We dined during Sunday Brunch around 10am and there was already a lot of people. The kitchen was already an hour behind and when we were finally served, we had no utensils and had to wait on those. The food was pretty average and not what I've come to expect from Cork. Music was being played overhead and it was nice, but combined with all the voices, it was hard to hear my friends easily. It was a very cold day, so if you like it cool with breezes from the doorway, stay to the front. Since this wasn't what I've experienced in past visits, I'll be back and try again.

Best place ever. Staff is efficient & always has a smile. Food is exceptional & new dishes superb.
This is a place where a woman can sit at the bar solo & it's like Cheers.....you meet friends & they remember your name.
Arlene & staff are top-notch!

This location is a must! As first timer's we will return!

Had to change our reservation from 5 to 7 people...Arlene called right away and updated the reservation. BEST BRUNCH in E-BURG!

Food.and service was great. We had the.pre fix NYE menu and was completely satisfied. However, we paid quite a fair price for dinner and was expecting to have nice dinner conversation, but there was a band there that was WAY too loud. Ruined the entire dining experience

Excellent food and service . The drink were excellent. The server was attentive and check on us frequently.

This past year we have dined there several times. Each time we are pleasantly pleased with the increasing quality of the food. It was always good but definitely was hit or miss- especially the freshness of the mussels which were uneditable. However, the last few months have been an excellent improvement- from good food to consistent excellent food.
Service is always wonderful. Everyone is friendly and very helpful. It can be a bit chilly at seats near the door which we try very hard to avoid. They are very accommodating with supporting digestive issues including gluten issues and inability to digest red meats. Substitutes to make dishes gluten free have been wonderful- there has been no compromise to the tastes or presentations.
The wine selection is a good one with affordable options. Everything is reasonably priced. Very enjoyable dining

We always want to like this place and try it once a year. The owner is great and super friendly. The atmosphere is friendly and comfortable. The food is just okay - nothing great. They were obviously under staffed so we didn’t have great service. So many other choices in the area. Not worth it. Sorry!

This was a very quaint unassuming restaurant. The customer service was wonderful and the brunch provided both traditional and non traditional options. Cost was appropriate for the menu options.

Delicious brunch!

Great food. Nice place to get upscale food locally.

First time here on a recommendation from a friend. Crispy shrimp, fish and frites, and pastrami egg rolls all very good. Fish tasted fresh. Wine by the bottle at reasonable prices. Wine selection decent.

Cozy. Staff eager to please. Food very good w/ varied unique selections.

Excellent service and delicious food! We will be back

Overall good food. Fish and Shepard's Pie was very tasty. Green beans where over seasoned (too much salt). Warm fudge cake was a little dry, but the fudge made up for it. Would go there again

Always an excellent meal and experience. Great music too.

Brunch was great. Servers seemed a bit overwhelmed by the amount of business. But they were always very pleasant. Charming place. Would go again.

Another great dining experience for us at The Cork. Excellent food and drinks at reasonable prices. Great service too!

Always a great choice for dinner. Nice variety of choices from light fare, sandwiches or entrees.

We met friends for a nice lunch. They fell in love with the place. The food is always so delicious! The server was great. She gave us great coaching and was a lot of fun!! We like bringing folks to this restaurant. A great experience!

Excellent meal! We loved the whole experience—delicious food and wine, attentive service and a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend!

It’s a confusing place because the pricing and menu makes it seem like an upscale wine bar but the food quality and ambiance feels like a dive bar. The staff was perfectly nice and it was clean but the vibe is bizarre.

Food was good but the "bad girl" martini was awesome.

There are lots of good menu options and we love the Light Fare selections. Our favorites are the Ahi Tuna Tacos, Short Rib Tacos, and the Shaved Lamb French dip accompanied by the rosemary & garlic frites. The frites are so good we sometimes get them as an appetizer... definitely not to be missed!

Good food..Great service.

Food was too salty. Appetizer and dessert were good.

Bbq sauce was amazing maybe bottle?
The soup was amazing

Best brunch in Eldersburg. Probably even all of Carroll County. Amazing.

The staff was friendly and helpful. And, my wife and I got to try a few glasses of wine we hadn’t had before. But, the food was, politely, lackluster. For example, I got the special: chicken fried flank steak because it sounded intriguing. Sadly, the breading was a rock hard shell that shattered when you tried to cut into it and the meat was hopelessly overdone. At the same time, neither the steak nor the sides were above room temperature. I think it’s safe to say we wouldn’t be rushing back anytime soon.

Overall, we were very disappointed. We were greeted and taken to our table. The server came, took our drink order. My wife water and wine, and I had just water. We ordered the cheese board, which arrived in a timely fashion. The arrangement and the choices were very good. After this opening, we waited and waited for our entrees of creamy shrimp and grits and the fish fries platter of beer-battered cod. Rather than creamy grits, my wife ended up with what looked like packed rice cakes, a few shrimp, and a bowl of cherry tomatoes and scallions. The cod itself was good, but the beer-battered part was coated in too much salt as were the fries. Aside from the overwhelming taste of salt in my mouth, the lack of attention in filling the water glasses also proved disappointing.
We went on a Friday night at 6 p.m.; and as the evening passed, the restaurant became more boisterous in anticipation of the band that was playing that evening.
Rather than feeling overwhelmed by the restaurant experience and wanting to go out again soon, it made us realize that our home-cooked meals were better than what we received here.

Great food with a mix of sports bar and wine bar.

Great menu and knowledgeable staff! Second time eating here and satisfied again will definitely be back again! Great for dinner or apps and drinks!

Corn and Clam chowder was delicious!! Always an enjoyable date night.

Menu is great. Very talented chef. Wonderful service - the entire staff is focused on giving the best guest experience.

Very pleasant meal with mom

Loved their drinks

I only made the noise level "moderate" because there was a baseball game, the Olympics, and a rugby match on at the time. Even with all this, it was easy to carry on a conversation.
The menu had many varied choices and I had a difficult time choosing which to order.
Food was excellent as well as the service.

Extensive wine list and more than adequate beer and mixed drink list. Half-price 2nd entree on Sunday afternoon--but you may need to remind your server. Owner charming and took time to chat. Server (name?) really listened when we made a request.

We have been eating at this restaurant since they opened. Great food, service and reasonably priced bottles of wine. When they first opened, there were a few dishes we didn’t like. Example - anything with ‘smoke’ flavor that had an artificial taste. We’ve been half a dozen times over the past year and it was delicious each time.

Food & service were outstanding! Can’t wait to go back
