Went to ABBA bottomless brunch. Bit disappointed. Food was amazing, however drinks served were cheap and poor value, especially for money you pay. Also music was way too loud. Couldn't have a conversation with friends at same table.

We made a booking and upon arrival were told that they closed their booking system a month ago. As I'm writing this email this has still not changed.

It did not seem like a place to serve food! There was little attention given by the servers, we had to walk to the bar and ask for everything and they were extremely busy. There was also a DJ deck right beside us so it was incredibly noisy, and I waited about 45 minutes for one chicken burger. I asked for a gin and tonic as well, and it was like a drink you'd receive in a rural Irish bar that doesn't really do spirits. The place seems fine to have a few drinks, but the dining experience leaves room to be improved!

Menu Very limited and served on plastic trays with flimsy paper. Fries were cold. Toilets stank and it was only 5pm. The Kentucky burger was good and Staff were nice though. Wouldn't be rushing back for food but would call again for a drink.

The food is served on a tray, on top of a sheet of paper. The paper obviously rips when the metal cutlery provided is used to cut the chicken. I found it rather odd that when I requested a plate, I was given another black tray with paper on it. When I asked for a normal plate, I was told they did not have any, which I found a bit bizarre. Overall, it was an enjoyable experience, but the paper and the trays did put me off.

The food and staff were lovely. The different than normal items on a burger place menu was great and all the flavour's were fantastic. We will definitely be back! If there’s anything at all to fault it was the staff were not aware of the booking, but quickly fixed that & the lighting was very dim, not being able to see the stuff in front of us dim. But the cocktails were unreal, we really enjoyed ourselves. There was super loud music upstairs, possibly a party of some sorts? We weren’t expecting that. The food, staff and overall experience was great though. We have recommended our friends and family to Crack Jenny’s since.

Food was delicious, the ramen poutine fries in particular 👌 Service was good & the place looks great. Crowd was a bit mixed between parties and patrons of the bar that was there before, was glad that we booked a table! Will definitely be going back.

Service was awful, more then 30minutes waiting for some drinks to arrive in the same round. Dips for mains never arrived after asking multiple times, some mains never arrived at all, zero organisation or management. Some mains arrived 30 minutes after the others. The food was alright. Waitress was rude and English was very poor. When we asked for the bill to leave she stormed off.

Only went for drinks as we went quite late in the night and they were not serving food this late which is fine. Staff were extremely friendly and cocktails were lovely and well made! Atmosphere was quite relaxed and we felt very comfortable. Will be back!
