Shawn Bremner

Great atmosphere, food is amazing - Pork schnitzel was perfectly fried delicious great mashed potatoes and a wonderful tasting gravy. Great place to eat in Niagara on the Lake

Arianne

English pub atmosphere. Had a great meal. Waitress very friendly. Reasonably priced

Manas Saksena

Succulent special of the day "the pork szneitzel with mushroom gravy and mashed potatoes " was tasty and fairly priced. Their beer was good and their garden salad sufficed for two. Although a few pestering flies hovered around, this place is a delicious date night if you are out of town. Our waitress was also courteous and attentive. I'd say an 8/10 dining experience.

The quinoa salad was alright but nothing outstanding and the fish and chips I hear was good (looked like a smallish portion for the price). The serviced was really great and they were very accommodating with my many requests to try either the wine or beer. I settled on the Stonewall light and the man on the red lager - both were great!

Rick Morelli

Nice place to stop for a bite to eat & a tasty beverage while u enjoy the beautiful scenery of Niagara on the lake..

Jan Brozek

Tasty fish & chips with a surprisingly delicious red ale. Wife got the quinoa salad that she also really enjoyed with some red sangria. Lovely to sit outside on the covered patio with fans.

Claire Campbell

Cosy bar in Niagara on the lake, friendly staff you can try flights of beer and flights of local wine

Carlos Radic

Food was tasty and came out super quick! Prices were fair too! Left full :) servers were very friendly!

Shannon French

A visit to NOTL always includes a stop to Corks I go for the best Fish and Chips in the Niagara Region By far they are so much more than you could hope for! And the service staff and menu all terrific!

Ester Kataoka

Stopped here during our wine tour. The service was quick and the food was quite tasty. I had the lamb burger it was definitely great.

Jane Morris

Staph food poisoning from lamb burger. Didn’t sleep the night I visited. Girlfriends roast beef ‘special’ which was ‘coming out of the oven medium’ was so over cooked I couldn’t swallow a bite. Drywall. Fun day in NOTL ruined by this dinner. At least I learned to never return.

David Coutts

Wow, amazing food, amazing service, definitely my go-to now in Niagara On The Lake!!

Darragh Egan

20 plus beers on tap and large wine list. good menu selections.

Peter Petya

Dry prime rib on dry bun makes for a dry lunch. Fish and chips we're what you'd expect: a piece of deep fried fish and some fried potatoes: so not worth the 20+ you pay for it including tip and taxes. So if you are looking for some ok food with gourmet prices this is the place.

Ram P

Overall a great experience for ambiance and service. Ordered fish and chips, pork souvlaki, crab cakes as an appetizer and Reif Estate Chardonnay. Fish and chips were excellent. Souvlaki was overcooked and dry. Salad that came with the souvlaki was very good. So the down side to the meal was the souvlaki. That was a fail. Waitress fun fun and full of energy. Check the place out, just avoid the souvlaki.

Michael Foe

Huge disappointment. The meat in the schnitzel and souvlaki was obviously undercoooked. The waitress replaced the schnitzel but not souvlaki (‘that’s the way it should be’ she said.) seriously? Chicken looking pinkish inside is the way it should be? Even when I got more thoroughly cooked schnitzel, it didn’t taste good at all; either the meat is not fresh enough or it’s poor quality but it tasted bad and weird. I really didn’t expect that because 4 years ago we had a great meal at this restaurant; we still have pictures of the lamb shank that they served as their special back then. This time, it was supposed to be a highlight of our long-awaited trip to Niagara-on-the-Lake. Instead it pretty much ruined our day. My daughter said she liked her chicken burger but she had stomach aches for almost an hour afterward which made me worried. I think it’s because her meat was also undercooked. Disgusting.

Bernie Amp

We were warned by our friends not to order the fish and chips. So we ordered the calamari for our appetizer. It was good, but very small portion size. I ordered the lamb burger, my daughter and husband ordered the prime rib sandwich. My lamb burger was a little dry. It came with a generous side of fries. I never tried the prime rib sandwich, so I can't comment on that. Place is a little pricey. But then again, Niagara on the Lake, is a favorite tourist destination in Canada, and one has to expect to pay more :(

Dianna English

Drinks and nibbles for four on Sunday 6th May, 2018. Solid selection of beverages, with good appetisers. Great location and very much enjoyed the front open-air dinning area facing the main street.

Kyra Weichert

My friend and I were visiting Niagara-on-the-Lake from Montréal. We were strolling down Queen Street where a lot of restaurants are and we couldn't find anything that seemed good AND inexpensive at the same time. Corks seemed like a beautiful restaurant just by looking at it from the outside. The weather was nice outside, although cold, we still decided to sit outside. The restaurant was pretty full for lunchtime, even at 3 PM. Their menu is very diversified and the food we had was delicious. My friend went for the pork souvlaki. She said it was truly delicious, very well cooked. I went for the fish and chips, the waitress told me that it was one of their staples, what people went there for. It was very good! One of the best fish and chips I've had in a while. The coleslaw salad had a bit too much vinegar in it for my taste, but the fries were delicious. We also had 2 beers, they were served in huge cups, we couldn't even finish them. All and all, the restaurant is very cosy, definitely worth trying if you're in the area and then strolling down for a walk next to the lake. It's located in a beautiful area!

Michael Mischke

The restaurante is cute and simple, the waitress was great. The hamburger was really delicious and the crispy chicken sandwich was really tasteful. Great option to eat in Niagara on the Lake.

Stan Wang

We had lamb shank and lamb burger accompanied by a local wine. The wine was excellent, the burger too. The shank was a little chewy but overall it was a nice meal. They are open after 10pm so I would definitely recommend it for a late but nice dinner in town. If you order a bottle of wine and can't finish it you can bring it home ;)

Jennifer Bourikas

Nice food and nice place with street view

Michael Sodano

We were in Niagara-on-the-Lake for a girls’ weekend at the end of March 2019. Corks became our temporary neighborhood bar to which we returned three nights in a row. The vegetarian samosas, Mediterranean salad and quinoa salad are delicious. They have a great selection of international and local beers on tap, and the bartender makes fabulous Bloody Marys and fresh raspberry cocktails. The best part, however, is the staff. They are kind, attentive, and work very well together as a team. Huge thank you to Adam, Kenji, Kaitlyn, Kate, Agatha, and anyone else we didn’t get the chance to meet, for helping make this one of our best trips. We highly recommend a stop at Corks. -Kim and Amy

Joana Zghaib

A bit expensive. Don't have the spring rolls. Frozen and doughy, lacking flavour and taste. Otherwise a lovely place for wine and food.

Jacqui

Really nice restaurant in Niagara-on-the-lake. They have a heated patio and lots of seating inside. Great food and drink selection. We ordered the fist and chips and they were delicious!

ubrian perullero

Amazing place to eat 100% reccomend. Food is amazing, and employees are super nice , so if your thinking about going to eat somewhere you should come here!♥️

Herman Fix

Quality food restaurant. If you are looking for a good dinning experience for american style food, this is a good spot. From a good drink selection and excellent location in Niagara on the Lake, this is a good place to go. Parking is difficult as it is on the main street and there are no available parking areas. Also popularity for the place means you can have a wait time to sit and have a meal. But the food can be worth the wait if you arent in a rush.

