Bartenders are nice. Apps are good. Bar is a little disorganized. Took awhile to get refills. Bartenders seem to disappear. The place doesn't seem clean though and I was hit with the smell of a funky bar immediately upon entering. My glass had dried out food on it. Floor was dirty too. It just needs a good scrubbing. Surprisingly the place was busy, so I'm unsure why they're not keeping it up.
Really great Irish pub, really couldn't ask for more.
Cornerstone is kind of an old reliable type of place. When you live near by, it''s just easy to pop in for lunch/dinner. The place is huge so you'll be seated pretty quickly most of the time. The food comes out quickly but is only "okay". The portions are big though so you won't go home hungry. Depending on where you sit it can be a bit loud. In a recent visit (7pm on a Saturday) our party was yelling at each other in order to be able to hear. I think they could probably get an overall better beer selection.
Not the greatest food. The inside of the restaurant is so cute, we'll keep coming back for a drink at the bar.
I hosted my 1 year olds birthday party here and the team was such a pleasure to work with. Anna was quick to respond to phone calls and emails and provided all the details needed. The staff on the day of the event were very professional and accommodating. I highly recommend for private parties.
If you want to enjoy the best price and tasty food you HAVE to come here! Excellent service and food. Also have dinning outside and super clean recommended. Presentation and packaging for take out is great as well as the tasty food inside. Oh ~~~ the Berry Sangria . Thanks to all the friendly staff members and great food! I wish I could give you You really helped me through COVID-19. FYI I drive 25minutes just to get there and I will do it again tomorrow
Excellent, fresh food ... wonderful staff. We love this restaurant .
Awsome beers and food,come hang with Larry,or John,they make your time at the bar worthwhile
Had a great experience there for a business dinner as I was able to use the private room.. I was very happy with both the food and service. We will definitely have more business dinners at the Cornerstone.
I go to trivia every Tuesday and have made an arch nemesis out of a bunch of old ladies. They mock me and my friends regularly and try to hit on us as to waver our focus. Every week we go to war and sometimes I wonder if any of us really come home. The wings are great.
Had a great time on country night, however bartenders were very unattentive and rude, especially the male bartender tonight.
Nice atmosphere. Brunch is great. Just dont be here too late on a Saturday.... all the young party animals come out are are pretty rowdy/rude.
Really tasty bar snacks and even a few healthier options too. I ll be back.
Location di "stop send the email to my mom" by the Dives!
Great bartenders, good food and good atmosphere. Overall it was a fun to be here.
The Cornerstone offers a fantastic atmosphere and an easy to reach location. I ate with friends there last night and from the moment we walked through the door we were greeted by a very pleasant host who greeted us immediately and promptly seated us in the upper area of the restaurant.
Once seated our waitress came right over to the table to take our drink order which was brought to us expediently and accurately. As the table was engaged in conversation the waitress gave us time to look over the menus and decide on our order, in fact she had to stop back more than once as we ordered appetizers before our meal to give us more time to decide, all the while she was pleasant and professional.
Once we started ordering the waitress offered suggestions to those in our party who could not quite make up their mind which sped everything along. We ordered mozzarella sticks and Spinach dip for appetizers which were both very good.
A member of our group showed up late and his food came out exactly how we wanted it and we
Were able to pull up another chair without delay. This is definitely the type of establishment I want to come back to as both service and food was excellent and a fairly good value for the money. Additionally there are enough items on the menu that even the pickiest of eaters will find something they like so your entire party will leave happy.
Our burgers were very good, our server was very nice, the music was pleasant, the evening was warm and the tables were socially distant. We had an enjoyable meal.
Great local beer and burger place. Wed is "Wing Night" and the wings are really good. 50 wings for $20. Can't beat that. Recommend.
The food was delicious and our server, Manush, did a great job
Good food, pleasant service, reasonable prices. Parking can be challenging depending on time and day.
Nice place to just go and hang out for a bit. Nice bar. Sometimes a little pricey. Not a 5 star because we went there for trivia night and we couldn't hear the announcer at all from where we sat and there was a group of kids smoking at the table next to us. Strange
So much fun on Thursdays! Great drinks specials and awesome food...
Good food great service. Brunch is great. Booked my daughter's upcoming baby shower! Amanda was great to work with!
Cornerstone is legitimately THE bar to go for a weekend pick up or a one-night-stand. There are ALWAYS good/decent prospects for men or women here. Basement doesn't open until later on at night and even when the basement is open, older groups hang out or stick to the upstairs where the wilder and younger crowd head downstairs. During the day, the food is actually REALLY good and the location is easily accessible at all times for parking. Drinks are reasonably priced so you won't spend a fortune on a few drinks. Somewhat sleazy but still a great spot, only problem worth docking a star in the rating is that it's almost always the same crowd, so piss a girl off this weekend, you'll run into her again the next.
Love coming here for the brunch buffet. Such a good price for bottomless mimosas, Bellinis, coffee and all you can eat breakfast and some hot foods (pastas, carving station, and baked goods). They're always accommodating here, even with a party of 12 for brunch at the last minute (few days notice, lack of planning on my part, oops!). The only qualm would be the seating arrangement for my large party, but that was kind of my fault, so I wouldn't consider that something to go off of. Definitely go for the brunch and ambiance, there is also a 2nd floor bar area which is really cool but haven't had enough of the food or drinks to comment on that.
