12-16, Abbeygate, Abbey Walk, Grimsby DN31 1JY, United Kingdom
Theatrical lilac-hued bistro and bar with British and global dining, plus monthly wine tasting menu.
We had another great Christmas lunch at Abbys Wine Bar last week, food was all really good, service great and nothing was too much trouble - thank you so much again. I have been coming here for years and both the food and service are consistently good!!
Lovely place, atmosphere, love eating here the staff are very attentive, pleasant and very obliging and friendly. Definitely recommend 100%. Menu is varied and impossible not to find something to enjoy. Always a pleasure to visit x
Whilst all the other shops were closed or empty, Abbys was busy! Tucked away in Abbygate we stumbled across this place and was NOT disappointed. Highly recommend this place. Food was great. They don't scrimp on the fillings on their sandwiches. There are three tables outside for dogs.
Couldn’t find a fault! Excellent! 4 girls on a catch up 5.30 tea. Attentive waitress, brought water without having to be asked. 2 for 1 menu, excellent choice.Great price and not inflated because of the offer. Hot, tasty, 2 had moussaka which they said was excellent, I had fab ribs, meaty, not fatty, hot and tasty too. Thai fish cakes, portion of 3, great. Definitely recommend and definitely be back!
Food was extremely good!!! The staff are really friendly and attentive. We had the brie for starter was exceptionally yummy 😋 definitely will visit again
Up in Grimsby visiting family and popped in today, what a great little gaff with top dollar food on offer. Loved it 👊
Callum/Larissa were extremely attentive for our anniversary meal. I surprised my partner and told Callum he could go all out, we were surprised with balloons, confetti and an anniversary prosecco! The food was absolutely gorgeous and all the staff went the extra mile to make our evening special. We'd 100000% return, thank you for everything ❤️
Hidden gem in Grimsby, recommend to us and very appreciated. Delicious Eggs Royale for brunch, tasty mushroom on toast also. Nice coffee before back into town. Only thing missing is some cake (rather than dessert) but otherwise very pleasant. Staff friendly and helpful. Returned for a delicious lamb shank for lunch, also very tasty.
Really nice food and service, particularly the lovely waitress Sophie she went above and beyond to satisfy our needs.
A consistently good experience every time you visit. Good food, good service, cheerful staff.
Lovely place to eat very friendly staff.
Had a lovely lunch with my daughter, we were a walk in and no problem getting a table, have been using abbies for many years and the quality of the food is delicious and reasonable priced.
Decidedly underwhelming unfortunately. Bacon a bit tough, sausage flavourless but really good coffee. Noisy barista.
Had a great time with a family meal
Great place. Lovely atmosphere and food was great. Me and my girlfriend went two weeks ago. Special mention to Sophie who made us feel so welcome; she was an absolute delight.
Lovely food
Weve eaten at Abbys a couple of times now - once for a tapas evening and once for a relaxed breakfast. The food was fantastic on both visits and the service / product knowledge from staff was excellent - couple that with great value and whats not to love? Will definitely be visiting again in the future.
We came here for date night during the Christmas. The staff were lovely and the food was exceptional. Definitely one of the best in town. Highly recommend & we will be back!
Winter warmer special 2 for 1, I had Thai Fishcakes, very nice, dont think I needed the chips on the side though.
Really great gluten free menu at a good price.
Great food, polite staff, good service, tables a little too close together
A lovely bistro, warm and welcoming, I would highly recommend the lamb shank
Nice lunch, had philly steak sandwich. My only criticism would be the steak was to over cooked for my liking.
Service was very slow but it was Christmas No Diane sauce for my meal so I said I d have peppercorn thinking it would come in a small jug, it didn t it was smothered over my meal , not nice. Fish and chips were amazing Christmas pudding so small I thought it would blow away
Hubby took me for my birthday it was absolutely delicious I definitely recommend
Quick and efficient service. Very nice food
The staff were incredibly friendly, full of smiles and advice. The decor is pretty cosy, with a splash of elegance. I had the ribs, which was fall off the bone tender and quite tasty. Highly recommend the place.
Great food and at a good price. Fast and friendly service.
