The FISH & CHIPS at This BRITISH PUB in Florida have been VOTED THE BEST in The ENTIRE USA! REALLY?

[@johnherbert2545]

Lee, the plate fillers your on the money with that!!! Basket for chips are another pet hate,fill the plate with food! We noticed in Sept 2022, that prices were insane, especially on IDrive. Also, decent of you to be honest about KZbin paying you, I appreciate your honesty on this front, and wish more KZbinrs would be more transparent regarding this. The family of 4 issue is definitely food for thought. Keep up the great work, loving this Orlando series mate!!

[@kykyhunt]

I actually think The Office worked so well because it didn't try to emulate the British one - it had its own identity and story lines and an American team who knew what their audiences would want combined with Gervais & Merchant helping out. Best of both worlds.

[@craign1668]

The Fish ate all the chips 😂😂 Brilliant.I knew the amount of chips would be mentioned as soon as I saw the plate.😂

Lee I am glad you went to The pub. I did say in my comment when you asked to nomionate a place to go and it got good reviews. You have to accept the prices are not UK prices but even here the price has gone through the roof. The fish & Chips looked very good for the USA and in appearence (looked as they should be). Glad you enjoyed the experience.

[@philcroxall6575]

Worth $20 no way ! If that was regular what did the Wee portion look like ? When you took the ketchup, tartare and coleslaw off the plate there was little left ! A total rip off, as you say a really hungry fish !! I do realize the prices in the USA as my son lives in Los Angeles, thankfully our food is far heathier and still much cheaper than American junk even though our food has gone up.

Morning Lee. I think you’re absolutely 100% spot on with your review if this video. It is really expensive if you go with a family of 4. And as I’ve said on your vlogs in the past, I absolutely hate service charges with a passion. They make me really angry to be honest. Im always happy to leave a tip if the service is great, but on my terms, not the establishments. If I ever went to the US I’d turn into Victor Meldrew whenever I’d see the bills🤣😂. I just don’t agree with them. As for the fish and chips, they looked pretty decent to be fair. I don’t like Tartare sauce or coleslaw but the fish and chips alone I think deserve the 8/10 you gave it. Looked really nice and definitely better than you had in your previous videos in New York. Thanks for sharing buddy👍👍

[@davidacres4981]

Love your comment and your honesty. Firstly, as an English guy living in America, I feel $20 is pretty steep! As you say, the chips are fairly sparse. The underneath of the fish looked a tad fatty. If ever you’re in Charleston, South Carolina anytime, look up The Cod Father - really good traditional fish and chips. The large is almost twice the size of the one you’re eating, plus they serve excellent mushy peas!

[@neilpowers6794]

Hi Lee, my comments are that I agree with you that the fish looked good, but I agree with your feedback and my rating would only be 7/10 though. A mark off for lack of chips, a mark off for lack of traditional mushy peas or curry sauce because coleslaw is not traditional with fish and chips. Then a another mark off for the price. I agree in the UK that in major cities, you have the optional gratuity charge, but I would never pay that at a standard fish & chip restaurant over here. Plus now with the poor exchange rate, the menu prices are looking higher than the UK, then you have the tax and tip on top.

[@Johndeplume.]

I completely agree with you in identifying what's wrong with the meal (and on the 'optional' gratuity charges pushed back home). I went 7.5 to 8, as I couldn't decide. I felt it's the best looking fish and chips he's had in the US (baring the since closed chippy he went to last year in Florida), I liked what they've tried to do with the place, and that there's quite a few British drinks choices (although, there could've been more). Decor looked decent, albeit not exactly 'traditional' British. Have a good day. 👍

[@martingadsby3934]

[@sdelliott]

100k subscribers....awesome achievement, Lee - well done!!

[@TheMacMaster]

[@Tidybitz]

I thought the pub looked great and somewhere I would visit, though they had TVs on the wall so maybe they show sport which would put me off a bit. I thought the fish and chips looked lovely albeit a fairly small portion with few chips when the condiments were removed. If this was the large option on the menu, the small option must be minute. It's a shame there were no peas, that would have bumped my score up a bit, but I sort of agree with your score. I think it went over the lady's head when you said the fish had eaten most of the chips. Ha! I do remember you visiting the British run chip shop in Florida last year and how good it was but it's a shame it's no longer there. Enjoyed the video. Oh and congtratulations on reaching 100,000 subs, well done.

