Had dinner at The Abbot Pub yesterday with my family and I honestly felt compelled to write a review because it was such a wonderful experience.
This place is clearly popular — and for good reason. We arrived around 6:30 p.m. on a Sunday and there was a line out the door… and when we left at 8 p.m., there was still a line. That tells you everything you need to know.
It’s cozy, welcoming, and reasonably priced. The food isn’t trying to be ultra-fancy or overcomplicated — it’s just beyond good pub food done really well. There are healthier options if that’s what you’re in the mood for, and also classic comfort dishes like fish and chips.
There was one small blip with our table, but it was quickly resolved. Honestly, it wasn’t even that big of an issue to begin with, but the team was so apologetic and so generous in making it right. That’s what really stood out. The people who work there genuinely go above and beyond to make sure everyone has a great experience.
And the sticky toffee pudding? Through the roof. An absolute must-order.
Overall, we absolutely loved it and would highly recommend. If you’re looking for cozy pub food that tastes great, in a place that feels warm and well run, this is it.

Such a cozy and charming restaurant! The food is absolutely amazing - my current favourite is the smoked salmon eggs Benedict. The staff are so warm and friendly, and the service is always phenomenal. A perfect place to feel comfortable and enjoy a fantastic meal!

HVAC is powerful enough to cool both floors 🆒 2 screens show sports. music is really good; however, the ambient noise level is so high that music is lost 🗣️ ceiling level and material amplify the noise. the twin WCs are small but clean. filter coffee is surprisingly fresh and tasty; moreover, refills are free ☕ avg food. kind service. fair Q/P
Neighbourhood pub on Yonge Street, north of Lawrence in North York. Quaint, cosy, and fairly crowded even on weekdays. Family-type foods, omelettes, fish and chips, burgers, shepherd's pie, etc..Their sizes are generous, and my iced tea was refillable but coffee only, no cappuccino! They have Guinness pints! No reservations req'd but they open at noon so check hours before arriving. On weekends at 11am. Street parking or on side streets. Good casual place to meet with friends for a big meal, lots of regulars, of course!

Wonderfully tasty food, ample servings and friendly staff. The veggies were fresh, the mash was wonderfully creamy and sausages served hot off the grill.
