It’s taken a while, but Coppersmith 1894 (formerly referred to as Coppersmith Hall), the long-awaited new ambitious South Boston restaurant complex, is now in the home stretch to be open and will be doing so just as your Labor Day hangovers are nearing their end.

According to Red Door Hospitality’s Travis Talbot, who has been supporting the ground-level plans and helping to orchestrate the opening, Coppersmith will spend a few days doing friends and family previews around September 3, and will finally open to the public September 8.

Located at 40 W 3rd Street, there will be a lot to explore here. And between the multiple patios, the roof-deck raw bar replete with a vintage-y silver Airstream trailer, coffee shop concept, and cavernous interior (it’s inside the shell of the former 100-year-old Dahlquist Manufacturing Company, a copper boiler and metal fabrication facility) housing two permanent indoor food trucks (think: BBQ, specialty sandwiches), mixed use daytime serious coffee-shop and cafe, and focus on all local ingredients in their shared-plates and hand-held small bites, there’s really no way to not be excited about this.

Be sure to check back for a look at the inside but for now here’s a peek at their menu, which Talbot notes will be tweaked for seasonal changes and freshness along the way.
