I checked out The Corner Bar & Grill last night after seeing some good online reviews, and overall it was a solid experience with a cozy neighborhood feel. The space is smaller but very welcoming and definitely feels like a local hangout spot. When you walk in, the specials board is front and center, including their Burger of the Month, which is what I ordered. Mine featured goat cheese, spinach, strawberry compote, and jalapeños. The flavor combination was unique and really worked well together, and the burger itself was juicy. Personally, I would have loved a bit more char for those crispy edges, but the flavors were definitely there. It came with rosemary fries that were thin, crispy, and generously seasoned. I added a side of hot honey for dipping, which ended up being an unexpectedly amazing combo. The restaurant has a great beer selection, plenty of TVs for sports, fun retro-style décor, and soft lighting that creates a relaxed atmosphere. Even at 9 PM, there were families with kids dining, so it feels very family-friendly rather than a late-night bar scene. Noise levels were low enough that conversation was easy, which I really appreciated. Bathrooms were also exceptionally clean. My main hesitation was pricing. A quesadilla was around $15 and my burger was $20, which pushed dinner for one person with a drink and tip to about $35. While that seems comparable to nearby spots like Boston's, it felt a bit high for casual bar-style dining. Parking is limited, but the location is convenient, just minutes from I-75 and surrounded by other restaurants. Service was amazing. We were sad immediately and she checked back often and said what her favorite thing on the menu was. Overall, good food, creative menu options, and a comfortable atmosphere. With a little refinement and maybe slightly better value, this could easily become a regular stop. read more

All the food here is amazing. We typically sit at the bar, but service is great at a table as well. we've never had a bad experience or even a mediocre one at corner bar read more

Fun bar with good food and plenty of games to play. Definitely excited to go back and would recommend to my friends to try as well.

The food is great and my parents live the vibe but on Fridays try not to sit near the stage because karaoke is very loud I'm done yapping read more

We were having a hard time finding a table on a Friday night so we stopped in here. The food was quite good. The prices were good. It's a bar so it has that vibe with the televisions and jammed feel but it was good! Our server was top notch. We'll be back. read more

We eat here often, it is a great local eatery and bar. The service is terrific and the food is excellent.

Our family really enjoyed our dinner here- we ordered the burgers and my son had the chicken sandwich. The service was great- friendly, prompt and helpful. The atmosphere is casual and fun with concert posters on the walls. read more

All-time horrible nachos for $18. Steer clear of the Chos. Server was nice but I can't get over these Chos.

Great food. Great service. Great atmosphere. Great staff. Can't say one bad thing about this place

I was recommended to get a burger and fries here, and it did not disappoint (especially for a to go order too). Service was exceptionally friendly despite being busy on a Friday night. The fries, despite looking average, were far from it. Great seasoning (though hard to tell by the picture), and were a great surprise. A fun place that I will definitely return to! read more

Corner Bar & Grill - a hamburger and french fries - Gastropubs Near Me - Fenton, Michigan

Check out the Brussels Salad...mixed greens topped with fantastically grilled brussel sprouts, bacon, goat cheese & served with a jalapeño honey vinaigrette. This is a phenomenal salad! The lemon drop martini & live music were also wonderful. Nachos and bonsai balls were not our favorites. read more

This place has the best cheeseburger in town, hands down! Not to say that their other food isn't fantastic, like the shaved ribeye nachos, the brick chicken, or the poutine, the the cheeseburger is PERFECT. Cooked to perfection, just the right amount of vegetables, a nice slice of american cheese...perfect. Make this a stop on your next night out. They've got a fantastic ambiance, great music, killer vibe, and incredible food. They've even got a fantastic weekend brunch. Your mouth will be happy you ate here! read more

The food, the ambiance, the music.... All in to making a difference in bars and entertainment venues.

Very nice gastro pub located on the outskirts of Fenton. The food menu is a bit limited but what they do make they make very well. The menu includes eight diverse starters, some salad options, a couple main entree's and a decent selection of sandwiches. for our meal we had the Krispy Brussel sprouts, Ribeye Nacho and their classic burger With add on bacon. Generally speaking all the food was well prepared and very tasty. The brussel sprouts were made with red wine vinagrette with candied walnuts and crispy capers. This dish was absolutely delicious and a must get if you are at this restaurant. The nacho as the name implies is made with ribeye steak and numerous fresh ingredients where the combined ingredients equated to a very flavorful dish. Lasty the classic burger was large, well made and very tasty in its own right and was accompanied by Rosmary fries. Speaking of the fries, these were the standout of this dish for me where they were crunchy with nice seasoning with the Rosemary seasoning adding another layer of flavor that takes these fries to my happy zone! Relative to the restarant itself it has a cool contemporary eclectic vibe to it with tv's in key area's so you can catch the big game while enjoying your meal. Service was friendly and prompt with great follow-up. overall this was a great dining experience for us and one that you should experience for yourself if you are in this area. Five stars read more

