There is an overall culture of unfriendliness at this restaurant. From the minute we walked up to the host stand to the minute we left, every member of the staff we interacted with seemed unhappy or unsociable. The server at the host table looked right at us then walked away, the host never even said hello but just stared at us waiting for us to initiate. Even our own server seemed ice cold and annoyed. The pizzas are big and we loved that they could be done half as one style half as another. We had half cheese and half sweet chicken fig which was terrific. The unsweetened ice tea had a strange flavor and the Diet Coke didn't taste like a Diet Coke. The location is great and the outdoor seating is a big selling point. The lack of friendly service is the primary reason for the low rating. We will try another restaurant next time we are in town! read more

The pizza here was amazing, my only regret was ordering one. Should have ordered way more, they're not small, they're just good!

If you, like me were trying to imagine if lobster pizza was a good idea or not, after venturing to try it here on the southern Maine coast, IMO it is a perfect food! A more expensive version of pizza but really a great value when viewed in terms of fresh lobster prices. More importantly, it tastes great! White sangria screaming with fresh citrus added made the trifecta. Maybe the beautiful day and fab company colors my world, but I'm happy! read more

Excellent pizza! We had the pizza with bacon and apples, oh my yummy! Or as the New England folks say, "Wicked good!" Service was wonderful, great atmosphere! We will definitely return! read more

Nice time! It was pouring out and windy and was put by the heater. Tried a porter, pretty terrible. The server got a little confused with our order. We ordered three pizzas but one of them somehow got combined? So we got two pizzas, the shrimp/sausage and then also spinach salad pizza. The shrimp half was good and the sausage and mushroom was excellent. read more

Popped in here on a cold rainy night and it was exactly what we needed! We shared a bottle of wine and a pizza and it was perfect! Our server was also so lovely and friendly who made great recs. read more

I have absolutely no idea how this spot is so highly regarded. The first time we came in, the server was quite rude. Among other things, she didn't visit our table for a 10 minute period right before we ordered, so suddenly it was 4:04PM. When she arrived, she told us we couldn't order a sandwich anymore because they stopped making them at 4. When we got our replacement items, they tasted microwaved and wasn't generally the quality of ingredients I'd expect for the price. I gave it another chance a week later and came in to order take out while they were still open, but they couldn't accommodate a takeout pizza. I tried again for takeout over the phone a week after that, on a Wednesday. They didn't pick up, and then did and said quite smugly that they couldn't handle a takeout order over the phone, or in person. I'd recommend you get food at the Levitt Theater, or the Treehouse Taqueria across the way. I've rarely encountered such uniformly poor service in a place that didn't have a management issue or a strange internal culture. Highly recommend avoiding the place. read more

Went here for an appetizer and beer and we were not impressed. Pretzel appetizer comes with one pretzel and the dipping sauces were undersirable. Waitress forgot part of our drink order as well. read more

I just want to give a message from an experience last night . This place was highly recommended so my wife and I decided to have a pizza the salad I entered the property and was instructed to go to the bar to give the pizza order, waiting about 10 or 15 minutes being bounced around by a couple servers and the kid who was making the pizzas. I was waiting at the bar for 15 minutes I was instructed to go to the other end of the bar so I can give the pizza order ". I waited another few minutes. The bartender finally came and I had asked him if it was gonna be a problem, could I give him a pizza and a salad order and he rudely told me yes it's gonna be a problem and left and walked away. I left the premises and went elsewhere and leaving the premises. I had conversations with a couple other customers experience that was horrible with that particular bartender. You should be aware of that, we could've enjoyed your pizza and salad had it of not been for this rude customer service. read more

We were here on vacation and looking for a place for pizza. I was in the mood for something a little more upscale than your typical pizza. This place did not disappoint! The pulled chicken and fig pizza was out of this world and the Caesar salad was great too. The bar tender was so nice and gave utensils and all that so we didn't have to search for some when we left. Highly recommend. Some of the best pizza I've ever had. read more

Awesome! We built our own pizza which was fabulous. Tried two local beers suggested by the barkeep and they were awesome. Sorry, only got a pic of one of them. A for sure must stop. read more

