Called for lunch we ordered duck salad which they no longer had so changed to fish cake sald. No salad at all just 2 very dry fish cakes . The bottle of wine was just plonked on the table in a cooler. I capable of opening & pouring wine myself but at £ 40 for a very average bottle iexpected it t to be poured for me. We had a change of staff and the waitress came over to see if we would like anything else ,asked to see the desert menu & opted for the cheese board,to be told after 15 minutes that they didn't have it . As there was nothing else we wanted the waitress said quite abruptly she get the bill & we were ushered out very quickly. There were no other people eating . 10% service charge on the bill. I would have asked for it to be removed but my friend is nicer than me.

Very friendly, courteous, polite and professional staff.
Only came for drinks but such a chill atmosphere. It?s an oasis in a busy part of the city.

Popped into Brasserie Abode recently and was met with really friendly and attentive staff ? definitely a highlight of the visit. The food is of a solid standard, nicely presented and enjoyable, though not particularly memorable.
The main drawback is the atmosphere. It just feels a bit flat ? no background music, and the décor is starting to feel a little tired. With a light refurb and some well-chosen music, this place could be a real gem. It has the bones of a great spot, it just needs a bit of love to bring it to life.
Would return, but more for the service than the setting (for now).

Really poor experience, place was empty for breakfast around 11am, took ages for food to be served. Ordered sour dough and croissants to be served regular bread and then told no croissants left. Will not return

Waiter was fantastic. Attentive and professional. Everything else was dreadful. The dishes were not as described on the Menu. Dry and tasteless. Ingredients missing. Wednesday 1pm and the place was empty, except for us. Very poor.

Popped in just for drinks. Slow service and inattentive staff. Shame because the place looks very nice.

Great cocktails, nicely presented.
Enjoyed the meat sharing platter & the Manchester tart with coconut ice cream was delicious!
Friendly & attentive service in a relaxed setting.

I spent some time working remotely here needed somewhere last minute. The peppermint tea was delicious. Truffle chips yummy. Service is great. Although on one occasion I explained how I wanted my tea twice and it still came out wrong.
Love the booths and decor.

Drunk woman singing loudly, waited over an for food then told it would not be coming as the chef had messed up the order. Total disaster.

Would have been an okay stay at the abode were it not for our experience at the restaurant for breakfast - some of our party never received their food, or when we did it was stone cold, all within the space of an hour.

Really disappointing visit. We were told on entry they were short staffed, but an hour's wait for our food seemed too long. We weren't told half the menu wasn't on. Even burgers! The food we had was fine but the wait and disappointment over lack of choice rather spoilt the whole experience.

Very helpful and attentive staff.
Flexible food offering, they were happy to adapt to needs.
