Big Guy Eating: Lunch at Copper Jacket Cafe in Hooksett NH

My brother and I went to the Shooters Outpost for a late lunch. It was at the Copper Jacket Cafe. I think the fact it is in the same building as the Shooters Outpost might have influenced the name. I think it was clever naming it after something that is used by guns.

It is not a huge place but it is a really nice place. The next time I am in the area, I will eat at this cafe.

I had visited the Shooters Outpost before and noticed a cafe at the end of the building but it was not opened yet. I noticed on Facebook that they had opened. It did not have a name to the place; none that I had noticed. There wasn't a sign indicating Copper Jacket Cafe.

This was the crab cakes. It is not easy seeing the crab cakes but there are three of them They were on a bed of spinach leaves. They had roasted red peppers on them. It was really good. The crust of the crab cakes was just right. Some places it is a little too hard / crispy. The roasted red peppers added to it.

This is the tuna melt. As one can see, it is in the open sandwich form. It was really good. The toast was crunchy but not too hard. It had a delicious cheese on it. The tomato was good and it wasn't cold. The tuna salad was delicious.

Even though it was about 1 in the afternoon, my brother ordered the big breakfast. He really liked it. It was not long before it was gone.

I guess they had metal straws to combat the 'problem' with plastic straws or because of the cafe name. Either way, I thought it was neat. It was already 'pre-bent' to that shape. There was no real way to get holes in that.

The diet Coke was cold and refreshing. I am glad I got a can. There are times they don't blend it correctly at the place where one eats.
