Walk-ins are always welcome. Reserving is how we know to watch the clock for you.

Or call 574-389-7900. Someone is at the bar from four.

We use your phone number to confirm the table and nothing else.

The Corner Bar sits on the ground floor of a building that has been the tallest thing in Elkhart since 1923, back when the hotel called itself Northern Indiana's Finest and meant it. The lobby still has its terrazzo. The kitchen is scratch. The bar is 21 and over, all night, every night, and we are not sorry about it.

It is not a lobby bar. Nobody wanders through on the way to an elevator. You come to the corner of Main and Marion because you meant to.