Lynne Riutta

The fish wasn't the world's best or even close to it. Very small and came out of the kitchen cold.

Tasha Roa

Service was good and staff were friendly and attentive. Food portions were very small and on the expensive side. The quality of the food was only okay.

James Scott

The appetizers were really good, especially the bruschetta and the crab cakes. The salmon was a bit dry as was the steak which we had to send back in exchange for the fish and chips. The service and atmosphere were excellent!

Maureen Linehan

My wife and I went to Corks for dinner. My wife had a hamburger which she enjoyed and I had the "voted # 1 fish and chips" which was truly awful. Frozen chips and wouldn't be surprised if the small portion of fish (soggy) was frozen also. Better quality at the local legion I would think.

Federica De Toni

A bit of a let down with the name, Winebar, definitely a pub not a winebar. Being in wine country we had higher expectations. The food was mediocre and pricy for the quality.

Omar Seraj Kazi

As walk-ups, they were able to accommodate us after a short a short wait at peak time. Really nice spot in their glassed-in eating area. Food was great and service was excellent. Highly recommend.

Fabio Pereira

Good meal and polite friendly staff. Server John was very good too. Looking forward to my next meal here next time I visit NOTL. I'm full now after my fish and chips.

Kristie Buschur

I brought out of town guests to Corks so we can grab some drinks and taste local wine. Our waiter seemed annoyed that we weren't ordering food although this was 3pm on a weekday with plenty of open tables and not a lunch or dinner rush. It was super hot out and I asked for a big glass of water. The waiter asked if he should just bring a bottle for the table and I said that would be great thinking he meant a pitcher or a refillable bottle. The bottle was not large and barely filled the 4 small water glasses on the table and no one came by to offer us any refills. When we got our bill we were charged $5 for ordering "bottled water". Nice selection of wines but I won't be coming back.

Tasty perogies and fish and chips. Large beverage selection. Kid friendly daytime. Good service and enjoyed the patio seating.

Krzysztof Dariusz

Was there this past friday night with my girlfriend the service was Excellent Food was great!!! Would highly recommend !!!

Shannon Gregory

Great food and good service

Lindy Melanson

Nice place, amazing customer service. Must try the icewine shot ( given inside a chocolate shot glass) ! Huge quantity of food.

Taras Pankov

This was a great place for a patio lunch. The covered, yet open, patio area was well sources out. We felt safe and comfortable the entire time we were here. The menu was simple and the drinks were tasty. We had the fish and chips. The fish had a nice, crispy, light batter, but the fries were nothing special. Good portion sizes though.

Bevan Court

Our server was good. We're a little older and two of our party are a on the larger side. When they tried to seat us at a high top we objected and asked for normal height seating, which there was plenty of. Instead of offering us more spacious accommodations they jammed the four of us into a small table that was normally used to seat three. The food was okay, a little overpriced. I had the sausage arrabbiata which tasted okay but had less than 1/8th of a pound of sausage. My wife had the chicken pesto which was supposed to have some veggies in it though she found very few and the chicken tasted rubbery like it was cooked, frozen, then steamed. Tasted that same chicken treatment at another place up here so maybe it's a Canadian thing. Overall I was not impressed. Doubtful that I would return.

Dev

Fantastic restaurant! Friendly serving staff with tasty food! The fish and chips is amazing. Crispy, flavourful and a good portion. The coleslaw is also fantastic. We ordered the crab cakes also and would recommend it too.

Kevin LeClair

Great food, great staff. English style with more options. Beer and wine flights available. I had the chicken curry, yum.

Taylor Ballinger

Food was delicious and fairly priced. I would give a higher review, but service was lacking. Shawna made our experience less than pleasant.

André Bentivoglio

Just an OK place to eat. The cost is higher than average but still in the moderate range. My said the fish and chips were good. I found the philly steak sandwich which was a little tough, mainly because it is cut thick. Service is quick and friendly. Had a bite for lunch.

Tim Christiano

Service was impeccable for a casual restaurant. Was not expecting such a delicious vegetarian meal.. think it was the Mediterranean salad and veggie wrap... was hard not to eat it all.. great portions. I wished the hostess had been a little more accommodating with the patio. Was there with a friend here from Italy. Felt a bit dark at the back and felt a different atmosphere.. more for families or groups of young people I'd say. Would book ahead in future when visiting from Toronto.

John Cockerill

Good food. Attentive wait staff. Try their 'famous' fish and chips.....

David Schult

Fantastic place!! Staff very friendly, felt like home with friends!! Wine flight was amazing!! Great food!! Highly recommend!!! 5 stars all the way!!!!

Angie Sumsum

Cozy bar/restaurant in a rustic town. Perfect for dinner after hitting the Canadian wineries. They don't take American Express so bring cash.

Adam M

Great food. They are not taking reservations but little or no waiting. Excellent, friendly staff. Awesome food.

Adam Meloche

Corks is a friendly establishment... always willing to please. Your food and drinks are always served with a smile. Lots to choose from their adequate menu...Love the food . Sitting out on the fresh air enclosed patio is a joy too... people watching ! Enjoy the ambience

james chard

Cozy little place with good food and nice staff. Ample choice of unbeaten draft beers, some Ontarian vines as well. Their lamb burger is out of this world!

Arnold Alvela

We have been coming to Niagara-on-the-lake for five or six years now and every time we are in town we always go to the the Corks. The food is always great and the atmosphere is always cozy and lovely. Today, after initially considering to try another place to have supper, we ended up going back to the Corks. I ordered their special, roast beef, and my spouse decided to try their lamb curry. My roast beef tasted like those I buy at Zehrs or Food Basics, the kind that you just soak in boiling water for 15 minutes and walla...dinner is ready. Disappointing. The bigger joke was the lamb curry. After 30 seconds of my spouse searching for lamb meat we asked our waitress if they forgot to put the meat on the plate. There was a generous amount of onion ( I swear they use a whole onion on that one meal) and yellow bell pepper and three or four slivers of mushroom on top of the rice but no meat. The waitress went ask the cook, she came back with a tiny container of extra curry sauce explaining the meat is there. THE LAMB MEAT WAS PUREED! It looked like they put it in a blender and made smoothie. Definitely not worth $24 +. On our next visit we will definitely try other restaurants in the area.

Lawrence Graham

Excellent meal and service.

Tony Sommerdyk

Love to come here when in the area; such great food.

Ev Delen

Very disappointing meal, most members of our group were thoroughly disappointed with their meal. Substantial price for very poor quality

Gedd Maracle

Good location, friendly staff but found meal not worth the price paid.

Kirsten Lobb Porteous

Nicest staff ever! I have to go back for another red sangria, and to see these awesome peeps again :)

Scott Morton

Good selection of beer and wine, but pretty expensive. The food was very good, but also kind of pricey. Great atmosphere and overall experience, but we did have to wait quite a while for the bill. Great quality, but you definitely have to pay for it!

Jeff Vogan

Food is excellent, drink choices are awesome and service is on point. Thanks Bekah for making our experience great.

Saeedeh Ghaffari

The best fish & chips I have ever had. That being said, the portions were so good, I left most of the chips so I could enjoy the amazing fish. Perfect amount (just a little) breading, and great flavor. My wife loved her perogies as well. Combined with a choco beer and great prices, it was a great visit.

