This review is strictly for ordering takeout from Danns. My family eats here pretty regularly and we have enjoyed dining in on multiple occasions. The staff is friendly and prompt and the place is always clean. Its a nice family atmosphere and a great place to grab a cold beer. The bartenders are fast and friendly. The problem I have and the reason behind my "2 star" rating is strictly when ordering takeout. It is like the back of the house has no pride in the food they are serving their customers because the odds of it coming back is next to never. My first order was missing an important part of the equation. I ordered a chicken caesar salad only to come home and find there was no caesar in the salad and stale croutons. So I had a delicously dry salad for dinner that night. I will say when I called to make them aware I was asked if I would like to come back and pick up some dressing. It was pooring down rain that night so that was a "thanks but no thanks". I asked for a credit and when the manager came to the phone he asked what I wanted to do, I again asked for a credit. An apology would have gone a long way but to be fair he did give the credit. A few days later I ordered a BBQ burger to go and I get home only to find a ridiculous amount of BBQ sauce smothered in the burger and drenched all over my fries. I had to eat the burger less the buns because they were so sopped and soggy. Today we order the credited salad, wings and a steak and cheese. The steak amd cheese was delicious but the wings were soggy and overly breaded. The ranch dressing was watered down and gross. It is a shame because we were planning on having Danns cater a party for our son. That is definitely not going to happen with this kind of track record. In short if you want to enjoy Danns then you should dine in. Takeout is unfortnately a big thumbs down! *The kids working the takeout are great,this is strictly pertaining to the quality (or lack there of) of the food and kitchen.

Three strikes and DAnns is out. First two times dining here, the food was mediocre but passable. The third time, the food was just plain awful. Ordered the fried haddock sandwich and couldnt eat it--the fish was so old it crumbled, was mealy, and smelled of ammonia. Might have had a good law suit on my hands if Id eaten enough and gotten sick. Other dish ordered was fried chicken supreme--crap chicken paillards that looked like they came out of a freezer bag accompanied by a "supreme" sauce that was nothing more than cornstarch thickened chicken broth. Obviously, this is a restaurant that you go to if you were born on the wrong side of the tracks in Abington and your idea of a good meal is nachos.

This was my 2nd chance for them. Stale chips with buff chicken dip told waitress she didnt even apologize. Asked for extra cheese on sandwich charged for it didnt get it. Sandwich fell apart had to eat with fork and knife. My last visit was over 6 months ago and I got terrible service that visit. maybe they were upset with me for coming in 1/2 before the closed. They were too focused on closing cleaning up and going home I had to ask for drink and plate for my appetizer. I still tipped 20% both visits shouldnt have but Im not like that. I will never return though much better places to spend my hard earned money on food in the area.

Stopped for lunch on a Monday - busy but not crowded. Place was clean & well set up. The service was very good. Menu had good variety and some bargain daily specials. I had the fish & chips (onion Rings), wife had the reuben. Good but not spectacular. Problem was the handicap parking, the worst I have ever encountered. Use the diagonal parking on the buildings left driveway - it is 3/4 of the way closer to the front door! A 2 star discount

Was pretty lack luster food ,cleanliness, pail compaired to old Town Cafe. Ham was dry and burned tons of pan oil on the plate Raisin toast was burned and black surprised that you let it go out of the kitchen like that . The only saving grace was the pancakes were perfect. Needless to say I wont be a repeat customer here. For Breakfast

Always a good experience here. I typically go to the bar side, either the bar itself of a booth. The staff is friendly and actively engaged with customers. The food is always delishious, burgers are great and the other sandwiches are tastey. Their portions are solid for the money, especially if you get something labeled "outrageous".

The waitresses are lovely, but thats about it. Overcooked burger (you seriously have to pay for lettuce, tomato and onion) with a stale, untoasted bun. Just bland, weird, badly cooked food in a dark, dingy restaurant. Ive heard the breakfast is good, but the lunch was so disappointing that I doubt well be back.

The food I have noticed is better quality and the new salads fantastic the fish is fresh. The only thing I do not like and will never order are the veggies and mashed as the veggies are frozen (yuck) and mashed instant fresh French fries are cheaper and taste so much better than frozen as well as any veggie.

I love Danns its a great place to go to just relax, you can have a pizza you can have a couple beers or if you have a family you could bring kids and you can sit down have a family dinner its a great place to go on any occasion, really great local dining or drinking establishment.

This restaurant is an all time favorite for years with family and friends. It serves primarily comfort food rather than gourmet. Also its a sports themed restaurant where you can watch the Pats or Sox! I recommend the country fried chicken dish on the menu. Great pizzas too!

cheap isnt always good. this food is decent, but if decent cheap food is what you are looking for, stop here. dishes are ok, dont expect a fantastic culinary experience. expect a family resto with a predictable menu which can feed a family for a reasonable amount of money.

Food quality has gone way down. Not sure how they are "Abingtons best". They used to be much better, but over the past year quality has suffered significantly. Chicken Wings tasted like fish the last time we went.
