Cooper's Seafood House

I knew the food was going to be fresh the moment I walked through the front door — it had that unmistakable aroma of a classic Cape Cod seafood spot. The atmosphere felt warm, cozy, and timeless, like a place that’s been serving great meals forever. I also have to mention Adrienne, who gave us fantastic recommendations and truly exceptional service. Honestly, I was tempted to come back the very next day for more of their delicious seafood!

Coopers Coopers is more than just a restaurant — it’s a local icon. The moment you walk in, the nautical décor and walls filled with old photos and keepsakes tell stories from its 70+ years in the neighborhood. My husband, who was in town for a high school reunion, even spotted two of his grade school photos on display — such a fun surprise and a trip down memory lane. The food definitely lives up to its reputation for fresh seafood. The Crab Pretzel was warm and loaded with creamy crab and cheese. The Crispy Sesame Brussels Sprouts were a great twist — perfectly crisp with a sesame glaze that really worked. My husband’s Cedar-Planked Salmon was tender and flavorful, and my Seafood Crêpes were rich, creamy, and generously filled. Even during a busy dinner rush, the service was friendly and prompt. Coopers has that rare mix of history, good food, and genuine warmth that makes you want to come back again and again. There’s even a World map showing where visitors have come from!

Dinner portions are huge. Food was great. Decor was a throwback...lots of things to see and read in the walls. Got the linguine with clam sauce and soft shell crab tacos for dinner. Stuffed mushrooms and shrimp cocktail as appetizers. Also got the crabby bloody mary drink.

So, we scheduled a Friday all day trip up to the Scranton area for shopping and a movie at night. When we got up to the area around lunch time, everyone was hungry and we ended up stopping here, and we were glad we did. What an experience Coopers is. The building itself is such a sight when getting out of the car. We got seated outside and enjoyed the beautiful weather while enjoying some refreshing drinks and a lobster roll. The perfect start to our Scranton trip.

Cooper's is Our go to every weekend while I'm home from work. The monthly specials are always amazing and our server Mary was super attentive and sweet tonight. We also really appreciate Nicole who always checks in on us while we are in. Thanks, ladies for always making it a great experience!

First time there and really enjoyed it! Great beer selection and we ordered the mussels, fish and chips and the just seafood. All were very good, nice place, lots of space, fun atmosphere as well.

What is there to say about this place? It has it all - great food, great service, great atmosphere and never ending nostalgia. My mother-in-law loved the Elvis bathroom and the endless Americana. My husband and daughter loved the Office gift shop. I loved the famous Bloody Mary. It made for an extremely memorable stop in Scranton. Highly recommend a visit - if only to look around and have a drink.

Driving in Scranton is always hell. We finally found the restaurant. The food was excellent. I had the crabcakes and they were excellent. They could step tings up a offer a remoulade sauce with the crab cakes instead of tartar sauce. Our waitress was Brook and she was attentive and prompt. She was a s excellent. All in all it was an enjoyable experience. The decor is cluttered and the connection to the show The Office means nothing to me.

We had a private luncheon at Cooper's for a sizable group. The food was outstanding and all ordered from the menu. The service provided by Anni was top shelf. Crab cakes were the fav and of course the crab bisque was delicious. Cooper's never disappoints which is why they have been in business for so many years, providing a fun atmosphere and fantastic food and incredible service.

i think i know why there was a king's special this week-- the lobster gave me food poisoning bonnie was a great server though

