I need to thank my cousin for introducing me to Emerald Corner. It's so close to my house I'm surprised it's taken me this long to hit up. Your typical sports bar with good food and people.The beer selection is pretty standard but not too pricey.
The first time I was here, we got the after 10pm appetizer special. 3 bucks for disco fries or chicken wings? Yes please. My favorite time to go is Wednesday night. Now, I've only tried their Prime Rib for 15 dollars (say what?) but will definitely try their other specials at around the same price point. (I actually may be going tonight, which would make it my third Wednesday in a row having steak for dinner here.)
Since it's so close to home, I can expect to see some old classmates from high school which is great. Also, there's a golf and (I wanna say) deer hunting arcade game, but I have yet to try.
I shouldn't expect much as far as seating goes in a bar, but seeing how I frequent here for the food and games moreso than the drinks, getting a table at busy hours is tough.
Overall, I recommend going to Emerald Corner for their food and drink specials. The 5 minute drive over is just a bonus.
We tried to go to the Shannon Rose for dinner, but that place was PACKED and noisy as hell...ended up at the Emerald Corner & absolutely LOVED IT! Small place, a lotta locals, a lotta TV's showing sports, & the best drink & dinner specials I have ever seen!!! Definitely go there if you want to sit at the bar, eat great food, drink, & watch sports & not pay a lot of money.

My merry crew and I went here for St. Patrick's Day. The place was filled to the brim with stereotypical guido trash. All they played was guido trash music. We were there for about 10 minutes when a fight broke out. There were 3 bartenders. The one female bartender charged a dollar extra per drink, even when signs on the wall clearly stated how much each costs. A real bitch attitude as well. The location is shady, located beneath Route 3, and adjacent to warehouses. We tried a variety of drinks. Nothing special about them. Their Coronas were horrifically skunked.
AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS!
Emerald Corner just celebrated their one year anniversary in September and is doing a great job in my mind. They're right near the Delawanna train station and walking distance from the La Quinta, Cambridge Heights and other townhome communities. The owner, Brian, is the nicest guy. The kitchen pumps out huge burgers, spicy wings (other flavors if you prefer) and serves up plenty of large beers. Nothing on the menu is over $10 and some items even come with a beverage. They allow private parties and are really flexible too.You can't go wrong with this place if you want a friendly atmosphere and yummy large portions of bar food.
Review Source:This place is so cool, fun and inexpensive. They have tons of drink specials every night and the bartenders are the friendliest around! They have darts, tv's galore and great bar food. They have wings available in like 20 different combos. Their burgers are juicy and filling. Their beers are cold and always flowing! It seems like a hole in the wall place but once you walk in, it's a blast. From the creepy locals that go there to the fun enviroment. It's an Irish pub with flair and a taste of Italian. The only complaint is when you sit at the bar. It's tough to explain but you will know exactly what I am referring to when you do it.
