Perfect spot. Man behind the bar so welcoming and helpful. Knowing it?s owned by my family Nepal put cherry on the top. Beautiful family business. Love my momo ( dumpling ) and so much more. Thank you will be back again and again !

The new chefs food in the Abbey is by far the best I've had for a long time. As someone who trys new curry houses and curry pubs food and service is fantastic. The bar lady val is a great host fantastic service. Great food, great service . Best food around ?

Went with the in-laws and kids . Every one of us cleared out plates including the fussy 8 year old. My son had the lamb chops . 3 fat chops which he said were amazing ! The nee owner is also the chef and they only took over in august. His food is amazing and he comes out to make sure you are happy with it. Not the most glamorous of places but food is worth it

Attended to watch the boxing. Lots of screens for all to see, access to other rooms. Good spaces. Large outside area. Had the mixed grill to share, with a peshwari naan, this naan was by far the best I have tasted, so fresh. Definitely eat here again!

In my third decade of living in the area I have only visited the Abbey on Thimblemill Road 3 or 4 times. Now under new management by a very talented, experienced, welcoming and charming Chef, it is on my radar as a place to visit when eating out in Bearwood/Warley. My friend and I were treated to two delicious courses yesterday - one a kebab-style lamb dish. Chef clearly loves his profession and, I would say, also loves the hospitality business. If there is one reason to visit The Abbey, for me, it would have to be the food. This is no fast-food chain Pubco enterprise. It is to be a family-run business dedicated to the delivery of both good service and the enjoyable experience of its clients It is early days for the business under new management and I hope the excellence in the kitchen is matched by making the extensive 'beer garden', huge bar, cloak rooms etc mare comfortable and welcoming. The establishment has huge potential as a functions space, music venue in addition to being a restaurant/grill & bar. I wish Chef and his family the best of luck in his new venture.

I visited here last night as it's over the road from me as I noticed this week they started doing food. I couldn't be bothered cooking myself so decided to have a treat. I must say I was not disappointed. I ordered a chilli paneer starter a keema curry, keema rice and a garlic and cheese naan. The price was reasonable and the taste was out of this world and even better they did it as a takeaway option for me so I could enjoy a couple of pints whilst I waited and and enjoy the meal at home. I normally drink in the Bear when I go out but I'll definitely be giving the Abbey more attention if not just for the beer but for the fantastic food. Thank you to all the guys there for making my evening.

Brilliant friendly pub. A lovely Jamaican lady showed us around, she was so lovely. Shane all pubs don?t have a customer friendly lady like her.

We had a wonderful welcome to Bearwood from Val the barmaid! She was so cheerful and happy and gave us a really warm welcome on our first evening in the area. Thank you!
