Wonderful experience but if you have a gift certificate make sure you bring cash. Waiter gave my boyfriend and I a hard time because he thought the remaining balance did not reach a 10$ minimum. We had a $50 gift certificate, the remaining balance was $11.75 should have be able to use the remaining balance on card with tip. My boyfriend had to leave and go to the cash up the road. After a few mins someone who had a reservation who really didn't ( person was previously at the bar alone then asked for a table cause her friend was coming last minute) was waiting for the table. The manager made me get up I then said they should write the rules of any remaining balance on gift certificate that way costumer knows. Will not be returning such a stressful rude experience and I just wanted a calm low-key night out. read more

Love this place. A nice local run seafood restaurant with great food and welcoming people. From the locals at the bar to the waiters and managers, everyone is very friendly and helpful. A big plus form me when I have 3 hungry kids that are acting up. I've had the roast beef galley which and the fried clams and both were great. My favorite thing about the Galley though is the vintage nautical decor. I always appreciate places that refuse to give up the heritage that makes Long Island great. When there's a fish up on the wall, ship's steering wheel, some orange lanterns, count me in! read more

I came here a few times and it was hit or miss each time. I usually get the Turkey burger and it comes with endless salad, a side if pasta and a choice of a pitcher of alcohol, we choose Sangria which is always sweet but delicious. The turkey burger itself was usually pretty good, but sometimes too mildly seasoned. The atmosphere is low key, nautical but kind of like a bar or applebees etc, which is nice but it can get roudy since people often come with families or big groups and order pitchers of alcohol. The reason why I havn't been here in quite some time and am leaving only 3 stars is because the last time I came here, the food was just OK and the person I was with unfortunetely witnessed an employee who had poor hygiene. read more

If you are hungry, this is the place to go! They have EVERYTHING! Great burgers, inc Bison, veggie, etc. Every entree comes with a salad, side and a carafe of wine or pitcher of beer. They run lunch and dinner specials what change every month. Very reasonable prices. read more

My husband & I LOVE this place, as do our adult children & their families. Their menu is so diverse, even the pickiest of our grandchildren find something they like - but if you have a special request they are more than accommodating. The food is delicious and reasonably priced, with generous portions. The owners & staff are so friendly & the restaurant is well maintained & comfortable. I highly recommend enjoying a meal here. read more

this was the first time I came to this restaurant. I was impressed by the service and the food. I had the ribeye steak, it was excellent, cooked perfectly. I started with the miller lite bear, l was surprised, when a small pitcher appear. I had the garden vegtable barley soup. the salad was included with the meal. I was able to subsitute cole slaw for the potato. I finished the meal with espresso and the white chocolate truffle. I did go over my weight watchers daiky points, it was worth it. our waiter was extremely helpful. they did not charge my sister-in-law for her soup when she mentioned that she did not like it that much. read more

I've been a regular customer for some time. Had dinner there tonight with friends. I downloaded their new app for the iphone. Unfortunately, after dinner, the app would not allow a visit to register, as a credit was given for downloading the app------- That is all well and good, but when I spoke to the owner, Gerry, he did not seem to care much---all he could say is "sorry"--Shame on him for letting a customer leave disappointed. VERY poor customer relations!! Upon reading some of his replies to other customers here on YELP I can see that's his way of doing business---oh well. read more

Corner Galley is always consist with the quality of their food and drinks. I've been coming here for years and they never disappoint. The free first mini pitcher of beer wine or soda is always a plus. I had the rosé on my most recent visit and it was perfect. I had the chicken sandwich on garlic bread with mozzarella. It was huge and oh so delicious! My husband had the weiner schnitzel special and said it was very tasty. We always love coming here and will always be loyal customers. read more

