You’ve probably heard about Corner Bistro. It’s on anyone and everyone’s “best burger” list. But, for those who haven’t or don’t realize that its open to 4am. Now you do. And, since you probably find yourself downtown on most late nights, now you’ve got another option for those last round hunger pains outside of Chicken and Rice.
What’s so great you ask? How about a perfectly made to order burger at 3 in the morning? A fat, juicy patty served open face with bacon and cheese.
Mouth watering yet? Add fries and the meal is still under $10 bucks. For those not done with their night of drinking, Corner Bistro also offers $2 beers.
Overall, the restaurant is unassuming and a weird cross between a pub and a diner. A little run down and dirty and there are truly no frills given that everything is served in paper plates. Are the burgers truly the best in the city? Well, at the time you’re likely to go, yes. In general, they’re pretty darn good. If you’re really picky, you might find the patty just a tad thick and the meat a tad flavorless especially for a burger so dominated by the patty. But, that’s what ketchup and bacon is for! The fries are just okay. And, for one reason or another they don’t serve up onion rings! Eitherway, you must stumble on over the next time you find yourself in the West Village on the wrong side of midnight.
