Coopertown Restaurant
Coopertown Restaurant Review
Make this a pit stop for local color and cuisine fished straight from the swamp. Started a half century ago as a sandwich stand, this eatery inside an airboat concession storefront has long attracted the famous and the humbly hungry. House specialties are frogs' legs and alligator tail breaded in cornmeal and deep-fried, served with a lemon wedge and Tabasco. Additional options include catfish, shrimp, burgers, hot dogs, and grilled cheese sandwiches.
