The team behind the Abbey has done an amazing job renovating this old funeral home into a beautiful restaurant full of intimate nooks where you and your friends can gather for a beer, coffee, or dinner. They also have the best patio in Lawrenceville, perfect for summer nights.
While the bar has a broad selections of beers and cocktails the food menu is strange and lacking in options. The menu is weighted heavy towards appetizers and small plates while leaving your entre selections limited to 2 burgers or 3 heavy/creamy pastas. I couldn't tell if they are going for a tapas style situation here or what the reason is for such a limited menu. I'd love to see another sandwich option or two and something like a chicken/pork chop/fish entre, especially during the summer months...I'm not looking for buttery pasta when its 80+ outside.
I'll definitely be back and hopefully they expand the menu and take advantage of this beautiful space.
