The secrets
Insider tips
Most of The Coop is walk-in, and those seats get the full food menu. A smaller slice opens on Resy six days ahead at midnight, for up to six people. Ask the host for the text waitlist and be back within 10 minutes. A held table lasts about 10 minutes. Anything booked or traded off Resy is not honored. Bring a photo ID. Guests under 21 can eat from 5pm to 10pm, and there is a $2.50-per-person booking fee that is not returned if you change or cancel.
The Coop doesn't use Resy Notify, so the line is the real waitlist. Arrive before 5 PM for The Coop or the front bar, now Free Range, which takes only limited reservations.