Usually, the food is of a very good standard. Sadly, on our last visit, the food was not the usual portion or quality. The desert was missing the sides with no explanation or apology. The staff were obviously struggling with the number of customers, so clearly they were stressed. I will continue to visit and hope it was just temporary. However, I hope the next experience is better.
Went here with friends for an evening meal. It was fantastic! There was a lovely, friendly atmosphere. The surroundings were cosy and clean. The staff were great. We had a bit of fun with one of the waitresses. And the food was the best weve had in a very long time. Totally delicious! We would definitely recommend Abbeys and we shall definitely be returning!
Great meals and staff are great
This is a great restaurant run by a great team of people. Great food and drink. Also has a brilliant function room for events. Highly recommended - go visit 5/5.
Go here lots. Food and service are always excellent......
Took a long time to get our hot and cold drinks also waited for our breakfast a long while wont be going back We were the first people in there Food
called in for lunch and found the food to be delicious and the staff were all very friendly. Will certainly visit again. Well done to all.
Visited Abby s 11 August for our wedding anniversary 48 years staff was not informed but we where treated with respect very attentive, Sophie went above and beyond to make me a cocktail that was not on there menu it was delicious, food was lovely presented very nice will definitely return and recommend.

Had a lovely meal with friends. Good service and atmosphere. Friendly staff. A very enjoyable Christmas meal.
Went last night for our work xmas do.table booked for 5.30 but 3 of us met earlier for a drink beforehand.although the restaurant was set up for partys the waiter had a table we could sit at until we were ready to move to our allocated table. All the 3 male waiters were lovely and friendly(never got their names),the food was beautiful,and the place is warm,cosy and very festive.thank you so much.x
Went for Christmas Lunch as part of a group, which can often mean a less than great experience. Not in this case, food was way better than expected, well presented, very good staff. Will definitely be back soon.
Decided to book for a lunchtime Christmas meal with my wife. Ordered the turkey Christmas meal with Christmas pudding. The whole atmosphere, food and service was excellent. Will call again. We recommend the restaurant for a pleasant atmosphere and meal.

I wasnt there. I walked past the place, which looked nice. Hence the 3 stars.
Food good staff amazing will be going again soon x
Just got back from there after having lunch with friends. We are regulars there and today was the first time to be very disappointed!! Two of us had a lovely meal but our friend had to send the food back as it was all stone cold. We were told they would do her a replacement from scratch but the chicken had obviously been reheated and was so dry she couldnt eat it. So we left with one of us not having had any lunch. We werent charged for her meal but thats not the point. We are at the curious cat next week so are hoping to have a better experience!
Enjoyed lunch. A glass of fizz and a tasty snack for 2. After looking through the menu were looking forward to dinner in the near future.
Amazing place, hubby loved the food the service was great to. Also tried the drinks it was mocktails for me which were amazing and cocktails for the hubby who again thoroughly enjoyed them! Highly recommend checking this please out if your ever in the area!
Lovely friendly place. Food was beautiful and very good service and very nice staff.
Great menu and hospitality. The waitresses were very attentive and freindly. A really nice experience and night out.
The chef cooked the wrong meal for me and my mum. We then received our correct meal. When we subsequently went to pay they only charged us for the chips and the drinks. Perfect service! Would highly recommend both the food and the service from the polite staff.
Just had our wedding here and it was perfect from start to finish Callum couldnt do enough for us The staff were brilliant friend extremely funny and was good to have a some light hearted banta at times throughout our day!! The food was absolutely gorgeous everything was perfect from start to finish Would highly recommend to anyone and everyone If your looking for a wedding venue please look no further and just chose here you wont regret it trust me!!!! Will definitely be calling back for our meals out from on Such a hidden gem Thank you from from Mr and mrs Lawson
First visit was for a special wine pairing evening. We asked for edits to menu to support dietary requirements and nothing was too much trouble. Faultless service. Delicious food. Booked the next one. Recommend.
The best place to eat in Grimsby, forget the rest and try the best
Lovely place, and the food was very nice The only reason I gave it a 4 was because my chicken wad quite dry
Went for family meal for my sons birthday, the food was delicious, some had 3 courses others 2,everyone really happy,staff polite and helpful as always we booked again for December
Thank you so much to Liz, Callum and their amazing team at Abby s for hosting our daughter and future son in laws engagement party. As always a fabulous 5 star service.
