Wnet downtown for lunch with a friend and we didnt want to end the good time so we yelped something in the area and up popped Abbey Pub. It was said to be the oldest and best pub in Fort Worth so that sealed the deal. Its a large venue with tons of seating and a nice long bar. The bartender quickly welcomed us and made us feel at home. We both ordered a nice porter and it came in a nice cold glass. We enjoyed a nice visit in a comfortable relaxed pub. We will be back!! Add it to the Love List read more

With a name like the Abbey, I came here expecting to find Trappist ale on tap or at least in a bottle. Naw, its just a name, a lame bar for the lame. I settled for Devils backbone, from Blanco. A decent tripple but hell, I can get that literally anywhere. Change your name or get some authentic beer true to your name. read more

Amazing bartenders, shout to Red for being so sweet and attentive! Very much your Pub vibe. The type of place regulars stay and come back since they know each other by name. read more

New favorite hangout spot. Great neighborhood. Love the mixed crowd. Drinks are adorable. Staff is very knowledgeable and nice. Los Guapos taco spot is right next door and you can order some authentic Mexican food from the bar and they deliver it to you, that's pretty neat and convenient. read more

Great sports bar. Friendly staff. BBQ next door that you can order from a window in the bar. I was in town for a concert and wanted to wart the KC Chiefs Sunday game. The bartender not only put the game on but left the volume on my game. read more

Went here for the first time over the weekend with a few friends and could not believe how rude the staff was. We asked the person checking IDs upon arrival if we could push two tables together to accommodate our party of 6 and he was incredibly rude and told us not to touch his tables and was shining a flash light all over the place. He then pushed two tables together for us and we received no service from a waiter and eventually had to go to the bar to order drinks. The same guy was working the bar and the rudeness continued. After one round of drinks, we had enough and decided to leave. My husband thought he lost his credit card so we asked the same guy who checked our IDs to look behind the bar to see if it was still with the receipt he signed. He refused to check and told us that was our problem, but luckily we found it on our own. There was zero reason for the staff to be completely rude for no reason. I will not be back and will not recommend. read more

Some of the most successful nightclubs in Dallas back in the 90's were, in fact, the same night club. Every year or two, as the crowds began to dwindle, they would shut it down, slap some new paint and decor on it, change the name, and reopen it. Same owners, same staff, same DJ, same location, but the crowds came back. Because in the end, they were all looking for that "new" place in town. Even if it really wasn't new. So it is with The Shamrock, which appears to have slapped some faux-tudor decor on the outside, and changed the name. The interior is the same, the bartender is the same, but the crowds have descended. So if you liked Shamrock, you will like Abbey...unless what you liked about it was its laid-back vibe, which has since been swapped for frat-friendly. read more

This place has one of the best happy hours on 7th. They have $3 wells and $2.75 domestic drafts. It's a pretty large bar area with a lot to do. There's dart boards, pool tables and some games. The people are super nice and I always get great service. read more

The Abbey is my go to pub. It is home to the Fort Worth chapter of the American outlaws. The United States men's national team fans gather here to watch the game and drink together. They have a pool table and darts if watching the game isn't your thing. It can get a little Smokey at times but often it's a relaxed environment with decently priced drinks. It's right next to velvet taco and an awesome Greek restaurant right off of 7th st. read more

Abbey Pub - Pubs Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

My first visit was on St. Patty's Day. The exterior does not do the interior justice. It's clean and actually somewhat cozy. Major bonus points: the restroom was very clean. Now for the reason I only gave it 2 stars: the service. Initially it was fine, but trying to get another round of drinks was nearly impossible. That's not good at all when we were sitting at the bar and it wasn't that busy. Apparently, you have to be a regular to get adequate service. I sat there with an empty drink glass and empty water glass for a good 10 mins. and when I tried to make eye contact with the female bartender with the mohawk, I was completely ignored. I must reiterate: sitting at the bar with two empty glasses in front of me. She acknowledged others and just ignored my attempts to get her attention. It is due to her disregard for us that we will NOT be able to return. I'm disappointed as I just recently moved back to the area from Dallas and was hoping to find a new pub. I already miss the Dallas pubs. read more

I've reviewed this place under the old name "Shamrocks." This place is a great bar, lots of space, decent jukebox, lots of TV and I love love love the addition of the shuffle board (they need 2 of them.) Always have decent drink deals and is located in the perfect location to start your bar hopping night. Bartenders are decent dudes (one seems to have an attitude but you still get service.) Ask for Chris (he always has his hat on backwards) he will take care of you. read more

