The environment is pleasantly decorated with festive trinkets and really cool light-up trees. The food is good quality. I ordered the cod, the portion size matched the price. Lastly, the spinach and artichoke dip was the best I ever had (usually I’m not a fan). The leftovers didn’t last long! Will visit again.

Went here on 11/13/22 @9pm.
Love this place. Will be back. They have very reasonable prices and we just wanted to grab a late night snack. We had the loaded potato soup and some appetizers. All very good. Perfect valence of bacon, Cher Amy soup, lots of potato’s. I forgot to take pics of the food which means I need to come back and get some food and take pics and update my review
Staff is very professional and hard working. Inside is clean. Love the look and feel of this place. Bartender took our order right away, food was out in 5 minutes which is good, considering it was pretty full.
Located next to St No wet College si u get college folk in there but demographically lotta young and old there.
For apps, breaded mushrooms and sweet potato fries!!! Yum! . Apps along with the soup, all hot and fresh. On a cold night it really hit the spot.
I am thinking when the pack play this Thea night I may have to just drop in to check out some of the game but order something small- and yes- take some pics-
They have pizza on the menu and I saw one come up- it looked really good!
All good food- hot and fresh and I ate way too much. Good company with my friend. Took in a play at St Norbert, not too loud so we didn’t have to yell over the crowd or a band. Just a cool place u just never will find anywhere else but in De Pere WI . If u like the sweet potato fries, if all u do is stop in for a quick beverage- get the sweet potato fries.
Lots of neat stuff on the walls.
Pool table off to the side. Plenty of seating at the bar or tables.
Great place. Highly recommends. I didn’t do a review last year. I had these burger sliders- they were amazing, and they were on special.
So yes- they do drink specials and also food specials.
Until the next review Steve-O, out
Ps
Cool place. 10 stars outtta 10. I saw some negative reviews and I saw people having fun and laughing and talking. Some guys in the back shooting pool. I don’t know what ppl’s problems are. Business are all short handed. Especially local ones. They can’t compete for wages with a big box place. And that brings me to another point, don’t be cheap. U go out- TIP. They rely on it. They only get 3.50 in the state of WI to a stress or serve. And maybe they don’t have a car to get some place so they walk from the college to serve- give back. If u can’t tip, shame on u. Some get 3 beverages and two appetizers, cut back on the food or drinks. Ppl are having tuff times with rising costs and just getting by.
My kids both serves thru college. Eating in a table of 6 for 3 hours and they get 3 bucks. Wow.. Take a pill. Come back again and then give a honest review. U put a negative review out there it hurts the people that own is as u complain about a straw that fell on the floor.
Great vibe- get out and support local. U can go to Chi. HI’s any day of the week or TX roadhouse. This is way better.

Was there for a late dinner Saturday night. Busy, but given the current atmosphere of struggling business, had no problem waiting. We ordered a pizza, which we received ice cold, cheese wasn't even melted. We had to send it back. Although the waitress offered make us another, by that point it was just too late. No dinner for us. I guess I just wished they would have taken a drink off of our bar tab or something as an "I'm sorry", but they did not offer. Everyone was friendly enough, but would not be compelled to return.

Great perch fry! My wife's shrimp tacos were excellent.Our server was fantastic. She was very accommodating and helpful. Wish I could I remember her name, unusual but she was young and blonde.
The atmosphere was cool and reminded me of a college bar which being next to St. Norbert's, I sure it is at times.
Wife and I are glad we went there.

My wife and I had plans to check out the Abbey for dinner, because we were staying at the hotel next door. But I read some of the reviews for this place and to be honest we became apprehensive. We thought we are here, why not check it out anyways.
First, if you were looking for a 5 star restaurant on a beer budget to satisfy you and want to review it as such, this is not your place. This is your nostalgic type tavern that serves food. TVs and pictures surround you. The tables reflecting the use of the good old days before franchised sports bars dotted the landscape.This is a great place to have an experience and enjoy the company of the person or people you are with. The folks serving us were nice, the food and the beer was good. My wife had chicken wings and I had a burger and fries. We received what we expected. It wasn't less than what we expected. I don't think this place advertises itself to put your expectations on the moon.
My wife and I are excellent cooks and we could probably make complaints about something anywhere we go across a huge range of ethnic/variety food types. But we both thought we could not really rate this place because it's unique and it is what it says it is. Contrary to some of the bad reviews, these are the kind places we are surprised by and enjoy running across. We like taking notice of the people and seeing the neat things about it, instead of seeing the things we can run down. There are not a lot of places like this type still around. They are becoming a part of history. I love the name of the place, the simple tavern food menu, and I believe it's second generation family owned. I am glad I was able to share this with my wife who did not grow up in this country. They don't promise you magic and there is no magic out there anyways.
Probably an odd long review but wanted to take the time to let the owner know we appreciated the experience. I am sure keeping a place like this going in this day and age is not easy and it is good to encourage one another when it's due. Thank you!
P.S. if you are wondering if you should check this place out we did too, but we were happy we did.
