"The Abbey is an appropriate place to go on long, melodramatic tirades about what Miami rent prices looked like in 2013. Even though you can’t smoke inside anymore (don’t even get you started on that), it’s the kind of dark, divey drinking establishment South Beach used to be full of. You can’t recapture the past, but you can squeeze into a comically small booth with a beer and your bitterness. Fun fact, the Abbey turns 30 in 2025. Soon you’ll have that in common, too." - ryan pfeffer
