Private Event Space · Middletown, DE

The Back Room.

An intimate, beautifully appointed space tucked behind our café. Perfect for the occasions that deserve more than a banquet hall.

About the Space

Intimate. Warm. Completely Yours.

The Back Room is a thoughtfully designed private event space attached to our café. It holds up to 30 guests for a seated event and 45 for a cocktail-style gathering — small enough to feel special, large enough to matter.

When you book The Back Room, the space is entirely yours for the duration. Your guests get the full Copper Kettle experience — scratch-made food, exceptional coffee, warm hospitality — in a setting that's private and personal.

We've hosted baby showers, bridal showers, birthday dinners, book clubs, team off-sites, and art installations. Whatever you're celebrating, we'll make it feel exactly right.
