I went to Corner Shop yesterday for lunch and fell in love with the menu - great sandwiches, soups, sides, salads with interesting twists. I was thrilled when the food came out and actually tasted as good as the menu made it sound. Especially the Mac N' Cheese - wow. My mom called this morning and said it was the best she's ever had. I am eager to go back and try the Peanut Butter & Banana panini.... atmosphere is also cozy, and they have a cute little bar where you could dine solo. The only thing keeping me from 5 stars is that the server was not overly friendly, but didn't surprise me given that it's NY and a cafe. Overall, will definitely go back!

Its safe to say this is one of my favorite places in NY. I go to school a few blocks away and drag everyone who visits me to this little cafe. It reminds me of Paris. As far as brunch goes, the custard french toast is the best in town, and a must try that I have attempted to replicate at home more than once. The truffled mac and cheese is seriously amazing and the small size is perfect when paired with one of their delightful half salads. The truffled burger is incredible when order with the chefs recommended toppings, however this comes out to be $20 as each of the toppings comes at an additional cost. The garlic fries are delicious. The service may be a tad slow and perhaps pretentious from what these other commenters have said, but I did leave a shopping bag there last night and the woman who answered my call was nothing but charming when assuring me she would hold it for me until tomorrow when I could pick it up. Overall a great place to take a lunch date or a friend. Its like a little secret in the city!

Prior to reading the other reviews, I tought that what happened to us on this place might have been something that doesnt happen often, but I guess I was wrong; they are always downright idiotic and with total disregard for their customer. The french toast we ordered came burnt and we requested another one, just to be told that it was burnt caramel and that it was ok to eat (they decide for you) As we requested another dish, the server told my wife we would still have to pay for it. After this, I requested to speak with the manager, a young hippie that after 30 seconds of my explanation bluntly asked me "what do you want" as implying shut up. I politely requested other dish. He left, not without murmuring on his way out to the kitchen. As he came out, I confronted him to his cowardly complaint of my complain (not on my face)... to make the story short, we ended up leaving the place completely dissapointed with their attitude and lack of interest for listening a customer complaint.
