The Corner Tavern
102 E Rte 66, Flagstaff, AZ
Crema's Take
“This Flagstaff spot trades coffee shop ambiance for a convivial tavern experience, opening late when most places have closed their doors—perfect if you're a night owl seeking proper cocktails and conversation in a laid-back setting. While the food gets mixed reviews, when it lands, it really lands: think Wisconsin-style cheese curds and meticulously layered nachos that justify the splurge, paired with attentive service and a real cocktail program that takes its craft seriously. It's the kind of place where you settle in for a slow sit with friends, not rushing through, especially on those Sunday nights when Flagstaff's options are thin.”

I had high hopes for this place, but unfortunately, the food was a major letdown. I won’t be coming back anytime soon. There are plenty of other restaurants that do it better, and I’d recommend exploring those instead.
Fantastic food, drinks, and overall experience. The nachos were some of the best I’ve ever had because they actually layer all the cheese and toppings throughout the chips instead of just dumping it all on top which can result in a pile of dry chips underneath. But they lawyered it so that every chip in the pile had cheese and toppings. And the wings were so meaty and flavorful! We also got one of their shareable giant Moscow Mules, unfortunately I didn’t get a pic of it but it was delicious and quite boozy. I think this is going to become my go-to local bar food place!
Every menu item we ordered was delish. Great service. Food came out quick and hot. The cheese curds are to die for!!! Like legit Wisconsin style.
This is exactly what I wanted, at the time a "real Cocktail Bar". Beer just doesn't cut it for me. It is a bit pricey, ($13.45 for Double Smirnoff and Cranberry). At 4:00pm it was sparsely populated, perfect and relaxing. Bar Tender was exceedingly prompt and polite. Asked if I wished to run a tab. (That is standard practice now days, but not all Bar Tenders pay attention to this detail.) Good Job Corner Tavern! The only reason for 4 out of the 5 stars is due to the price. My Bar Tender was also Tori! Great Job!
My husband and I went here last Sunday night. It was actually not busy when we first arrived. Not many bars are open late on Sunday in Flagstaff so we ended up here. There was a great selection of beers and the atmosphere was really fun. During our trip, the best service we had was here! Kyle was our bartender, he was fantastic. He made us some fun shots and had extensive drink knowledge. He was very quick and personable. We only stayed as long as we did because he made it so fun for us. We were extremely impressed how he handled the bar because it got super busy all of a sudden and he managed the chaos like a pro and solo! Additionally, we got to play Mario cart on a huge screen. And Jell-O shots were fun, brought us back to our college days. This is now our favorite bar in Flagstaff and we will come back to visit Kyle again!
