The Cornerhouse in Lancaster

We ate here on a very busy Saturday evening due to Lancaster Music Festival. The service was a little slow to start but then was excellent. The food was delicious. Freshly cooked,very tasty and piping hot. Very reasonably priced. A modern restaurant with a nice atmosphere.

Bee. Going a while and no issues as such! I had the seafood pasta , no squid rings and hardly any other fish plus it was tasteless even after I put salt on and spaghetti was undercooked. Cocktails aren’t made from scratch they use the ready made syrups but still charge premium prices manager was rude to my auntie and very patronising.

Made a same day reservation, food was decent but a bit overpriced imo for what it was, live music was also very loud so was a bit hard to conversate in there.

Absolutely dreadful from start to finish 'the steak was to overcooked and tasteless 'the chips were hard 'the desert wasn't greatest here either "expensive night but food dreadful x the waiter was extremely rude and annoying x won't ever return we won't lack of class I would say avoid like the plague

Very lively bar and loud music. Just about OK in the restaurant and made for a good atmosphere. Fast service, food was good (pizza topping was excellent, base tasty but could have been crispier… 8/10). Enjoyable evening

Another lovely afternoon at the Cornerhouse. Good food as usual and all the staff are brilliant, great service, and very friendly.

We took our grandchildren here for early evening meal during happy hour as we have done on many occasions, the service we received was of the highest order, nothing was too much trouble, the food, as always, cooked perfectly, brilliant selection and great value for money, as a group with young children the staff were attentive and helped the kids with their orders and couldn’t be more helpful Would highly recommend the Cornerhouse and we will be back again soon 💙

My partner booked a table for the two of us for tonight Friday 12th January for 7pm When we got there he said there wasn’t any room in the restaurant and we would have to sit in a booth in the bar area . We got a drink snd sat down I wasn’t happy with the situation, I went to the toilet through the restaurant looking around there were four empty tables. Why couldn’t we have had one of those has we had booked.! Very disappointed in the way it was dealt with. We ending up walking out without eating. This is the second incident we have come across with this restaurant. 😞

Came here New Year’s Eve for food and drinks. Food was lovely and good price. Service was fab and staff were very friendly. Nice atmosphere for New Year’s Eve. Thank you

My meal was enjoyable I had steak but my parents didn’t enjoy there’s they had butternut squash spinach goats cheese in a sauce in a pie my mums pastry was hard. A difficult to cut there was no sauce and very little goats cheese on a positive note the server was friendly helpful

Although the food and service was acceptable the place is worse than filthy. Keeping your air conditioning units in the ceilings is basic cleaning standards and are a health risk breathing air coming through filthy units and to look up and see your sat under dirty black cobwebs that have obviously been there for some time and no they weren’t Halloween decorations.

Incredible place. Very reasonably priced, attentive and friendly staff, gorgeous decor, what more could you want?

We went as a group of 10. There were some mishaps, like starters arriving after main courses were eaten, pre-ordered desserts not available, but for me the awful pasta was the striking feature. The Linguine al Simone, of which 3 were ordered, was almost completely lacking in Salmon, with a watery cream sauce. This is the second time of trying pasta here, and I won’t do it again.

Went in the evening and were seated right next to the live band so couldn’t hear the person I was trying to have a conversation with. We had to pre-order to be told at the table that some items were out of stock but weren’t notified prior- what’s the point in pre-ordering? Garlic breads came out after the mains when we’d nearly finished or had finished so were no longer wanted as we’d finished. They said they’d read the order wrong despite it being the same format as the other garlic breads that came out on time. All pasta dishes are very runny and mushy and quite bland. Won’t be returning

We went to Lancaster for a day out - we were looking for somewhere to have lunch and so glad we found The Corner house. Staff were very attentative. The food was really nice and good portions. The live music was an added bonus too. Will def visit again when we are in Lancaster.

Dont bother going Table of 8 booked not one happy person Burnt yorkshire and roasters warmed up beef like boil in the bag . Sirlion steak full of fat fillet steak must have been frozen meat Spot the prawn in your meal not What a waist of tjme and money will never go back .

Excellent food, superb service and very delicious brownies! It is such a classy place with great music and the team are very friendly! It is the place to be and I would totally recommend to everyone! 10/10!!!