Clyde Head

Fish and chips disappointing. Maybe because the oil wasn't heated enough. Crust was not cooked thoroughly.Had the makings for a good meal, just seemed to need a bit more frying.

Tapas Easwar

Traditional pub, good food.

Katherine K

Had the souvlaki, very good. My wife had the crab cakes which were nice as well. Not quite a 5, but a good 4.

Aaron Mou

Unassuming for the quality of food. Price point is more than fair for the local restaurants in the direct area. Seafood Pescatore was incredible! Will definitely return.

Melissa Looney

Would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. The hamburger my son ordered tasted as dry as a "cork". Waitress was so rude that she didn't even care when we brought it to her attention, let alone do anything about it. This place is not worth the prices they charge, and they even charge for water!!! After all this we didn't even get to decide how much gratuity we wanted to pay the waitress. She automatically applied her own 15% tip to our bill.

Saima Siddiqui

I had the fish and chips which was average at best, coleslaw was old and my glass had someones lipstick on it! Beer was good hence the stars

Dalida Zoghaib

Service

Al Soboleski

Wish I'd read the reviews before going here. Food was ridiculously priced. Imagine mediocre pub food for double the price. The fish and chips are 15$ for one piece and a handful of McCain fries. The appetizer was a joke. For 11$ we got four teensy cheese bites. We even ate the garnish in an attempt to make this price worth it (It wasn't). And considering a (starter) salad with chicken is 18$, you think they'd spring for ramekins instead of plastic cups. Definitely do not recommend. If you want pub food there's a dozen different, and cheaper, options around. The only thing saving this from a one star rating was the service. Waitress was super friendly and accommodating for allergies, and double checked with kitchen.

Mike Brownhill

Corks was an excellent choice after a very enjoyable performance at the Shaw Festival. The drinks and appetizers were interesting and delicious. I had the Mediterranean salad with grilled chicken and enjoyed every bite. Our server had a terrific personality and was helpful and efficient. Our friend was driving and when we walked back to the car someone had found his cellphone and placed it under the windshield wiper.

Dan Kacen

Cute place in Niagara on the Lake. Good food and service.

Rhonda Bowman

Voted #1 best fish and chips?? Voted by who?? Truthfully it was one of the worst fish and chips I've had. The fish was clearly frozen and tasted very mushy. At $15.99 its insanely overpriced considering the subpar quality. Also I must mention the rude waiter. Very eager to get us to eat our food and leave so other people can come sit. This guy was only interested in earning as much tips as possible. After we ate we decided to order a beer and the waiter says to us "oh so you guys are now just gonna hang around and have a beer?" Yes, after a meal you want to have a moment where you can relax and enjoy a drink, is that so wrong?? We felt very good about giving him a $3 tip, and to be honest I think that was being a bit too generous. I will never ever go again to Corks, its on my black list.

Mariam Lami

Definitely a Covid 19 restaurant. Social distancing is not a requirement by table set up. If your lucky to get the window tables to watch out on the street then you may share the 1 to maybe 1 1/2 foot distance between tables. Yes they do ask to sanitize your hands when you enter but then their sanitization ends. Plastic menus went table to table never being cleaned and then the debit machine was the same. For your safety they no longer offer tap water but at a cost you may purchase bottled. Yet a glass with ice you may get to keep your water cold. I do not understand how that is for our safety with their concern in mind or just a cash grab. Sadly they fail to see how we all could go back to stage one very quickly with their actions and respect to the guidances set. We all want life to be what it was but this restaurant shows no attempt to help us get there.

John Lewis

Delicious food: had lamb burger & fish and chips with beer ...generous portions. Friendly, professional staff. Would go again if it wasn't a few cities away !

Don Thomson

I love this restaurant. It's 1# "Fish and Chips". Everything is fresh. I like the soft and crunchy bread that just baked/toasted, delicious muscles and soup, fish fillet. It deserves to be the number one "Fish and Chips". The price is very reasonable. The covered patio is very nice.

Uli Najaf

Location and view is what got the 2 stars. Me and my family (husband and 2 very young kids) came here during the long weekend in May. We sat at the front "patio like" space they had which was pleasant. However, I found that our server needs more training. 1. Our beverage was water for the table, it made no sense that she gave us 2 glasses versus 4 when there was 4 of us; 2. We had to ask for another 2 glasses of water midway through lunch because we were hoping she would figure it out; 3. I had requested to have another tin of crayons so that it was a peaceful lunch without the kids fighting over the 1 tin of crayons, the server’s response: she physically took out crayons in the existing tin we had and gave them to one of the kids while looking at me as if I hadn’t thought of that solution; 4. Same case for cutlery, we were only given 2 sets rather than 4 as if my children (5 and 2 didn’t exist); and 5. No attention to refill the water. We had ordered the baked Brie, the burger and the goat cheese chicken penne. The brie was probably the best of the 3. The burger was dry and nothing special. The pasta was bland.

Katrin Sara Sadigh

Only had a drink there hence only 4 stars. Staff lovely, service great,very good range of drinks. Would love to return to try the food

Great food, enjoyed the lamb burger. Very friendly server. Happy they offer a really nice patio for dining.

My friend and I had a delicious dinner here. We ordered the lamb pasta and the lamb shank and shared. The lamb pasta was a simple dish but it tasted very "homey" and there was lots of meat which is unusual in restaurants. I personally preferred the pasta over the shank which was still yummy. The meat falls off the bones as it should and my friend preferred this dish. I wasn't impressed by the house red, it just tasted like a generic red wine but it wasn't bad, just not my thing. The service was very friendly and the atmosphere was nice (could go there for a nice date or to watch a game and hang out with friends).

lynette Breto

Wonderful service! My favorite Fish and Chips dish that I have been able to enjoy anywhere in the states no doubt.

Mark Levangie

Very good Fish & Chip

Stephen Bennett

A good atmosphere and great service, unfortunately the food left a lot to be desired for myself and the others in my party. The fish and chips were fine but nothing extraordinary for the price point which unfortunately is quite high even for the area, especially when it comes to drinks. Th waiter we had was incredibly friendly and understanding and when two of our part did not enjoy their meal, they were offered refunds which I found to be very generous.

Orla O Connell

Crab cakes were great

J J

Cork's Restaurant had great service and wide selection of beer and wine to drink. Nice atmosphere near the sidewalk.

Erika O

Nice modern but cozy vibe, the Brie and white flight were delicious

Joao Coimbra

Fun place, nice staff, and the portion sizes were bigger than expected...so overall, more value than expected. One thing...they told me ahead of time that the 15% gratuity is already included in the price and we forgot about it when paying, so ended up paying a second 15%. Just heads up. :)

Dad Bod

My lunch was raw, I didn’t eat it and complained and still had to pay for it. My daughter’s lunch was missing the “real” bacon that the wrapped boasted! Overpriced. Never again!

Roberto Andrade

They served my friend an uncooked Chicken Madeira... the waitress was super diligent with getting a new one prepared but then they didn’t take the dish off her bill or comp any of her drinks. We all thought that was a poor response to serving raw chicken and not having the pleasantry of dining with the rest of our table.

