Corner Cafe Bar and Grill

It had been several years since I last had Rustic Pig, and I'm happy to say the BBQ is still great!…read more My wife and I each had a three-meat plate. The brisket was tender and flavorful, the pulled pork was excellent, the ribs were great, and the smoked sausage was awesome. We also tried several sides: Bacon Mac & Cheese, mashed potatoes, coleslaw, and mashed sweet potatoes, and everything was excellent. The Texas toast was good, too. The pudding was a nice little treat to finish things off. Overall, an excellent stop for some great BBQ. Definitely glad we came back!

Passing through and decided to give Rustic Pig BBQ a whirl. It's not much to look at -- it's…read moreattached to a convenience store -- but the place was clean and the food was surprisingly good. Service was good but nothing to write home about. Hubby got a sliced beef sandwich with garlic mashed potatoes, and I had two pork sliders. The BBQ was great! The only miss was the garlic mashed potatoes. They were dry as sand. Definitely don't order those! We'd absolutely eat here again -- just skipping the mashed potatoes next time.

They do have a spicier dry rub on them but their two BBQ sauces we used on them - one a more mustardy type and the other more traditional - balanced out their flavor. Their baked beans are the absolute best. We thought the coleslaw could be a tad sweeter, but that's a personal preference. The price for two, even without the delivery tip was on the pricier side.

The ribs were good and so were the sauces on the side. I would definitely not choose the brisket again but would maybe try other items.

I will also say the hours are until 8 PM but several times they have turned away to go orders starting at 4 PM. I don't understand the difference between offering someone to dine in or to go. If it's a small order, I could just put the food in it to go box myself at the table..... if there's a reason they're not taking to go orders they need to state what it is. About the flavor difference I don't know the potatoes taste different. The burnt ends taste different. The brisket taste different. They have also made several menu changes and changes to how they advertise in the actual brick-and-mortar location. With all these changes over the last six years, it just does not feel or taste like the same restaurant. And I'm turned off by the refusal of to go orders. I would much rather drive down the street to the other barbecue location.

Everything here is made from scratch, and you can taste the difference in every bite. Chef/owner Chris is seriously a food wizard. The quality, creativity, and attention to detail are on another level. We've eaten a lot of burgers over the years, and the beef heart burger was hands down the best burger we've ever had. Don't let the name scare you--it's absolutely incredible. We've been here three times now, and every visit has been consistently amazing. The food has always been fresh, flavorful, and worth coming back for. They also have a great selection of local craft beers on tap, which is a nice bonus if you enjoy trying something local with your meal. It's awesome to have a place like this in our hometown. If you appreciate real, homemade food and people who genuinely care about what they're serving, do yourself a favor and give this place a try. They have a nice out door seating but today was just too hot for that. We'll definitely keep coming back.

I went to the bar tonight and let me tell you right now this place is awesome! Chelsea is our bartender and she did a hell of a job. Friendly service and prompt service! You can't ask for more. On a Thursday night you would expect less than stellar service but corner cafe bar and grill has an awesome bartender tonight. I recommend this place to anybody looking for a fun night! Great job Chelsea! read more

They finish, we step up to the counter to order. The lady working the counter just stared at us. We look at her expectantly, awaiting an intro of some sort or any acknowledgement of our existence, a greeting, or to be given any instruction about ordering. 20 seconds go by of us all just staring at each other like she has forgotten what the script is. We finally are forced to just throw out orders at her non-responsive face. We joke about having waited for an intro & she continues to stare. Very strange encounter, neither of us have ever experienced this anywhere in our lives. It was almost as if she could not deign to greet us. Then when the food came out, they forgot the needed tartar sauce then did an instant 180 and walked away before I could also ask for needed silverware. Don't expect any real service here, it's like waitress & waiters light. The food? Fine & why this is a 3-star review. Not worth the experience. Won't go back. Ordering at the counter before service is served also required a tip. Asking for a tip before proving this level of service is scammy.

I had the Eye Opener- biscuit and gravy with sausage patties and two eggs. The biscuit was tender and flaky, the gravy was beautifully savory with just the right consistency, the sausage was a little salty but soooo succulent and flavorful. It was perfectly browned without becoming rubbery. In addition, the "starter" cinnamon roll was melt in your mouth delicious, especially with the quality bottomless cup of coffee. The quantity of food was more than I could finish. Unfortunately, I had to have left overs the next day. Such a bummer...

When we arrived we had to wait for a table and added our names to the list. We watched and waited for close to 40 minutes for our table because the space is so small. I have heard they are moving soon so that's a good thing for them. When we finally got our table they promptly brought us coffee and gave us time to look at the menu. So the service wasn't bad. No we get to the issue. There were 3 of us for breakfast 2 of us ordered the Chicken Fried Steak and the other got the Model A Breakfast. When everything came out it looked good and my mom enjoyed her Model A Breakfast. The issue was the Chicken Fried Steak and not necessarily the steak part but the Gravy on top of everything. The gravy was super thick and I wondered why and I figured it out. They must use something like pancake mix for the flour part of the gravy because all I could smell was pancakes and there were none on our table. Both myself and my partner noticed the smell of pancakes. This gave us both a bad taste for the gravy and neither of us could finish our Chicken Fried Steaks. So in my opinion the wait time was not worth the breakfast we could not enjoy or finish.

I was a little apprehensive, which unfortunately, my apprehension was warranted. We arrived around 5:45pm on a Thursday night and were asked if we could wait for 20 minutes. We sat and waited...and waited...and 2 other couples came in and were offered bar or outside seating instead of waiting (seriously?!?! We weren't given those options). One took the outside seating, the other opted to wait as well. We watched at least 6+ parties leaving, but we continued to wait. After 35 minutes, we were finally seated....and there were several empty booths around us. It took almost 10 minutes before our server arrived, so we had our orders ready. Drinks came about 10 minutes after ordering. Dinner came out at 7:15 pm. We had no idea this experience would be this long. Food looked great, but after one bite into my Cajun chicken club, I was really disappointed. The chicken was stringy-dry (at least my jaw got a workout) and the buns were borderline burnt instead of toasted. All the other ingredients (bacon, lettuce, tomato, cheese) were fresh and thankfully, enabled me to eat most of the sandwich. We rarely saw our server and both me and my husband ran out of drinks (we even finished off both waters) before she showed up for a refill. We didn't leave there until almost 8pm. Server was very nice, but the pace was a tad too slow...to the point of being absent. Hubby enjoyed his Tavern burger.
