I forgot to take a picture of my meal before I got into it. My sister and I went together for lunch and decided to split the short rib sandwich and the balsamic onion burger. We were having a hard time deciding between the two so we got both and cut them in half. The burger was good, but we enjoyed the short rib sandwich the most. It was flavorful, fell apart as you were eating it, and was just a great choice. Our waiter was super friendly l. It wasn't overly busy for a Saturday so it was nice to have a quiet-ish lunch. If you haven't been to Cornerstone yet, it's worth stoping by if you're in the area. read more

This is one of those places that you drive by for 20 years and always say we should stop there one day...well that's exactly what we did today . Came on a beautiful spring Saturday around 4:00 and grabbed 2 seats at the bar. The 3 bartenders were all friendly. Got 2 beers, 2 mixed drinks. onion rings, fish and chips, baked scrod and 2 side salads-$122 fair value for what we got! This place was crazy busy so I would try to get here earlier than the dinner crowd-every seat in the house was taken by 4:30. read more

Went for lunch. Service was excellent at bar. Had the short rib sandwich--very good, needed a kick from red onion, pickled cabbage. Really liked it though. My friend had a wrap--said it was great. Place was meticulously clean. Good selection of on tap brews. Was given the option to sample--very nice. read more

My friend and I went hiking nearby and worked up an appetite. We were initially going to Wendy's but got lost along the way and eventually ended up at cornerstone pub. We were both in the mood for a sandwich, something casual and not too big. We agreed on the Italian sub, toasted, with mayonnaise (in addition to the vinegar and oil). While we waited for our order, we were invited to sit at the bar. The bartender was kind to offer us some water which we accepted. After about 10 minutes, the food was ready. For about $15, we got a sandwich that was about a foot long, cut in half, with some fries. I regret not asking for a dipping sauce for the fries. They were hot, crispy, and delicious on their own but ranch would've made them better. The sandwich was good. It had a good amount of meat, but it did come with a lot of banana peppers which might have been a bit overpowering. The toppings were fresh, and the cheese was perfectly melted. Between customer service and quality of food, I was very satisfied. They do have a big parking lot, and are very close to stepping falls for a good hike if you're up for it. read more

We were a large group 16 people from a car club out for a country ride and lunch. Service was great and food was excellent. Looking forward to a return visit ! read more

The Cornerstone Pub was the perfect spot for lunch during our troll hunting expedition in Rhode Island. It was lively but not obnoxiously so for our party of two children and four adults. The chicken quesadilla was delicious and filling, as was the falafel in pita. Fish and chips were also a hit. Corn chowder -- I could have eaten it all day, creamy but not thick. Our cordial waiter was great. read more

Very solid dining experience. We sat at the bar and although it was busy - service was not compromised. The noise level was definitely tolerable. Lots of large screen TVs with a variety of sports. Loved the food. Try the Buffalo Chicken Dip. Amazing. The pub food was excellent and the pasta options were delicious. And we topped it off with phenomenal desert drinks! All in all a great dining experience and worth the drive from near or far. read more

Wow. I finally stopped in tonight after a friend recommended Cornerstone Pub and I was pleasantly surprised. I've driven by many times over the years and always said we should try it, and now that we're close by, I'm glad we did. We arrived a little late on Valentine's Day as a party of three and still had a few seating options. We chose a high-top next to the bar, which was perfect for the lively atmosphere. Our server was excellent. I didn't catch his name, but the receipt says Rondo S. He was full of energy, had great suggestions, and made the whole experience even better. As someone who eats gluten free, I was excited to see so many options on the menu. We were so hungry I forgot to take photos, but my balsamic onion burger was absolutely delicious. I'm already looking forward to the leftovers. I also loved my "liquid dessert" espresso martini with Baileys. The guys I was with both finished their burgers, steak sandwich, and beers, and everything looked great. Thank you for a fabulous night. We'll definitely be back soon to try more. read more

Expansive beer menu, full bar, and great menu. The Caesar salad is really good, not too heavily dressed. This can be tough to get into on the weekend, but it's worth a wait. Audrey is the kindest server, they're lucky to have her. read more

Cornerstone Pub - Cheers to finding Heady at The Cornerstone Pub - New American Near Me - Exeter, Rhode Island

We have passed this place many times on getting to I95S headed to NYC. Often see many parked cars there. A neighbor recommended it as "the best burger in RI." As we were in the area for a volunteer event, we dropped in for lunch (this would not be a typical "let's go for a burger at Cornerstone Pub" as it is a 45-minute drive). Well, he could be right. Clearly one of the best burgers I have had in years. I had the classic cheeseburger "well done." Why it works is the potato bun that stays intact throughout your meal and that the ingredients (tomato, onion, etc.) are the right size. A very tasty burger. A choice of sides. Nice décor and great service. A HUGE selection of beers and cider on tap. Damages for 2 with beers was $60. read more

