The Abbott - not Monk's for this regular. Love it - great beer, good food, local feel. Usually busy, but i always get a table...i usually order the veggie chilly or the fish & chips...but the food is good across the board. I know people who are there multiple times a week..am deffinitely there a few times a month. Gastro / brew pub....good beer list...not as good as Comrad's but close. Have had a few misses for brunch and every so often the service upstairs is slow, but still my go to pub.
It is especially great in the winter months - dark and cozy with hearty food...and can be a great choice for intimate chats...