If you're in Ogunquit, you're probably thinking "why would I want to eat pizza?!" Well, give up lobster for just ONE meal, and head to Cornerstone Artisanal Pizza. I had the same thought for years, always bypassing the restaurant on the corner of Shore Road and Rt1 - then a few years back, my husband and I came to visit during a snowstorm and found that the majority of the other restaurants were closed. What was open: Cornerstone. The decor is perfect for Maine - with some taxidermy animal heads and antlers adorning the walls. We opted for a "build your own" charcuterie board and pizza. BEST charcuterie we've ever had! At $5 per item, you can order it to your specific taste and make it as small or large as you'd like. The olive oil drizzled on top was extremely flavorful and perfect for dipping the focaccia in. The cheeses and meats were wonderful too - but I'm still thinking about that olive oil..... On our most recent trip, we got our charcuterie "to go"! They have easy ordering at the bar, and after starting to chat with another couple, we ended up staying for a drink and watching some of the winter Olympics on TV while our food was being prepared. They have a lot of local New England beer. (My Perrier cost as much as my husbands beer... but despite that, the atmosphere was great). The bartender was so friendly, and it just felt homey. If we weren't taking our food to go, I could have stayed there for hours. Since that first visit, we make sure to stop at Cornerstone on each trip to Ogunquit and always order the same thing - no disappointments so far! Cornerstone couldn't possibly be in a better location, right across from a trolley stop in the center of town, and walking distance from the Beach, Marginal Way and most of the hotels/motels. read more

We've been enjoying cornerstone for years, however, had a terrible experience today. We made reservations to sit outdoors and received multiple texts confirming. However, when we arrived we were told they were not doing outdoor seating because "it's been raining off and on all day" by an hostess who acted as if we were stupid for not knowing this. At this point there was no rain. Of course this is understandable, but then why confirm the reservation? Will give them a break as we are in a pandemic, but please offer better communication to loyal customers. We went elsewhere and were promptly sat outside so... be aware your customers will go elsewhere for your failure to communicate. read more

This spot is perfectly located and has verrrry good food! However, in the height of summer season, service was slooooow and food orders arrived at all different times. We had a party of 10, and 3 people were served their meals well after the rest were finished with theirs. Our server was amazing but kitchen timing was not good. A bit of a disappointment. We went on an off hour because we had such a large party and still had slow service despite the uncrowded restaurant. Will def give them another shot because the staff was so friendly and the food was good but I hope they improve timing for orders. read more

I wish I could give this -100. After over an hour of waiting for delivery that we ordered online, we called. We were told to call a certain number to check on the driver's status. Something made me ask "has the order been picked up?". I was told it had been not. Let me get this straight. My order has not been picked up, but I NEED TO CHECK ON A STATUS?! My fiancé picked up the food instead and brought it back. It was beyond cold, of course. I called. The manager said she was giving a refund and HUNG UP ON ME WITHOUT ANY INFORMATION!!!!! I called back and she said she got it. Let me get this straight...you can somehow, miraculously process a $50 refund without my name but I can't even get my food?!!!!! Stay away from this place!!!! At all costs!!!! read more

The first time my husband and I came here in 2017, it was great. The last two times we've been here recently, it was horrible. Food was burnt, drinks forgotten and the waiter barely was to be found. We ate here again last night and the waiter we had this time barely got any of our orders right and wasn't really anywhere to be found again. And this is the grilled cheese that my son got. How do you mess up grilled cheese? Not impressed and won't be back again. read more

Great service, food, and drinks! After finding many restaurants closed, we stumbled upon Cornerstone and thank goodness we did! We had a split pizza (half cheese, half pulled chicken fig). Both flavors were great! The bartender was busy being our waiter and making drinks for the whole bar, but he still went out of his way to make our night great! Thank you! Cannot wait to return! read more

We had reservations today at 4pm. We ended up getting there at 3pm and they were more then accommodating. The service was wonderful. Our waiter Marcelino was outstanding. He was friendly and extremely welcoming. Our food came out in time and was delicious. We were in Maine for a week and got tired of seafood. We couldn't have picked a better place to change it up a bit. read more

