Danny & Coop's is a tiny East Village counter spot built around a single menu item — a $21 cheesesteak — served in a standing-room-only space with no seating, which has made it a buzzy, must-try stop that regularly draws a line out the door.
Reported wait times vary widely by visit: some customers describe waits of around 20 minutes, while others who arrived near opening report shorter waits (about 10 minutes to order, food out a few minutes after). Reviewers describe the longest lines on busy weekend afternoons, and since it's walk-up counter service only, there's no way to reserve ahead — arriving earlier in the day is the main lever visitors report for cutting the wait.
Patterns as reported by press and regulars — not measured by damnlines.
Reservations: No reservations - counter service. Per the shop's official site, customers order at the counter during posted hours (Sun-Thurs 12-7pm, Fri-Sat 12-9pm); separate contacts are listed for catering and private events.
Walk-ins: As a counter-service cheesesteak shop, regular service is walk-up; the official site lists catering and private-event email contacts for larger group needs but does not describe any reservation system for standard walk-in service.

Based on reported visitor experiences, waits vary a lot: some customers mention around 20 minutes, while others arriving near opening report shorter waits (roughly 10 minutes to order, food out a few minutes later). Expect the longest lines on busy weekend afternoons. (No live damnlines camera here yet — this is reported guidance, not a live count.)
No. It's a small counter-service spot with standing-room only (no seating), so it operates on a walk-up/line basis rather than reservations.
Reported hours are Sunday-Thursday 12pm-7pm and Friday-Saturday 12pm-9pm, though hours can change, so it's worth double-checking before you go.
Reports describe a single-item menu: a $21 cheesesteak sandwich. There's no seating, just standing room.
Reviewer reports suggest arriving close to opening (around 12pm), especially on a weekday, tends to mean a shorter wait than showing up on a weekend afternoon or evening.
Yes, per the official site's listed hours (Sun-Thurs 12-7pm, Fri-Sat 12-9pm), it's a straightforward walk-in counter-service spot.
