On February 21st around 8:30pm we visited this establishment to play pool, grab a bite & a beer. After waiting for 17 minutes to be served, the server drops menus on the table and states "we don't serve tacos here before you ask". Two men in my party were Hispanic. Shocked that they both speak perfect English, the server stutters & apologizes. This attracts security for no reason at all because nobody was even raising their voices. If this is the caliber of employees this place chooses to employ, then id seriously consider spending your money somewhere else. If the CP doesn't know they have a blatant racist serving their paying customers, it definitely needs brought to their attention. It's 2024, can we not? We left because F the service & the food is mediocre at best.

I like the management here. One of the cooks dropped my salad in the kitchen which made my food take longer and they gave me a free drink to compensate. They a really good chicken ceaser salad and their double-dipped wings are delicious!

Staff is super friendly, great beer selection and the locals were super nice. We stopped in when we were out of town for work and would definitely go back. Place is clean and well kept. Be aware that they do allow smoking unfortunately.

This review was written by my wife. Wing Quest - Week 8: This week's wing challenge happened in The Corner Pocket Pub located in Riviera Plaza at the corner of St. Joe & St. Joe Center Roads in Fort Wayne. This establishment is a pub (you can tell from it's name). It's also a pool hall with more pool tables than one can count from any seat in the house. But it also has one of the best floor plans for such an enterprise which allows all patrons to enjoy separate activities without interference from other things going on. It's quite spacious inside but also boasts a large patio out front for seasonal dining or year-'round smoking. Corner Pocket's menu is chock full of interesting and note worthy pub food from Favorites (starter plates) to Burgers, Sandwiches, & Wraps to Platters to Award Winning Wings to Salads, Pizza, and Grinders, plus a fine array of sides. Wings service is unique to Corner Pocket because the customer chooses EXACTLY how their wings are to be prepared. First choice: Bone-in or boneless. Second choice: Normal (13 min. cook-time), Extra Crispy (18 min. cook-time), or Extra Extra Crispy (25 min. cook-time). Third choice: Wet - dipped in sauce, Grilled - dipped and put on grill, or Double Dipped - sauced, grilled, & dipped again. Fourth choice: Medium, Hot, Fire, BBQ, Spicy BBQ, Teriyaki, Sweet Heat, Garlic Parmesan, Hot Honey Garlic, Honey Garlic, Honey Gold, Mango Habanero, or Honey Sriracha sauce(s). Fifth choice: how many wings will be ordered. Our samplings included Wet Spicy BBQ, Grilled Fire, Wet Mango Habanero, and Double Dipped Honey Sriracha; all ordered Extra Crispy and all were done perfectly per our preferences. There was no slimy skin and no resistance in removing meat from bone. There was just chicken, marvelously tender inside and beautifully crisp outside. We tend to have our wings dressed in the spicier rubs and sauces found in the eateries we visit but, though tasty, none we tried on these wings were especially capsaicin heavy (at least to our heat-trained tastebuds). Fire has great flavor with a nicely heated after-affect. Spicy BBQ and Mango Habanero are pretty close in the heat department. They're both slightly sweet with plenty of happiness for the palate with just enough heat to know it's there. Honey Sriracha tastes distinctly of ginger and provides a subtle dance of spice on the tongue. People with particularly sensitive oral linings may want to stick to the other sauces provided. No matter how you choose your prep at The Corner Pocket Pub you will receive the most expertly prepared custom wings on the market. You have our word on that! FYI: Wings may be ordered in increments of 5 starting at $6.99 and going up to $27.99 for 20 pieces. Celery, sides of bleu cheese or ranch, bone receptacles and wet naps are provided. Full bar service is available, Pull tab tickets can be purchased from wall-hung dispensing machines. Service on the day we visited was exceptional.

Stop serving wings and most bar for at 11:00. Just an FWI! Was really looking to try these wings based on the review but they wouldn't budge!

Chicken caesar salad had very little chicken and was very dry. 12$ for leaves basically.

Aside from being asked to leave the bar for no reason, we were just sitting at our table having a beer, the security guard man handled my female friend to the point of leaving bruises on her and breaking her jewelry. Never again! Shut up

Truly no better wings in Fort Wayne than CP! Double dipped extra crispy, half sweet heat and half honey sriracha! Best bartenders and servers around!

Delicious garlic parm wings!!! They were really moist and had a fantastic flavor to them I mean I would highly recommend them for sure! I am not a huge fan of spicy food but I did try the mild wings and they were pretty good as well (definitely get the garlic parm wings haha) And if you are looking for a place to drink go no further! This place has deals every day of the week and they are pretty great deals! 3 dolllar beers or 2.50 well drinks or buckets.. I mean you name it and they had something for each night of the week
Amazing local bar in Fort Wayne! Food was great, drinks were perfect and service was excellent. Abby was our server. She was super friendly and knows the menu well and was ready with suggestions for us. The Veggie Burger was phenomenal, as were the green bean fries. The atmosphere was diverse and welcoming. Everyone from the staff to the other guests were super chill and friendly. We stopped on our way to Michigan to catch the Super Bowl, which was being played on so many tvs I couldn't even count them all. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone passing thru the area or to anyone local looking for a good local bar to make their "local".