Burgers were fantastic. Great place for pub style atmosphere. The wait staff was attentive and they did the rotating staff where everyone kind of does everything. Prices are very reasonable. You can tell it's a local hang out location. Just as we were leaving the live music was starting. read more

Always awesome service here staff is. Excellent!! Food is always consistent pub food and specials are the best bet since the menu is not extensive but just enough variety of items. Very good beer selection and liquor and drink selections good. Only downfall is closes very early kitchen and bar and no keno available, atmosphere is always upbeat clean and neighborhood friendly establishment. read more

I was in this general area and did a yelp search and cornerstone pub had a high rating and the food photos looked good so we decided to visit As you walk in there is a very Large bar with plenty of seats and large TV's.

Although this restaurant is located in a remote area, it's always busy and has a lively vibe. We prefer to sit at the enormous wraparound bar, and we rarely have to wait for a seat. The food quality is consistently good. They now offer a plethora of gluten free options as well. Worth the stop if you're in the area. It's located a mile or two off of 95 which makes it pretty convenient for people passing through the area. read more

I guess we must've chosen an off time to check this place out. Even though the staff was kind and attentive, the food was eh. My husband ordered the Buff Chick Sand and I ordered the nachos. Nachos lacked flavor and other than the Buff sauce the chicken sand was dry. Ambiance was spot on for a Pub feel but I don't think we'll go out of our way to visit again. read more

Nice spot, great food. A little loud but it is a pub. Lots of tvs, good atmosphere, ahi tuna salad was a very good price read more

My family and I stopped here on the way back from visiting family in the mid-Atlantic. We wanted to find a quick sit-down restaurant, and this popped up on Yelp. It was excellent. The food, the service and the overall atmosphere. All great. Will certainly dine here again on our way to or back from visiting family! read more

Ordered a large cheese steak with extra cheese. Got a half filled grinder roll that was a medium at best. I like salt on my food but this tasted like a salt lick. Instead of extra cheese I got one slice of cheese draped over the top of dry and burnt shaved steak. Instead of $15 for this I could've spent half that for a cheese steak from Subway, and next time I will. I've seen enough. read more

I find the food here very uninteresting and bland. I do realize it's often busy so some people must like it that way. It's always good to know what to expect. read more

Great atmosphere. Food was very good. Waitstaff was very friendly and speedy. Love this place.

Great food. Great service. All around winner every time I go. Please note that they do not take reservations but the wait has never been hideous. Even a wait list for the bar which sounds odd but works out well. read more

Went for a quick bite after going to Jack o lantern spectacular at the RE Zoo. A pleasant surprise. Our waitress was very friendly, a great pub menu with some great cocktails and dinners. Had Buffalo chicken dip and the onion Jam burger. Really good food decent priced. Only downside is it is VERY loud. Will go again if in the area! read more

Good food and good service. We had lunch on a Sunday afternoon. It was busy but not overly crowded.

Fantastic food and great drinks. Everything was excellent and executed to perfection. Surprising gem in the middle of the woods. Lively atmosphere and bartenders and servers who seamlessly go about their work. Really enjoyed our evening. read more

First time coming to cornerstone and the place is awesome. Staff is so friendly and attentive not to mention a huge selection of drinks. Ended up getting nachos to split which were layered perfectly, and then the special Mac n cheese with pork. In summary, spent a few hours there watching the Uconn men beat Gonzaga and will be back next time I'm in the area. read more

We have been going to this restaurant for over 10 plus years and it has always been great, except for tonight. If it wasn't for our bartender, Zac we wouldn't go back. We ordered an appetizer and it took over 40 minutes to come out. My husband got his fish & chips which were delicious except my dinner didn't come out with his. I again had to wait for 30 or more for mine to come out. At this point I already ate half of my husband dish because I was starving. When it did come out it was missing the mashed potatoes! What has happened to the chef there? I was so disappointed and sad by this. Zac was so good about it which is why we will go back. Hopefully it will be as good as it always was next time. read more

Friendly service. Good pub fare. Had the Reuben and it was good. Fries were crisp and not oversalted. read more

Huge bar, friendly staff. Only about a mile or two off of interstate 95 The chicken quesadillas are excellent (get them with jalapeños), as are the burgers. Will be back! read more