Tom Brady

The garlic bread and mussels we had for appetizers were good. The burger's not bad with the brioche bun, but I'm pretty sure the patty's just a Costco hamburger patty *(definitely not made fresh in house). Cute place. The service is pretty good.

Mike

Food and service was immaculate. Highly recommend.

Brian & Rowena McIntosh

Delicious food and great service

Lisa Dreher

Friendly staff and food was delicious. Had the special of the day, Pork Schnitzel and fries. The sauce was good and there was not too much breading ok the pork. Also the fries was not bad, nothing special about it. Portions are a bit big since they provide a lot of fries with the dish. Would definitely recommend for others to try.

Amir Miran

A good bar. Food is tasty, nothing extra-ordinary - but good and big portions. Generous pour on the wine. Friendly staff.

Meghan M

A very nice location and great staff. However - the closest vegan option they have is a dish of fettuccine with tomato sauce. In my case, this was essentially pasta that was a bit dry in one end, with what seemed like a box of cooked crushed tomatoes on top. A little bit underwhelming for the price tag is all.

Patricia KH

Great little spot in historic old NOTL. Food was really tasty and very big portions, I had the shaved beef dinner. Staff was very friendly and gave advice on things to do in the area. Would be 5 stars but was a tad pricey even considering the area. Would recommend.

Heather King

Great atmosphere, excellent food, and friendly staff. If you’re visiting Niagara on the lake I highly recommend it.

Kyra Moate

We enjoyed our lunch today, 2 pulled pork sandwiches with very good fries, onion soup and crab cakes to start. All we're delicious. I wasn't big on the apple dessert, found it kind of bland, but my companions did. We'd return.

Walter Hughes

Excellent service, good food and great value.

Mark Sever

We have visited a few places in the region and this place was fantastic. You have to try the crab cakes! We also ordered a grill chicken with our salads and it was above our expectations: smokey, juicy, and flavourful. Our Italian waitress was wonderful. She was fast and helpful with all our questions. Will return again when in the area.

Grace Soong

Best seat in Niagara on the lake if you can sit on the patio and people watch. Good food, good wine, friendly staff. We enjoyed our dining experience very much. Fabulous crab cakes!

Spencer Burniston

While the food was nothing out of the ordinary (the mussels came out a tad lukewarm), Corks Winebar & Eatery does benefit from supreme location and a quasi-outdoor area which allows for fantastic people watching and the experience of outdoor dining. The staff are friendly and attentive, and worked hard to get us out in time for our flight. A nice place to relax with friends on a loungey Sunday.

Patricia Lambert

Food was not good at all. Everything was under seasoned. I had the veal shank the rosemary used as garnish should have been used in the braise to impart some kind of flavor. Red wine jus tasted more of that of store bought powder gravy mix and the red wine was not even aparent at all. Mashed potatoes were cold and stiff no flavor as well some warm butter and cream would have been nice and this thing magical thing called salt and pepper would have been nice. Brown green beans are never nice even more so when they have the flavor of a shoe. Next time try blanching them properly with salty water and a ice bath to preserve the color. Just care about what you put out.

julie buckham

The best restaurant we went to in Niagara on the lake. The service was great and quick. The food was amazing.

Ragini Lipka

Has very nice patio which can be very desirable on a nice sunny day presuming it's not too hot and staff is friendly quick and attentive. It has a Pub menu with some pasta dishes, burgers and sandwiches. There's a nice selection of beers on tap and wine. The food is fine not great just fine.

April Kalloo

My wife & I had a great lunch here. Food was great. Server Bekah, was very good at her job.

Greg Parousia

Service was a bit slow. Food was good. Bit pricey but that is due to location I believe.

Coral Courtney

Wait staff was great. Service was great. Calamari was tasteless. They happily replaced it. I choose the baked brie. It was excellent. I appreciate the excellence in customer service

John Robinson

Great place to eat and a very enthusiastic server! He even told us some of the ghost stories associated with the location!

nelo

Boyfriend and I loved corks when we came in March 2020 and sat on their heated patio. We came back July of this year for my birthday and I was SO disappointed. The service was mediocre. The gyro was described as having sliced lamb on the menu, when I received it it was ground lamb. Absolutely disgusting, couldn’t finish it. The waitress asked why I didn’t finish, I explained that it was advertised differently on the menu and I didn’t enjoy it, her response was oh sorry. Would have been nice if I was offered something in its place. Left hungry. Unfortunately won’t go back.

金玫Barrie 华人地产经纪 Mei Jin

Tried this during a slow lunch day and loved the service but the fish and chips were a letdown. Upon entering the hostess was incredibly friendly and really made us comfortable. We sat in the front patio which was warm and cozy on a cold winter's day. We decided to order the crab cakes to start which were moist and filled with crab which was delicious and my favourite part of the meal. We then ordered the fish and chips which was recommended. Unfortunately this was a letdown as it was too oily and lacked any flavor. I expected more for the price I was paying and would advise to order something else. All in all I would comeback as the service was fantastic but would stay away from the fish and chips.

Sean Fung

Nice enough place with great staff but varied food. My veggie wrap and chips was great but his fish and chips not so much- fish was grey so didn't look or taste that good. He enjoyed beer much more!

James M

Absolutely wonderful experience. Good food, great atmosphere and the staff went above and beyond to make our evening special. Thank you!!!!????????????

Arameh

Good pub fare. Good selection of beers and wines. Good value. Great and attentive service. Nice atmosphere.

Alicja Szymańska

Rare that I get a miss but my fish and chips was okay, fries seemed from frozen and were dry, top of coleslaw was dry/soggy too and my partner's muscles were over cooked and tasted off. Sorry to say, not the best lunch. Service was good.

Ambra Curetti

Place is always crowded but we got there in time to have a leisurely lunch. Our waitress was attentive, our food arrived quickly & we didn't feel rushed.

Gil Strachan

A wonderful place to go

Leana K

The menu is great, the price is right, and the atmosphere and service was amazing. Definitely recommend this place to anyone when you're in the Niagara on the lake region.

The waitress was dippy. I asked for what the special was and she said roast beef potatoes and a vegetable so I ordered that with a side of salad she brought my food with roast beef and a salad on the same plate no potatoes I sent it back and said the special was roast beef with potatoes and a veggie it looks really gross with the salad and roast beef and gravy on one plate got the bill she charged me for everything separately she said they sell it would cost 299 extra but charge me 12 bucks for a salad plus the full price for the special and I didn't get any vegetables with my meal so needless to say I only give it a one if that but the food was good I guess you're not supposed to order a special there they charge you for everything except what what it said price wise

Fine dark Chocolate

Great place for a quick meal. Good food, reasonable prices, friendly staff.

