow service which is a shame as it really lets the place down. Waiter then made a rude comment about me not rounding up my bill (i.e leaving a tip). An odd comment as a) the service we received didn't warrant a tip and b) if I was to leave a tip I would leave it separately in cash, not by rounding up on a card reader. I found his expectation of me giving him money very rude. Unfortunately we won't be back for this reason.

Great venue with a friendly and lively atmosphere

Lovely little place, the food I've had has been lovely but I don't like cheese and the menu is very cheese orientated so there really isn't much to choose from... Service is also good and it gets busy so I find always best to book

Just moved to Long Eaton, we were on a day out shopping and wanted somewhere to eat and have a coffee. Went into Copper Cogs, loved the place straight away. Staff were lovely and helpful. Service was very good.

Sadly the service was poor. Twenty minutes and still no coffee. Then we were told order had not gone through. Doesn't encourage us to go back.

Just wanted a quick bite to eat and a drink as we were on a time crunch. Due to this my friend and I only ordered a soup and tea cake. I was informed they had run out of the tea cakes so I opted for a pastry as they had them in ready. 30+ minutes later and no sign of our food, other tables who came in after us had been served and eaten. We flagged down a waitress who then informed us they had to cook the pastry fresh and asked if I'd like to swap as it was going to be another 10 minutes before being ready. I asked to swap to a croissant but then my pastry magically appeared 1 minute later. I do appreciate this but I just wish a warning would have been given as I was originally informed everything was in stock. The pastry was very hot and clearly freshly made but it had also been rushed and still undercooked in the middle, but then due to the lunch taking so long to arrive my friend had to have her work meeting and her soup went cold before she could enjoy. I understand it was busy but I think a bit more communication from the staff would be appreciated.

Lovely meal with family, lots of gluten free options too.

Really liked this place, it's a bit of life in a (sadly) dull town. Great range of drinks at good prices, friendly service, comfortable and modern decor.

Good quality food...Nice place to dine and drinks served too. Highly recommend the staff are very welcoming too.

Friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere. Great cheese bake!! Lovely wine, too

Fabulous food, drinks and staff.

Staff are lovely and dealt with my grandson and his very specific requirements for his hot chocolate with patience and charm

First time coming here, the atmosphere was good and the food was good, I had a cheese scone and a slice of lemon cake, yum. The other people in my group had allergies which were catered for without any fuss. My only complaint was that I asked for Coffee and Walnut cake but our server Bill said there wasn't any, and he refused to bang one out for me, much to my dissapointment, hence only the 1 star. Apart from that he was very attentive and did a super job!!

The staff here are brilliant and the flat white is the best anywhere

Amazing place! We went after a spa day and due to my friend being gluten free. She was so happy with so much choice on the menu and oh my word... The food was incredible!!! It's a good job I don't live closer or I'd be there all the time!

Tasty coffee, friendly staff, cool decor.

Had a nice breakfast not expensive but better prices nearby

Very popular place. Definitely recommend the cheese scones. Try the colour changing tea ! Good service and reasonably priced.

Rude staff, dog hair everywhere so stunned how council food standard allowed it. Maybe things will improve now the owner pandered to his rude staff and put the go woke Go broke flag up. Doubt it though by attitude of staff. And appearance of her. Got issues. Better beer at yourk chambers, and clientele. Not grown men playing board games or rude staff with the I'm special attitude.Avoid. Food shipped in by major provider who supplies hotels Bostock lane also. Just saying

We have been going to copper cogs on a regular basis for 6 months +. We always have a lovely time. The team are friendly and welcoming and they are great with kids. We are delighted that there is a dedicated vegan menu and a number of alcohol free drinks available.

Love Copper Cogs . Amazing food. Staff are friendly and welcoming. Great place for socialising. meeting up with friends. Function room for parties, weddings, etc. Amazing atmosphere .

Full English :2x eggs ,2x sausages ,2x bacon ,beans and 2 pieces of toast for £11.99 ! Very good quality but too expensive for what you get .

Prices have gone crazy in the last year. Cocktails are now almost £9 each, while you can get two for that price elsewhere. A reasonable choice of draught beers and lovely food, served by great staff (including the owners).

Lovely homemade food, great service, friendly staff

Really expensive for 2 chicken and honey "sandwiches" that were toasted and basically toastie! Couldn't taste the honey at all, 2 bowls of chips and 2 coffee's..£36 , food very basic to be honest.

Lovely food we had tea cakes and the solero milkshake 😋 🤤 New drinks are delicious Definitely worth the money Staff are polite Dog friendly

‘We’re going to have to charge you for BBQ sauce’ after spending nearly £30 on an average breakfast being told that sauce is extra was disappointing.

Absolutely fantastic, amazing. Delicious food and drink at very reasonable prices for the quality. Wide range of comforting meals prepared with an eye for quality and sophistication. The restaurant makes use of seasonal fruit in the menu which is incredibly sustainable and a big yes for me. The menu seems capable of satisfying a tremendous variety while still remaining fresh and not excessive. And the ability to receive a free starter with your main at certain times allows even more selection. Our service was provided by two lovely people called Jess and I have honestly not had better service in a very long time incredibly friendly, personable and helpful Whoever had control of the music was playing some really good tunes. Interior decoration and atmosphere was lovely Overall, I will be returning and I will be doing so soon! Looking forward to it

Absolutely amazing food and staff. Went for the Italian tasting night and the food was some of the nicest we’ve ever had. Staff were incredibly kind and helpful. Always a fantastic spot for brunch and coffee but fabulous for dinner too.

