What People Are Saying About Abbey Pub

The Scene
Stone walls and blond-wood floors lend a homey feel; seating is divided between a main floor and a U-shaped balcony upstairs. Full-service dining complements the pub's music and sports events.
The Draw
Since the mid-1970s, big names in Celtic music have performed, and now the concert menu has expanded to include a who's who of indie acts. Prefer sports? A 15-foot television and 14 monitors throughout the bar carry satellite broadcasts of international soccer and rugby matches. A dozen drafts and even more bottled brands give patrons plenty of beer choices; a full menu of Irish and American food provides solid eats, from munchies to entrees and desserts. The Abbey also hosts one of the best St. Patrick's Day celebrations--if you can get in; the line usually stretches around the block.

This is really an incredible place to see a show at. They have two rooms - the concert hall and a bar next door. The admission in the bar is almost always free. The concert hall admission varies depending on which acts are performing on specific nights. I like the Abby because its easy to see the stage and hear the band from anywhere in the club. Drinks are pretty cheap too.

HAve been to the Abbey Pub a number of times in the past few years and to be honest the food was hit or miss. In the past few weeks myself and friends have been there about 6 times, for different shows. I have to say their new kitchen staff put out some kick ass food. We were there on Monday night, and had some of the best Irish Beef Stew we have ever had. And of course their burgers ROCK! Big and juicy...sweet potato fries upon request... Keep up the good work Abbey!!!!

I recently visited the abbey pub after being advised that a new chef introduced a kick arse menu and I was not disappointed, the food was excellent and it it was a through back to the many years and good times we had at the abbey enjoying the very best in traditional Irish and folk music. It is nice to see a known venue reinvent themselves and are now offering the best food in town. I hit it at the right for music also as it was Sunday after noon and I was in at the right time to enjoy the oldest traditional music sessiun on sunday afternoon,excellent.