DO NOT try and host an event here! Back in September I was planning my wedding to be in the Niagara region, I had emailed around looking for a place to hold my reception, and corks was willing to host it for me, while almost every other restaurant in the Niagara region was too busy or not taking large reservations at the time. While helpful at the beginning, now coming closer to my wedding in October, we were trying to narrow down details, while yes I fully understand the that covid is going on, a response from someone would have been great. I had been emailing with Maria, and all of a sudden the emails stopped. Trying to ask about decorations and no response. My mother had tried to call and ask about menu options, the phone was answered and while yes it was a busy weekend, we were told someone would call or email us right away, 5 days later and still not call or email. I sent out another email, reached out through their Instagram since they were active on their Instagram and posting,and left a voicemail again. With the uncertainty of this restaurants co operation, I had to make the unfortunate decision as to completely rebook my wedding just 7 months before, so thank you corks for not even having the decency to return a phone call or email to a very stressed out bride during the pandemic UPDATE: as soon as I sent this out, less than 10 minutes after I FINALLY received an email from them, pretty convenient and disappointing that’s what it took for them to respond

James Barbu

Excellent food. The mussels said appetizer but it was a massive serving.

T MacD

Pretty mediocre food and slow service. That's already a good thing since you can also get an indifferent and surly waitress on top of that if you are lucky. We were fortunate enough to only have the first two. So three stars is about right. It's generally a comfortable restaurant to have lunch in a very touristy area.

Gary and Melissa Walter

Great place. Loved the decor. A lovely place for lunch. Would go back.

Matheus e Mariana Rama Amorim

It’s nice that there are some vegetarian options. Unfortunately food lacks taste. It would be nice to use some spices to turn up the flavour a little bit. It looks nice inside and waitress was friendly.

John E Becker

Had dinner here during our anniversary weekend trip. It looked amazing from the outside. Inside though....meh. Supposedly there was live music, but we couldn't hear it over the gaggle of girls there for a bachlorette party. I know the venue can't really help that, but it ruined the whole night for us as we couldn't even hold a conversation without shouting at each other. The food was so so, nothing to really write home about. No free refills on the soda, so be careful with that. And expect to wait a bit for your food. Overall, we wouldn't eat there again for dinner.

Socrates Celestial

Good food & cheerful, efficient service at a decent price. Great selection of craft beers on tap. Super location on Niagara on the Lake's main street. The veranda/covered patio offers a great view of the street and passersby.

Tabitha Mann

Food was really good and the staff were very friendly and nice.Highly recommended

Nadya rt

Pork schnitzel was Great! The service was incredibly fast and great quality.

Josep Maria Nadal

Don't waste your money. Such a disappointment after reading so many positive reviews. The food is poor quality at best. $9.50 for a Sangria, I don't want frozen fruit and water down fruit juice, I sent it back. The chicken maderia was $24.95, you get old green beans and carrots, a pile of mash potatoes and a pounded out chicken breast that was tasteless and covered in mushroom gravy. Overpriced and a waste of money.

Bob Barrie

Quality food nice people

Nick De Silva

Fast service! I was actually shocked to see how quickly everyone in the restaurant got drinks and food. Very impressive!

ian hanney

Nice patio and setup and good service. Unfortunately, the food which is well priced for the area, was very bland. We had the mussels in an almost water broth, chicken Madeira which had no semblance of a Madeira. Steak Frites was fine though. They need to work on their flavourings.

Lori Bradford

I'm going to be blunt and simple. The food that you pay for here is overpriced for the quality and preparation, it's honestly not worth your time and appetite. I'm not hating towards the staff or cooks but the food is not worth the price and there is so many other places in the area where you can eat better. Drinks are good and service was fine but this is a place to drink and not eat.

Kolbjørn Austreng

Nice day out in early April, sat in the glassed-in covered area. Waitress cracked the windows for us and let in a beautiful breeze. The food was fantastic. The lamb burger and fries were spot on, added feta to the burger and everything for lunch was really well done - much recommended.

Isabel Lam

Great experience. I went there with some friends. I had the chicken curry, and it was awesome. Great food. Great experience and excellent place to go with friends.

Gursimran Ghai

The atmosphere is v nice as well as the interior but the cook is definitely scared of using ANY spices. No salt, no pepper, nothing - food was really bland. We (group of 4) ordered 4 different dishes and all of them lacked of any flavor. Veggie wrap, burgers, philly cheese steak... Tasted like nothing to be honest! Maybe the cook should watch Dune as the spice is a great deal there ;)

Ashling Moore

Came here on a ladies getaway and sat outside on the patio on a busy Sat for lunch. Got in right away and were served fairly quickly. I got spanikopita with a mediteranean salad and my friend got the fish fry. Both were very good! Good portions and friendly service. Prices are about average for this tourist city. Can find most items $20 ca and under for lunch.

mahsa asnafi

I had the onion soup and it was soooo good. My husband loved the pasta and meatballs. The beat part was my Cosmo... perfection.

Kim Montgomery

I strongly don't recommend it, very inattentive towards their customers and they showed me no respect at all. I came here on Friday evening, was waiting by the entrance to be seated for 15 minutes (despite the fact that many tables are available). One waiter asked me to wait and that he will be back shortly (I have never seen his face again after he went inside). I asked another waitress to be seated, she said that the other waiter will help me when he is back !! Like seriously, is this how you would treat your customers? I ended up leaving the place and going to another restaurant on the same street where I was treated with full respect.

Benjamin Youdontknow

Great Sangria - really fresh and fruity summery drink... Lamb Burger with Feta and tzatziki was terrific! Maybe pricey, but everything in Canada and Niagara on the lake is a little pricey compared to The States...

Linda Tyler

Great food with huge portions, excellent service, the staff is very helpful and friendly, lovely environment, will definitely visit again, highly recommended!

Patrick Au-Yeung

The staff is rude and not welcoming. The server looked more interested to serve large groups and completely forgot about single tables of 2. Not going back. Management need to look into how they treat paying customers.

Saviz Soltani

Had lunch, crab cakes were superb, grilled chicken sandwich was delicious.

Jessica Petrillo

We enjoyed an amazing dinner here. So. much. food. We hadn't eaten lunch but none of us could finish our meals, without any appetizers. Great service, friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Roman Zelvenschi

Very over priced for flavorless food and beer. Their house blond beer is basically carbonated yellow water. The waiter described it as having great flavor. Couldn't be further from the truth. Their fish and chips were heavily battered with no flavour. I couldn't taste any flavor from the fish at all. The French fries were the best part of this meal and they were just average fries. Service was slow even though the place was not very busy. They charge top dollar because of their location but everything was just terrible. I'll never even consider going back.

Mindfully Inspired Living

Its OK taste for having lunch

Michaela Schmidbauer

One of the worst brunches I've had, ever. The poached eggs were horrible, they were half cooked, the hollandaise sauce had a grainy texture. The service was awful. I will never eat here or recommend anyone else to eat here.

Patrick Morris

The interior of the restaurant is beautiful (it would better if it didn't have a tv), the food was exceptional, large portions and very tasty. The servers were slow, extremely friendly but not in any great hurry to tend to us once we were seated. We ordered; Pork schnitzel Bruschetta bread with goat cheese Rocket salad with chicken The salad was large enough to split! It was recommended to come because of their brownie dessert, however, we were too full to order it! Gives us a reason to go back.

Luz Cerda (DominicanosEnSaskatchewan)

I came here with a large group, about 24 people and it was great. Ice cold local beers, great service and really good food, I had the mixed veg tuna salad, was very fresh and tasty. Everybody enjoyed their meal.

Sara Vloet

My husband and I had a wonderful experience here. The service was exceptional all thanks to our server John who was very kind and polite with us. Food was on time and tasted amazing!! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Niagara on the Lake.

