FOOD REVIEW: The Corner Stable
Modest mainstay doesn't do anything to 'wow' us, but we see why it has been around for 40 years.
The Corner Stable, located in the Church Lane Shopping Center in Cockeysville, MD, is a down-to-earth American restaurant that has been family owned and operated since 1972. The menu boasts babyback ribs and huge crab cakes, as well as other comfort grub, all at an affordable price point. With a 4.3 rating out of 1,359 web reviews, The Corner Stable has a loyal following of customers who rave about the food, service, and atmosphere.
The menu is filled with classic American dishes, including fried shrimp, salmon, and brownie sundaes. However, the standout dishes are the ribs and crab cakes. Reviewers say the ribs are fall off the bone tender and come with a great sauce, while the crab cakes have big lumps of crab and minimal filler. The menu also features a Wednesday $20 jumbo lump crab cake special, which includes fries or slaw and is a great value. For those looking for a little bit of everything, the Showstopper is a popular choice, featuring ribs, crab cakes, fries, and coleslaw.
The chef at The Corner Stable is not mentioned in the reviews, but the restaurant's family-run business model ensures that the food is made with care and attention to detail. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming, with an old school vibe that harkens back to the restaurant's opening in the 1970s.
Nearby landmarks include the Maryland State Fairgrounds, making The Corner Stable a great option for those attending events there. The restaurant is also located in a shopping center, which can make parking a little tight during peak times.
Overall, The Corner Stable is a great spot for families, couples, and anyone looking for classic American comfort food. The pricing is affordable, the portions are generous, and the quality of the food is consistently good. While the decor may not be the most modern, the friendly service and delicious food more than make up for it.
