I came here to celebrate my father's birthday. Upon arrival, we were greeted and there was plenty of seating for my party. All the main entrees on the menu were pretty expensive and did not strike me as very appetizing. Upon ordering, the food took forever (20-30 minutes) to arrive at my table, despite the business not looking very busy on a Saturday night. I ordered the Fish and Chips which I assumed was the safe option but turned out to be a mistake. The fish was extremely bland and I had to nearly force myself to finish once I exhausted the small portion of dipping sauce that accompanied the dish. The chips were decent. Overall I enjoyed the appetizer the most which was a deep-fried Macaroni and Cheese plate. To the restaurants credit, they did provide my father a complimentary dessert which he seemed to enjoy. Overall, my party did not enjoy the food or experience enough to be keen on returning for a 2nd time in the near future.

Tasty food (I love the Shepherd’s pie! But salad is just so so) Service is ok, good vibe in the restaurant. Can be a good choice for dinner.

Perfect British pub, food is well cooked and very close to the authentic British pub food. Pot pie, chicken kababs and chicken flat bread is to die for ! The fusion of Indian and Mediterranean taste symbolizes the classic London pub food. Great drinks, great menu items and ambience is also pretty good. Prices on the higher side though ! Worth a try for a nice dinner date !

Dining here was an absolute treat! The interior design was a perfect blend of modern elegance and rustic charm, with soft lighting that created a warm and intimate setting. Our server went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic experience, explaining the menu with enthusiasm and making thoughtful recommendations. The food was a masterpiece—fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and stunning presentation. The grilled salmon was cooked to perfection, served with a light citrus glaze that brought out its natural flavors. The cocktails were inventive and well-balanced, adding to the overall experience. It’s clear that the team here is dedicated to excellence, and I can’t wait to return!

English Pub with a tasty modern twist. Fish and chips were the best ever and the cheese board was nicely done. Shepard pie was good but I would pass on that next time. Service was OK but it was a super busy night with every table full. Staff doing their best to keep up. Drink menue was expansive.

No question about ambience. Sunnyvale downtown vibes. Service was great. Table setup is also perfect with views of the bustling street. Food is not so great for the price. Butter chicken tasted pretty bland and sweet. Not many options with cocktails as well.

Situated on the Murphy street, great vibes and atmosphere. Service was prompt and we had good fun with the group.

Overall great place. Food was all good too. Britain chicken tikka masala could be a little better.