Susana Medeiros

Delicious food and great service

Rock Star Today

The first thing that you'll notice about Corks is their menu - there are more options for beer and wine than there are for food. That's not to say it's a bad thing, because when you're at a restaurant that specializes in pub style food, your options are always going to be limited, and in this case, even more so, as they place a heavy emphasis on seafood dishes. We chose a patio seat, since it was such a nice day outside, and ordered a refreshing pitcher of Sangria. I'm not a wine person myself, but the sangria here was fantastic. It was not overly fizzy, and came with lots of citrus and berries, which added another level of flavour. As we sat outside, we noticed that the restaurant had an interesting black and white colour asthetic going. The use of white really opened the space us, making it feel airy and spacious, while the black brought it back down and gave it a more traditional restaurant aesthetic. It was simple, but it worked really well. As someone who enjoys pasta, I ordered the Mediterranean Delight Pasta, and my girlfriend ordered the Veggie Wrap. The pasta was fantastic, as it came with black olive, lots of feta and olive oil drizzled on top of the pasta. The veggie wrap was your typical veggie wrap fare, however it had one crucial difference that made it absolutely delicious - hummus. It brought the whole thing together in a way that a simple veggie wrap otherwise couldn't. The food was great, but again, it was more or less your typical bar/pub style food. I'd recommend this place more for their wide selection of wines and beers more than their food, as that seems to be what they're really interested in.

Kourosh Yazdani Rashvanlouei

Such a friendly place, servers know their stuff and attentive. Good food, nice selections. Only critique, poor air circulation. Middle of summer and it was so humid in the interior dinning room. No a.c. or air flow.

Vera G

Wonderful food, and great service. Everything was done perfectly. We came on a very hot day after a long bike ride and were given a table inside when one became available where it was cooler. Service was quick and prices were right. Highly recommending this place.

Kari Layden

The PEI mussels were delicious! The broth was amazing after squeezing the lemons in there, and I made sure to soak it all up with the bread. The lamb poutine was good but a little too salty for me. The chicken caesar wrap was pretty good as well. The waitress was really nice and made sure my cup of water stayed full.

ZomGitsKG

Burger was well done and dry. Service was not attentive and slow. Had to ask another server for water after 20 min of waiting for our server to see us. Overall very upsetting experience

francesco Paolozza

The best place in the town with their calamari.

Bijan S

Came here because it was one of the few places opened late and not overly expensive. Food was alright. The vibe was good.

Ravine Pinter

Food was good. We found it to be expensive for the small portions. Would not return.

Adam Kesik

We were here on Monday and I wish I had taken more photos. This was our second time here and the food was just as good as the first if not better. Lots of options for everyone. Our waiter was Ryan and he was exceptional with not only how he assisted us but with how he was helping other guests as well. I ordered a coffee to go with my meal and Ryan took the time to make a fresh pot just to ensure it was fresh. Thanks for the great service and we'll be sure to stop in again when we're in the area.

Robyn Zaragoza

Karen Kumar

Meal type

Thomas Mittner

An average dining experience. Service was generally friendly if a bit slow, and the tables on the patio are too tightly packed together. The food was as expected - good serving sizes and well prepared. One member of our party had a small issue with the accuracy of his order, but nothing critical. If returning to the area, I would probably look elsewhere for lunch.

Andrew Inwood

Three of us are on the patio, very comfortable. Fish and chips were very good!

Mona Hachem

The Fish n'chips were great.. Service awesome.. Excellent covid screening and precautions

madasme

Came here today for dinner with a group of a six, but ordered two different beers on tap that both tasted very off. One was a cream ale and tasted like a sour beer and the other smelled and tasted skunky. This and the service led us to decide to eat elsewhere unfortunately, so can't speak on how the food is. As a side note, there were very few vegetarian options, especially mains.

Lacey Pickett

Had their fish and chips. The fish was excellent, fries could have been a little crispier but that may be more preference. The coleslaw was a bit soggy, and I didn't enjoy it much. Overall the meal was good, and the service was excellent. Loved that the patio was heated and we could sit out there, so we could get a view of the main strip. It was overall a great atmosphere and I would return.

Jen C.

Great Fish & Chips. A little on the pricey side, for the decor/ambiance, but it's Niagara on the Lake, so that makes up for it. Friendly staff and great outdoors deck. We were there on a very cold day, and it was warm enough to eat outside with the overhead heaters, if we dared. My wife had a pork dish (special) and I found it alright...nothing to write home about, but all in all, a great experience.

Karen C-N

In my opinion the region wine is not as wonderful as the locals claim. Quebec wine is much more tasty than Niagara's. Otherwise, everything is okay. Good for short stops on the lake :)

Joanne Stevens

I loved the food and service. Shout out to Bekah, she was so kind & my family and I loved her! Shout out to her ‼️

judi kochanka

Wait staff was a bit brusque, which I will put down to them being busy. Roast beef was overcooked and the vegetables were practically raw. When I complained they brought me carrots that had clearly been cooked in a microwave. Inedible as far as I was concerned. All restaurants in NOTL are pricey, but there are plenty that can compete better on quality. I will not be back, although, as they clearly do a thriving tourist business, perhaps that doesn't matter.

Anil Dhawan

The server was very sweet, nice and effecient. The food came out fast. The ambience was really nice. We were disappointed with the food tho. My chicken mediera meal was below average for taste and quality and same with my husband's pork souvlaki.

dominic giacci

Great service! Food came so fast. Delicious.

Denise Brent

This place refused to serve us because we had kids. Horrible experience. Response to the owner: we had no strollers kids were over 7 years old. You simply refused us service. This was even though you had the tables available with the proper social distancing. Other people approached afterwards that were shocked with our experience. You must be mixing us up with other couples that you refused service with kids

Tara Withers

Really cute place right in Niagara-on-the-Lake with a nice roofed patio. The fish & chips and white wine mussels were great! A bit pricey for the menu options though.

Nelson R

Great eatery and a popular place for a reason. After the show and a stroll along the main street in Niagara on the Lake (NOTL) we saw the menu outside and it looked good, reasonable prices and we thought we'd take a chance and go in. It wasn't filled up yet, a pleasant young lady asked us where we wanted to sit, we picked a nice window table and enjoyed the afternoon light coming in. The food was generous, the fish fresh and by the time we were half way through our meal the room had filled up. We were lucky we came when we did! And this was on a Friday afternoon in October so if you expect to get a table on the weekend get there early. And if you are lucky you will have Kaitlyn as your server, a smart, lovely person with a great personality.

Michael Cottam

Food is dependable and good. One of the best choices in the area for food, drink, service and ambience. There plenty of space between tables and nice views of the main street. Classic elegant style matches the surroundings.

cindy carinci

Fast, friendly service, good food and good drinks, reasonable prices. Nice little theater upstairs

Kerry Drews

Great staff. Good pretty good too. Weird restrooms though.

Alejandro Mesa

The atmosphere was nice as we got to sit outside on the patio. Food was just ok. Had the blackened cod with vegetables. The fish was well seasoned but the portion was way too big. The veggies were soggy, soaked in butter and way too salty.

Mish Castro

We stopped in on the weekend. It was quite busy but we got a seat quickly. Service was quick and friendly. Food was served quickly and the fish & chips were good. We’d go back and eat there again.

