Good food, great beer selection, really bad service. This place is in desperate need of an overhaul of its operations - especially at the lunch hour. Copper Blues has become a ghost town during the Phoenix lunch hour while restaurants around it thrive. Service simply takes too long for a typical business lunch. Despite the lack of crowds, servers are inattentive, food takes forever to come out of the kitchen, and at times the entire staff seems to disappear into back rooms.

I love this place. The decor is great, the baristas are knowledgeable, everything seems great. But the most important thing, the coffee, sucks. Its so bitter and nasty. I have been in here like five times because I think its going to be different, but its not and its so sad. They really need to shine with Lux being just down the street. They need better coffee. Plain and simple.

I am a professional staff at UNLV and decided to try the me love you long time lobster sandwich. I saw it was $13.00 and thought "okay ill try it..after all my husband is a chef and an advocate of food trucks". I was surprised to see the sandwich is pretty SMALL (maybe just under 6") !!! it had great flavor and presentation, but for $13, i would expect a 10" or 12" sandwich. I've read that this price point is not student friendly..but its not staff friendly either! I think its over priced. Something in the realm of $10 max would probably fit the university climate better. Even as a pro staff, I am mindful of the dollar amount spent and the value commodity in return.

Earl of Sandwich serves $6 sandwiches 24 hours a day. The problem is that the one and only sandwich I tried was extremely disappointing. I asked the lady at the counter for the most popular sandwich and she said, "Get the Earl Club." So, I did. Sadly, the strongest flavor for the Club was Charcoal because the crust of the Bread was burned just enough to make it snap-hard and bitter while the Bacon was 2 strips of even crunchier charcoal crisps. With skimpy toppings, light on the cheese, and not enough flavor to overcome the burnt taste, the Earl Club was a miss. I ate most of the Turkey and Cheese, but let the rest hit the trash can on the way out. The convenience of being connected to the Planet Hollywood Casino and Miracle Mile of Shops was nice, but the Earl of Sandwich was a losing bet in a city full of great eats. Treat it as a late night stomach-stuffer for $6. Nothing more. Nothing less.
