The unexpected closure of Abbey Tavern, a popular sports bar in Murray Hill, left the neighborhood quieter, as it was a favorite spot for local sports fans.
A manager at Abbey Tavern confirmed that the bar's owners could not reach an agreement on rent with KSR, the landlord that owns various properties in Manhattan.
One devastated customer expressed dismay at the closure, stating, 'Our home TV is like one-third the size of the ones here,' emphasizing the bar's appeal.
Abbey Tavern first opened in 1963 and was known for its large-screen TVs, but faced challenges over the years, previously operating as Vertigo and Manhattan Brewhouse.