John Marincic

A great restaurant in Niagara on the Lake. Service is very good. Staff is friendly. I had fish and chips. The cod fish was excellent and crispy and wasn't overbattered. The meal came very quickly and we had lots of time to explore the cute downtown and leisurely walk to the wonderful main theatre of the Shaw Festival. Parking is horrendous and sometimes hard to find. Go early. Find a parking spot. Feed the parking meter for lots of time and walk where you want to go.

Dani Watson

Delicious food, great service, excellent prices!

Rosa Richley

Great enclosed patio at the front for people watching and great beer selections.

Ana Rivas

It was good but had better

Kosta Tsimiklis

Very nice service and food.

Poria Kanozi

I go here frequently with friends, service is quick and friendly. Price point is good.

Mariana P

Super nice patio, service was great even though they were busy. The veggie samosas were great and the garlic bread with cheese was delicious as well. The drink menu is extensive, if you're buying wine definitely splurge for the 9oz.

The Bud

Good pub food. Had pierogies. Excellent. Salad was fresh.

S L

RUDEST OWNER I'VE EVER SEEN!! If I could give 0 stars I would. We were here a few days ago and waiting in line to come in behind an elderly couple. The gentleman was struggling to get up the front stairs of the restaurant when a lady (who I assume was the owner) stormed out and yelled "Stop right there sir, you need to wait at the door like everybody else!" The gentleman was clearly shocked (as was I) and apologized. She proceeded to very rudely demand proof of vaccination from him and his wife. Not even one ounce of compassion for the man who clearly struggled with mobility issues and was just trying to make it up the stairs. I've never been more disgusted watching the interaction, and I can't believe I didn't speak up. I guess I was just in shock. My husband and I immediately got out of line and went elsewhere for lunch. I get that it was busy, and that protocols are complicated in the Covid age, but to not have a single shred of kindness or decency towards another human being was simply appalling. I will never dine here. I will tell everyone I know to never dine here. And I recommend to anyone reading this to never dine here. I've never written a single online review in my life, because quite frankly, my time is too valuable. But this horrendous display of customer service deserved to be called out. Disgusting.

Dave Hughes

Attended the opening performance of the Twilight Jazz festival NOTL featuring Cinnamon Jones. The Cork is a sponsor. Fabulous show. Expect we'll be attend more. Great venue.

Ahmad

Nice front covered patio with views of historic Niagara on the Lake's main street. Food quality is mediocre at best. Greasy, poorly cooked, not much positive to say. Coffee was weak and bitter. Service was good and the local dark beer was nice. Stop by was a beverage but eat somewhere else.

Susan Wain

A bit pricey yet satisfying. It was nice to find the menu doesn't include only burgers friedstuff. The fish was great the pork was okay.

Noura Fekry

Recommended: fish and chips. Beers. Not recommended: steak

Richie Branche

I would say this place is average. Not bad, but not memorable either. They had some food selection that looked and sounded great on paper, but when you at it I was average.

paul jankovich

Great service , fish and chips is great the other foods are average .

KIm Schairer

Unpretentious and tasty lunch. We like eating outside on a veranda and when visiting Niagara-on-the-Lake we usually do not look for a fancy restaurant but rather for a quick lunch to spend some time walking around the town. We have been returning here a few times a year for the last 7 years or so. The fish and chips have been consistently great.

Piotr Narkiewicz

Was looking for a place to eat with kids while visiting Niagara on the lake. We stumbled upon Corks and truly loved it. From the appetizer to the main courses this place did not disappoint. Staff are all super friendly and very approachable!!!

B. Ann

I ordered salmon there and that was one of the best salmon dish I ever had.

Donna Denike

Service was good, patio is heated, menu is nice, steak was cooked well, salmon was a bit dry

Asoly Salumi

Great place great food and an amazing history.

John Harris

Good wine. Good service. Good location.

Ursula Kucharski

Great front room for eating.

Colleen Morton

Unfortunately, poor quality food. They served the worst French fries I've ever had, a tiny piece of fish that was mostly breading and their prices indicate some expectation of good portions and food. The 2 stars was for their very nice staff.

Shahin Dayani

Staff was excellent and the food was fantastic. I highly recommend.

Ryan F

The food and staff are great. In a great location, love the covered patio. The theater upstairs has a bar and fun shows. Always love it when I come here!

Elma Forto

They weren't able to accommodate a group of our size at a single table which is totally fine, so we got broken up into several smaller groups at different tables. The service was awful, staff and the manager were rude. They kept blaming their mistakes on 'not being able to accommodate a group of our size', even though we might as well have all been independent customers since we were seated at different tables. Unremarkable, try somewhere else that values your business.

Natalie Batich

Good sized servings; delicious fish and chips; pretty standard ceasar salad; fresh PEI mussels were good. Nice selection of tap beer & wine. Server was very attentive and friendly.

Laurie g

Nice place to have lunch with good food at Niagara on the lake. Covered patio seating is gorgeous on a fall day

Russ Cadwell

We're out of town folks (Edmonton, Canada), who wanted to spend the day in town. Had lunch at Corks and though the service was efficient and friendly and most of our food that was ordered was good too. the French Onion Soup was diabolical. It was served just only warm, barely any cheese and a few pieces of torn bread. $8 for 4 ounces of dishwater.

Vincent Nachaty

Niagara on the lake is a very busy place. The other places we wanted to go to was an hour wait. This place was a shorter wait. We opted to sit at the bar to eat as it was the quickest way to get food. The menu is good with a lot of choices. The food came super fast which was the best thing about this place. The food is good. The price is average for a tourist place. I felt the service could of been better. The girl at the front was friendly but the wait staff were all not the happiest people. I think all of Niagara is like that. Not happy to be serving,tourist all day long. I asked for another wait staff for water as I was not able to find mine. She said you have to ask your server. I guess she felt she didnt want wait on me as my tip would not go to her. They do have a patio at this place which looks like an awesome place to sit and eat.

Maxine Furlong

It's a good restaurant with decent prices. not complaints

Jay G

The sriracha meat balls is one of the best meatballs I've ever tasted. The fish and chips is on point! 5/5

Ken koyama

Clean, great service, good food and right in heart of historic Niagara on the lake.

Nunzio Tindaro Cannistraci

No atmosphere. Food took a while but was ok. Too too many flies in the restaurant. We had to cover our food and drink. It was very pricey and we couldn't finish due to the flies everywhere. Awful.

Franco Zaffino

Went for lunch on a weekday, food was average, but before we were done the waiter rushed us out without asking if we wanted a second drink or dessert. It was not very crowded and we had been planning to stay longer. If there had been a wait I would have understood, but if people want to take their time over a meal and there are tables left, I don't see why we needed to be hurried out the door

Rick Taylor

The food is really good. The front covered patio is a great space. Nice bar. Overall great vibe in there. Always a must when visiting Niagara ln the Lake.

Olivia Taney

Nice place, good food and not as pricey as some restuarants in the area

Susan Ash

Dine in

Jason Swann

Was pleasantly surprised to find it open at 11pm Sunday night! Lovely seat overlooking the town, great service and the food and drink were delicious! We will return next time I'm in town!

Vaness C.