Stopped in with my child and mom for lunch on our own way to Crossroads Village and Huckleberry Railroad. The brunch menu was on which had something for anyone. $7 kids meals, mine had pancakes which came with bacon and choice of side. They were just how we like them, crispy sides and all. My vegetaraian benedict was super yummy; the poached eggs were some of the best prepared I've had in a while and the asparagus, spinach, jalapeño hollandaise (subtle) came together so very well. My mom enjoyed her burger and fries. They were quick to accomodate her dietary request. Perfect for hangovers but equally as good for really good food - even for kids if you don't mind a rock bar setting. Server was friendly and thorough. Will definitely return if in the area! read more

Sunday brunch was terrific. CBG Hash was excellent as was the Strawberry/Rhubarb pancakes. Food was served within minutes of ordering despite the full restaurant. read more

Picture perfect patio morning. Friendly service. Shared a shaved beef ? Omelette- it shouldn't be advertised as shaved beef - possibly 2 kid sized pieces of meat in entire omelette. Still rest of ingredients made for a good dish. Added in kid sized portion of French toast - came with2 pieces of bacon and tasted good. Washed down with 2 mimosas. Not sure it was a $50 breakfast- with tip. read more

Great place to get a good meal and drink for a reasonable price. I've had salmon, Thai shrimp, fish tacos, and brussel sprouts (not on the same night lol) and all were good. Decent beer selection. Place has a bar and grill rock band vibe. It's clean and service is ok, but not quite as friendly as I'd like. It's always been busy but never crowded on my visits. I think it's a pretty big local hangout. Live music some nights too. read more

Great food, I was there with my retired friends. We all loved the food, and experienced a different experience

My lovely wife and I had lunch here today and were not disappointed. Food quality was great and Riley provided us with courteous and friendly service throughout the hour long visit. The place was very crowded but the efficiency and speed of service was excellent. We both agree that we will return another time... read more

Great environment and great food! Had a brussel / bacon salad with chicken and it was amazing. Fries are also super good, will be going back! read more

Our breakfast here was SPOT ON! I got the breakfast poutine. Father got the biscuits and gravy. Server was super nice, restaurant was quiet and nice. read more

There Brussels spouts-and the classic burger are the best!! You have to try them. On Friday and Saturday nights there is local live music, so you can make a Night of it with drinks, appetizers, dinner and entertainment. read more

I'm giving this restaurant five stars because I love the owner he's always kind always smiling... And the food is always incredibly good the rosemary fries just out of this world !!! So the owner five stars the food five stars all the other stuff I've ever encountered five stars!!! BUT!!! sadly when I was there on Saturday 9/11/ 2021... The young man behind the bar was short, unfriendly and honestly the reason why I would never go back and sit at that bar. Unfortunately if I walk in there tomorrow and see that young man ..I will go sit at a table, this is a critique coming from a woman that has been in the bar business as a bartender for over 20 years and dislike trashing fellow bartenders... no way would my former employers keep me if I behaved the way that young man did. I don't think I've ever had such unpleasant service to the point of making me uncomfortable and the person I was with and the man that sat by us was treated the same way and dumbfounded by that bartenders behavior... I understand having a bad day but when you're in this kind of Business... Leave your drama or hangover at the door and do your job. read more

This place came highly recommended to us. Service was good but food was very average. There were two pieces of hair towards the bottom of my fries.Soda's are overpriced. So, overall everything was average at best. read more

An absolutely amazing time go here weekly for lunch the food is fresh fresh! I am never disappointed!

First time visiting and it's Taco Tuesday! Specials on Margaritas ($5) and tacos ($2) are making this a go to for regulars. Personally, I found the margaritas "eh" and the tacos "ok". We also ordered the Poutine Fries (a fantastic mix of rosemary seasoned fries and cheese curds topped with delicious jalapeño gravy) and the green pork chili (to die for!). I had an Old Fashioned which was ok, and a decent Whiskey Sour. As of right now my tip would be to stay away from the specials, order of the regular menu and allow yourself to be surprised by the mixed drinks. Will be back to try out more things and update my review, so stay tuned. read more

The service has been good. I enjoy the food options. Good burgers and fries. Ribeye nachos and some good Mac as well. Downside: whenever the doors open a blast of cold air comes thru the joint in the winter. read more

