    $13 fish and chips
    Denise D.

    I came out for a Saturday of live music and was super pleased to find a late night happy hour AND some of the best bartenders and staff I've encountered in the longest. Staff was super responsive when I mentioned a concern about a patron, but they were all so playful with one another, it was fun to watch. I couldn't decide what I wanted to drink, and the bartender offered a great idea: he'd bring mystery shots to the table, and only charge for one. The shooter? DELICIOUS! It was a white tea shooter, and the first time I'd ever tried it. The food, was...BAR FOOD. Not super tasty (which is wild, because I have had some very yummy fish and chips here). But honestly, at the happy hour price, who can complain? I definitely enjoy a night here again. There was a chill diversity in the patrons, so I'd happily spend a fuzzy night here making new friends.

    Honestly love the Brit. They are super cool here and super clean. They don't leave empty stuff laying around. They are on top of stuff like that. Service is quick and accurate and we definitely will come again. Worth a stop if you love hole in the wall old school bars.

    Cornish Pasty, originally the shape of a crescent.
    Kelly M.

    Britannia Arms is one of the few British pubs left in the area. The atmosphere is dark and the sports-watching crowd gets a bit loud, at least on the day we went. So, not a place for a quiet meal! I ordered the Cornish Pasty with veggies and shoestring fries. My husband ordered the Fish, Prawns, & chips (also shoestring fries), and he enjoyed his meal. We shared a dinner salad; it was pretty good and huge. I was served a chicken pot pie by mistake, but they brought me the pasty afterwards. It turns out I liked the chicken pot pie a bit better. The pasty had mostly beef inside, and I would have preferred more of a mix with veggies. Unfortunately, the crust on both was soft without a hint of flakiness. So, the food was a bit of a mixed bag, but the service was good. I might go back to try something else.

    The food is not that good and I would rather eat at Chili's, but the vibes are okay. I would only recommend coming for Happy Hour since they have a pretty generous menu or during their fun events like Karaoke. Service is decent and there's plenty of seating (especially on the weekdays when there is no wait).

    British pub with surprisingly good eats! They have a large food menu and we enjoyed everything we ordered. My favorite was the tacos and the Reuben sandwich. The cocktails were a bit too sweet for us. They have a bar area, dining area, and outdoor patio. Service was great.

    The office trivia special- deep fried snickers and ice cream
    Jenny N.

    Came for The Office trivia- stayed for the good times. Service - friendly and efficient during this Covid time. They were spread a little thin but they did a great job. Food was decent and filling- got the grilled cheese with ham. Not oily or anything and hit the spot. Drinks were good and they had themed drinks! Very fun experience and I definitely would be back if they have another trivia night!

    A fine place. No tribulations whatsoever. Happy to report that of the two times I've been here…read more(spaced over six months), Trials Pub is a winner. A handsome building with three distinct areas to settle in, it's easy to find comfort here. The choice mix-tape music with ample offerings from the 80s and 90s especially, help set the mood. And though this is an English pub, the music is not confined to the U.K. The beer selection is great - and international, as well. The Guiness menu on the wall is helpful, but there's even more to explore. Tumer Pils, Stella, et al. And there is a good whiskey menu, too. Trials is also great for food. I recently enjoyed their Pub Burger, which is a hearty plate of 1/2 lb. burger, with bacon, cheese, and the usual veggie accompaniment. The 'chips' are good and plentiful, but I have now tried their beer-battered onion rings -- and those are wonderful. Perfectly crunchy, not greasy, and just salty enough. If you do opt for the salad with any of your dishes, it's deep green and crafted with care. The side salad here is no afterthought. The Shepard's Pie looks great, and apparently is (though my dining companion failed to offer me a bite). Previously, I had enjoyed the falafel plate because sometimes, you just want falafel. Also previously, I tasted the chicken curry dish (hearty and delicious). The Mac n Cheese bites got high marks at our table, though I did not partake. The sausage rolls - classic pub fare - were very good on my first trip here. The cold water is refreshing and welcome. And the Tumer Pils hit the spot. It's all good here. Special mention for Thomas, one of the gents here. Super-likable, with a sly sense of humor, Thomas is a major asset at Trials Pub. Parking is easy -- or just ride-share -- just in case.

I was not totally surprised by the change, and I have driven by multiple times, so I have seen the change from the outside. The interior looks like beautifully decorated bar that serves food.

We were lucky that jazz band was still playing and apparently they play every Sunday from 7 PM through 9:30 PM!! They had a number of different beers on top as well as some bottled beers. I really want to come back and eat lunch here!! Sadly, they only had two red wines and no white wines. The red cab I had was tasty and worked fine for the evening, but mainly the live jazz band was my favorite part!! Great environment, good sound system, and amazing live jazz!! Not to mention the one bartender, a young lady who was running the whole joint by herself!! She kept everything clean and organized, and she was very patient with each customer that came up when they wanted to sample different beers! I will definitely be back!!