[@MichaelHowells-tn8qx]

Congratulations on hitting 100k !!

[@Johndeplume.]

Funny you mentioned Inbetweeners, Lee, as that's exactly what I was thinking... and you said it as it came to my head. I cannot think of one show that's made the transition to America and been decent. I watched about 10 seconds of the Office USA, and as soon as I saw a fist-pump (or whatever they're called) and heard the word "cool" or "dude", I promptly switched it off, so never gave it the chance. Shameless, Inbetweeners, Fawlty Towers (called 'Payne' in the USA, and lasting 9 episodes), I just can't think of one that I've liked the US remake of - and found it irritating that they feel the need to remake it. I'm not generally a fan of U.S. series', but with that said, 'Better Call Saul' is probably the greatest US series I've ever seen (and 'The Sopranos'). Both are absolutely brilliant.

As an English guy who has lived in California for the last 20 years, its rare to find a really good Fish n Chips. I was brought up in London on Toff's, Seashells, Faulkner's so know what I'm talking about. By far the best in the US I have had is THE CODFATHER in Henderson, Las Vegas...owned by Glynn Bramall, of Sheffield. He's cooked for all the major rock stars on tour, but has now settled in NV, and I couldn't fault him (and I'm REALLY fussy!). Batter was brittle, haddock meat second to none, chips werer bang on correct.

Excellent review with a really good summary. First rate - tasty, small portion of fries, plate fillers, coleslaw (so American!) and very expensive. For a family with three kids (without the beer and even without the tip) that’s over 80 quid.

Thanks allot for your videos on US foods. Being from the Midwest US, I would not know the difference between British Chips and our various kinds of American Potatoes. Yes, French Fries are very greasy here in the US and I also try to stay away from them myself in my older years. Fish is Fish to me no matter how it is cooked. Haddock is one of my favorite types of fish and being grown up on the Mississippi River in Illinois, Catfish is another favorite of mine. I have had fish cooked all different ways as long as they are not smothered in grease. Note: In the US when we talk or ask about Chips with a meal, we usually think of very crunchy "hard thin Potato Chips" if asked for it in a normal everyday restaurant. I was surprised when you were back home and had Fish and chips, they look more like our French Fries and are an actual potato and not a hard thin crispy potato chip. Probably would never get to go overseas to Britian or Scotland now, but would love to try your Fish and Chips and actually see what you are talking about. In summary, I am like you, it is what we grew up on and what we are used to. Going to foreign countries is always an adventure on how foods are cooked and taste. Also being In the Air Force I got to try many of the foods in the Hawaii, Japan, Taiwan, Philippines, and Viet Nam and it was some very unique and some weird tasting foods. Do you have over in Britian, This is the best American food Restaurants????? Take care.

Saw one similar in Tenerife years ago that had 1 pump at each table, and it worked like a petrol pump, clocking up, then you paid for your spend at the end of your drinking session! They even had a glass swiller at each table! I wonder why they say grab the BASE of the handle though?! Cheese "Boll***s" haha love it! Don't love the price though for cheese bites lol! Aren't sliders meant to be small and cheap?!

Ok, I'll stop now lmao!!!! At least they have Strongbow 😉 By 'win the awards', were they judged without payment or gifts, as a LOT of awards in a LOT of types of industry are just basically bought 🫤 Well it looks 10x better than GR did, and it was the right order! Not sure about coleslaw though 🫤 For pub chips, they look excellent! Batter looks and sounds good, I'd say portioned well tbf. They are chips, but they aren't chippy chips! Can't hold that against them though as they are going for a pub style! I mean, not bad, especially for the USA version compared to others! The 'slaw' and ketchup...... odd, but overall with everything in, I'd go an 8.7/10 which is excellent for a recreation of a whole pub and food from the UK!!! Oh yeh, agree about skin on chips lol.
