Just went for my birthday, not impressed.. waited 40 min for food wich still ended up being cold, 1 out of 5 meals was actually hot... I had the burger an poutine, burger was alright, would of been better hot, gravy was freezing an tasted a few weeks old... we bearly saw our waitress, music was so loud you could hear the manager scream talking with I'm assuming friends of hers (if you habe to scream at your visitors... turn down the music....) then we had a party of like 15 behind us with half of that being screaming kids that acted as if it was a chucky cheese... the place looks like it's got promise... but not good for family dining...

I was there with a work function for lunch. The staff were very friendly. The service was good. I'm personally not fond of the "micro brewery in an old building" atmosphere.

The atmosphere was nice and our server was great. The beer was also great. The food was a pretty big disappointment though. We got a very wilted salad that looked like it had been sitting pre made in the fridge. We got crab dip that was fine but the chips were stale, the fried chicken sandwich was good though. Overall I feel like this place could do with a food overhaul and I think there would be more return customers. I’d also say the restaurant was kind of slow in service but I wasn’t in a rush so I didn’t care much about that. Overall I’d love to see the food improve to make the experience better.

Ordered a Bowl. Surprised at how small it was, albeit tasty. Cocktail was good. The place wasn't very busy but clearly needed more servers. Server was nice but was run off his feet.

Went to Abe erb yesterday with friends. We all got drinks and some apps. One of the advertised drinks on the menu were Vodka Friday seltzers, priced at $4.60. A couple of us ordered some, and didn’t realize until after we paid that we were charged for a Willibald seltzer instead, priced at $9.50. When we pointed this out to our server, she said it was because that the $4.60 is the price of the can out of their beer fridge, but if you order one in the restaurant it’s marked up to $9.50. This made no sense, as the Vodka Fridays weren’t even in the beer fridge for purchase. They are clearly priced at $4.60 on the drink menu. None of us even ordered the Willibald seltzers, they are a completely separate product. It was incredibly frustrating, our server basically told us that’s just the way it is. Obviously the increased price on the drink serves to up the total for the taxes and the tip on the bill. We paid an extra $10 on our bill for a drink we didn’t even order, as my boyfriend and I had 2 on our bill. Pretty poor service, this was clearly not the correct product but they refused to adjust our bills. Very unfortunate experience.
