Cornerstone Artisanal Pizza Craft Beer

My favorite pizza is the Farmhouse, featuring acorn squash, pecans, goat cheese, prosciutto, and mozzarella—it's absolutely perfect! My husband can’t get enough of the BBQ Pork and red cabbage pizza, which is also fantastic. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water! We also adore their soft pretzels, grilled Caesar salad, Duck Bacon Poutine (a must-try), and stuffed cherry peppers. Although I’m not a big beer drinker, the wait staff always helps me find a beer that I enjoy. When I’m not in the mood for beer, I often opt for a delicious cocktail made with ginger beer, strawberry, lime, and who knows what else—but it’s always fantastic! You must visit Cornerstone—just go. You'll be glad you did!

I've visited this place twice since it opened, and both experiences have been fantastic. The staff is incredibly friendly, and the atmosphere and decor are spot on. I love how they’ve given a modern twist to an old landmark in Portsmouth! Some might consider it a bit pricey, but I believe you get what you pay for, and I’m more than willing to spend my money at Cornerstone. Well done, everyone! Here’s to a long and successful run in your new home.

We encountered a disappointing experience at this restaurant. There were only two servers working when we arrived as a party of five. Instead of a warm welcome, we were met with eye rolls and informed that we would have to wait 15-20 minutes, despite seeing plenty of empty tables. I inquired about sitting at the back bar to watch the football game, but one of the servers sharply told the other that it wasn’t an option. Ultimately, we decided to leave, and no one even offered an apology as we walked out. It was quite disheartening. We ended up going to Olive Garden instead, where the staff was friendly and happy to serve my family.

The food was excellent and the staff was very attentive, but I couldn't help but notice that there were several loud expletives coming from the kitchen. This is not a family-friendly restaurant.

The pretzel appetizer, pizza, and beer were all fantastic! The service was outstanding too. I will definitely be returning. It’s the best pizza in the Portsmouth area!