My Husband and I were camping locally and after a fun filled weekend we decided to end the weekend by going out to dinner rather than grilling. Cornerstone Pub was just 10 min away. The reviews were also very promising so we opted to go here. It was a Sunday late afternoon. The pub was about three quarters full. We were asked if we preferred a table or to sit at the bar? We chose the bar and was sat immediately. The bartender provided us with both drink menus and food menus. The drink menu had lotsa options! Just what we were looking for! My husband and I ordered a couple of different IPA's prior to ordering appetizers and an entree. Of the three IPA's only one wasn't to our liking but the rest were yummy. For entrees we ordered the Buffalo Chicken Dip and Sweet Chili BBQ wings. The Buffalo Chicken Dip was literally the BEST we'd ever had! Highly recommend it! The Sweet Chili BBQ Wings were cooked to perfection. For an entree we split the Open Face Prime Rib sandwich with Au Jus Dip Sauce. Soooo good!!!!! Our servers were wicked sweet and friendly! They had even recommended a brewery to us that isn't far from where we'll be celebrating our 23rd Wedding Anniversary in weeks to come. We really felt at home here. After dinner they highly recommended their chocolate moose. Everything was so darn delicious we of course HAD to and that too was unbelievably yummy. Our experience here at Cornerstone Pub from start to finish was absolutely perfect and cannot wait to visit again soon! read more

Absolutely love this restaurant. Great food and drinks, friendly staff. Love the deck outside. Such a good vibe. Love the grass area beyond the deck for the kids to run around in to get some pent up energy out while waiting for food. Tip : get the Burgers read more

Service was good. Place was clean. Prices are reasonable. Bathroom were clean and had the floor step to open the door . The Italian grinder was huge. It was flavorful. Fries were crisp. The Buffalo chicken dip was good. Not a lot of chicken but good ratio to the chips. The chips were not salty which is great. read more

Hot summer day.. the pub was cool. Server came over right away. We ordered salads; they were delicious. Enjoy!

Always a great meal. Even better staff and ownership. Highly recommended! Try the chicken parm!

Took a couple of guys from work here for a quick lunch. The food was great the bartender was great. He suggested a couple of beers and being pumpkin season I had to par take. The whole pig pumpkin was really good. I got the pulled pork while my guys had the chicken park sandwich and the calamari. They both loved their food. We will definitely be going back. read more

Frequent flyer here, tried at least 70% of the menu and never had a bad meal. Basic pub food mostly but everything is done to a higher standard. Bar setup is awesome for watching a game. Great selection of drinks and wonderful friendly staff. See you soon read more

A very popular pub style eatery that offers more than your normal pub style restaurant. Been here many times before and it's been many months since my last visit. Really good menu selection and nightly specials their prime rib specials are pretty good. Great salads and sandwiches to burgers. I was not too happy the last time I was here when I ordered the stuffies for the first time and they deep fried the suckers so they were crispy and completely oily on the shell. But this time I had their open face prime rib sandwich Which was on the specials menu last Sunday. Sandwich was good but they left out my au jus for dipping the sandwich. read more

We traveled 1,700 miles to play a round of Golf at Fenner Hill in Hope Valley, RI (love this course) and stopped at the Cornerstone Pub for drinks and dinner at the bar. What a find! In the middle of nowhere but who are these people? This is a six star location, built around a rectangular bar that takes up 90% of the place, a craft brew expert on the premises and whoever the chef is deserves a Michelin star, no joke. The baked scrod is other-worldly, battered in a light crust we can best guess as cracker soaked in butter-- amazing! The Meatball and pasta deserves a restaurant of it's own, the gravy excellent and the pasta perfectly cooked. The only thing missing was a diving board. The staff were attentive, excellent, friendly and knowledgeable. Of the 1,700 mile journey, this was at the top of our list. read more

Ehhhhh..... My son got meatball grinder and he liked it he needed some extra marinara which they accommodated him with on the side the menu says meatballs are homemade. I got the buffalo wings to share with my son. I am a bit of a wing connoisseur and I do a great job on the grill myself (if I do say so myself). that said I would never get these again they were big plump undercooked skin ...great if you're really hungry and don't care about what a great wing should taste like. On a recommendation from the bartender I got the Italian grinder.... Just nothing that I would repeat. Kind of a soft wettish mess. Large portions great if you're starving but if you know a really good Italian grinder it's way below that bar. I will admit I am a bit fussy ....if you're not this place is great. On a positive note it has an awesome bar about 40 chairs in a large rectangle... the beer I got was super cold tasted super fresh and the selection was great. This place is always mobbed so they must be doing something right I say give it a shot but for me the food was just ehhhhh. read more

Great service, great area to watch the game on big screen. Burger was good, nacho's a little lacking. We would return.
