All ways a pleasure to visit the Abar. Although a tad expensive I keep going back. The young staff serving the excellent food are friendly and genuinely interested in you having a great evening out. I recommend the burgers and Mermaid gin.

I don't liked atmosphere. There are just pensioners. Just old people. It is like you have a lunch in retired home. But they looked like they enjoying food so maybe it was just me.