A great restaurant hidden in a strip mall! Once you get inside don't let the size of the joint fool you...their food is out of this world! My wife and I have been there for brunch, lunch, dinner and late night numerous times over the years and have never been disappointed! Most recently (this past weekend) we were there with friends for brunch. My omelette was my wife's eggs Benny looks delicious. Did I mention the brunch drinks? I can confidently say they are on par with the phenomenal food. My Irish coffee was fab and my wife loved the Bloody! Justin has created quite the gem in Fenton. Highly recommended! read more

One of my favorite local brunch spots! They have a great peach mimosa, and the chicken waffles are to die for! It's a small little place so get their early for brunch because sometimes it's gets busy and it's hard to get a table! read more

The food was just okay. I had the steak eggs Benedict. The steak was old (pre-cooked). We also had the cinnamon roll pancakes. It had the icing but nothing else that resembled a cinnamon roll. It didn't taste freshly made either. I don't plan to return read more

First impression was not a good one. The kitchen ran out of the ingredients for my Mac & Cheese, Midway through making it. So my friend received hers which was made normal, then I receive mine which was dry and crusty. How they can bring one normal one and one wrong one to the same table is hilarious. I'm obviously going to notice this huge difference and it's going to make my dining experience a negative one. Just another remedy, overpriced, underwhelming Fenton option. read more

my friend and I were going to eat there today, and since there was only two of us, we were offered to sit at the bar. They would not give us a four top table, even though we were the first in line with several people behind us. They sat everyone else and told us we could have a seat at the bar. . customer Service everything and I work at a large hospital and I will spread the word about how we were treated!! read more

Always good music and fast drinks! Food is always a hit! Staff is always welcoming. Owner is super cool.

Everything about class Midwest bar food but worse. Philly cheesesteak had a Kroger deli roast beef vibe. Fries only taste like salt. All with Birmingham prices, such as 17 dollars for a burger and fries. Mostly a bar vibe, and they get one extra star for occasionally having live music. Decent craft beer list in bottles and a couple drafts. read more

Sunday brunch menu is incredible! A great variety and several vegetarian options as well! Staff is always friendly and attentive and the food service is quick. I brought my sister there for brunch this past weekend and she loved it! She said "who would have thought a little corner bar like this would have such a wonderful menu and good food?" My husband and I love the standard menu as well and go quite often for dinner or late lunch on the weekends. The rosemary fries are awesome! read more

First time going to Corner Bar last night. We live in the neighborhood, so thought it would be fun to check the place out. Walked in and there was a couple in front of us waiting to be seated. The place seemed busy, but not slammed. It took several minutes, but the hostess eventually came up and showed them to their table. She didn't look at us or acknowledge us at all. We assumed she'd come back momentarily to seat us, or take our name, or ask how many were in our party...but she didn't. We waited, and waited, and waited. Waitresses walked right past without so much as a look. Someone behind the bar saw us waiting and didn't react at all. We stood at the door for 10 minutes, no joke, no exaggeration, and still nothing. Again, the place was busy, but not slammed. Tables were turning over. People leaving. We were being patient, just waiting for someone to greet us, welcome us, recognize we were there, identify we were waiting for service, even gesture that it would be a few minutes -- but nothing. Wouldn't have taken much effort to keep us there waiting if someone had just come by and said SOMETHING, ANYTHING. But that never happened, so we left. We went somewhere else and had a great meal. We won't ever come back to Corner Bar. Don't want to patronize a place that isn't interested in our business. read more

Had been wanting to stop here for a few years. Luckily they were the only bar open on Christmas Day. I love the decor! The lady that made my drinks was amazing. I didn't want a plain old beer. She made me a custom pineapple screwdriver! Amazing!!! Will differently going back!!! read more

My children took me here for Mother's Day. The only complaint was my order. While it was very good, there was a serious lack of avocado. One would assume you would get 2 pieces of toast with at least one whole avocado for $12. I have included a picture and to be honest, I laugh everytime I see the "avocado toast". The restaurant was pretty nice for a "corner bar" and my boys frequent it often after work. The food was delicious and I'm sure I will visit again. read more

Randomly stopped here for a late lunch and was pleasantly surprised. Headed home from being up North and we needed fuel! The food was great! I ordered Brussel sprouts as an appetizer and was pleasantly surprised. I love Brussels but never had them with walnuts and capers, 2 ingredients that are not my favorite. WOW talk about delicious, the walnuts took on an almost sweet flavor. Very tasty. For our meal my husband and I both had bibles burgers, they were delicious and cooked perfect. My son had the chicken fingers and fries and he ate his whole plate. He really liked the fries. We would definitely return if in the area. Good service and a cool decor too. read more