Neat place- we sat at the bar and really enjoyed the selection of craft beer on tap. We shared an apple, cheddar, bacon, spicy cherry pepper pizza- probably the most unique pizza I've ever had- yummy. It was a bit warm inside due to the pizza oven but cool to watch them make the pizzas. We'd come back for sure and try to enjoy the outdoor seating. read more

Had to wait a little bit to grab a set on barside and with one girl running the bar and all the tables bar side figured service would be a little slow but it wasn't. The girl behind the bar killed it with running everyone's food while making and delivering drinks. The beer was delicious too I had both cider options off the menu and was not disappointed read more

Good pizza and great selection of beer. They let me sample beers before committing to a full glass

The wait and line are well deserved. Pizza was excellent with a crispy but doughy inside crust. Topped with homemade sausage and local mushrooms. Sweet salad was just as it is named, sweet and tangy. The wait staff made us feel like they really were glad that we came in for dinner. Bravo! read more

Food and service was great. Sat at the bar. We were able to sample beers before buying which was a huge plus

Good beer and local ciders. Meh food. Pretty sweet location tucked between the beach and the main little strip. Loved the patio, just wasn't wow'ed by the food. I had a fruit salad for $9 and it included two sets of fruit- a fruit salad with watermelon, honeydew, and cantaloupe, and this mixture had to have been 3-4 days old. The juice was sour and had gone bad. Then, on top, there was a freshly sliced banana, 1/2 a mango, and a thick slice of watermelon. THIS fruit was fresh, and I am confused why they even included the older fruit on the plate. For sure wasn't worth the $9 but we had to order food in order to sit on the patio. I'll probably opt to check out another location in this area before coming back. read more

Cornerstone Artisanal Pizza & Craft Beer - Great cider! - Pizza Near Me - Ogunquit, Maine

The best place in town. We're a family of four and we stayed in town for three days. We ate dinner there twice on the first night and third night. We made the mistake of eating somewhere else and it wasn't great at all, so of course we came back to the Corner Stone. My little ones had Mac and Cheese which they loved and a grilled cheese sandwich but our youngest wasn't thrilled for it. My husband had the Lobster Pizza. It was phenomenal! A lot of lobster and it was so damn good we couldn't finish it all but i forced myself to eat the last several pieces. I wish they had a restaurant location in NYC i would eat there all the time. The price was reasonable and it was filling. Unlike the places i have been to in Manhattan where they are very cheap with lobster or they charge an arm and leg for the meal. They should really consider opening a location in NY. The ambience was great, it was also a kid friendly restaurant and the music was jamming with some reggae and mixture of other soulful vibe. I would definitely recommend this place reason 1. They open late, most of the restaurants are closed early. 2. It was a short drive from our hotel but even if it wasn't I would have still made my way there. 3. It is kid friendly. 4. You get a great amount of lobster for a reasonable price 5. It was damn good! All the food i saw on the table next to me looked great. I love lobster so i had to have it twice. That was the main reason for my trip to Maine. We got lucky with parking since we went out late 8:45pm close to 9 or 10pm I don't remember but we were told they don't tow cars after certain time and we were able to park right on the side of the restaurant. The other time we parked in a close hotel lot where we saw other cars parked even though they said parking for customers only. We figured everyone was asleep anyway. It was dark and we slowly drove in with no one around. The only con (very small) my husband didn't like the flour grain which i think might have been corn meal. It didn't bother me at all and I think they probably put it so the pizza doesn't stick to the pan. read more

I am from Orlando, FL and my aunt is from Canterbury, NH and we stopped in for a quick lunch right after they opened. We got the five cheese macaroni as our appetizer. It was creamy and cheesy and decadent! For the main course, I opted for the muffuletta sandwich and my aunt got the caprese sandwich. Both came with a package of cape cod kettle chips (we saved these for later) and a pickle. The ciabatta bread was soft, and not hard on the outside like most ciabattas. The muffuletta was tasty and the tapenade on it had a little bite. The caprese was also served warm and it was juicy and flavorful. Will come back again when I'm up in the Northeast! read more

