I visited Corner Pub in Wilton Manors during my birthday weekend and initially had a great time. I brought three friends from Boynton Beach, and before my fourth friend arrived, three of us sat at the bar and ordered drinks. I had a Jack and Coke, one friend had a rum and Coke, and another had a whiskey and Coke. I paid cash for the first round, and including the tip, it came to $20 total on a Friday night, which is pretty darn good. Because the first round was so reasonable, I felt comfortable staying and treating my friends since they had been so kind to me for my birthday. We stayed until about 11 p.m., had several drinks, and overall I thought the pricing that night was very fair. My fourth friend later joined us and ordered Malibu and pineapple drinks, which also seemed reasonably priced. Because of that good experience, I went back on a Wednesday evening by myself, around 5 or 6 p.m. The bar was not very crowded, and I ordered another Jack and Coke. This time, the drink appeared noticeably smaller than the ones I had during my first visit, and the price was $12. With tip, it came to $14 for one drink, which surprised me. I’ve been to other bars in Wilton Manors, including places that feel a bit more upscale and less like a local neighborhood bar, where call-brand mixed drinks are usually closer to $8. I’m not saying anything improper happened, but the inconsistency in pricing left me confused. I did not see a clearly posted drink menu or price list, and I think that would help avoid misunderstandings for customers. Corner Pub seems like it can be a fun place, and my birthday weekend visit was enjoyable, but I would feel more comfortable returning if drink prices were clearly posted or explained consistently. But more so than even the drink prices, after my first drink, the bartender stood next to me talking to another customer — went back to the register several times and never offered to get me another drink. So I left. End of story.