There's a reason why most people post high ratings of corner galley. My girlfriend and I stopped in tonight after a wedding earlier and I haven't been here in a few years. They were as consistent as they were the last time I was here. My girlfriend LOVED it and the service was absolutely excellent, the waiter literally read our minds on when we wanted to-go boxes and the check... we didn't have to ask. But that's what i usually expected of corner galley. I've always received great service and great food and I HIGHLY recommend if you're thinking of trying it out, do it. You won't be disappointed. Any of their melted sandwiches are amazing, I get the chicken sandwich fried melt and their onion rings are GREAT. Try them. Great deals on beers and wine if you have an entree too. Check them out. read more

This a very family oriented place. Is very casual. Good food AND with and adult entree you get a kid's meal free. I loved the coconut shrimp. They offer live music some nights and other events. read more

I've read some of the negative reviews of Corner Galley, which has prompted me to write my own review. Personally, I really like CG. Granted, the decor is dated and there's a lot of wood paneling. But the same thing can be said about many great Irish bars (check out McSorley's) - so beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Corner Galley has been a fixture in Massapequa for decades. It's a neighborhood gem that caters mostly to locals and still provides a good meal at a decent price. In a world where your local dining choices are mostly limited to cookie-cutter chain restaurants, it's nice to be able to relax with family or friends in a unique local establishment. The food is very good and the portions are generous. Meals include all you can eat salad and a free pitcher of beer or wine. Refills are a buck. They have excellent live entertainment on the weekends (usually a solo singer or a small band). Drinks at the bar are reasonably priced. The staff is friendly and welcoming. To all the naysayers... Relax. We know that CG isn't LeBernardin. It's not trying to be. It is what it is - a really good local restaurant that keeps its customers coming back year after year, decade after decade, with good food, good service and good value. read more

Chris is the best! Food is always fantastic! Upscale taste, good price! Friday has amazing live music. My favorite date night spot! A hidden gem of Massapequa read more

Corner Galley - Pistachio Ice Cream! - American Near Me - Massapequa, New York

This place is a small neighborhood spot. It's got a menu with a lot of choices. Not only that, you get a free pitcher of Beer or Wine with your entree. You can't beat that! The service staff is always really nice and the atmosphere is casual. I'll say this place is consistent because it is. And perhaps the food may not be considered 'fine dining' and the atmosphere could use some cleaning up and some brightening - but I know what I'm going to get each and every time I go there and I know I'm going to enjoy it. :) There is a small lot in the back for parking but it's usually fills up so you'll have to resort to street parking. *shrugs* No big deal for me. The prices are good because you get a free salad and the pitcher of beer or wine I mentioned earlier. Def give this local spot a try! I bet you'll like it! PS - Good Burger and Steak Fries! read more

Really like a 3.7. But their food is pretty good especially the wings and sandwich melts. You get a free pitcher of beer with your entree which is even better. Pleasant waitstaff. read more

This place is odd. Not odd in a bad way, just different. You walk in and you immediately feel like you have left New York and have been transported to Minnesota (or some other mid-western random place lol). There is not much in the way of decor or ambiance, but I must say this place was packed. It was over an hour wait, which is generally a really good sign of what is to come food wise. We finally sat down and on the table you will find all of your salad accoutrements (bacon bits (yay!), croutons, onions, various yummy dressings etc). Then they bring out the salad which is basically lettuce and cucumbers but was suprisingly good once the toppings and dressing were added on. For an app we got hot wings which were delicious and totally unexpected! For dinner everyone at my table got some variation of a burger. I got a cheese burger. It was good. The fries were good as well. **However, the best part about this restaurant has to be the pitcher of either beer, wine, sangria or soda that comes with your meal!!** We had about 10 pitchers of various things on the table I was feeling pretty great by the end of the meal! And for a dollar extra you get any additional drink you want! Prettttty awesome if you ask me! The check came and we were all floored how cheap it was! Overall - fun, different, unique place. Would go back. read more

