The Cork & Fork

After a long car ride we found this place and I can't say enough good things about it. The food is fantastic. The venues fantastic. The owner's fantastic. The service was fantastic. If you don't stop here to eat you're making a mistake.

The food was delicious. I opted for scallops with the risotto. My partner had the rigatoni with chicken (as a substitute for sausage). Both dishes were well done and had savory flavors. We left with 2 pieces of the tiramisu which we ate at home. Our server was attentive and accommodating to our needs. The evening was busy with lots of people out for dinner but we got our food timely.

I'm not one that typically leaves reviews but after several visits to this restaurant I feel it merits a review. The owner of the Cork and Fork has truly created such a wonderful restaurant, the environment, the decor, the friendly staff, and the food are all 5 stars. Not too mention those damn cannolis are so good. 100% recommend if you are in or near Hardwick VT stop in and have some food.

Comfy Small restaurant with very good food. The burgers were cooked perfectly. In the past we have had several specials that were excellent as well. wait staff is very friendly and attentive.

What a special place! If you like good food, fine service, and a lovely atmosphere, you have to come to The Cork and Fork. We've been meaning to come and finally went for the first time tonight and we were blown away. I worked in fine dining for over twenty years and I am so impressed. These folks know what they're doing! We're always looking for great new places and we're so happy we found this sweet little venue in Hardwick. The staff is professional, the owners are friendly and welcoming, and the food is nonpareil. Tonight we had the scallops. Scrumptious. We can't wait to come back. And back and back and back.

This place really is a gem! Decent food is really hard to come by in the Hardwick area but this place shines above and beyond. We order takeout from here once a week and this place serves fantastic food at great prices, where else can you get a steak with a heaping side of mash potatoes and green beans for 18$? The food wasn’t the only thing that I found exceptional, the service was bar none and the owner Mark is always all hands on deck making sure you have everything you need. Napkins? A bag? Utensils? Great job to the kitchen and front of house staff. Can’t wait to swing in next week!

The place was packed and we were still able to get a seat with no reservations made. I do not like restaurants where it’s so loud that you can’t hear, but that wasn’t the case here.

We were waited on promptly, and were occasionally checked in on by other staff (possibly the owners), who weren’t assigned to our table making sure we were well taken care of.

The food was delicious, with great choices. That being said, save room for dessert, because they have the best cannolis I’ve ever had.

I’ve been to Cork & Fork three times now and can say that it has been very consistent!! The food, service and atmosphere are always on point and Mark (owner) is on top of everything!
My husband and I will be back with family and friends and we are so glad this experience has arrived in Hardwick!
We’ve had the ribeye, pork tenderloin, vegetable stir fry, squash salad, chicken strips and yummy cocktails so far! They even have the Hill Farmstead Edward beer!!
It’s usually pleasantly busy and so far we haven’t had to wait and wouldn’t mind it if we needed to. It’s worth it!
Hats off to Cork & Fork!

Enjoyed the atmosphere and the food was very good. Service was on point. The bar area is well stocked. Clean restrooms even during a busy time. Food looked as good as it tasted and was cooked to order. Cocktails were tasty. Only issue we had was the seats are a bit high around most of the restaurant, so if you need a lower table, there may be a wait. Otherwise, worth every cent.

From the drinks and dinners to the service, you can’t beat this place if you’re in the Northeast Kingdom. We had a weekly special that was so good! We can’t wait to come here again and again.

This place is a gem! Warm and inviting ambiance, delicious food, prompt and friendly service, and it's also really affordable (especially for how good it is!). I came recently with my family who were visiting from out of state, and they loved it so much that we came back again a few days later. Very grateful to have this place in the neighborhood!

Comfy dining room and friendly staff. My spouse loves the hamburgers with the jalapeno peppers - and their sweet potato fries. I'm Gluten Free and the GF buns are good. Have also had the pork tenderloin dinner and it was cooked just right and very tasty. The menu is small but includes a nice selection of salads, sandwiches and full dinners.

This is a go to for my family. The food is so delicious and everyone is super friendly

I felt like I was welcomed into a family as soon as I walked through the door. The food was delicious (drinks too!). Service was great.
It's clear this establishment is led with experience.
Highly recommend

Excellent home town bar and dining with great staff, food, and atmosphere

Friendly staff. Like they have wine on tap and a great selection.

Really nice place, really decorative, real friendly staff, really good food. Went with my family everything was 10/10. The desserts were rich and lovely I would go here everyday if I could .

It was our first time going there ,our whole family of 10, they were very accommodating to us, between good food and waitress, we plan on going back at least once a month
