Koppers of Cockermouth: Something New For The Cumbrian Dining Scene

Koppers Cockermouth

Since opening last year, Koppers has fast gained a reputation as one of Cumbria’s finest eateries – and the history of the building in which it is situated is almost as rich and varied as the food on offer.

Constructed in 1721, the premises was built on the commands and plans of Whitechapel. It was eventually used as Cockermouth police station and while it still retains some unique features (including a heavy cell door and bars on the windows), the interior is a complete breath of fresh air.

The building had been gutted during the disastrous Cockermouth floods of 2012, but since recently being taken over by Nicola Hudson, Koppers has been turned into a trendy, welcoming and fun place to eat and enjoy a drink. “It’s been hard work but we opened in December 2017 and since then the response has been incredibly positive.” Nicola explained.

The royal blue walls and relaxed interior create a minimalist but cosy vibe which certainly makes patrons feel at home. It’s hard to believe that the building was once a staid police station, which is testament to the hard work Nicola and her team have put into creating something unique on the Cumbrian food and drink scene.

Koppers opens at 9.30am and delivers a cafe-bar vibe, serving tapas, light snacks, coffees and other beverages. With an extensive cocktail menu and a selection of 80 different gins to choose from, in the evenings, the venue proves popular with foodies and those looking to enjoy an evening of cultured conversation and tasty concoctions.

In addition to serving up great food and cocktails six days a week, Nicola and the team also plan to organise special events at Koppers, including tapas nights, gin tastings and regular live music.
With so much to offer, Koppers is certainly a welcome addition to Cockermouth’s nightlife, whether you plan on popping in for a casual bite, a quick cocktail or a pre-planned meal.
