One of my favorites! Been here many times the past few years. This review is overdue. I am Never disappointed when I come. Although, it can get packed here, it's worth the wait. Excellent place to grab delicious entrees, snacks, brew and spirits. Food here is so delicious, and the selection of drinks is amazing. My favorites are the brats, schnitzels, beignets, and the martini espresso! Their seasonal menus are great too. My S/O loved the hot totty, and the burgers.

Love The Back Abbey! It’s always got some of the coolest beers to enjoy. It can sometimes get pretty packed up in here, but it’s worth the wait. This is probably the best spot for beers in the area.

An old haunt that still delivers; this place has charm, great food, and delicious drinks. Walkable distance from the parking garage nearby. Lovely little gem that hits the spot!

This must be the best beer place in Claremont! Very extensive list of outstanding beers (many Belgium), both on draft and in bottles. Food very good as well. I was surprised to find such good beers outside of Portland. I’ll be back!

We were there Saturday 1pm. We sat in patio in hot summer day. The patio is very nice with nice breeze. Food was excellent with brunch menu. Everyone likes the food and good service.

2 people... We had a few high quality beers on tap from Belgium. Every beer comes with its named glass. Food is excellent and drinks are some of the best I had at a gastropub. If anyone loves Belgian and German beers check this place out. It's the only place I found on the West Coast with a large selection of Trappist ales so far. Btw all fried food is fried in duck fat; NO SEED OILS HERE (HEALTHY)!

The hidden gem of the Claremont Village. The most excellent beer selection, great food and wonderful atmosphere. Staff is really friendly and helpful as well as knowledgeable about what they serve. Food quality is excellent and worth the price. There is street parking and a multilevel parking structure nearby. The dining area is dim and cool feel and the patio is nice.

Great portions for a good price. Food tastes great. They do have a bar but the food was so good I would come back just for that a hundred time over.

Lots of greats drinks and food! They have German and Belgian imported beers, my friends think it's worth the drive from LA to get them. The duck fat fries are really amazing, the dipping sauces are on another level, so good. Service was awesome. The servers were very kind and food/drinks came out very quick.

I had the pleasure of dining at The Back Abbey and I must say, it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The first thing I noticed was the cleanliness and tidiness of the establishment. It’s clear that the staff takes pride in maintaining a spotless environment, which is always a great first impression. Speaking of the staff, they were exceptionally nice and attentive throughout my visit. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly and felt genuinely welcomed. The service was prompt, and they made sure to check in regularly without being intrusive. Now, let’s talk about the burgers – they are nothing short of phenomenal. Each bite was a delightful explosion of flavors, perfectly cooked and seasoned. The quality of the ingredients was evident, and the variety of options ensured we had choices. The drinks were equally impressive, complementing the meal perfectly with a great selection to choose from. Overall, my experience at The Back Abbey was fantastic. The combination of a clean and inviting atmosphere, excellent service, and top-notch food makes this a place I’ll definitely be returning to. Highly recommended for any burger lover!

Found this restaurant driving through from Las Vegas. The breakfast Abbey burger was quality flavor and great flavor. Not a fan of brioche buns but it was still good. This waffle and chicken sandwich though, wow. That one was absolutely amazing. Came with a hot honey syrup that added a perfect amount of sweetness. The duck fat fries were also a perfect crispness and flavor, the different dipping sauces were also great.

Just went in for a few drinks. They have happy hour all day Monday and Tuesday. Had the fried pickles, which was great. I had the lemoncello spritzer. Very tasty and refreshing. See also had the lavender fog which was VERY good as well. I wasn't to go back to actually eat and try more of their specialty drinks

Only 4 stars because of the service. Our server was very nice and helpful. Answered all of our questions and gave pretty good recommendations. I had a whiskey sour and I thought it was incredible. I'm not a whiskey drinker but I really enjoyed their whiskey sour. My friend had their Spencer IPA. Which was really good. You can taste the hops but not in a bitter way. As for food, we ordered the Crab Cakes as an appetizer. They're were really delicious and had a great balance of flavors. My friend had they're burger. Which was really good and I had the Steak Frittes (medium rare). My entree wasn't the best it was okay. They definitely overcooked the steak and was very under seasoned. I definitely would not recommend the steak and fries.

Always a charmer. The Burgers are fantastic. and the beers are well chosen. This is a very nice gastropub that offers a nice selection of very delicious meals at non crazy prices. The beers are clearly for those who might want to try and expand their belgian repertoire. Its always a treat and the the desserts are worth coming back for.

Taste :4.2/5 Environment: 4.3/5 Service:4.2/5 Stay pretty crowed over the weekend. Indoor seats are limited First come first reserve ! I like the vibe on the weekend . Live music bring the awesome vibe if you choose to sit outside . It’s a bit chilly at the night .bring a jacket is optional. Recommend Cheese board Beef sandwich and back Abby burger

Came here for a second dinner/late night kinda vibe and it was great! A fun german vibe, live music.... fun german beers, great frites, and beignets. I'd honestly just come back and hang out just to have more frites and a beer. It can get a little busy but they have outdoor seating as well if you just bring a jacket. Food: 8/10 Atmosphere: 9/10 Service: 7/10 Value: 7/10

Great burgers, nice fries, and prices were about right. Had the lamb burger and the alley burger - both great! I wish I could come up here a couple more time to try the rest of their burgers. That being said, these burgers could be an easily 10/10 if they filled them more with thicker meat and/or toppings. It felt like the burgers were missing a bit to match the circumference vibe they gave. Maybe im just overthinking lol

The Fish was a 6 out of 10, but the Burger is definitely a Hard 8, I was happy that the Server gave us a better batch in the fries. The 1st round was stale and cold. The Servers were very attentive after waving them down. They seem to crowd together and Chit Chat, I get it, but I just don't do when Customers are in plain sight

We waited for more than half an hour for our lunch, not acceptable. The kitchen is small but the wait was too long. The food was average - greasy. The tables were sticky and the floors were greasy. The aircon inside wasn't cool enough, better to a it outside. Oh and sitting outside usnt nixe cause the building next door has it's laundry vent spewing out hot air directly onto diners.

Review is for brunch only. Hospitality was friendly however a couple of drinks were forgotten and went long stretches without seeing our server. French toast was very dense and sweet. Small portion but tough to finish. Avocado toast was very sad, unseasoned and came with one half raw- half roasted tomato see photo. Best thing we had were the potatoes. Deep fried and battered deliciousness. Eggs were cooked perfectly, but everything was unseasoned. Not under seasoned, but literally not a bit of salt on the eggs or avocado. Worst thing we ordered were the biscuits. They were so dense to the point of we wondered if they were still raw dough in the middle. Didn’t work as part of the benny. The biscuit side also was supposed to come with lingonberry jam but instead came with syrup. Especially at this high price I wouldn’t return.
