Pint & Pizza deal @ Corks in Longos

Hi,

For those who are interested, the pint of craft beer and a pizza deal for $10 at Corks in Longos at the ACC is running all week long (Mon to Sun) all summer long.

Best value in the city IMO.

Cheers,

Al

It's a tremendous beer, the best Camerons have ever brewed (IMO) and I really, really hope that this doesn't remain 'seasonal' as it would seem foolish to take such a great beer off the market especially seeing as I rarely see Camerons taps anywhere around town these days.

It's a great place. Badly needed in the neighborhood. Solid line up, cask too, great menu. I'd like to see it open earlier than 5pm as I'd most likely go a lot for lunch but that's a minor quibble.

Welcome to the hood !!
