I had been waiting to try The Corner Store for quite some time and finally did the other day. The restaurant is fairly small and very popular so be sure to get there early. Bottomless mimosas were good and although at times took awhile food refills, nonetheless we had our fill. I had the breakfast sandwich which was delicious, large and included a plate full of potatoes. Others had the Benedict which was also very good. Service was friendly and food was prompt. I would definitely go back here. Their lunch menu liked good as well. Reasonably priced.
Both of my experiences here have been quite pleasant — one indoors, one outdoors. The service has been prompt and friendly, and actually far exceeded expectations. The food has been outstanding; I was with quite a large group once and no one was disappointed with their food, from the grits to the eggs Benedict options to salads. The recent addition of bottomless mimosas was much hailed by my group, as was that both still and sparkling water are available on tap. I will definitely be more of a regular here after my second visit.
My wife found this place, so I didn't really have any expectations going in. Even if I did this place would have exceeded them. The staff was super professional and on their game. I even saw them wiping down the floor and picking up food that had fallen right away. The food was fantastic, I loved everything I tried. They have a selection of craft soda's (I got the draft root beer). We split the an appetizer of PB&J with a grit cake and pulled meat and then each got the burgers as the main course. You should definitely add this to your list of places to try. It's a little pricey (about 25 per person when it's all said and done) but worth it.
Dropped by for dinner and a drink. They've changed their menu a bit, but it is still sandwiches, sides, a few entrees. The drinks are well made. They do the classics well (I had a great Manhattan), but have some special cocktails too. They also have grown-up ice cream drinks, which are quite tasty.
Great little spot next to the City Target. They have a really nice enclosed outdoor area, which is nice even when it is a little chilly outside. My partner and I came here for lunch. We shared the burger and a polenta special and it was scrumptious. I tried their cucumber soda, which was delicious and refreshing! The staff was friendly and very attentive, it might have been because there was not that many people there (it was during off-peak hours). The place has a really nice modern feel with an open kitchen. I will definitely be visiting this place again soon.
Oh Corner Store, you are just wonderful. Wonderful service, wonderful cocktails, wonderful neighborhoody atmosphere, and the BEST burger I have ever had. It has bacon jam on it, you guys. The bun has the perfect amount of springiness, not too flat and not too loafy. I believe there's some sort of an aioli concoction to seal the deal. Just ... just wonderful.
If you're in the mood for a cocktail, according to everyone who has ever liked Bloody Mary's theirs is one of the best. I hate them and always opt for the Pickled Paloma, which has the perfect balance of sweet and bitter. Highly recommended.
Had a late lunch here on a bright say in SF. Food was delish, great service, nice urban (heated if you'd like it to be) outdoor patio. Great decor, love the open kitchen, fantastic seasonal menu. Known for their biscuits, but didn't try them this round. We did have the coolant colored house made cucumber soda, which was superb (you do need to love cucumber flavor tho).
Really good burger, and unexpectedly so, as there are a handful of other establishments on the top SF burgers list. The bacon jam really killed it; I like that much better than an actual slice of bacon! I rank The Corner Store burger above Serpentine, which says a lot.
Other-food-wise, the brussels sprouts were awesome. The escabeche was good but I thought the carrots were too crunchy. Fries were yummy.
Non-food-wise, the service was terrible. I think it was just the server that we got. She was very inconsistent (took 10 minutes to come by and take our order, but immediately served the table next to us), forgot sharing plates/utensils, etc.
tl;dr come here for the awesome burger, and hope that you get one of the more attentive servers.
So great!!! Jessica is the best :-) Fantastic spot for brunch. Delicious food and great mimosas! Just be prepared to wait a little if you don't get there early since it's small yet very popular!
The food is very tasty, the service quite friendly, and the wait is not that bad. The best thing about this spot are their booze shakes and beverages; delicious. 4 stars because there is better food for the price but you will enjoy it if you eat here.
