I ordered the fish and chips (haddock fried fish and fries with brown gravy sauce). The breading was superb, and the texture for the fish was simply phenomenal. The fries were also fantabulous. The ambiance was pretty chill. The server was friendly. This is definitely my go-to spot for fish and chips. read more

I'm not sure exactly what happened to, but we had always had decent meals at Archie's. This review was for a meal we had a few months ago. After a brief hiatus we decided to head back in for a Friday lunch. One waiter running the whole show. Bar, restaurant area, everything. He was also answering the phones and handling take out. We both ordered fish and chips. Their specialty. This tool 45 minutes. People who sat after were all being served before us. When we finally stopped the waiter / bartender / host to ask where our food was, he said it was given to another table by accident and that the cook was remaking it. When it finally showed up, it was mediocre. The fish was a humongous filet and impossible to eat. Couldn't pick it up. Couldn't cut it cause it just fell apart. It ended up just being a huge pile of mush in our baskets. We've decided to not visit again. Maybe we will change our minds down the road, but for now, it's out of the rotation again. read more

Lovely atmosphere and delicious food here! The restroom was very clean. They just give you the freshest food at this place! I do think it's expensive but I know I can't make these things for myself, so I will pay that money. It's not a date night spot , but definitely nice to just grab a bite together! Or with your sister or your mom on an errand day! Fast service and kind personalities, which is so nice especially these days, to find! And again it's not a fancy place but it's very nice. Four Stars. read more

So glad we found this gem! I searched on Yelp as I usually do for a highly rated restaurant- we really wanted good fish and chips. Fish and chips were fantastic- I had haddock and my husband had cod. Also tried the fried mushrooms and wings- both delicious. For dessert we all shared a sticky toffee pudding- it was to die for!!! Highly recommend this place! read more

Excellent food and way beyond awesome service. The food is plentiful and delicious. Love this place!

Good simple food that tasted great, the samosa's were really good and just like we had in South Africa

The fish and chips were very good, service was great overall was enjoyable, it is small but clean would come back.

Great food, large portions and superb service! Been there many times. Fish & Chips are the best

I can't tell you if this is the real deal or not because I've never been to the UK but what I can tell you is that this place is simply delicious The staff was awesome. This was my first visit so I had to try the fish and chips. Fries were exactly the way I like them, fresh out of the fryer. Fish was crispy and perfect (choice of haddock or cod). Will definitely be back. read more

If you are in the Melbourne area and want to try a really good British restaurant you must go ti Archie's. It's a small restaurant next to a Dunkin Doughnts. Shepard's Pie was delicious and the fish and chips were done to perfection. Now dessert, OMG, they have a pudding that is to die for .I will definitely be coming back. Give them a try you won't be disappointed. read more

Wonderful place! I haven't had my craving for fish and chips met since trying to get some at a Cuban place (ya, don't do that) and I had high expectations going into this place. We were welcomed by the friendly owner, Paul, a very friendly staff, and some Beatles music. The restaurant is named after his dog, Archie, whose portrait hangs on the wall next to the bar. You know this is a good place if the owner is playing Beatles music and honors his dog like this! Anyway, the food- my high expectations for authentic fish n chips were exceeded. The fish was light, flaky, and beer-battered. The chips were proper British chips- similar to US steak fries but not quite, and carrying that something special in their uniquely flat shape. Served with tarter sauce and cole slaw. Will be returning with enough appetite to sample their infamous Scotch Eggs! read more

Delicious food and super friendly staff! We sat at the bar, but they have tables and an outside patio. I also recommend the Boddingtons pub ale. It's a blonde version of the traditional Guinness. read more

Food is very good and a lot of different options. Highly irritated and not going to come back. If customers waiting are going to be put as priority I was asked to leave so that they could be seated. I was having a conversation and was done eating/paid but that's ridiculous read more

This is one of those easy to miss places, in a corner of a strip mall like area. We went for a late lunch on a Saturday. A few tables used inside and a large group outside. This is not a large place, so I imagine it gets packs in the evenings. I'd give the food a 5 and the rest a 3/4. Server was ok, but not the friendliest, someone abrupt but everyone has a bad day. Food, however, is excellent! I went for the fish and chips, which I had heard about. It did not disappoint. Flakey and not too much fry oil, just perfect. "Chips" were standard fries, nothing special. My friend had the bangers and mash, and its a toss up to which is better! Just a fun sort of meal. They were out of a few beers, so unless you wanted a Guinness, all that was left was the usual bar beers. I would certainly go back for the food, if not the ambiance. read more