Great place to go for pizza and people watching! My family ate here during the summer. Very busy place for dinner! I had my own artisanal pizza (sans meat). It was pretty delicious though I couldn't finish it all. They have a good variety of menu items. Make sure you make a reservation on busy nights/season. It gets packed! read more

Cornerstone Artisanal Pizza & Craft Beer - Loved that balsamic glaze! - Pizza Near Me - Ogunquit, Maine

We stopped at Cornerstone for a quick bite to eat after a long day of traveling. They have a decent craft beer draft list so its worth the trip. We had the Market sausage and mushroom pizza, which was really tasty. Why the 3 stars? Our waiter was super odd and not very attentive. They weren't busy when we were there and from what we could see he only had 2 other tables. Every interaction with him was abrupt and awkward. Not terrible, just really strange. The hostess that sat us also seemed aloof and maybe a bit lost. I'll go back, hope that we have a different staff though. read more

Ate here Friday night. We sat at the bar. We received absolutely terrible service. Had to chase down the bartender and waitresses for everything. Food was just ok in my opinion. read more

Stopped in for lunch as this was one of the few places open during the off season and really enjoyed the pizza. They had quite a few options and the flavors on the pizza were top notch, nothing too overpowering the took away from a good bite. They also have one of the better gluten free crusts I have tasted in a while, served said they were made in house which would make sense given the quality. My only real gripe was the service, took a long time after sitting to get water, and then pretty long wait times between visits, even just getting the check back to sign. They had a change in shifts during the meal so that might have contributed but if the service was better probably would have gone 5 stars. read more

Horrible restaurant!!! I think the only reason they are still in business is because of their location. The food was very plain and just didn't taste fresh. I actually ordered a salad and I found a big piece of paper towel in the bottom of my salad. The waiter apologized and told the manager. The manager did not come by our table or do anything at all. I looked at him on the way out and he just walked to the back. read more

We had three great types of pizza- mushroom, cherry pepper, and good old fashioned pepperoni. All three used quality ingredients and the crust was awesome. They also have a great beer list and good service. The hostess, without our asking was very friendly with our toddler son and picked a table that allowed us to bring the stroller for our baby right to the table, out of way, and accessible for a quick and easy exit. read more

We went to this restaurant based on a recommendation from a friend. The service needs a little work but the food makes up for it. We ordered a caesar salad, lobster pizza and another pizza with half cheese and half pepperoni. This was one of the best lobster pizzas I've had and they do not skimp on the lobster. My wife enjoyed her pizza as well. Both pizzas had great flavor and were cooked perfectly. Make sure to try a blueberry lemonade-it was very refreshing! read more

I have given this place a mental five stars every year, but unfortunately I'm going to knock it back to 4 stars for my official review. The location is awesome. There is ample(for off season anyway) 2 hour free parking lots, and a few $10/$15 lot as well. Lots of shops nearby so you can get your money's worth if you have to pay to park. The restaurant itself is pretty good , I love the fact that the pizza can be ordered in halves so you can try of the off the wall combos that they have available. Today we chose to start with an appetizer of Kim chi deviled eggs, and they were good, although I didn't taste much KimChi and they only gave you 3 little mini eggs, which, appetizer wise is fair, and they were presented nicely, just seemed a little underwhelming(even for the $5 tag). Maybe a bigger egg would have helped? I don't know I'm not a chef. The pizza we chose today was 1/2 Jersey Cherry Pepper and 1/2 Gyro pizza. Both were phenomenal. The jersey was spicy with amazing pepperoni and the gyro was just... really good as well. It didn't look like it should work, but with Cornerstone we knew it would taste fine. Reason for the lack of 5 stars this time? Usually it's a fantastic beer list, really seasonal pizza choices and awesome service. This time it was a so-so beer list, nothing seemed special on the menu and the service was average not spectacular. No one was rude to us. No one made us feel unwelcome, it just wasn't as good as it normally was overall. All that being said, we eat here every year and will continue to do so. The pizza is worth your time. read more