It is a big place and very unique. It feels like an old building although I must confess I don't know the actual history. It was my first time since I don't live that close, but I was very pleasantly surprised. It was quiet when I got there with groups of people hanging out and chatting over drinks. My friends arrived and after a while a dance area opened by a second bar downstairs. It was fun and the people there seemed to all be fun and respectful people. It was after my bedtime cause I'm an old man so we decided to call it a night, but it also seemed like more people were arriving when we left so it probably gets a little crazy there on some nights. I had a very positive experience and would love to go back and try some food because their menu looked pretty solid.
Went for lunch today with a friend...I had pizza which was GREAT...THIN CRUST...personsl favorite. The service was awesome...friendly and not rushed...TIP... the Cappuccino was
FABULOUS...havent enjoyed it as much since I was in Italy!!! Will DEFINITELY be back!!!!
Cool looking multilevel bar/restaurant with fast efficient service. Food was ok but we were happy to score a Friday night table w/o a reservation.
Convenient local bar food place to go for a quick bite out. Interior setup is not your usual bar/restuarant. Think Disney World type of restuarant / pub. At least that's what it reminds me of. The wings are a 8.5 and the filet mignon sandwich are my fav's. My wife usually gets a salad and they all look fresh and delicious unfortunately at a pub, I'm a wings and Stella guy.
Great place- brunch rocks, trivia is fun, staff is my fav
PROS: this restaurant is definitely a lit place to go during the nightlife. There are two bars and plenty of places to sit. They have a live DJ during the weekends and several events. The menu had a good amount to choose from for a place open till 3am. The staff was very nice and helpful as well.
Cons: Parking is very limited and the place gets cramped when everybody is dancing to the music. The prices for their drinks and food are a little to much as well.
OVERALL: I'll definitely go back to this place sometime. It's not my fav place to hit, but it's better than nothing
First off the inside the building is beautiful. I had no idea when I walled in I was in for such a rare find. The rounded walls, the old bar and wrought iron railings were impressive. Even the restroom was unique. Our waiter was quick, knowledgeable and took our orders without writing them down. The food came out in a reasonable amount of time and he knew who ordered what and checked back a couple of times. Definitely service the way service should be. I eat out everyday and haven't had that for a very long time. I highly recommend stopping in.
Went to a birthday party here. Great food and service
I simply loved their dishes. I always get good service here. The place is neat and the staff members are always super nice. Keep up the good work.
I only dropped in for a few minutes to meet my sister. There were a lit 9f people having a good time. I really didn't experience it enough to offer an informed rating.
Very young on the weekend. Older crowds during the week.
It gets crowded in here but the drinks are cheap af. Its mainly the college crowd.
Sunday brunch was delicious, but way too noisy. Sunday brunch and Sunday football don't go together.
Reliable good neighbor burger pub style spot. Great wings plain (not as sauce guy) super crunchy. Also nice staff and did a great job with the kids as well.
Food is great, service is excellent and great place for parties. All my guests loved everything from food to service.
The food was delicious. Great menu, kid friendly. Super sports bar. TVs and games on all over the place. Enjoy!
Great irish bar in town. No frills. Good bartenders.
One of my favorite bars! This place is huge with multiple floors and yet has a cozy feel. Also, there's always great service, good music and a fun vibe, even during the week. The owner and staff are awesome, and John Michael makes the best drinks. They also have happy hour twice a night!
Thanks to Chris and his staff especially Mia. We had a wonderful bridal shower. They were great
Great service excellent food. My 5 year old loves the mac and cheese.
Great appetizers and drinks. Wonderful wait staff...a great place for a Friday evening.
Great area,nice people,excellent brunch selection, the food fantastic! Unlimited Bellini and Mimosas my glass was never empty.
Great energy, gluten free pizza was good, friendly staff, will come back.
Was only here to watch a band on a Saturday night. Band was great. only had drinks and Wings. Was OK the bartenders were good.
Good food, good service and good prices. Nice selection of beers and mixed drinks.
Usually pretty crowded, especially friday and Saturday nights.
The DJ could be better. The music he plays makes me feel like I'm at a middle school dance, I'm not that into it but once you have a few drinks, dancing is inevitable.
OK food served with a snobby attitude. Avoid this place.
Not much from the outside, but step inside...Love the old world atmosphere. Brick. Fireplaces. Iron railings. Beautiful Architectural details. Super friendly staff. Huge bar. 2 floors. Catering a party? Do it here. Food has never disappointed! Happy hour and live music. Especially nice for a cozy winter night out.
Place is great but they are charging 2 99% fee to use a debit or credit card. I wont return.
Sunday brunch. Positives: nice selection of hot chafing dishes, and desserts. Lox with bagels. Omelet and carving stations. Crispy bacon. Negatives: 0melet station could not make fresh eggs, only had mix. Waffles were undercooked, as was the French toast. Hot fruit topping was simple apple compote, not much flavor.
Had a good dinner with great appetizers. Server was pleasant and efficient.
Love the Cornerstone. .The staff is wonderful, Larry, Shaun , Luke are Great! The food is so so Good. We are treated like royalty . Love the Cornerstone. from June in Hillsdale.
My boyfriend and I were visiting the Township of Washington for 5 days and this was a $6 uber from our Airbnb. The Cornerstone became our watering hole for our whole visit. They had a very entertaining live band on Saturday. The Asian dumplings and boneless chicken wings were fantastic. The bartenders and owners treated us as if we were regulars here for years. We made new friends, traded emails and look forward to seeing them again.
Food is not good. The place was empty. I would not go back.