Archies is ran by a British gentleman who is very interactive with his customers. I have had many good conversations with him while eating fish and chips. He offers 2 types of fish. Haddock and North Atlantic Cod. Both fish are delicious and are about as close as you can get to the "real" british fish & chips you will find on this side of the pond. All offerings at Archies are excellent. The only shortcomings is that the building is small and has limited seating, although he does have outside dinning too. Highly recommended! read more

We went last night. Sat outside. Been before always good. Our server Scotty definitely wasn't on point. We sat down another two people than sat down a few minutes after us, they had a different server. Their food came out before ours. We had to ask their server for two beverages we requested that our server never brought. Shepherds pie was more potatoes than meat, never was like that. I have fish , greasy. Bad dinner won't return. read more

Best Fish & Chips in Brevard. Several UK beers on tap. Smaller place that can get busy at times, but the wait is worth it.

Would be better if they had actually remodeled in UK neighborhood pub decor. And yet the food and beer is authentic. Really enjoyed our food and British ale. read more

Since I love to eat fish, I've been wanting to try this place out for quite sometime, especially after hearing about the hype on how good their fish is. Well I finally did so today and I left somewhat disappointed. It wasn't all bad though. My wife actually really liked her Shepherd's pie. My biggest issues were the service, it was terribly slow and the fact the batter for the fish and the fried mushrooms seemed overly greasy to my liking. The steak fries were just ok. The side of coleslaw was the highlight for me, quite good, however it was just a small portion. If you're into British fare, this is probably worth a try and just maybe I caught them on a bad day? read more

Wife and I go for a pint. It is our first visit. Wife loves the music and, although the bartender is probably ready for anything other than the usual tracks, he keeps the tunes rolling for us. We have fish and chips. Wife's cod is perfect. My haddock is perfect. The chips are perfect---soft inside, crisp outside. I even eat the cole slaw, something that I utterly detest, therefore usually avoid. To be fair to Archie's, I give their slaw a go----crisp, not saturated in mayonnaise. Were I ever to enjoy cole slaw, then this might be the slaw for me. Wife enjoys a "Pulp Friction" craft brew while I have a pint o' Boddington's. We enjoy both. Hadn't had a Boddingtons since 2006---it really takes me "down memory lane." In terms of service, things move along at a good pace, nothing too slow and nothing too fast. If you give Archie's a go, know that it shares a building with Dunkin' Donuts. It is not one of the shops in the plaza attached to Publix. We learned this the hard way. We will be going back very soon. read more

Having lived in England for 7 years I love fish and chips. This place has the best fish and chips I've had in the states. They also have a fantastic sticky toffee pudding that I told my husband I was not sharing and he'd have to get his own, which he did. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. The staff (Gregg ) was very accommodating. read more

Whenever I watch the Food Channel or any other historical, food-related show, they often have the audacity to say that the worst cuisine in the world is British food. Now to be fair, I've had my fair share of "British food" here in the United States and they live up to that moniker, but I did travel across the pond to Great Britain (that's England for all you who don't know) and ate real British food. It... is... amazing. To be fair, the "British food" I ate here in the U.S. prior to my trip to Europe were "gimmicks" in carnivals and circuses. There simply wasn't a real British bar or pub that made such delectable fare. But thankfully, Melbourne now has one and it is called Archies Bar and Grill. Trust me, it is an amazing little dive attached at the hip with Dunkin' Donuts. Their pints and their grub are delicious, the atmosphere is friendly, and they really serve British food. For starters, it must be stressed that you may have eaten British (or English) food before. Besides the stereotypical English *insert kind of food here*, fried fish with fries (known as chips), Sheppard's pie, bangers and mash, and Beef Wellington are all British that we eat here. And I don't know about you but I love all those foods. With the exception of Beef Wellington, Archies has those two along with other bar favorites. They put a unique twist on Sheppard's pie too with potato boats and a burger. Of course you have to wash it down with a pint. They have numerous beers for you to enjoy (which I do) and if you're lucky, you can strike up a conversation with Tara, one of the waitresses there who really helped us out in picking and choosing our food and beer. I really hope people give Archies Bar and Grill a try simply to try out real British food. Just be happy they stuck with the "delicious side" of British food and did not bring in jellied eels or anything like that. Then again, we Americans eat bologna and spam and... well... yeah. :P read more