Lovely setting, food and staff. Will be visiting again soon.
Ordered from the set menu but this was charged at full price. I found the chicken to be tough and sent it back to the kitchen. A discount was applied to the price of the meal but it worked out to be roughly equal to the price I would have paid if the meal had been priced correctly in the first place. The fish pie was missing the prawns. I was disappointed at the quality of the food, given the price!
Food and service is fantastic here. I had the deep fried brie for a starter, small fish and chips and mulled Eton mess for dessert and it was all good to perfection and tasted yummy. I will definitely be going back xx
Lovely friendly place with lovely food
One of the best places to eat in the area and the staff are great.
Dont drink
Best Bistro in town
Had birthday party there 20/05/2021 bit quiet , food and drinks superb very friendly staff.
Love this place
Food was delicious and looked great, staff were very friendly and got everything we needed. Atmosphere was lovely
Always lovely food & great atmosphere in abbys Great to see you Callum xx
Attended the wedding of Sharon and Steve Gladwell here, the service and staff were absolutely fantastic, they are a credit to you, nothing was to much for our needs, highly recommended, cant wait to go there again soon
The menu has CHANGED. Please look at updated online reviews since the 3rd August 2021. If you want a burger (yes they now have burgers) go to McD at a 10th of the cost. Chips were soggy and uncooked. The tartin pastry was uncooked My wives lobster was excellent but not the place or reputation it had. The staff was excellent but sad to say will never go back unless the food improves.
Had fish and chips with mushy peas , the fish was superb , the chips , I,v had better looked like they had been under a heat lamp for half an hour , the mushy peas served in a small pot hardly enough for two mouthfuls, come on guys , its mushy peas not caviar, serve a decent portion .got served a hot sponge pudding with a soup spoon , when I asked for a sweet spoon the waitress said they didnt have any , I ended up being given a tea spoon , come on guys, I,m not being unreasonable am I, such a shame as its a lovely place , but feel the staff may need some more training .
Lovely atmosphere in Covid safe environment. Great food and service
First visit to abbys and wont be the last the camanbert sharer was really good, my husband had the burger which was cooked to perfection. I had the pie of the day and the meat in it was melt in the mouth. Highly recommend as the service is fantastic as well
Chicken was raw, pink and slime white tint, i had belly ache after, dont recommend
Not been to Abbys for years and was pleasantly surprised at the change in decor as it used to be a bit dark but now it is light and cheery. Food is just as good and staff are polite. They have plastic screening to section off each seating area so I felt really comfortable and not crowded. Toilets available.
Very professional and happy staff. Well set up.
Unimaginative menu. Dark interior.
Amazing meal enjoyed my all, food and mocktails delicious, service brilliant we will be returning

Excellent meal at Abbys this New Years Eve
I highy recommended Abbys. The atmosphere is friendly and cosy. I arranged an evening meal for a party of 27 people. There is a good choice of food to cater for all tastes. The food was exquisite and the service was exemplary. All the food was brought out at the same time and all of the guests were impressed with the food and Abbys in general.
We had a very nice light lunch. Reasonably priced good quality. Very nice friendly atmosphere
Hearty food, good food.
Polite and efficient staff, food was lovely and not too costly
Wonderful
Fabulous food and great prices. Our waiter, Callum, was more than helpful. Very personable and professional young man.

Lovely staff, cosy atmosphere and very tasty meals, however the chips were the worst weve ever had Im afraid.
Very nice Tapas, felt safe with friendly staff
Always friendly staff and good quality food
Spare ribs were exceptional.
Had a steak & a dessert brilliant, steak 11 out of 10 ace.
Always enjoy going to Abbys. Staff very courteous, atmosphere great and food excellent quality. Hubby always enjoys the fish and chips but the steaks are always cooked to perfection and my regular go to when dining here.
Very good coffee
I had the tapas 6 dishes for £26 and it was lovely and you get plenty it easy feeds two people. The tapas is the best in town. Other people in our group ordered of the normal menu and they all said the food was lovely. The serves was brillant and the food came really quick we had a really good night cant wait to go back.
Friendly welcoming team. Warm, comfortable, stylish surroundings. Delicious food. Recommended
