Abigail’s Likes and Dislikes in Stardew Valley

Gift giving is a major part of romance in Stardew Valley. Giving the right gift can go a long way in building a relationship with Abigail, but she can be pretty particular with her likes and dislikes. Talking to Abigail every day and giving her as many gifts as you can per week is a quick way to speed run your friendship right into marriage. Below are all of Abigail’s known likes, dislikes, and hates:

Likes

  • Amethyst
  • Banana Pudding
  • Blackberry Cobbler
  • Chocolate Cake
  • Pufferfish
  • Pumpkins
  • Spicy Eel

Dislikes

  • Milk
  • Common Mushroom
  • Daffodils
  • Dandelions
  • Ginger
  • Hazelnut
  • Leek
  • Morel
  • Purple Mushroom
  • Snow Yam
  • Winter Root

Hates

  • Clay
  • Holly

Just as the right gift can earn friendship hearts with the character, gifting her a dislike or hated item can undo progress just as quickly.

Dating Abigail in Stardew Valley

After you accumulate enough friendship hearts with Abigail, you will start dating the NPC and need to make further correct choices if you want to marry the character. These are specific scenes that will occasionally exist outside of Abigail’s normal routine. Below are all the cutscenes you’ll need to clear, as well as the dialog options that will give you the best relationship standing:

Hearts RequiredWhereBest Dialog Choice
Two HeartsGeneral Store on any day besides SundayNo dialog here
Four HeartsMountain lake between 12pm and 7pm (Not during Winter)“Enjoying the weather.”
Six HeartsIn town between 9pm and 12am“Yeah and it’s exciting!” or “Yes, but only in self-defense.”
Eight HeartsAfter Abigail sends you a letter, visit her in her home between 8pm and 10pmNo dialog here.
10 HeartsMines between 5pm and 12amFirst prompt: “Are you okay?”
Second prompt: “I get scared too.”

After you accumulate 10 hearts with Abigail and complete her final section in the mine, then you’ll be able to marry her. You can get the Mermaid Pendant required to marry Abigail from the Old Mariner NPC, who only appears on rainy days on the beach. For 5,000 gold, you an bring the Mermaid Pendant to Abigail and marry your bride-to-be in town square the day after.