We took part in the Friends quiz last night, brilliantly hosted by Ash, and it was great fun with good service

First visit here, excellent food, great service, however........ owners ..... you need to put more staff on duty, they were faultless in their attention to detail last night despite the restaurant being full. Having staff run ragged due to such high demand on them is not good. We will definitely be back to sample more of the menu. We'll done to last night's team, you deserve a medal 🙂

Just been with daughter food lovely great service

Great food, lovely atmosphere and staff are fantastic.

Really nice place for coffee and good food. Good service and comfortable seating.

Thank you for the excellent service and delicious food - first time visitor with a friend but highly recommended.

Stopped in for the 1st time... had thr best chicken and bacon Caesar salad outside of the US... 10/10

Lovely cafe bar and staff were very friendly

Lovely place with fantastic cocktails. Have had breakfast in the past. Beautiful food. Staff are very friendly and attentive..

Amazing, get atmosphere! Would definitely recommend

Tea and breakfast for two. Good Banter. A bit pricey when adding black pudding and a cup of tea. All should be included with a breakfast. £34.30💣.

Copper Cogs is great on multiple levels. The staff are lovely, the decor is always fascinating and unique, the drinks are varied and well presented and the food is always tasty! Recommended.

Came here for breakfast on Sunday morning. Food is excellent and ingredients are obviously high quality!

Came the other night with a large party, the majority of the party didnt enjoy their food and also complaining to a staff member that it was the worse drink of amstell i had ever had, to that he replied its the cheapest lager we have. How poor is that? The quality of the burger was awful. Wouldnt recommend

Always good food, always friendly staff and one of our favourite places to eat.

A very insolent sad little individual who for some reason thinks he's the maître d' of a restaurant which isn't sat on a roundabout.

Pleasant atmosphere food nice good service

Glorious food! We had pizzas, burgers and ragu - all was perfect and delicious - therefore no pictures as we couldn't resist eating straight away ❤️ Server with sense of humour was superb. Thank you.

Another great reasonable priced meal in a friendly with steampunkish decor.

Found this place when in Long Eaton, and it's really good. Went in the 1st time for a hot drink on a cold day and found it really good, the staff were friendly and helpful and our Hot chocolate was lovely. The food looked good too. A few weeks later, I happened to be close again, so this time we decided to try the food, both of us had a burger, and it was delicious and very filling. The staff were as helpful as ever and our lunch was excellent. Would recommend a visit as we will be returning soon.

Went Friday had such an amazing time staff friendly food fabulous and the gins are to die for will always return absolutely first class great venue

Never disappointed with this place. The food is always up to scratch with good vegan and GF options. Seats are comfy too

Miserable staff but lovely coffee and food although had mostly drunk the drinks by the time the food arrived

First time visit, was very impressed by the service and food choices and a great cup of coffee, and not overbearing with noise in fact very quiet

Service can be slow but the food and drink is delicious

Service was exceptional, very attentive, friendly and accommodating for our large group. The food was awful. As a large group we had to pre order breakfast which I didn’t like as I don’t know on Tuesday what I’d like to eat on Saturday, but as policy followed this instruction. Given the prior warning of our orders the food was very poor. I had pancakes with bacon and maple syrup, the pancakes were stale and the bacon, although visibly good quality, was inedible as it was anaemic with the fat uncooked and white slough visible; no one in my group enjoyed their bacon all remarking the same fault. The poached eggs when arrived were soft boiled which was disappointing. The bread was also very stale and tough to eat. The only sausages were lovely and again, very high quality. Im unsure if the food had been cooked in advance and kept under a heat lamp, if this was the case, I would advise against doing this in future as it ruined our breakfasts.

Fabulous place. Food great and generous portions. Staff are brilliant and never hassle you for your table!

Best cafe in LE! Love it here, we are regular visitors. Went today for the Easter egg cheesecake - delicious.

Delicious food, lots of vegan options. Great cocktails, and 2 4 1 during happy hour. No complaints.

Went for Lunch with my mum and grandson and because Bill was working the service was good as, it isn't when Bill isn't working. Bill is also very friendly and he has great banter with my 20 month old grandson. The cocktails are also great.Definitely recommend. going here

Excellent. Really nice food and great people

I’ve been to Copper Cogs a few times over the last 5 years but have only ever been for drinks! Decided to eat on our most recent visit and was really impressed! Had the Van Helsing burger and it was one of the best burgers Ive had in a long while! My wife is celiac and they had loads of options for her, she had a burger as well and really enjoyed! Our daughter had a pizza and that was excellent! Will definitely be back for food again!

