Standing high above the city on the 10th floor of the City Club Apartments, at 309 Vine Street; resurrected from the history that has stood here before our time, Shires' Rooftop is inspired by the first amusement resort in this part of the country, Shires' Garden. Though the original Shires' Gardens burned to the ground, "in a most picturesque fire," the legacy that was left behind is everlasting and an integral part of the Queen City's history. The creation of the Matinee Performance, the regal guests Shires' hosted, an unsolved murder and other noteworthy events that took place at the original Shires' Gardens, are an inspiration to our program that we look forward to sharing with you.

We loved Coppin's! We were celebrating our anniversary, and they took very good care of us the whole evening, from our pre-dinner drinks at the bar to the dinner itself. It's a lovely restaurant, delicious food, and top-notch service. We'll definitely be back.

My wife and I went for the first time for her birthday. We were greeted at the door by our waiter, and he acknowledged her birthday, which was great! We were seated early, which was great, and our server went over the options and his favorites. We went with the flat bread, and then the filet. It was all very delicious. We plan on coming back to try the brunch.
