I never considered this place, even though I walked through this multiple times. But this one is a really nice place for friday hangout.
They have decent vegetarian options. Although the Burger bun does contain egg. The serving size is decent but the sides make it really filling.
The french fries that we ordered was also quite tasty.
But the thing that really made the difference to me was the service. It was really amazing. I am usually the person who doesn't leave much tip (for a reason I don't want to explain here), but this place I definitely felt they deserved it.
The waiter when he realized that I am a pure vegetarian, he not only profusely refused, he also asked if I would like to change the order. When I told him that I was ok, he then got a plate of Peta Bread and Hummus on his own. Just so that I don't go hungry. I've never had such a great consideration. I don't remember the name of the staff, but if management is reading this, please consider giving him a raise.
Overall, the ambiance is quite nice and overall an enjoyable experience!

Amazing. Great food all around. Loved the freshly made shepherd's pie and mashy peas. The Oxford mule was also very delicious as was the banana chocolouffe. I couldn't get a picture before I ate because it smelled so good. Service was also great. This food was made from scratch and there were several orders before us so it took time, but it was well worth the wait. I look forward to returning.

Came here on Friday night for dinner. We had outdoor seating right next to the historic Murphy Ave arch. The lamb kabob with pilaf rice dish that I ordered had a nice presentation; however, after seeing an old photo of the same dish uploaded by another customer, it used to be served with 5 halves of the kabab instead of just 4 halves, and instead of tomatoes and red onion garnish on the plate, it used to be served with a side salad with leafy greens. That and another dish of the salad with a few pieces of avocado and red quinoa sprinkled on top tasted okay. My friend drank only half of the skinny margarita that she ordered, which was a bit on the strong side. The server gave us the dinner menu towards the end of our meal to consider ordering desserts, but I was unimpressed with the two listed dessert items and asked for the check instead as I was trying hard to avoid eye contact the entire time with the homeless guy who sat on a bench near the restaurant with his shopping cart.

A great value add to Downtown Sunnyvale.
Great patio dining and wonderful ambience. Superb beers and cocktails. Menu had a great balance of vegetarian, vegan and meat lovers dishes. I had the veggie burger that had great patty and very crispy fries. They call it the Spicy Veggie burger but it was not spicy at all and it was blunt. So, it suits anyone. It went well with a glass of old fashioned. The service is exceptional. They kept checking on us and kept us hydrated with their splendid drinks. Restroom was clean and maintained.

We ordered two cocktail drinks that were so-so. Nothing special. The cheese plate came so late and again nothing special about it. Reminds me of grocery cheeses. Not sure why we had to wait 30 minutes or so for it to arrive. The great Britain paneer masala is again mediocre. For $22 I expect more! Could have gotten it for $12 at other Indian food places. The vegetable pot pie was meh! We would have wanted to get the spicy veggie burger but the patty has eggs and they couldn't make it vegan. Thanks for the experience but not coming back again.

This place has a great atmosphere and the servers are great. I got the fish and chips and thought they were okay. I’ve definitely had better fish and chips. Still recommend trying.
I don’t drink but my friend who comes here often has had their cocktails and thoroughly enjoys them. If I did drink this would probably be a 5 star review!

Wonderful English-styled restaurant located in downtown Sunnyvale offering a variety of snacks, drinks, alcoholic beverages, and meals, in a comfortable setting. Highlights are the food which is pretty unique and the happy hour menu and prices. Can be busy at times with limited staffing.
[The Food]
We were impressed with the menu items they offered here. We ordered a chicken pot pie and a TriTip sandwich, but they have all sorts of things from Jamaican Curried Goat, Chicken Tikka Masala, Salads, and other really unique items that seemed to have an English twist to them. Definitely worth coming for the food.
[The Setting]
This is one of the first restaurants you'll see on the Murphy Ave strip. They have a nice bar table which faces outward to the street, as well as plenty of outdoor seating and indoor seating. I really liked all the artwork and thought they put into the theme of the restaurant. It was really clean and well kept.
[The Service]
The service was great here. The wait was a bit much for the time but I understand many places are understaffed right now. The food and setting made it worth it, just had to drink an extra beer while waiting! All the servers were really friendly and super fast when it came to asking us if we needed anything, etc.
Definitely recommended!

First time eating here tonight, and very pleased that my team suggested that we eat here. Being from England they thought that I might like it.
Well I did, we were very well taken care of and the gentleman who took care of us was very knowledgeable and informative. The food was outstanding and it was great to find Old Speckled Hen on draft. I'll be back soon.