Absolutely shocking could build a house with this brownie thanks a lot my wife is now crying and I’m really not happy

Having had a great meal here in May, we were looking forward to a return. Unfortunately, the food was poor. Starting with a mussels starter, about 50% of the shells were broken, leading to many pieces of shell being stuck to the flesh, very unpleasant. For the main, two of us had Beef Stroganoff, the beef was overcooked and extremely tough, we ended up having it boxed up to take home for the dog. We also had a burger, this too was overdone and very dry, which was surprising, as it came with an apology for the delay.

Lovely meal out with some work colleagues. Would definitely recommend the crispy chilli beef and the salt and pepper chips, amazing and so tasty! Great choice of good and decent live music albeit a little loud to carry on chatting inside but plenty of seating outside

Can’t fault this place at all, staff welcoming from the start despite being busy, part of a large preordered party so was expecting a wait but no! Food came out quickly, tasted fresh and in generous portions. My friends were very impressed with their meals too, even offered to take what we couldn’t eat away. Service was excellent, consistently offered drinks and very polite throughout. A great night had by all and at a fraction of what most places charge nowadays, thank you very much for a lovely evening. We will definitely be back 🙂

Confused from the start. We were told we had to prebook, when we got there this is for only groups of 10? We received our precooked food before we had ordered drinks. We were then pretty rushed through our meal, in and out in less than an hour. We feel we were treated as happy hour customers who unfortunately paid full price. Also one of our party couldn’t make it as was poorly. We were told as pre booked and pre cooked we had to pay for the meal, which we did and took away in a doggy bag. Finally came to pay the bill and was then told we would not be charged for the the meal for our friend. Dark room, average food.

This use to be a good place to eat but the standard of food has gone down. Went a month ago and thought it was a one off bad day for the chefs. Unfortunately today was even worse. We had the roast beef dinner we had to ask for a steak knife and other diners had to do the same. Some of the vegetables was undercooked and some was overcooked. The sticky toffee pudding was burnt on the top. As a former chef it is disappointing when a restaurant serves food of such a poor quality.

Aye at the cornerhouse a couple of weekends back. Service was efficient with the added bonus of being moved to a booth without asking once available which was a nice touch as felt more private for us both. Only down side for me was whilst the food was quick and very reasonably priced was a little under seasoned and lacks the real wow factor. However outside of that very efficient, enjoyable and a good meal out for a reasonable price.

Went on a Friday evening for happy hour , the atmosphere was lively, staff attentive and food above average. First time I’ve been in years but would definitely return with the family. Only negative / feedback was we wanted extra drinks and no staff around to offer this so had to queue at the bar whilst good sat on the table.

Lovely staff. Great music. Good wine. Food was good, piping hot. Good GF choices. Will definitely go back.

Starter plates left in a pile for us to pass around. Drinks again left for us to pass around. Then the waitress for the main meals just learn across people to the other side of the table or if she couldn't reach asked people to...

Came here for daughters 21st meal. The food was nice, although, if you get steak, let them know exactly how you want it cooked, we asked for medium/rare, and to us, it was medium/well. No redness at all. Other than that, it was OK. Would...

3 of us had the peri peri chicken and it was so dry we had to send it back. The pizza was ok . The staff are all great but unfortunately won't be back as its the second time we've been and the food has...

Booked for 7.45.seated at 8.15.extremely noisy we could barely hear each other speak. Reduced menu, about which we were not advised in advance. Once we ordered we did not get our starters until 9.00. Main course for 7 of us followed eventually. For the other...

I have frequented the corner House 3 times. I have never been disappointed!! Friendly professional staff. Excellent food. Highly recommended for all ages.🤩🤩🤩

I have booked a table for 3 people, for 20:45, got the confirmation on my email, after 10 minutes i got a email saying that my table was canceled. No additional information was given.

Went today for Sunday lunch not been for a few months. Was still the same excellent quality tasty food ,in these cost of living crisis thought might of been a price hike or not the same quality, but 100%the same price and quality Well done...