I was actually next door about to order & got a call. It wasn't good news, so I opted to run in for a quick quiet drink. I think I expected frat boys and grime but was met with an earnestly clean bar,yet clearly testosterone driven, shiny and appealing with even a friendly vibe. I didn't want friendly, just a cocktail. Dude at bar recommended a craft beer and left me in peace. I noted 3 men behind the bar. I looked around, standard pool tables and golden tee but shuffleboard, darts and more. Lotsa tvs all playing sports. After discussing what I liked about 1st beer,he recommended my second beer. He asked great questions about my preferences and I enjoyed it. Better than the first even! Unfortunately both had high alcohol content and I have no clue what they were. read more

This place does get smokey- but they open the doors on both ends to air out the place so it makes is bearable. The beer selection is good here, serving craft beers and standard beers. Service is quick and friendly. It's a great neighborhood bar - you'll see a lot of the same faces here. There are pool tables and darts, lots of seating, and food trucks around the bar to enjoy. read more

Cool spot to go chill & have a drink. I'm a California guy in town for the weekend & the bartenders made us feel like regulars. Dusty even helped us get around town. Great place read more

Bar tender ignored us for 5+ minutes every time I got a drink (3 times) when it it wasn't busy even after tipping her well on each tab this past Thursday afternoon. She was extremely rude to my friends and I the entire time. We finally left after seeing her take 3+ shots with her friends while waiting to order more drinks. Additionally, we saw her get into verbal arguments with at least 2 customers while we were there and she even pushed one girl. Can't believe this bar stays afloat with employees like that and that the cops weren't called on her. read more

WARNING: This place will throw you out if you look the least bit intoxicated. My friend stumbled a bit in her heels (she doesn't wear them often) and they threw her out. Ruined our night. She hadn't talked to anyone; we had literally just come inside. She went to the restroom and as she sat down, the bouncer told us we had to leave. One of the worst experiences I've ever had at a place of business. Don't come here if you have been drinking anywhere else, I guess? Not recommended. read more

One of the best pubs in the metroplex. I live in Dallas but grew up in Ft Worth. I have been around many spots in the metroplex and this is one of the most consistent pubs to get a good strong drink besides Rick O'Sheas downtown. I don't go to meat markets and I absolutely refuse to go to the racist Library downtown. On more than one occasion, I was told my clothing was too baggy but I just left from work where I dress conservatively business casual. TCU hipster/frat jackasses can come in looking practically homeless but I can't get in? DWB. Drinking While Black. I will not discuss that crap bar any further. As with any local mom/pop like this, just take the time and ask the bartenders their name. Any local pub place is like that if you want better service such as The Grotto, Boiled Owl, or Lola's. Waving money, fingers, yelling hey, or whatever puts you at the back of the Que.. I make it a point to know a bartenders name on the first drink or tip solid so they know I am someone to keep watch on. Bar Basics 101. Smoke leaves much to be desired here but I hope FTW joins the other Texas cities in the smoking ban. Just ask for Dusty and he will sort you out proper! Fantastic Spot... read more

If you need a chill place to have a drink after a long day of work, come by and say hi to Francis! Also a great place to catch the game or play beer pong [on a machine lol]. read more

Went here a few months ago with 3 friends. I am from the UK, so as ID I only had my UK driving licence. Apparently this is not sufficient, as the only thing they would accept was an ID card or a US driving licence..... so it looks like they're saying if you're from out of town then forget it!! Even though I am 35 years old and had 3 friends with texas ID's as well! The bouncers were very unfriendly and downright rude. Do not go here and expect any hospitality or welcome. read more

this bar is pretty cool. they have darts, pool, curling thing lol and i liked the bartenders, they were cool hooked everyone up and the prices were acceptable and it was kept clean, and theyd join in on some drinks. pretty chill place, one set back is its a small place so it can be kinda smokey. okay really smokey. read more

This place is awesome. As someone in the service industry these guys are great the owner jimmy his wife and done and staff were amazing. I would highly recommend this location. Great demographic in age no problems and a great place to chill and have a drink. read more

Me and my friends couldn't spend our hard earned money ($500+) because we had hats that said "West Is The Best". The bartender told us to take them off or leave. read more

