Info

Located in an excellent spot along the ever popular Minories, Abbey has positioned itself in the heart of The City. Easy to spot thanks to the large glass frontage, the exterior - although sizeable in itself - belies the enormity of what awaits inside. Walking through the doors you’re met with the main upstairs space – a decent sized area with a large bar to the right, set up in such a way so as to reduce the bar wait. With standing room only, it’s perfect for mingling. Seating is cleverly divided up into sections, with names like ‘The Den’ or ‘The Pad’ allowing for groups to secret themselves away whilst still feeling a part of all the action.

Wandering downstairs you’re met with an enormous space with another bar, which is always guaranteed to be heaving, and more cleverly sectioned off seating areas including one on the stairway. There’s also an interesting conservatory-style space with pine beams below a glass ceiling, allowing light to stream in across diners and drinkers seated here.

However, it’s the decor that really makes Abbey. Eclectic and interesting, it’s hard to sum up in any one way what the theme of this place is. Expect to see mismatched chairs and tables in various colours, patterns, materials and styles. The lighting is especially beautiful, ranging from unique modern lights in the shape of uniform orange cylinders to chandeliers, various hanging white shell lampshades and even a disco ball thrown in for good measure.
