Great for summer sun downers
Abbey Wharf has a fantastic terrace overlooking the harbour. Food is pretty good too. Be warned that it can get very lively! Hosts bands, DJ nights and norther soul.
Abbey Wharf
Market PlaceHighly recommend by past guests. Great beers brewed on the premises and a fab view of the abbey. It’s a hike up the 199 steps though!