I got served a flat beer. I addressed it with the bartender, I believe her name was Francine? She didn't seem to care and I still got charged for it. I really had a shit day and didn't want to argue, and my dumbass still tipped. But I'll make damn sure me and my friends will never come back here. If the owner reads this, Get your shit together. read more

Went for a World Cup game. Packed shoulder to shoulder with sweaty beer fans! It was fun. Beer was good and great place for a good crowd. Service was good for the busy night. Parking is hard to find and I wished they could have helped the crowd by better organization of the tables and chairs. I mean who sits at a World Cup match?' read more

We went to this bar tonight to drink beer and have a good time. Refused service by rude management because we were told our politics were not welcome there. Avoid this place. read more

Awesome night bartenders! Horrible happy hour bartender. We will definitely be back.. After 9.

They have a long bar that will seat a lot of people. We went here for happy hour, to play pool & darts. We had a good time. The darts were still tipped with 2 dart boards & 1 pool table. Not real good ventilation & a lot of smokers while we were their. Bartender was nice, quick & helpful. Prices were EXCELLENT for happy hour. Would go back again for sure to Party and hangout. read more

Good people. Good brew. Good music. This is the place we often end up coming to for our post-test wind down. I love it for a few reasons. First, they have great prices on their drinks. There are few places in FW that I can go to without spending a bunch of money on dranks. Second, the bartenders are nice. They are fast at noticing that you need a drink and faster in getting it to you! Third, you can just walk out the back door to one of my two favorite taco trucks; those being Tacoheads and The Chile Pepper Grill. Both are great! They play good music here also. Be warned it is a smoking bar and parking can be a little difficult because there are some parking lots around that seem good but they will tow your vehicle (Montgomery plaza comes to mind). Don't be fooled by its outside diver bar appearance. Inside is nice and clean! Check it out! read more

This is a well respected bar by the locals. They serve drinks, not food so grab your friends and a pizza and watch the game, sit and chat, play some darts! Ive met some really cool people here, which is a nice break from some bars that attract weirdos. The owner is really nice, and it is easy to see he cares about his bar and customers. They constantly bring in new beers, which is nice because I like to try new things, the idea of a bar that never varies makes me sick. The staff is cool, they don't mess around and id everyone. I actually love that, because the bars on berry are drowning in 19 year olds which is weird. read more

Refused service despite multiple attempts to brab about the bar and its adequate staff wrost nogt ever and abby's failed to deliver ehat a shock. read more

Stopped in on a friday afternoon for a beer. Place looked good and was not very busy. After about 10 minutes bartender came over to serve the owner? who then told the bartender to serve me. Ordered a Guinness and waited. Bartender filled the glass half full, left it at the tap and went to the other end of the bar and got on her phone. Still wanting a beer had no choice but to leave and go somewhere else to satisfy my thirst. still scratching my head at the odd behavior of the owner and staff in this place. read more

I went to Abbey on a Thursday night at around 730. Great dark and woody atmosphere. The bartenders were very personable and attentive. Many people were regulars. They were very friendly and great conversation. The noise level was low. More like a true pub. A decent amount of taps (Goose island IPA, 4 Rahr taps, Guinness, Smithwicks, a cider, Bud Light, Mich Ultra, Coors light, Miller Lite), and a couple of craft brews in bottles (most of the bottles are light beers). Prices were reasonable. Overall a good place to have a quiet drink. read more

I like Abbey Pub a lot! Cheap drinks and fun atmosphere - they have a shuffleboard and darts. There's enough room to move around without it feeling like you're in a warehouse. The one con is that it's somewhat smokey. I like it because it is quieter than some of the other bigger bars on 7th street, which can get way too loud. When you're on a bar-crawl with a group, Abbey is definitely one that we tend to pick as a final destination. read more

Great place to hang out and grab a drink with friends! The owner is super friendly, and the bartenders are awesome. Definitely check this place out! read more

This place has really gone down hill since it changed owners. It use to be called "Shamrock" and it was a nice place to go meet friends and have a nice evening out. However, it's become sort of sleezy and I really don't feel safe in there anymore. I don't think the new owners are in touch with it's customers. read more

Favorite bar on 7th . Pool tables, tvs and games , can bring your own food , cold beer good drinks . Great place to seriously chill with your friends extremely laid back with none of that annoying tcu student drama . Love the staff and owners! read more