Amazingly friendly and welcoming staff from start to finish the bants on are cocktail making class was brilliant and the barman will was brilliant at showing us how to make amazing cocktails and keped the laughter going will be booking again

Went on a works do of about 20 people - given the amount of people and paying happy hour prices I wasn’t expecting much. However, service was good and the steak was a decent size and cooked perfectly. Would recommend 👍🏻

I planned a night away for myself and my wife. I booked a table for two, early doors to take advantage of the Happy Hour cocktails and food. Very busy Friday evening but there were plenty of staff on and they coped very well. Friendly...

Amazing food. Amazing cocktails. Amazing prices. We had the steak which was the best I've had in a long time. We had lots of cocktails, all generous, tasty and delicious. We recommend the pink panther. And really good value with the earlybird specials. Highly recommend,...

Been to corner house a few times and can't fault the team, even when short staffed they tried their best to serve us quickly. Been served mainly by Will, Josh and Mel who are all great assets to the team and always have a warm...

Couldn’t fault this place-didn’t realise we had booked during happy hour so a nice little bonus! Service was good and all our pizza and pastas were great-especially the pasta. Reasonable drinks with good service so I’ll be back👍

I’ve dined here numerous times and it can be hit and miss, however I don’t think I’ll be back after this time. Middle aged man serving was rude, at one point said he was too busy to take an order and we would have to...

Big thank you to Will for a most excellent cocktail extravaganza. 8 of us for a hen party and we had such a brilliant time with games, cocktail making and lots of shots! Will really made the experience a lot of fun and he is...

We visit the corner house regular and always enjoy the food, however on two occasions now the manager ( who wouldn’t say his name ) was extremely rude. ( one with the long thin beard ) When we got there we needed to wait for...

i just want thank Simon and all the staff at The Cornerhouse for making our wedding day extra special from the start. Karla made us feel welcome and spoke with Simon the manager who was so helpful in sorting out a three course menu for...

Rather than the sometimes study and formal cocktail making experiences, Will hosted what can only be called a fun interactive cocktail games night. With a glass of prosecco to start the evening and a good selection of spirits, we made a fair decent range of...

Cocktail Masterclass - best night hours fun we have had in ages. Mix of friends and family making cocktails and playing games under the great supervisions and guidance from Will, experience mixologist and bar tender. Highly Recommend. Well done corner house for pitching this perfectly.

Just had a lovely meal with my daughters and granddaughter. Food was tasty and piping hot. Prices were reasonable but we did have mains from the happy hour menu. Staff were attentive but not fussing round us too much. Will go again.

Quick service, great menu and fantastic tasting food-so much to choose from, and we were all really pleased with quantity, quality and price

Fantastic value for money, huge portion sizes (the pizzas are so good) really friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. The drinks selection is impressive too

Lovely restaurant in the centre of lancaster, the food was lovely and massive portions, the cocktails were really nice quality too. The Staff were attentive and it had a really nice vibe to the place, modern and welcoming. Would definitely recommend.

Visited for a joint birthday in June. From start to finish, Olly was amazing. From booking the table, to helping us with our ever changing numbers and even putting candles in the desserts for the birthdays. Nothing was to much trouble. The food was great...

Had dinner here to celebrate 22ns birthday of a friend. Food was delicious, service was perfect. Our waitress Julia was very friendly and happy to help with all requests. Would definitely recommend, and will definitely return.

Ace food, ace prices. Julia the waitress fantastic all night. Could not have asked any more from the Cornerhouse. Cheers

My wife and I visited today for lunch, the place was virtually empty, one table behind us and a table of six arrived as we were leaving. Promising start, a lovely bottle of wine. However our food took an eternity to arrive, when I asked...

excellent long island, terrible espresso martini - tasted bitter- rather miserable bar staff unfortunately, however exceptional service from a waitress called Poppy, helped us with everything, 10/10 stellar service on her end.

Fuimos a visitar a nuestra hija que estudia en Lancaster. Fuimos a cenar la primera noche y realmente nos sorprendió...

Fantastic place. The staff were helpful and friendly. The food was amazing (as were the cocktails). Priced very reasonably and they have a happy hour on food. Will definitely visit again.

My first visit to the Cornerhouse despite living in the area for many years. It was time for some friends to have a reunion. We received a warm and friendly welcome on arrival and the service throughout the evening was faultless. It's great when waiting...

