CHILLICOTHE, Ohio — A downtown Chillicothe restaurant is continuing to draw praise from customers for its hearty breakfasts, large portions and friendly service.
The Coop Chillicothe, located at 66 N. Paint Street, serves breakfast, brunch and lunch in the heart of downtown.

The restaurant is relatively new to the downtown landscape. Downtown Chillicothe reported in August 2023 that The Coop had opened less than a month earlier and was already serving hundreds of breakfast customers. (Downtown Chillicothe)
Since then, the restaurant appears to have developed a loyal following.
A look at recommendations on The Coop’s Facebook page shows customers repeatedly praising both the food and employees. The page displayed 100% recommended based on 17 reviews.
One of our writers recently visited the establishment and highly recommends the Buckeye Iced Coffee and any of the French Toast!
One customer said the food was worth an hour-long drive and specifically praised the Berry Nutty Waffle and service. Another customer visiting from Kentucky complimented the restaurant’s Pumpkin Stuffed French Toast and Chicken Fried Steak, describing the portions as large and saying the visit would not be their last.
Other reviewers called The Coop a “great breakfast spot,” praised its atmosphere and described repeated visits as consistently positive. One customer gave the restaurant a “10/10,” highlighting the Junior breakfast, biscuits and gravy, iced coffee and quick service.
The current menu backs up the restaurant’s reputation for traditional breakfast fare with some creative twists. Offerings include The Classic, featuring three eggs, breakfast meat, potatoes and a pancake; Sir Thomas, a country-fried steak covered in sausage gravy and served with eggs, potatoes and a biscuit; chicken and waffles; several varieties of eggs Benedict; and biscuits and gravy.

For those looking for something lighter, the menu also includes options such as avocado toast and a protein bowl made with quinoa, eggs, turkey sausage, spinach, tomatoes, mushrooms and cheese.
The restaurant also offers coffee, iced coffee, cappuccinos, café mochas and other drinks, along with rotating specials and desserts.
The Coop’s success adds another locally operated dining option to North Paint Street and Chillicothe’s growing downtown restaurant scene.
For a business built around breakfast, brunch and lunch, customer reviews suggest the formula has been fairly straightforward: generous portions, approachable comfort food and service that keeps people coming back.
The Coop Chillicothe is located at 66 N. Paint Street, Chillicothe, Ohio 45601. More information and the restaurant’s current hours and menu are available through The Coop Chillicothe’s official website.