This is an excellent pub. The assortments of beer and wine is very nice. I prefer a pint of the London Pride myself. Today I enjoyed the fish and chips, a UK staple. Here they do this very nice with haddock or cod, your choice. I chose the haddock. The fish was crispy and absolutely delicious. The chips too were perfectly executed and went purfect when drizzled with malt vinegar. For dessert I tried the apple crisp. Generous apple slices with sauce, crumble, topped with whipped cream. Everything you could ever dream of. The service here is very good to so next you find yourself wanting British fare, drive staight to Archies. read more

The absolute best fish and chips in town! Casual atmosphere and staff is always friendly!

FOOD is FANTASTIC, met the owner and found him to be extremely amicable. The location doesn't feel like a pub until you get inside but the graphics of the mascot is what draws you in. Beautiful bull dog. read more

Small British restaurant with amazing food. We had the fish and chips along with the Rueben sandwich. Both were nice size portions and very favorable. Looking forward to returning again. read more

My newest local discovery, Archie's is an English pub. So far I have tried the fish and chips (with haddock, they also offer cod), and most recently I had one of the specials, Steak and Ale... The beer and ale selection is great, and the food is authentic as the barmaid... Cat... Great job guys, I will be back... Ok, I went back, had the Scotch Egg and the special burger.... there are no words to describe the scotch egg...it was sublime... and the burger was huge and most flavorful, with a hint of horseradish....yippee, I will return... ... can you say Boddingtons... read more

Amazing little place squeezed into space at a strip mall! Scotch Eggs were really great. Made with just the perfect spice blend in the sausage and just the right amount of crunch. I had the fried cod and chips all served perfectly cooked and so hot I had to eat slowly. Staff was super friendly and inviting. Definitely would recommend. read more

Went for dinner not expecting to much but, was pleasantly suprised. The atmosphere was nice very pub ish. The waiter was was super friendly and helpful and the Fish n Chips were really good and the portions were a good size too. We went on a Thursday night around 5 or 6 for dinner and we had to wait for a guy to bus our table. Every table was full and when we left the patio was full too. I'd say that's a pretty good testament on how good the place is. Can't wait to go back and try the Sheppard Pie. read more

So good!!! Their portions are huge and tasted amazing ! We had the haddock fish and chips. Not greasy and had so Much flavor . Definitely Coming back! Tony the bartender was awesome and friendly . read more

I've heard so many good things about this restaurant so I had to check it out. I'm so glad I did. They have the most awesome Fried Cod basket. The fish is huge, flaky and delicious! Coke slaw is awesome! They have a huge selection of beers on tap. It is a little small inside, so it can get noisy, but when you get your food you forget about the noise. I definitely will be back and will tell my friends to try it out. read more

Amazing fried fish! Not too much breading, not overdone, but not at all mushy... these folks know how to do it. Get some fish n' chips from some authentic brits! Been here for a minute now, but it's no longer a local secret. People come from all over Brevard for these eats now. I've never been to the UK, but I can't imagine them doing it any better over there. read more

DON'T ORDER THE REUBEN. 4 of us had dinner there a few nights ago. We sat outside, so I cannot comment on the inside. Great service and two of the meals (shepherd's pie) were delicious. However, the other two meals (Rueben's) were not. The corned beef was over cooked and stringy. We told the waitress, but there was no compensation. read more

This place is great! We've been here about 5 times and have had a great experience every time! The waiters are very friendly and the food is good. Our favorite is the fish and chips! read more

Been going here at least once a month... never disappoints! THE BEST HANDS DOWN IN TOWN fried Mushrooms!!!!

I had never heard of this restaurant before going there to have lunch with a couple of coworkers today. The staff is very welcoming, responsive, and knowledgeable about the menu items. The place is clean and cozy inside. Outside patio seating is also available if you feel like bringing your furry friend to dinner with you. The prices are reasonable. We had Scotch Eggs, Grilled Fish and Archie's Famous British Fish and Chips, and everything was delicious. Will recommend it to my friends. read more
