My brother and I were driving through Vandalia and decided to stop in at The Copper Penny based on the strong reviews, and we were so glad we did. The place is very clean and staff is super friendly. We both tried the Friday fish and chips special, and the fish was so good! I prefer regular fries over the battered fries we got. Not a deal-breaker, just a preference. The beer was also ice cold! A great, off-the-freeway bar and grill I’d highly suggest is worth a stop if you’re driving through Vandalia. Oh, and if you get the chance to catch a train going under the old train bridge, it’s a sight to see.

Stopped here on our road trip for a bite to eat. Our server was very friendly and made us feel welcome. The food was very good as well. Thanks for the nice experience!

I'm in town for a wedding and we decided to stop here for lunch. I'm very impressed. All of the food we got from the onion rings to the wings were delicious. The smash burger is easily one of the best burgers I've ever had. The servers are friendly and accommodating, and the atmosphere is open and relaxed. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to anyone who has the opportunity.

What a great place in downtown Vandalia! Clean and neat place, friendly helpful staff. Great food, very fair pricing. I will be going back. I usually spend about 5 weekends plus per year.
