This small pub has a New England feeling. Close to the beach, Abbey is a friendly locals bar away from the Ocean Boulevard strip but within walking distance of it. The selection of beer is outstanding for South Florida, which seems to have a paucity in this category. With 10 to 12 beers on tap, customers can choose anything from stouts to light lagers. Their smooth on tap oatmeal stout melts in your mouth, customers say.
Brews are a bit expensive for a beer, but priced about right for South Florida.
The bar tenders are friendly and on the ball. But some people have complained that the bartenders aren't as cool as they used to be. Beer quality gets the best reviews from clients and food gets the worst rating. Of course, this is a brewpub, not a fine dining establishment. The beer selection is mediocre but the live music and fun atmosphere make up for it.