Cooper's is so iconic! It was a treat on this visit. We came for half price bottles of wine on a Wednesday. THE FOOD -alligator bites are a must have. They are so delicious, almost like a white fish taste and chicken consistency. We loved the remolaude they were served with. I think in the past they've done a buffalo sauce special of them as well which is just as good! And of course you get your gator taster pins -the fries are very well seasoned! We were here for a casual wine lunch (lol) and enjoyed splitting these two apps. THE DRINKS -in the summer on the patio it's always fun to get one of their speciality cocktails (tho many tend to be sugary, so be warned) today we were here for wine! -we chose a lovely bottle of Pinot Grigio that came out to maybe $11 after the special? Was great with our gator and fries. -they also had a wide selection of other wines and beer if you're looking for options! THE SERVICE -our server was super sweet and attentive! -she was knowledgeable but when I had a question she didn't know the answer to she made sure to ask the kitchen for me THE ATMOSPHERE -like I said, iconic. You're greeted by a shark, multiple pirates, a huge lighthouse, and an octopus overlooking all of that . -the different themes all around the restaurant and historic things to look at is incredible. You can have a new experience every time you go! As a kid I used to love looking at the little figurine displays inset in the walls and as an adult I still have to walk down the hallway and take a peek at the Flintstones. Overall, I will definitely be back as we really enjoyed our food (and I converted my friend to a gator eater!). I feel like quite a few years back the food seemed like it had gone downhill, but I can say with confidence my last few visits I over the past 4-5 years have definitely been delicious. Way to go, Coopers!

We chose Cooper's for dinner primarily because of their ties to The Office and we were glad we did. I chose the fish of the day which was Haddock. It was served broiled with your choice of two sides of which I chose broccoli and a garden salad. Husband had the fish and chips. We both enjoyed our meals very much. The veggies were fresh. The Haddock had a nice flavor. The fish and chips were light and not greasy as they sometimes can be. Our server was fantastic. So friendly and helpful with the menu. The vibe was sort of supper club, sort of out of this world. With vignettes throughout (including Star Wars, Flintstones, and GI Joe), a toy train that ran along the ceiling, a lighthouse that was part of the architecture, and, of course, an Office gift shop, there was a little bit of something for everyone. Nice stop plus we got a map of other Office locations we can check out before we leave Scranton. So fun!

We stopped because of the Dunder Mifflin gift shop. This is a very fun place to stop. They have a little bit of everything nostalgic everywhere for decor. The waitress was very friendly and we didn't expect to eat here but we tried it. Wasn't planning on seafood because we just searched Dunder Mifflin. The Crab Balls were like hush puppies but softer in the middle. The fish and chips were really good. My daughter got the penne and vodka sauce. She said it was perfect but a huge portion for my little 16yo. My wife got a Caesar salad that was also huge. I don't know if we will ever be back this way again. I recommend this place.

Excellent place to spend a Saturday, on their deck. Very good crab cakes, and soft shell crabs. Extensive beer choices, too.

I just went because I love the office and I was near the area the gift shop was my favorite part they had so many unique things to purchase that I've never seen before! Definitely worth checking out as for the restaurant I Had to wait quite awhile to be seated and it was just me the food was 6/10 I got a cheeseburger wouldn't get it again tho price was decent at 15$ There were lots of things to see as you walked around all kinds of different trinkets on the walls

Fun and friendly. Good crab cakes. Good burger. Dunder Mifflin theme. Close to Route 81.

Best damn seafood place I've ever been to. Place is awesome , food is on the money wow worth every penny. The facility is beautiful. The bathrooms are beautiful. The staff is absolutely amazing. Their service was quick. The prices are reasonable. I drove an hour and a half one way from New York and I'll do it again very soon. Worth my time driving. Thank you

Great food the service is always amazing And you can't beat the prices. You can go and it's crowded out go and few people but always busy daily

This place is a total dump. You can sit at your table for an hour and a half before getting any kind of food whatsoever including just a piece of bread. The waiter was utterly inexperienced, rude and incompetent. Do not waste your time ! The decor is completely dated with tacky 70s kitsch and requires a complete teardown. Gordon Ramsey please make a visit !!

This place is awesome. Not only for their great food but it's like eating at a museum. Our server was on point and the place is so cool Would definitely drive 2 hours again for this place

I wish I made it here more, it's very close to me and convenient since it's open 7 days a week for both lunch and dinner. Today, Cade & Vic assisted me at the bar for Cinco de Mayo and were both great! $6 margaritas today to celebrate couldn't be beat! I had the shrimp quesadilla which was delicious and should be added to their menu!

Traveling through Scranton and found this place. OMG amazing. Clam chowder was thick and delicious. The pretzel covered in crab meat and cheese was to die for. Bang bang shrimp was pretty good too. Although busy, we were seated right away and served immediately. Being a fan of The Office was a surprise as well.