I am proud to say that I am one of the Corner Galley's "non-human" regular customers. And to be honest im very happy to be a regular at this wonderful newly removated establishment. The owners and the staff at the galley are always very polite and welcoming. Another thing me and my family love about this place is they are clean and the deals they offer are outstanding. The food that they offer are always exactly what we expect, and never had a problem. I would 100% refer this place to anyone looking for a great place to eat in massapequa. I will always be a regular customer at the Corner Galley and continue my great experience there with my family and friends.dont forget expect a wait to be seated on weekends so make sure to make a reservation, but my family and I dont mind waiting since we love coming here and having a great time with friends, family and the friendly employees!! read more

Corner Galley - Sauerbraten - American Near Me - Massapequa, New York

This is a small family restaurant with a typical menu of seafood and italian fare. I went here for the first time for Father's Day. It's a very nauticual themed place with a casual feel. They have a pretty big menu, mostly seafood and various cuts of beef. I wasn't feeling like eating red meat that night so I stuck with one of my favorite items... shrimp. They give a huge leafy green salad with dinner which was nice. And also my dad loves the Miller Light pitchers for $2. On some nights they have musicians playing which is nice. Last night there was a performer that definitely lightened up the place. As for the food: 2 stars. It wasn't bad or anything, but overall it kinda seemed bland. I really wish my Shrimp Scampi had more of a kick to it. And the pasta was overcooked. read more

Go here for a local great meal I have had around! Get the cordon blue sticks and the New Orlean style mussels and you will be in your glory!

Corner Galley is a cozy corner restaurant/bar with a few great features. I really liked 1. the wine - every night (?) they offer free wine with each entree. 2. the parking in the rear 3. the chicken and the steak melts = delicious. 4. the friendly staff 5. see #1 Good food, good price, and good times. read more

First time there. We got there and looked for parking. There is a dedicated lot in the rear, but it was full at 7pm. We walk in to over hear a 40 minute wait for a party of 4, but were seated right away for 2. All-u-can-eat salad and pitcher/carafe of beer/wine with every meal is amazing. White was fruity and easy to drink. Beer was Miller lite. Fountain drinks are free all night. apps around $8-$12, entree from $15-$25, remember it comes with salad and drinks Food was good and there was plenty. I could only eat half of my Salmon Wellington. Service was a bit on the slow side, but for the place being PACKED it was great. Server was ALWAYS on the floor. I will definitely be going back again. read more

We had been here years ago even had a wedding shower here but had forgotten about the place til Saturday night. Was as great as it ever was included solid and beer and soda wine my wife got a blue burger and loved it, I got the fried clams done perfectly. So much food no room for desert. Go you're going to love it!! read more

The Corner Galley has been around since the late 70's offering casual dining with large menu to choose from . They have Burgers, Seafood, Pasta, Chicken dishes..there's something for Everyone. The best part of dining here is You get Unlimited Salad served at your table and for you drinkers For .99 cents you get Unlimited Beer, Wine and Soda! On Weekends expect a 45 minute wait for a table and Parking is limited the lot is very small I always park across the street. read more

We recently moved to the area and after an initial great experience here, had high hopes of making this one of our regular spots-- especially because they have a great deal going where you get a free pitcher of beer, wine or sangria with your entree. Came back with a group of six, excited to show our friends this wonderful gem we thought we found in our new neighborhood. We did arrive later than the dinner rush, but didn't think too much of it being that it was 9:00pm on a Saturday and their kitchen hours were listed until 11:00pm. During our visit, we were treated so disrespectfully, that any hope we had of making this our new watering hole completely shattered. For starters, we were rushed the entire time we were there. It was pretty obvious they wanted to leave early because at 10:00 (an hour before closing) they began to turn lights off in our section and cleared off all the tables around us. The busboy stood over our table like a hawk to see what he could clear away and our waitress muttered under her breath constantly while at the table, saying things like, "This is a nightmare!" and then turning around and giving us the fakest smile. A couple of the burgers were not cooked as ordered, but we felt so uncomfortable that nobody dared send anything back. The worst was when we received our check. With everyone having had their own pitcher of beer, we were a little tipsy. We assumed our server would ask if we wanted separate checks, or even if we were ready for our bill, but she just slammed it on the table and then threw a tantrum when we offered her multiple cards. She even had the audacity to show us where to sign on each credit slip, like we were children, in the most patronizing and condescending tone I've ever heard. And then the icing on the cake? As we were walking out at 10:30, well before their closing time on a Saturday night, the manager (or owner, for all I know) said "next time, chew a little slower!" I was so embarrassed I even talked this place up to our friends, let alone brought them there. Two stars because the wings were decent and the booze is cheap. You're better off going to any other bar in the area though if you want bar food. The service, on the other hand, is abysmal and doesn't even deserve a star. read more

