About
Welcome to Kopper Kettle Café, a hidden gem nestled in the heart of Susanville, California, located at 2535 Main St. This café transcends the typical dining experience by offering a delightful blend of comforting breakfasts and authentic Chinese cuisine that nourish both the body and soul.
One of the standout offerings at Kopper Kettle is undoubtedly their Chinese menu, which tantalizes the palate with dishes like Sweet and Sour Shrimp—succulent shrimp enveloped in a tangy glaze that’s simply unforgettable. For a more adventurous bite, the Kung Pao Shrimp delivers a spicy kick, well complemented by crunchy peanuts and fresh vegetables. Diners rave about the Shrimp with Mixed Vegetables, where fresh produce meets juicy shrimp in a light sauce that perfectly balances flavor and health.
The ambiance of Kopper Kettle is reminiscent of classic diners, where friendly service meets a welcoming atmosphere. Customers frequently commend the attentive staff, noting that the camaraderie adds an extra layer of warmth to their meals. Norma Daly captures this sentiment perfectly with her praise of the friendly waitstaff and the “best bean soup” she has ever tasted, urging the chef, Mike, to market it. This is the kind of place where everyone knows your name, or at least your favorite dish.
Of course, it's not without its quirks—George L. Ortiz humorously points out the absence of beer and the timing of steamed rice service, but these minor inconveniences hardly overshadow the quality and generous portions.
Kopper Kettle Café is more than just a place to grab a meal; it’s a culinary experience where community and flavor come together. Whether you're looking to indulge in a decadent Monte Cristo or dive into a comforting plate of Chinese specialties, Kopper Kettle is a must-visit destination. We eagerly await our next visit to uncover more delightful dishes from this beloved café.

“ My family and I came here on Friday to specifically try their Chinese Food. We ordered the Egg Rolls, Chicken Fried Rice, Vegetable Chow Mein & Mixed Vegetables. We were definitely satisfied and our plates were empty. We WILL be returning _ ”
“ Great old fashion diner, great service. I had homemade egg salad on rye (fresh baked) and garlic fries. The garlic fries were very good, crunchy- but very garlicky. The egg salad was good, but I prefer sweet pickles instead of dill, but still good. Hubby had turkey open faced , which was delicious. ”
“ Good people, great food, they have authentic Chinese food as well as standard American. ”
“ Service was prompt, and food was absolutely delicious and flavorful! The corn was bland, but everything else satisfied my taste buds more than I can expect. I even took to go, cheesecake, and chocolate cake. I was seated right away, and my food came in a very timely manner. Everything was bursting with flavor. I highly recommend coming here! ”
