We originally stopped by because the bar’s name is spelled like my daughter’s name, which is rare to find. Great beer and atmosphere but the best part was meeting our authentically Irish bartender named Shauna!!!!! Loved learning all about Ireland from her!!!

We are from Canada and visited Abbeys over New Years 2023. Service was great and owner (Kathleen, hope I spelled it correctly) was super friendly and made us feel welcome each night we visited. She made it a point to come and speak to us every time we went in and even bought us a beer each! The food was amazing and fairly priced. Service was prompt and consistent. They even had our brands of beer which can be hard to find in New York. We had a great time multiple times over 5 days and would recommend Abbeys to everyone if visiting New York. Thank you Abbeys Tavern for having us! ❤️

My son and I met up with a friend here while on a trip to NYC. Our friend frequents The Abbey and highly suggested that where we meet. After just walking in the door, I understood why. Immediately, you feel welcomed and it only got better! Our server was great with service! The owner, Kathaleen went around to every table checking to make sure everyone had everything they needed and how their service was. When she came to our table and spoke with us, it was like speaking to an old friend that I just saw last week. The food was perfect. Service was 110%. If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would. I will definitely go back to The Abbey whenever I make it back up to NYC. I highly recommend this place to everyone!!!

This place was amazing! Great customer service and the food was incredible. The apps we ordered we the Pretzel with Cheese sauce and the pigs in a blanket -sooooo good! For my entre I had the Penne a la vodka and it’s some of the best I’ve ever had. The sauce was the perfect consistency and the prosciutto and bacon really took the dish to another level. I love that it also came with a side of parmesan.

I came here for UFC 298 and it was a $10 cover charge to enter. I can’t comment on the food or service while sitting at a table but you’re in good hands if you sit at the bar. Both bartenders were attentive and quick to get everyone their drinks. The atmosphere itself looked to be a mix of locals and young professionals from all around the city. If you’re here to hang out and listen to music it’s a great place to do so. If you’re here to chat with other people it’s a great place to do so. Glad I had a good experience the first time and can see myself coming back in the future. Don’t forget to take care of your bartender.

Great pub atmosphere, good bar food that’s made with quality ingredients, and genuine staff that is there when you need. Was that way back when I first came here thirty years ago. Welcomed our large party and we had a great time.

Abbey tavern is the best! I love going here for trivia and any other night. Staff is super friendly and I enjoy the nachos

Awesome place to eat/drink. The food honestly surprised me in a good way when I first visited. Plenty of TVs, staff is extremely accommodating/welcoming. Cant recommend it enough, had so many great days/nights here before and during covid. Anxious to be able to sit at the bar again soon, though.

Abbeys is the place to go when you’re in downtown jersey city and you need to feel like you’re back at your local bar. Austin is the best bartender who gives great service, has great musical taste, and let’s you know you’re welcome. Check it out!

Stop here for hearty Irish food that’s kind to your wallet. If you can, sit on a high top table in the window area and watch the world go by. Our server, Marie was friendly and charming!

The waitress was very sweet and quick. We didn’t have to wait long for food or drinks. I love how crispy the mozzarella sticks were ( try it, you’ll like it). This is definitely a spot to hang out for lunch, dinner, or to watch a game. I will be going back.

Bartenders are super friendly and make their drinks to perfection, sometimes a little strong which I like. Great atmosphere, and the food is just as fantastic.

Review 25 (2022-05-14 - Rating: 4)
Liked the vibe, nice staff and people. But paying 16 dollars (incl tip) for a Delerium Tremens just hurts my European heart. Manhattan, I suppose.

Review 26 (2022-03-23 - Rating: 5)
Took the train in from CT for lunch with friends.Stopped by yesterday to this great place. Freddie was our bartender and met our friend Kathleen the manager again. This place is a hidden gem on 26th and 3rd av. The food was great and the service by Freddie was first class. What a great asset to your place of business. This is our 4th time here and just keeps getting better and better. Every trip in to the city should start with cocktail and food here. Great menu and prices for NYC.

Love this place! Came out from the hamptons to visit my nephew at NYU....had appetizers and drinks. Hot pretzels were amazing. To our surprise, it was music bingo night, which added a nice twist to our quick visit. We will return!!!!

I just had a drink but overall atmo was very nice. Not too overcrowded, the bartender was friendly and the drink price was less than expected. I think that should be a nice spot to watch football next time.

This restaurant is a gem!! We went here for the first time last night and we had the best experience. The pub is very cozy and you can choose to either sit at the bar or at your own table. You can see a TV from every seat so it’s a perfect spot for any sports fans. The food was phenomenal and the owner/bartender was the best. Highly recommend going!

Review 56 (2021-11-12 - Rating: 5)
Theres so many screens here you can sit anywhere and still have a view of anything they have on. Great for sports nights or to just chill out with some friends. The kitchen is open a bit later than the other bars in the area which is a bonus. I went during the NBA finals and still had great service. Love this place.

We hosted a family lunch last Friday. The day before the event, Cathy and Dermott arranged for our group to have several tables at the front for our group of 22 people. Kinga and Sorcia were our servers and they did a great job! Food and drinks were awesome...highly recommend this spot!

Really nice sports bar. Plenty of screens to view different games happening in real time. We went for March madness and we’re able to watch most of the big games. Managements a little aggressive especially with the 90 minute time limit on big game days.

Solid place. Your typical neighborhood Irish bar. Bartenders are damn solid and the food is way better than average. If youre looking for something fancy and pretentious? Its not this! Ha! But if youre a tourist and youre thinking, I want to see a local, neighborhood bar! (which I absolutely am when I travel!) this is a great spot! Stop in for sure.

Brunch is the move here. Only served on weekends. I dont even get the boozy brunch, which is offered, but enjoy their food (Irish sausage! Is good) in the summer they open up one of the walls, which is awesome with the breeze coming in. Sports bar as well, so they will have the most popular game on.