If for some unknown reason I was framed for a horrendous crime and given the death penalty I would hold out a glimmer of hope for one thing. Not a pardon from the President or Governor, but the ability to order steak tidbits and fries with a side of brown gravy from Corner Galley as my last meal. I've been a customer since 1992 when my brother Chris moved close and introduced me to the most consistently satisfying dinning experience I would enjoy. As the pitchers of beer flow into my third decade of patronage so does my affection for this ode to a cure for all that ails a parched and famished world. Stay gold Corner. Stay gold. read more

We wanted to like this place. The waitress was amazingly nice. Very helpful. The atmosphere was very relaxing. Then the food came. I ordered the French onion soup. That was delicious. My wife ordered the crab cakes. Half of one cake was fine but the other half was cold. The second crab cake was cold to the touch - it had to be sent back. We both ordered the broiled seafood platter. The food had no flavor at all. The scallops tasted the same as the fish. The stuffed clams just didn't taste right. I left feeling like I got a dinner that was less than acceptable. The waitress felt bad that we weren't happy with the food but it wasn't her fault. If we return we'll be sure not to order the seafood. Perhaps they're better with meat?? read more

I didn't know I needed to respond, I saw no need to get into a back and forth.....but since you called me out for not responding I will try to address each of your comments 1) "As far as being cramped is concerned during dinner time in the rush of customers leaving and tables being reset for new groups tables get jostled around. Sometimes they don't get spaced properly. For that I apologize." The cause of the tables being cramped was not due to them being shuffled around.....the cause was there are too many tables in the area where we were seated - This was confirmed by your staff, they actually complained they couldn't reach the table. Order had to be place over the shoulder, food served over someone, plates picked up over customers shoulders... so you statement about proper spacing is in accurate. 2) As far as the soup...I guess it is a matter of opinion....Your restaurant your recipe my review ! 3) Steak...I guess it is a matter of opinion....Your restaurant your recipe my review ! Good day Best of luck !! read more

We went there for lunch today and the service was great and the burgers were cooked perfectly and nice and juicy. It is nice to sometimes go to a nice family run restaurant with good service and simple, good food, and a friendly crowd. read more

The Corner Galley is a favorite spot of my fiance and myself. The food is great, ( I love the streak tidbits!) the prices are more than fair but the staff and owners set it apart from other restaurants. You would be hard pressed to find a nicer group of people than those who keep The Galley running. And the clientele are some of the most friendly people you could meet. It's always a fun night, especially when you have karaoke and trivia nights plus live music! Do yourself a favor and try it, you'll find yourself becoming a "regular" too! read more

This place is a rare once in a life time find!!! Insane foood and live bands . Wine and beer come with meal.