A lovely place to meet with friends. Great services! The scone was warm out of the oven

Wonderful service everytime, lots of yummy cakes, delicious breakfast and coffee ☺️

Good food. Exceptional service. The food here is wholesome and filling, It's not super adventurous but it's done well. My favourite waiter here is both great and sassy and I love it. Had mixed service from different folks over several visits but my fav visits include a bit of banter.

Very noisy people swearing all the time embarrassing to say the least, the place was nearly empty probably why everything echoed with hard flooring and gobby people in. Staff so laid back we had to find our own table even though it said wait here lol it maybe a nice place sometimes but not this evening

Great choice of gluten free, extensive range of cocktails and mocktails. so good we went back for lunch the following day

Lovely place, excellent service and fabulous food!

The place was half full, but a loud group of people behind us were annoying. The service was slow, and the drinks took forever to arrive. It is obvious that the 3 members of staff have their own roles, and they are not going to help the lady out behind the bar. The two servers both stood at the till at one point just doing nothing, they could see I was looking at them as if to say help make the drinks, when it's busy but no they still stuck to their own roles. We had burgers, nothing special, though We had been to the spa around the corner, and that's why we went there. We will not be returning any time soon.

Service and food lovely as always. I had to knock off a star on food and service because of one of the male server’s attitude. I have coeliac disease and I am a vegetarian, this typically makes eating out very difficult but copper cogs caters really well for this. I asked for one of the gluten free vegan burgers. When he gave us the food he said it was a gluten free burger, I kindly asked for him to confirm it was also the vegan version, he said he “thinks” it is, looked at it for a while and said “yes it looks like the vegan one”. I checked and could also tell the differences visibly after looking at my burger and my partner’s beef burger so I felt confident to eat it. However, the server then came back after I had a bite and asked me “is it definitely the vegan one then?” This made me very uncomfortable and nervous I had gotten a beef burger by mistake. I do not think server’s should ask customers after they have taken a bite of what was told to be vegan to check it that it is in fact not beef. It made me anxious to eat the rest of it. Please can this be addressed for other vegetarian/vegan customers.

Too the managment. Beautiful location and great drinks.. however your customer service and relations on many occasions has been very poor ...please do not get offended if your greeter is not avaliable on the door, and we take seat during quiter times....you should treat all customers to your establishment equal and not punish them with an extended wait for service... this is not only unfair but very unprofessional...sadly you have now lost our custom and we will not be returning. Kind Regard Amy

Nice relaxed place for drinks and a snack with attentive and friendly staff, can be a bit overwhelmed when busy with a bit of a wait for food and drinks.

Food was lovely and delicious, can't fault at all but the service once we had ordered let the place down. I was gasping for another drink during dinner but no one came to the table the entire duration after ordering. Emply plates were taking away after a very very long time but was not offered a menu to look at puddings which i would have liked.

Food was lovely once it arrived but we waited a long time for our order to be taken and the food to arrive! Staff were friendly and polite.

Had a lovely evening at the Carols by Candlelight event on Christmas eve 2023. Delicious 3 course meal accompanied by a pianist and singer performing modern and traditional carols. Great service by all the staff, we were well looked after. A perfect start to the Christmas festivities. Thank you.

Guided by previous reviews, we decided to book a pre-theatre lunch. We could not have been happier. One of our party stated it was the best cafe she'd been to this year. Despite being very busy, staff were friendly, helpful and welcoming. The ambience was vibrant. There's an excellent menu and a good amount of choice for vegans. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their food.

Caring and attentive staff (with a sense of humour) and excellent coffee. The cakes are a bit moreish.

Really nice place. Great for popping in for a coffee or having some food and beer. Highly recommend a visit.

Not a bad little joint for long eaton. However we went on a week day for cocktails happy hour and spent about £80 between us and that was happy hour. Far to expensive and for how quiet it was the service wasn't the best at all. And to top it off we wernt the slightest bit tipsy which means it's either watered down or the staff arnt putting much alcohol in it. For the price it was shocking

Popped in for a lunch meeting with a colleague. Very pleasant place. Met promptly and given a nice table in a quiet area. Prompt, polite and efficient service. Coffee was very good and toasty was lovely. Reasonable prices. Very happy and will be back.

Delicious food and great atmosphere

A gem of a place in Long Eaton always happy to see you and has excellent customer service and great quality food and drink plus they don't charge extra for oat milk or soya milk.

Extending the happy hour throughout the week was a great move. The drinks here are good and the main attraction for us. Food is decent overall but pricy and can be hit and miss, their Greek salad is a crime (no place for leaves in a 'greek' salad, it should be fresh tomato, not sundried, cucumber, red onion, maybe green pepper, olive oil, feta cheese and perhaps mixed herbs, and seasoned only.) Once I had a pizza that was really burnt underneath, and overcooked poached eggs for breakfast.

This place was great. We were quite hungry after spending hours in the health spa round the corner (fwp). Starving and stinking of pool we crawled round here to get some scran as Google said it's an ok place. As it happened we turned up just as a Christmas quiz was starting, but no matter. The food we ordered was lovely, all the staff were really nice. Cocktails reasonably priced, and food portions generous. In the end we had doggy bag! Great atmosphere, tonne of veggie options also. Will go again!
