I have to warn you up front that this is a very dangerous bar - it's entirely too easy to get addicted to.
I first noticed the Corner Store one evening as I was leaving Galbraith's, which is just across the road and I thought it looked okay. Then I caught up with a friend there and was blown away. It might be small, but it's perfectly formed and packs a huge punch.
The Corner Store sells very good wines, thoughtfully selected and priced, and some good beers, but it's the cocktails that make it what it is. Each cocktail is carefully constructed and designed with the drinker in mind.
So you can simply go in, tell the bartender how you feel and a drink will be produced that will calm you down or get you laughing. It's that kind of bar.
