Abilene, Brooklyn, New York, American Restaurant Details

Food:

A decent bar, but a bit below the high bar set for the neighborhood with such great craft beer lists. Here, the selection doesn't go much beyond staples like Guiness and Hoegaarden with a few more interesting seasonal beers on tap as well. Still, the immense unique lists at other nearby bars puts this in perspective. The tables outside are dog friendly and they have games for kids and adults. Service was fine but a bit slow and the glasses from the previous diners were never cleared. Not bad for a quick drink while waiting for a table at a nearby restaurant.

Food:

This is just a good old fashion bar. They have good beers on tap and friendly bartenders. A cool eclectic style that seems as if it was furnished by Brownstone Treasures/Yesterday's News (and it probably was). The crowd is a great mix of the neighborhoods and is not a place you feel like you need to work hard to fit in. They also have WiFi and pretty decent bar food.

Food:

Decent beer and a good amount of taps. The kolsch is alright and the IPA is good.

Food:

I haven't had the food here, but the drinks are good and I give extra points to any bar that offers board games. Abilene is a cute spot that has more personality than a typical neighborhood bar. It's kitchy without being over-the-top.

Food:

It's a great bar. The food sucks. Great in every other respect.