I mean, let's keep it 100. The only reason I went to Scranton was for the self guided "The Office" tour. I don't think many people flocking to scranton for the food scene. it was kitsch and cute

Came here on an Office based self guided tour. Jumped on the waitlist quick and spent time exploring this unique space. You definitely won't be bored while waiting. My husband and I both got the crab cakes. They're a bit more like crab stuffing than cakes, but the flavor made up for it. Tartar sauce was really great. I got a baked potato with butter (probably about a pound of butter but at least they weren't stingy) and a house made peppercorn dressing. The food was overall quite good. Service was reallllllly slow. It was very busy but it took nearly 2 hours and that's just a lot. But it was still a good experience

We haven't dine here since we are already full but we roamed around and was very interested and occupied by their frames by the wall and collections! They have the office gift shop. Ample of parking, accepts credit/debit, high chair available. See images for reference

We were visiting in town and invited friends to join us at Cooper's. I had the NE Clam chowder and Lobster Tail. both were fantastic. My wife and my friends each had the seafood platter which looked great. My wife gave me a sea scallop and a shrimp. Both tasted great. We enjoyed our dinners and decided to sit at the bar to watch the final game of the World Series since we all love baseball. We enjoyed our time together at the bar and the bartender who also loved baseball was very friendly and made for a great evening. A very enjoyable evening.

Came as part of my 5,800 mile 30 city food trip after the Pocono nascar race. The venue itself was neat with its colorful office mural to outdoor area to a neat vibe inside. Server was super friendly. Draft list was a bit weak but decent. The crabby pretzel was fantastic! Lump crab dip and cheese baked over the pretzel. Lobster and shrimp linguini in plum Alfredo sauce was solid. Seafood cooked perfectly. Plum sauce slightly bland and needed red pepper flakes and some salt

This is among the first results you'll see for restaurants in Scranton. It's easy to see why. (The Office connection is cool but there's so much more to Cooper's.) From the moment you first see the restaurant from the street, you know you're in for an experience. Great decor outside and in. And the Office gift shop and other references are a nice bonus, as you'll often need to wait to be seated if you're coming here during lunchtime. It's a neat little store with cool things to look at for those Office fans. I had the Halibut. I don't normally get fish but I gave it a try and was happy. Seasoned well and nice texture. I'm sure it's one of many great choices on this menu. To sum up, this place is a must visit.

Food is always excellent, upstairs bartender Charley and crew Isaiah, Nate, Denado are all attentive, personable, and fast. Made it a regular spot to come to while here for work for a few months, gets better every time. I've asked for a permanent cardboard cutout to be put in my upstairs bar spot, 6 stars if I see that happen.

Stopped in because we are office fans. The gift shop and ambiance was definitely one of a kind. There are some Office themed spots, but also random other theme spots. Really just seems like they're using the office as a tourist attraction. The waiter was nice, but not very observant. The food... If I'm honest, that might have been the worst tasting crab soup I've ever had in my life...

When visiting Scranton this is one of our favorite places to go. The atmosphere is incredible with scenes from all the shows and movies I grew up with and love depicted throughout the property. There is something for everyone in that regard. From sitting at the bar across from a cutout of Norm from Cheers to the museum and gift store from the show The Office. I brought my wife a dundee award for best wife. The food is fresh and delicious with a ton of great seafood options. I always look forward to eating here. However the best part is the staff. You can tell they really do love this place and that passion goes into the care and attention we get everytime.

Terrible service!! not our first time here the food is decent nothing to rave about but we figured we'd give it another try. Big mistake after waiting an hour and 20 minutes without ever receiving our food. We got up and left.. we are several times if we could have a status on her food the waiter was rude and dismissive. He basically said we're really busy. The kitchen is busy. However, three tables around us arrive 20 to 30 minutes after us they were all served and one table of five finished their meal and left, and we were still sitting there with nothing. The waiter never came by to check on us. He never apologized-offered us more drinks, nothing. Save your money go someplace else. This is just a tourist trap.

