If you are looking for a great burger then I highly recommend Abbey Road Tavern & Grilled. The burgers are big, messy, and delicious. We went on a Thursday night and not only was the burger and beer great, but so was the service!

It may not be the greatest decorated place in the world, but the burgers are so good. The service is incredible, and the waitress are really nice. It is a great for the family and kids, I recommended it for everyone.

I've only been here for burgers, but it is delicious. I'm not going to lie, I'm not a Beatles fan. I don't really care for all the Beatles decorations or anything. I'm there purely for the burgers. They are giant and juicy. I asked for a mix of the burgers and they didn't charge extra for it. The waitress was really nice and courteous. I had a good time and I was definitely full off of burger and fries.

Start with the location, it was designed as a gas station, but never used as one.
Head inside to an uncharming and unimpressive bar area, down the hall to the unimpressive and uncharming back area. So if you are from out of town, don't bother going here. Only a local could love this place. And I'm one who doesn't.

Okay, so you hold out hope because people have told you that the food is great. I ordered a buffalo chicken sandwich, a rather easy dish. But I noticed the bun was absolutely not fresh made, rather quite stale, out of the bag for a few days. The only thing you can say is that they gave a huge portion, it actually was enough chicken for 2 sandwiches.

I'm not normally given to complaining about places, but I noticed that my friends recommendations seemed out of place with what I experienced and then strangely I was seeing these only accolades.

In the Cary area we have for a good burger: 5 Guys, Char-grill (the un-service burger place), Red Robin, Chili's, and many other restaurants with charming, weird, or standard dining areas. So Abbey Road has really nothing going for it except the inflated reviews which have already been spreading a false impression. Don't waste your money here. Let those who love it keep it in business.
