I finally ventured to Corner Bistro yesterday to see whether their burgers deserve the accolades lavished on them.
Well, they don't. The cheeseburger I had was fine-- good, even-- but the patty was a little dry and the bun was thin and soggy. The fries were good, but identical to McDonald's version for twice the price; I don't think I would be able to tell the difference in a blind taste test.
The antique feel of the pub is nifty; I didn't have to wait for one for of the ten tables at 5:45, but there was a line out the door by 6:15. Service was lacking; my coke was served in a recently washed mug and tasted vaguely of rum, and I had to flag down my waiter twice for ketchup and napkins.
Corner Bistro has personality and decent food; you'll enjoy it if you don't go expecting fireworks.
Pros: Good food, not great, Has personality
Cons: , Long waits after 6, No credit cards