Actually, do not know where to start. We sat at the 'main' bar and indulged in local craft beer, discounted martinis, French onion soup and lobster, multiple sides and chocolate mousse to close it out. Everything exceeded expectations, including the service. After exploring a little, the nostalgia effect took over as they had many artifacts/games from our childhood. Also, they had am additional interior bar (which was packed) as well as what appeared to be an upstairs area. We were here in late November, but it also looked like there was an outside tiki-bar and seating type of situation. If we lived closer, we would probably return weekly!

Food is always amazing! Staff is friendly and the place is unique! Love it there. Did you know you can host a private party there too!

We celebrated a colleague farewell. Dinner, drinks and server Lexi was fantastic! Definitely a great experience!

We had a fantastic lunch at Cooper's Seafood House! Our server Demetrie was great and such an awesome atmosphere & very cool aesthetic decor! The woman's restroom is Elvis themed with his music playing in it! So many nostalgic relics & a Office gift shop too! It's like a mini museum of the screen area and nostalgic TV, video games & such! Don't forget to say HI, to Norm at the end of the bar! I had one of the BEST lobster rolls I've ever had & the fries were exceptionally delicious! Also definitely get the Maryland Crab soup, you won't be sorry! Pat had the crab cakes, another phenomenal plate! Not sure how all that crab meat held together, certainly no fillers in this bad boys! We will DEFINITELY be making multiple trips from Williamsport to one of our new favorite restaurants!!

There's so many cool things to see in this restaurant! Take a walk around and explore. There is a gift shop dedicated to the show, The Office. Ok, the food- its pretty good, but I didn't think it was anything special. The fish in the Fish and chips had a weird texture and I wasn't impressed with the flavor. Service wasn't great the night we were there, but I believe they were understaffed.

Good food and service. So much to see walking around. As a veteran, the military article and photos made me cry.

All the food was delicious and the service was excellent The memorabilia has to be seen. It's a history museum with pictures, displays and artifacts. Even the bathroom has amazing photos of The Beetles with accompanying music while you take care of business. This is a must see if you are in the area.

I have been going to Coopers for as long as I can remember. The food is reasonably priced. Fresh and always has a great taste ..

Always a staple when in Scranton. Fresh seafood, strong beverages and fun conversation!

Stopped by this place for some oysters and beers and what a nice surprise , this location was where some of the office episodes were filmed . I honestly had no idea so it was the cherry on top. I ordered oysters , which were great and a beer. The restaurant is so nice , filled with so much to look at and they have a map of all the office filming locations to visit plus a gift shop for the fans . The bartender who took care of me was so friendly and great to talk to . I'd love to come back and try their menu , everything looked delicious.

I was down the street getting new tires put on at Steve Shannon's . I walked down to Cooper Seafood House. I had the surf and turf and alligator bites and it was absolutely amazing!!!

Food quality / price (value) rating 9. The atmosphere is sailor and sea faring oriented with a heavy accent on celebrity memorabilia. Even the restrooms have themed music piped in - Beatles in the men's room, and Elvis for the ladies. This place is HUGE!!! And filled with interesting collectibles. The menu leans toward fish and shellfish dishes. I had the Cheesy Haddock and chose a dinner salad (very good), and a baked potato as my two side dishes. The portion was very large, prepared well and served hot. The wife had the Seafood Crepes + shrimp, scallops, and lobster, and said it was good. We split a Rice Pudding dessert that was also a very generous portion, with plenty of whipped cream. After a couple limited distribution house cabernets and a Keoke coffee, we got the check which was for less than both of us guessed, an always welcome circumstance. Service was attentive and well executed. After dinner, we spent twenty minutes just checking out the many rooms filled with curios. This place has been around for 77 years, is kid friendly, has catering facilities, and is fun for everyone. A genuinely entertaining experience.. Also a great date place.

We found a seafood treasure in the Poconos mountains named Cooper Seafood House. An amazing restaurant with incredible decor and ambience. Our server Gabby was a joy, attentive and friendly. The seafood was fresh and perfectly cooked. An amazing feast in the mountains!

