This place has potential but it sucks. Way overpriced. With tip a beer ends up being 17$ which is criminal. Foods decent but also overpriced. Whoever's running the show is just greedy. They don't even have specials and its just a normal run of the mill pub in the middle of knowhere. Absolute joke. Put this one on the avoid list unless you like getting ripped off!

Could be about ten percent cheaper but it's a friendly local!

This was a poor experience. I'm not inclined to denigrate small business owners, as I am one myself, but the service was extremely poor, the food took very long and consisted of re-heated frozen burger patties. The staff were not considerate to our kids (lots of kids in there), did not take our orders in a timely manner or bring us anything. It overall just sucked. Will not go back.

We booked a reso for a very good friends bday, and Mandy made the whole brunch very special. We were all extremely happy with her and her teams service. Great personalities go a long way with great food. Highly recommend.

Message to the Abbot management. Bartender/Server was possibly the worst service I’ve ever experienced in Toronto. We waited 15 mins to be acknowledged, but we saw the bar was busy so took no offence to it. We follow by ordering 2 Long Islands and a spicy Caesar with pickle juice. We sat on the patio and waited for our drinks. We then ordered fries about 15 mins after our drink order. Our server marched over to basically yell at us and said “we don’t have pickle juice behind the bar and I’m not grabbing it. Do you still want it?”. We were completely pleasant and accepting of the time we’ve been waiting because the restaurant was busy but I was so taken it back about the attitude she gave us. Was asking for pickle juice offensive? She made me feel bad for asking for a drink the way I like it. The fries then subsequently arrived before our drinks. Our Long Islands came tasting like rum and coke… not a Long Island? My Caesar came with horse radish… I would have liked to be notified of this, maybe you could have taken the time you spent with your rude comments to tell me about the way that you make the drink. We came in good spirits and after our servers attitude, it really left a sour taste. At the end we didn’t tip our server based on the outrageous attitude we didn’t deserve and our server said “thank you”… looked at the receipt, and then said “or not thank you”. 

To our server: How much money did you want me to pay you to make us feel bad for coming into your bar?

So what n the day of the power outage I was stuck without a way to cook for myself so I headed up Eglinton to find somewhere to eat. The first spot I found with Power was The Abbot. When I got there you could tell it was busier than usual and there was only 2 staff members available (Kat and Aimee) and they worked TO THE BONE making EVERYONE comfortable

I didn’t even have to wait 5 mins to be served, I had a beer and a water within seconds and my I thought I would be waiting for at least a half hour before my food order was ready but magically because the staff here goes above and beyond I had my food in like 10-15 mins and it was hot and delicious

When you come here you may wrongfully assume this is just another pub in Toronto but once you meet Kat and Aimee you know you really found something special here

Couldn’t recommend more