We went to the corner galley yesterday with a large group (around thirty people). We had a reservation. The service was poor, at best. The lunch menu for a large group was ridiculous. It had three items on it; Shrimp scampi, London broil, and chicken parmesan. With the above, you could get either steak fries or linguine with sauce. I had the scampi, and pasta. The shrimp was severely overcooked, pasta the same and I think the tomato sauce was burnt. My wife had the shrimp and agreed with my assessment. My son had the chicken parm and didn't like it. A friend had the London broil and didn't like it. With this, of course you got salad, coffee or tea and ice cream for dessert. All for the lovely price of $24.95. We used to go to the galley often, but I would not recommend you do the lunch with a large group. read more

After living in Massapequa many years we finally made it here. I am so sorry we didn't come sooner. Not the fanciest place but very comfortable and clean. The tables are spread apart to maintain social distancing. Felt very safe. The food was all delicious. The portion sizes were all very generous. We will definitely be returning soon. read more

I read below that the Corner has been open for 32 years, I thought it was longer but I have been coming here since day one and it never disappoints! Although the prices have creeped up over the years, and what hasn't, you still can't beat the price for salad, entree and a carafe of wine! My steady favorite is the sliced steak on garlic bread with melted mozzarella. Always amazing and cooked exactly how I ask. It's my favorite neighborhood go to place even though I don't live in the neighborhood. Don't ever close Gerry! read more

Came here last week, enjoyed it. There very friendly here, great service. I plan on coming back!

This is the quintessential local go to spot. You cannot beat the pitcher of beer with dinner and I have been there countless times and the food is always spot on. A bit of a hole in the wall but that is definitely part of the charm. Very friendly waitstaff and bartender. Definitely worth stopping in to try out. read more

Has been a staple in massapequa for years. Unlimited salad and drinks with every entree! Although the decor hasn't been updated in seems like forever, it's always nice to walk in and rekindle old memories. Food choice are similar to a diner with numerous options. You can never go wrong with their burger or sliced steak sandwich! Overall it's a unique environment with that nostalgic feel and good American food. read more

Four of us sat down for a quick lunch and were pleasantly surprised. The decor is old and dreary, but that's what I'm looking for in a neighborhood joint when I want a vast menu, affordable seafood and FREE beer. That's right, but a lunch, get a beer. All of the food was hot, well prepared and the staff was friendly without being overbearing. We had a fried seafood platter, open faced roast beef and ribs. All no-frills, solid pub grub. Will definitely be back as this is one of the best values in the area. read more

Love this place. Great family restaurant. Food is great and reasonably priced. Everything comes with a family style salad and drinks. Pitchers of Beer, wine and soda are free. ($1 for beer refills). Kids eat free on Tuesday. We love it. read more

Update: The owner got butt-hurt by me telling him his food is below mediocre (see his comment below). I ran a 5 star Italian restaurant in New Hyde Park for 5 years, so I know how to make good Calamari and good Marinara sauce. This restaurant does not. Avoid this place and their owner who would rather respond like an ass instead of improve upon his restaurants' very sub-par food. Original: My Girlfriend and I are one and done at this restaurant. When we got in, it was packed on a Friday at 7pm, which was a good sign. The food itself was not good. Our fried calamari had zero taste and was fried with oil that definitely needed to be replaced way before our batch of calamari. The marinara sauce for the calamari was horrible and straight out of a cheap supermarket sauce jar. My baked potato had insanely hard skin that I couldn't chew, and my salmon burger had barely any taste as well. My girlfriend said that the chili was okay, so at least she was content with that part of her dinner. Overall, it was a wasted dinner night out. read more

I am absolutely convinced that all the regulars in this place are not actually human, but some sort of sub-species that have had their taste buds stripped from them. Because, I have no clue how anyone can come back to this place, let alone regularly. Yes, the food is *that* bad. I ordered fish and chips, and somehow didn't receive the chips. It's in the freaking name of the dish! How do you get that wrong?! The service was abysmal. The waiter was rude from the moment we walked in. And, he somehow neglected to inform us about the pitcher of beer/wine you receive with your entree. After having to ask (which felt like grudgingly prying the offer out of his hands), he brought us some cheap, plastic tasting sangria which had a measly 2 cherries, and a sliver of orange. Also, the prices are ridiculously high for what you get. You're much better off at a decent diner. read more
