I have eaten in dozens of restaurants over the years that span the rainbow of ethnicities. I have had great Vietnamese, Korean, Indian, Somalian, Ethiopian, Cambodian, French and Irish etc. food in restaurants dedicated exclusively to that type of food.
However, I have never seen an English restaurant anywhere in the United States. Jokes aside about English cuisine, are there any restaurants dedicated to English cuisine anywhere in the U.S. I know you can get fish and chips in some bars and restaurants but that isn’t what I am talking about. Are there any English restaraunts equivalent to say a French Bistro. I have been to a couple of great Irish restaurants in Boston but I don’t think there are any English ones.
The best food in England is Indian - and there are plenty of those in the US
Seriously, I saw an English “cafe” in California. They had all the expected stuff - fried breakfast, roast beef/Yorkshire pud, fish ‘n’ chips. They’ve now closed down
Ethilrist, there’s also Brit’s Pub on Nicollet Mall in Minneapolis. I’ve never eaten there–I’ve only heard of the place because they used to sponsor the British comedies shown on channel 2.
In addition to Sherlock’s Home, there is Brit’s Pub in the Twin Cities. Which - last time I checked - did have a sit down restaurant as well as the pub.
Yes, there are a few. Some years ago, I was taken to one on a date with a rather wacked-out Anglophile (who was convinced his family were a secret relatives of the royals who had been deported to America for political reasons … OK, a REALLY wacked-out Anglophile).
IIRC, I had a decent salmon steak and a really outstanding pint of ale. Can’t remember much about the other food on offer (I was too busy trying to make my date stop reciting Monty Python scripts in an obviously fake accent), although I’d guess roast beef and fish and chips were staples.
