Customer Reviews
The food is freshly prepared and exceptionally delicious. Service was somewhat slow due to high customer volume. Our waiter was friendly, though other staff had limited interaction with us. The coffee was also freshly brewed. Early arrival is recommended, as the establishment fills quickly upon opening. I plan to return.
Quaint Cafe in downtown area. Good coffee and food. Seasonal menu offers decent selection of interesting options. Friendly staff, fast service, interesting setting.
I finally had the chance to visit “Cafe on the Abbey,” and it did not disappoint! This charming café has a unique and special atmosphere that makes it stand out. I absolutely loved the patio; it’s a perfect spot to enjoy a cup of coffee. The coffee itself was excellent—rich and flavorful. I didn’t try the food this time but noticed many sweet options. What makes it even better is that the café is part of a complex that includes a beautiful new hotel called “The Principal” and an amazing wedding venue, all right there. The staff was friendly, and I really enjoyed the welcoming vibe of the town. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend visiting!
Tried Bacon cheese and egg Croissants (IMO would have been better of bottoms were toasted) and a coffee flight. Flight was great you got to try 4 coffees at once.
This spot is truly a hidden gem. Coffee: I'm very picky when it comes to coffee and worked as a barista so I know good coffee, and their coffee is good. Lots of flavors/roasts to choose from and they update their drink menu every now and then with fun combinations. Food: Their food is presented well and tastes very good. Fresh fruits, fluffy waffles, etc. They also have a yummy pastry case and offer thanksgiving catering, holiday related gifts like chocolate easter bunnies for example, and more. Atmosphere: Located in a cute little town with fun shops to explore after you eat, the building itself is beautiful and you can eat outside on a cute patio when the weather is nice. Their logo is very cute as well. Service: Service is pretty good, they take care of your to go orders very though
