Reviews
Service was good and the portions were massive. I had the hippie hash with sausage and it was delicious. The inside was a bit run down but I guess that adds to the charm. It's good if you're in the area and hungry and it's convenient, but I wouldn't travel for it.
Really enjoyed my 1am breakfast experience at Abe's. I ordered the Southern Omelette and was very impressed. The gravy was tasty and had just enough pepper. The hash browns were served on the side. They were not bad. I prefer them to be a little more crispy but I am not going to complain. Very enjoyable coffee! The service was a fun experience. Staff was really outgoing and friendly. Overall, I would recommend Abe's and I look forward to trying more items on their menu.
great for what it is late night drunk food and a good hot breakfast very friendly staff. Gyros are usually only $2.99 and well worth it. Hippy Hash got to try it not for a weak stomach
Besides being the official Ypsilanti eatery, Abe's has a good hamburger and better breakfast, which of course you can order any time of the day. I like that it's open 24 hours, and that you find all types of people there at all times of the day. Neo-hippies, bikers, yuppies, great-grandparents, whatever. The decor is a little worn, so not a good place for a date. The last time I was there, I noticed that a lot of the seats are worn to the point that the somebody-sat-here depression is now permanent.
Been going here since my freshman year at EMU. Glenda took incredible care of us, and the food was great for the price. Try the Chicken Melt!!
