Great food, especially the steaks. Friendly service. Good wine list. Good bar area, with different beers. This pub has been around for years! It hasn't changed much, it certainly has not gone off! It is very consistent . More

We went to The British with high hopes having read the great reviews. The restaurent itself is out the back of what is a nice looking pub - restaurent has plastic garden type windows on a shed - not good! It was less than half full yet the maitre de was very stressed, barely able to greet us. After confirming... More
