Stopped here the night before our cruise to Hawaii. What a great place to eat. Excellent food and beer selection. After our 15 day cruise we thought the food here was just as good if not better than most meals on the ship. Next time we are in town this will be a must visit.

Some regulars but anybody can come and feel welcome. New bartender is great and really knows his beer. Pizza is made in a wood fired... More

My girlfriend and I meet twice a year to celebrate each other's birthdays. We often meet in Seal Beach. I wanted to try a new restaurant and used Trip Advisors for help in deciding where to go. The reviews for Abbey sold me and what a fabulous experience we had. We were greeted by Biz, our waitress. I joked with... More

Initially came here because I bought a Living Social or Groupon deal. Ever since then, I probably go a couple times a month. The staff are awesome, the food is delicious (especially the popular items marked with an asteriks on their menu), lots of beer on tap, and a relaxing place to hang out. Everyday they have different specials e.g.... More

Seal Beach's the Abbey Restaurant is in a modest location 3 blocks from the Pier. Having to compete on Main Street, where it seems like every other building houses a reataurant, this little gem holds its own, and more. the Abbey has great lunches, very good dinners and a terrific bar. You will find the servers willing to help you... More

The Abbey is now under new managementment and with their updated menu and lots of new selections, a good stop. One of the best is their hamburgers fire grilled and high enough to come with a steak knife. Pizzas, salads and changing beers on tap add to the ever growing popularity of this renewed restaurant making it a great choice... More
