The Coop Nashville Kitchen Bar & Lounge — Restaurant in Town of Oyster Bay

If you’re looking for a fun spot on the Main Street bar strip, this place is a solid choice. With a live band playing some great tunes, it has a lively vibe that’s perfect for a night out. It tends to attract an older crowd, but the energy is still high, and there's a good mix of people enjoying the music and food.

The restaurant is split into two areas: one for the bar and band, and the other for a more relaxed dining experience. If you want a more relaxed spot to enjoy your meal, the restaurant side is perfect, but if you're in the mood for some music, the band side has a great atmosphere.

As for the food, everything I tried was delicious and surprisingly affordable. The pretzels were definitely the standout, soft and salty definitely worth getting. The brisket mac and cheese was also a winner, with creamy cheese and flavorful brisket. The empanadas, on the other hand, were on the spicy side, so I’d probably skip those next time. But hey, if you like a bit of heat, they could be just your thing. The chicken wraps were bland.

The drinks were perfectly balanced, not too strong but still with enough punch to enjoy. The french fries were crispy and satisfying simple, but done right. The staff was friendly and attentive, which made the whole experience even better.

Overall, it’s a great spot to enjoy some live music, grab a bite, and have a drink. Whether you’re there for dinner or just to hang out with friends, it’s definitely...

Went here on a Friday evening with the family. First, we were surprised by the confusing set up. It's essentially 2 sides to the restaurant - a bar side and a take out/eat in/lounge side (order your food at the counter and sit anywhere to eat). Tip: If you are going to enjoy the live music be sure to sit on the bar side. There is no view of liveusic from the lounge area. This was disappointing. Decor was excellent and vibe over all was good. The service was average. It was a bit annoying to keep going to the counter when our bbq sauce bottle (table side) ran out or when we needed extra plates or take out containers. Food was average at best. The pulled pork was unseasoned and had absolutely no flavor. The rib started out okay when warm but then it got dry and was not enjoyable. The brisket was okay. The onion rings had the fried skin falling off so we never got a proper bite. The chicken sandwich was also bland. Fried pickles were the only thing we finished. Everything else we could not finish eating so we packed it to go and seasoned it at home. The hand spun shakes were good. The banana pudding is not actually banana pudding. It's a layered parfait and did not hit the spot. We will not come back here for dinner but maybe for a drink...

Tried this place for the first time on 2/5/25. With my wife and two kids. Was very disappointed. Place was clean and organized and pretty cool looking. Service was absolutely terrible the waitress was very confused and distracted I knew we were going to have a problem when she came back to the table two times to confirm what we ordered. The two Stella bottled beers we ordered were warm. The two sodas we ordered showed up twenty minutes later. I ordered cheddar cheese grits never seen anything like that before cold cheese on top and mash potato consistency grits they were sour and tasted old. Ordered a chicken sandwich for one of the kids said no Cole slaw sandwich came out with coleslaw I felt bad to send it back so I kept it and ordered him a new one which was burnt and the fries cold. Also ordered a COOP BBQ platter beans were horrible, brisket had zero flavor and the pulled pork was cold and mushy. The ribs were awesome! Also ordered another platter with ribs and 6 chicken wings that was awesome. I am not going to even comment on the cornbread.

Sorry about this but if you are going to charge the amount of money that you do the service and food should...