We sat down after a short wait and out order was taken 10-15 minutes after. The guy who served us was lovely and friendly. The good was actually not bad to be fair. When I booked I hadn’t realised it was like a slightly posh...

Your service skills are rubbish. Call yourself waiting on staff but are incapable of even that. Asked to order a drink from a young gentlemen, he then proceeded to tell us to wait a sec, I then watched him leave and go grab a basket...

We arrived at 7 for a meal booked in advance for that time. We waited at the bar but none of the staff even acknowledged us, let alone offered to serve us, for 5 minutes. Eventually, someone came through from the restaurant area and asked...

Called in for a drink but was persuaded by a friend to eat here. Separate eating area from the bar. Food very tasty. Three empty starter and main course plates. Shared a dessert between the three of us. Very reasonably priced.

We visited on a Sunday afternoon with a group of 4 adults and 5 children. The staff were brilliant, nothing was too much trouble! The food was great and really good value for money and the cocktails were fantastic. The barman really took pride in...

My parents were visiting from America and as Americans we were having a hard time finding good food until we ended up here. It was an amazing night out with delicious pasta dishes and a fantastic dessert, you have to try the Millionaire Shortbread Caramel...

My hubby and I visited last Saturday, whilst in town, it's such a lovely looking venue inside, with great decor, the staff are amazing, so attentive, our food arrived promptly and it was totally delicious! We will be back next week

Bit too loud can't hear when talking to people sitting at your table, had chicken burger, well it was a chicken breast in a bread bun, couldn't eat it, very dry, wasn't offered an alternative or a refund just an apology, staff friendly and attentive

Fantastic food superb service all the staff were so friendly Very dog friendly a pleasure to visit we will defiantly be back

Food very good and good value for money. Cappuccino excellent. The staff were very pleasant and prompt giving care and attention. The only downside was that I found it rather dark, cosy but dark and I had difficulty reading the menu. Having said that I...

Visited on a Saturday night for a few drinks with a group of friends for cocktails. I haven't been out for a while as I've just had a baby. I had been looking at pictures of cocktails online and when I got the cocktails I...

We came here because the menu is really inexpensive. Unfortunately you can tell that the food is cheap when it comes out. It isn't very visually appealing and when you taste it you are disappointed further. I can't help but think if they spent more...

My boyfriend and I spent the weekend in Lancaster and were recommended here for dinner. We both had a starter (sticky sausage and creamy mushrooms) and pasta for main (he had a creamy chicken number, and I had a vegetarian goats cheese one). The portions...

I have visited the Cornerhouse twice this month with work colleagues, once for a late lunch and the other on Saturday evening for an early dinner. On both occasions the food was fabulous (admittedly I did have the arriabiata on both occasions, twice it was...

Had food in the restaurant and drinks in the lounge. Had starters and main course and was blown away at how good both courses were. The chicken was succulent and the finest cut without an inkling of fat or gristle and the mix of seasoning...

We had booked a table for Saturday evening. When we arrived it seemed noisy and very busy. However we were soon seated and have to say the staff were very efficient and very pleasant. The food was superb and served very promptly. We called in...

Last night i went fir a quick drink after work. You have to go inside to get to the outside space , it does make sense on quieter week days like a Wednesday rather than have someone stood outside all day. Good size outside space,...

Waited outside for a long time whilst our table was ‘being cleaned’ only to eventually be taken inside and then taken back outside. Why not tell us we would be sat outside (away from the atmosphere) in the cold and wet? Took nearly 20 mins...

Exceeds expectations every time. I cannot fault the restaurant, the bar and the staff. The food is simply the very best in Lancaster in my view. Its not consistantly good, its consistantly excellent and from a cost perspective, I think it would be extremely difficult...

We had cocktails (2 for a tenner), nice shots and the food was fantastic. Staff was friendly and helpful..loved everything about this place

Amazing food, and drinks! Lovely service from Amelia very attentive. . Gorgeous playlist!! lovely lighting too! really enjoyable atmosphere

Visited with friends, food was excellent as always! We were served by Chelsea who was brilliant, couldn’t have done anymore for us. Then we went into the bar where Olly and the team looked after us! Amazing cocktails, food and drinks in a fab atmosphere.
