    Exactly what I want in a bar it's dark kind of grimy and the drinks are cheap. They also have a photo booth and popcorn sometimes 👍

    Don’t let the front fool you, through the doors at The Abbey sits a quality dive bar perfect for long sessions and quality conversation. 2 for 1 happy hour buds! Read more

    This place has everything. Pretentious white people planning European vacations, pool tables, pony tailed English bartenders, b&w photo both photos on the wall, good beer, red x-mass lights.

    Delightfully grim and divey. Come here for a cheap gansett and a game of duck hunt. Wash your hands after touching any surface.

    Between the popcorn vendor, photobooth, great people, and fun atmosphere you can never leave here without having a good time. Love the abbey :)

    Pee before you get here or be fine with a bathroom that should be a rest stop in the middle of Kenya.

    Hbo's tip is false. Girls episode happened in fada, not the abbey. Abbey is a non assuming pretty low key bar.

    The bar manager is proud of his wines, with good reason. They pair beautifully with Buckhunter.