What an interesting place! It's such a delight, full American culture, museum/seafood restaurant . It also pays homage to the beloved TV show that takes place here in Scranton, Pennsylvania called "the office. " So what are you waiting for your food and afterwards if you wanted to walk around you are welcome to see all the wonderful nostalgic treasures straight out of a antique store, or your quirky uncles international toothpaste collection.... Teehee My seafood dish (halibut) was delicious. We also got lobster, oysters, and alligator soup. Everything was a hit. Cheesecake was also delightful. I will definitely come back with a friend.

If you are a lover of fish dishes this is the place to go Nice Atmosphere inside the restaurant Good staff a must go to place

A local favorite that includes the "Office" gift store. Good fish food and good service.

This light house restaurant is just as fun on the outside as it is on the inside. The walls are covered in such classic pics! Also has a "The Office" show gift shop. We went in for dinner and ordered from a specialty menu. I had the lobster parm with noodles and my boyfriend the steak. Both plates were 10/10. Our server was so kind and constantly checked in. We loved our experience so much we went back the next day for lunch. Now this time the restaurant had an Oktoberfest make over with live music. The Shark bites were fun to try and got better every bite. We ordered the brat and pretzels. We wish we could have tried everything on the menu.

If you're an Office fan, this place is a must go to! Lots of Office art and merch. Also, the food is amazing! Very fresh seafood and unique offerings.

Our party of 4 arrived for the anniversary week ,, waited 20 minutes to b seated so did the auction while we waited ,,, I thought a longer wait but it was fast ,,, seated now n mary was our server very nice gal ,,, place was little crazy but she was very professional ,,,, food was very good as always ,, thank you a great Wednesday afternoon we will definitely see you again soon !!!

Amazing ambiance! The decor was different and interesting at every turn. Definitely worth walking around inside and seeing all the creative and fun things. Food was very nice, fish and chips and fish tacos. Delicious. Definitely the place to stop in Scranton. Bonus points to The Office themed gift shop.

Awesome! So good. Took business associates to lunch and went back for dinner & drinks. Such a great place. Hope to return soon!

Tiffany is the best server ever. Food and atmosphere was excellent, I Highly recommend it!

This place is so fun!! The food was wonderful. We had fish & chips, lobster mac & cheese, and kid's chicken tenders. The fries were good too! The slaw was fresh. Everything was excellent with large portions. The waitress was nice and helpful. The Office memorabilia and souvenirs are fun & unique. All the staff we came across was helpful & nice too. They offer to take your picture. Just a great time, great food, and great people!

When it comes to seafood in Scranton, Cooper's is hands down the best in the city. I was raised in nearby Dunmore, and on very special occasions my family would dine here (My dear Dad wasn't rolling in money). Their bar appears to have an amazing selection, and there are photos and paraphernalia everywhere, and I mean everywhere, so one can easily spend several hours perusing the walls and inspecting the innumerable photos and memorabilia of Scranton. There's even a picture of Bill and Hilary taken when they dined there, but please don't hold that against the restaurant. I suppose if one is seated in a booth, you can be romantic with someone, but there is significant hustle and bustle and such extensive visual and auditory stimulation that it may be difficult to gaze romantically into someone's eyes and have a quiet and intimate experience., but what do I know? Outdoor dining is an option, weather permitting, and they do accommodate private groups. Being a seafood establishment, figures of pirates abound, and on the rooftop sits a massive octopus which was constructed by an acquaintance of mine who currently resides in Lexington, Virginia. I've enjoyed a meal at Cooper's thrice in recent months whilst attending to family matters in Scranton, and would certainly return when I'm in the environs again. Don't expect this to be a cheap meal. Our tab for 2 people was between $50-60 for each of those meals, and we imbibed no alcoholic libation. The place is crowded most days of the week, however they seem to seat people efficiently and have adequate staff who for the most part are quite pleasant. That was certainly the case with our servers. In summary, if you want to treat yourself ( who doesn't?) or treat someone else, enjoy seafood or Americana, and are anywhere near Scranton, definitely do check out Cooper's!
