Great local pub. Reasonable beer prices and nice bar staff. Food is always great ! Was there on 2 recent occasions for live music, sound was good but the only thing I could flaw was the poor lighting both times. Was very hard to see the artists. (yes, i'm a photographer so I will be extra critical of lighting). Overall, a great place !
A great spot with an owner who has taken great pride in turning this place back into the institution it once was! Great food, beer on tap, entertainment and still has the best sound system in the city.
Awesome place with awesome staff and great food. Definitely going back there again.

Great location for the new Sunday afternoon Blues! Sound is great and a fantastic line up of guests. Beer is cheap and food is great. If you liked Bay City, you will love Corktown!
Been going since 1970. Met my first wife there. What can I say? Seen some epic music performances and still going.
The owner is an exceptionally accommodating individual who takes a great deal of pride in his business. It's evident in the way he runs the bar as well as how he treats his staff. This location deserves a lot more recognition and in my opinion should be considered a cornerstone of Hamilton's entertainment venues.
A great spot to catch bands in Hamilton. A wide variety of genres from Celtic Traditional to local Rock, Blues and Funk shows. Very different programming from the days this was a hard rock and punk venue. New owners have done a great job of cleaning it up and making it more family friendly.Sound and lights are solid, techs are hard working. Staff are very friendly and I recommend the veggie burger!
Best pizza around !!! All the food is great !very nice place now !!!
Great staff...great food... Great service. Too noisey. Love the atmosphere.
The fish and fries were amazing. The server David was fantastic very friendly and had a great sense of humor. Definitely would go back
No place like the Corktown...Amazing place to perform and enjoy live music!! Fantastic ownership...All around, the class of Hamilton...
The bartenders were full of energy and smiles. The music performed was amazing. It was my first time there Nov 18 for a fundraiser for Tree of Stars. I will definitely be back again. ���

Went there for St Patrick's day celebration. It was awesome! The music and people were so welcoming. We ended up sharing a table with regulars and they introduced us to people they knew. We felt like part of the family. Food was great. Service was fast and friendly.
I will definitely be going back.
The Corktown is the place to go for live music and great pub food !
Great food! Nice job revamping the place. Will most definitely be back. Nice staff too!

Great service, good menu and always very good music...especially on bluegrass night!
Went recently for dinner because it only opens at 4.I walking into a wonderful atmosphere decorated with candles and jazz playing in the background. Wonderful staff and great food
Nachos Great, Hamburger okay, Fries and Chips Great. One of the better nachos out there, where they actually had melted cheese at all different layers of the nacho stack - and not just the top. Had a hamburger there, but was dry. Could use more sauce. The fries were amazing, tasted better than New York Fries. Kettle chips were good too.
This pub is located in Hamilton in what looks like a residential area. We arrived early enough to avoid paying cover because a live band was playing later that night. Fortunately for me, we left before we played because when they were practising, the
I've had two experiences here - one afternoon beer after an art show downtown and once to see some local bands (Feral Minks was amazing!). Both times the staff were incredible -- very kind and friendly. Great vibes for dancing or just hanging out. Thanks for a good time!! Will be back :)
Went to see Papa Skin Freak band, good music, good food, good drinks!
Seems like a great place to hang. good music and good crowd. I was disappointed with the drink selection at the upper bar. otherwise I'd recommend this place if yiu want to hear live music.
One of the best sounding venues in the city. The food is great as well. Nachos are very consistent and tasty.
The service was nice and friendly. The music was fun. The atmosphere was as you'd expect, which was good. The fish was mostly batter, but the Irish stew was the best I've ever had. Would come back for that alone.
Stop reading and get over here right now. The food is EXCELLENT, lots of good choices from the taps and a bunch of good whiskeys. Comfortable atmosphere, music is the perfect volume so you don't have to shout, seriously are you still reading this they have the best Irish stew you've ever had GO!!
