Corner Cafe in Stoughton Offers Home-Cooked Meals, Friendly Atmosphere

The Corner Cafe, located at 79 Canton Street in Stoughton, at the corner of School Street, has become a popular dining spot in town, opening at 6 a.m. with a full breakfast menu cooked to order, staying open through lunch.

Fresh home-cooked meals served in a warm and friendly atmosphere is all you need. The flat screen TV, Wi-Fi and an atmosphere like home will make it your new favorite place. They also have what have to be the biggest pancakes in Stoughton. 

Patch sat down wth the owner of the Corner Cafe, Ed Wormald, to find out just what makes the Corner Cafe a special Stoughton destination for a good home-cooked meal.

Wormald and his wife, Melanie Cobb, own the restaurant, which used to be the home to Best Pals and the Stoughton Coffee House.  

The Wormalds live in Stoughton and have three children, Kenny (of Footloose fame), Lee and Dylan.

Patch: How long have you been in business?

Wormald: We opened in February of 2012 so it has been just over one year now. We've been busy and feel very welcome in Stoughton. Our customers come regularly and enjoy our changing specials.

Patch: How did you get in to the restaurant business?

Wormald: Prior [to opening Corner Cafe] I worked in construction for over 30 years, but I got sick with an illness that settled in my heart and wasn't able to do any heavy lifting or anything stressful.

I always wanted to open a restaurant. My friend owns the building which has been a food establishment since 1927. So I decided to open the Corner Cafe here.

Patch: Are there any favorite dishes that you serve?

Wormald: I make a mean corned beef and I have an Ed's Stuffy which is fresh clam stuffed with chorizo, onions, peppers and homemade bread crumbs.

We do breakfast and lunch specials every day. Today [the day of the interview] we had Turkey Au Gratin homemade soup, Clam Chowda, Ed's Cuban Sandwich and our ever popular Corner Burger which has two all beef patties with American cheese, lettuce, tomato and onion with a special family recipe sauce.

If you're really hungry you can get the Triple Corner Burger and add bacon.
