About Cork Bar & Restaurant

Cork Bar & Restaurant is a well-loved spot in the heart of Wilkes-Barre, known for its generous food portions and creative cocktails. The food often exceeds expectations, with some standout dishes like the gumbo, which many say is better than what is found in New Orleans. The restaurant features fabulous lobster night and offers daily happy hour specials, drawing diners from nearby areas. The service is generally excellent, with attentive staff such as Denise at the bar and Rachel providing great service, making the experience truly enjoyable. Customers praise the cozy atmosphere and the wonderful food, especially the sea bass special with pesto risotto, which is described as unbelievably tender and melts in the mouth. The lobster tail dinner, priced at $25 for 8 oz, and generous drinks add to the appeal. While the overall experience is often described as amazing, some have faced issues like slow service, unavailable menu items, or uncomfortable seating and cleanliness concerns. Despite these occasional challenges, Cork remains a popular destination for those seeking great food and friendly service in Wilkes-Barre.

Absolutely love going to cork! It’s a fantastic place for a date night, girls night or anything in between. The staff is always attentive and friendly. I have several other friends that make it a point to go there weekly and they always leave well fed and happy with their service from staff. You won’t regret adding cork to your list of places to visit!