Excellent food and staff were amazing! thank you for making my NOTL experience an memorable one!

Jess Lynn

Edward is amazing! This area gets a lot of tourists so it's always busy so it's refreshing to see a server with such a great aura and providing a great experience. The food was absolutely fantastic with very generous portions. All together it's our favorite spot on the strip.

Gardener Quest

Outstanding food, drinks and service in a cute town, I strongly recommend this place if you happen to be visiting the Niagara Falls

PeterSkier (Peter the skier)

Good service. Good food. Great indoor patio

James Pang

Rainy day NOTL Christmas Parade day so we planted ourselves on their enclosed, heated deck. Enjoyed their homeade soup and peameal/bacon sandwich. Some 'beverages....amazing caesar and some beer samplers allowed us to enjoy the parade( 25yrs now) from the comforts of this lovely establishment. Would have got a 5star rating had the fries been fresh cut ;)...otherwise a great place for some great comfort food!

Sam Pross

Very nice food. We went to have a dinner and the meal was served fast

Rahul Obhrai

It was ok. Good for tourists but avaerage all around. For a place called corks they did not have many wines. Many better choices in the area.

Eugen Dura

Stopped for lunch with my mom. Lovely restaurant, great service.

Tatiana Claros

Service was great. Food was not. We left hungry because we could not eat the food. Very expensive and we weren't actually sure if our food was completely cooked.

Samuel Edmondson

Went here to try the “best fish and chips in Niagara” so they stare inside. Well It was fantastic, place is decorated with corks and is a nice pub where you can take the family out for lunch. It was clean and the wait staff was nice. We all ordered the fish and chips and it came hot and quick. Fish was a decent size and had a great crunch to it. The fish inside was white soft and fresh. The price was ok had some fresh cut fries too. Here is my meal and my daughters which was great too. Decent portions!

Richard Carter

Tried different foods and all of them perfect, highly recommended !

Frank Pyts

I can visit everyday for Lamb Burger!! Good food!!

Diane Vandenhaak

Both my wife and her friend get violently ill after eating there and meeting an hour before hand. This is not a cooincidence. We come from a family of medical professionals ..

trinakeane tbird

Nice little place with excellent food. Well worth any wait for a table.

Eleni Vamvatsikou

Great service and tasty food. Have never been disappointed. I would highly recommend for either breakfast or lunch. I had the steak frites. Also, due to COVID-19, if you are looking for a patio, I would recommend this one above all others along main street (even during a post pandemicworld). The patio even has a solid covering in case the rain catches you during your meal.

Tracy Matthew

So...went for a Mother's Day trip to Niagara on the lake, it was a wonderful experience....besides this place. This place was SO bad, that its now the running joke of my current relationship, every time we eat somewhere that is disappointing, we look at each other and say "wasn't as bad as Cork's". We decided to eat outside as it was a nice day, and were treated to a bug infestation, and these bugs were LITERALLY falling from the windows. They continued to try to seat people there, and the customers kept asking to be moved. After a third or fourth fail at attempting to sit couples in the area, they decided to quarantine off the area, and proceeded to spray that area with bleach until they were dead. As I'm sure you can understand, its not a pleasant smell while you're trying to enjoy your sad excuse for low quality, over priced, bar food. Go enjoy Cork's, if you want an expensive laugh.

William Doubles

Good food and good service.

Heather Caruso

Service was below average, food was barely edible. Frozen fries and meatballs. Limited menu. $17 for a poutine. Would not recommend.

Shawnie S

This is my favorite place for lunch when we visit. Love the menu and the front patio. Servers are always super pleasant and attentive.

Joseph Davis

We have passed this place many times while in NOTL but had yet to venture in. We did tonight, sitting on the patio. There are overhead heaters so it wasn't cold but I was not warm enough to take my coat off. A great selection of beers in tap from local craft breweries as well as a very large selection of wines. We were looking for some pub food so we tried the fish and chips and were quite content. The French onion soup was delicious. I found the rest of the menu to be a little pricey, but it is a huge tourist area. Service was quick and friendly, considering it was very busy in the patio. All in all, a nice little spot to stop for a drink and a bite.

D B

To summarize in one word "bland". Ordered the chicken madeira and I swear the carrots and green beans were plastic. Mashed potatoes was just that and the chicken, blah. Totally overpriced.

Shannon Hemingway

Food was ok. Nothing to rave about. All pub grub, was looking for something a little more exciting on my plate. Service was excellent.

Quakabee

We had a nice little lunch of cesear salad and bruschetta at corks. Good service, food was just fine

Matt Sohi

Food was very nice. I had creamy prosciutto pasta and my partner had the fish and chips. However the staff were a bit rude and our waitress was very forgetful. She completely forgot to bring us salt, vinegar and parmesan for my pasta. There was no apology. We were also waiting quite a while for our bill. We had to purchase bottled water because that's all they're doing at the moment which doesn't make sense to me. Everywhere else in the town provided tap water.

Nick

Greasy and overpriced food. Major fruit fly problem and inattentive service.

Jayson Osmars

Amazing experience. The staff went above and beyond to make pur event special. The waitress even went across the street to buy candles for our celebration. Thanks. We will absolutely visit again!!!!

Emma Keegan

Good food, good beer, good staff. ????

S Smith

Excellent food- but drinks are top-class! Fish and chips really yummy!! I tried Caeser and it was the best ever!! Will be back soon!!!

Edson N. Vieira Jr. (NoThanks)

Good for a quick bite. Pub food can't really go wrong. Good service and nice heated for winter patio although we weren't allowed to stay there with kids strollers.

Anita Win

Sangria was great, and the Salmon Wrap special today was very tasty.

Lucy Kensington

Service

Toralp Takunyacı

Fish and chips were OK at best

Antiques on Creek, Virgil, On. Straker

We relaxed out front on the patio, enjoyed drinks and a salad...great service too!

Richard Davey

very delicious

Food was not good. Quinoa salad with pure oil on top

Party of 6, 4 appetizers and drinks. Ok, 12 drinks, bill was $170.00. Server was excellent.

Jon Lawrence

Great service, friendly, quick, no issues. Food was really tasty and fresh. Simple fish and chips with good portion size. Beer was cold.

Amazing customer service at this cool bar and patio in the busy part of Niagara On The Lake. The patio was full but the setup was well done and really makes for an awesome atmosphere. Ordered the Crab Cakes, Fish & Chips & Quinoa Salad with Chicken at the table and they were all done very well. The Bar Tender was very attentive and so were the servers. Very comfortable experience and will definitely return when I'm back in town.

Unfortunately this restaurant has the distinction of being the worst place I think I’ve ever eaten. The good feedback: martini was good and they have fresh air inside. The rest: The food was horrid, tasteless and none of us could eat what was placed in front of us. Don’t trust the kitchen if you are celiac. Order something with a gluten free symbol, and get bread with your order. Then have tour server apologize and bring you fresh bread. ????

This is my second time here. And the service is just as nice. Great food at regular restaurant price

Stopped In for a casual lunch. Fish and chips were excellent. Good atmosphere and had great service. Would definitely eat here again.

Erin Kennedy

Decent food. Great service. We had a large group so they set us up in the back. Had the whole section to ourselves so that our kids could run around.
