5 stars. But I'll wear odd socks and not understand that there's a problem.
Vegetarian options: Stir your drink with a carrot. Suck on a lime after taking a shot of tequila. Beer is a grain by-product. I can go on and on. No alcoholic beverage is a meat by-product.
Dietary restrictions: Consult a doctor.
Parking: Parking after 7 is free. Sunday is free. If you park on Decatur Street between 7AM and 9AM , Monday through Friday, you will be towed. Not ticketed. Towed. I should know.
Kid-friendliness: You got to be 21 to enter a bar.
Great Building, great owners, great staff and great patrons... So come on down to Decatur and have a drink or few. But remember to drink responsibly and never drink and drive...

Me and a group of friends have been hanging, playing chess and buying drinks here for the last 4 hrs and everything was great! There was only two of us left when the shift changed, the new guy who JUST got on shift came in, took our empty bottles AND UNFINISHED drinks, then told us:
"If yall wanna play chess you'll have to buy drinks" which is weird because he just cleared our flippin table. We informed him that we've been drinking all night and he said "buy more" which is extremely dangerous and shows a complete disregard for saftey
Im from here and work in the Quarter so getting profiled like this was absolutely ridiculous. The Bartender just assumed that none of the 10 drinks he cleared off the table was ours as he talked down to us in an oddly dismissive and condescending manner

My wife has an odd gait because she’s an amputee but the bartender on Friday on the 1145 pm shift peremptorily presumed she’d been over served and refused her device even before she’d limped to the bar.
Two weeks ago, the same bartender carded the same lady, my youthful but 62 year old wife (the same woman) and refused her but served me.
We think she may be prejudiced against good looking red heads. Is her husband’s lover a red head? What could be going on here? I’m baffled.
No need to break out a tie when in route to this place. The shot and a beer $5 special puts most the overpriced neighboring bars to shame. I like to drink local so I paid a premium for a local shot. Extra $2. Still well worth it.Go in the door singing a little Glen Cambel
Yet another dive bar on Decatur Street, many a good time to be had here.

Yep it's the abbey
The best bar in New Orleans! The bartenders have more personality than anywhere else, and the owner is not only smart and witty, but gorgeous as well ;)

Hoyle is awesome and so is Josh. Great fun and great friends made. Do yourselves a favor. Come to to New Orleans and hang out at the Abbey. Bishop might bounce you if you're not careful though.

If you don't mind the bartenders ignoring all the people openly selling cocaine inside the bar and at the tables right outside the front door at all hours of the day and night, it's cozy. Left after someone dropped a meth pipe in the doorway and the bartender just laughed.
