    I visited on a slow Thursday and the place was blissfully empty. They are going for British pub-vibe, which I enjoyed. I only tried 4 samples; nothing knocked my socks off but all were very drinkable. But what I really enjoyed was the huge indoor space and food options. I got a fairly cheap set of hot wings that didn't blow my socks off but for the price I'll take more (and I shall, next time).

    A very good start. Nice facility. Owner stops and talks to the visitors . Interesting British themed menu. The beer was good and I expect it will get better. They are still on their first batches. Pro tip: Make it a double by going to the best locally winery a mile away. 868 winery.

    British style pub food and brews. Really nice views both inside and outside. Recommend the bitter ale and the stout. Nice new add to the Loudoun craft brew scene.

    Came here with a buddy about a week after their opening day. Really nice open tasting room, with a nice upstairs area. I got a couple of different beers and will say they weren't perfect, but I will give them a pass for a bit longer to get things figured out. I will be back!

    What a hidden gem. Great atmosphere and beer. Can't wait to get back for some live music or trivia.

    Wow, what a quaint British pub in the middle of Vienna. Parking is a little tight for this area,…read morebut you can definitely find some spots in the back on a weekday. I ended up biking and there's a bike stand really close by. My friend was craving fish and chips, so we ventured out this way. Because we came on a Thursday they had a deal going where if you ordered a pie, you could get a beer for free. Of course I had to partake, so I ordered the special pie, which was a masala, chicken, curry pie, and it was quite good. A bit small for the price point but with the beer included totally worth it also because their fries are so good. I could demolish over a pound of those fries. They were thick potato and maybe the extra added bonus of having to use a glass ketchup bottle added to it. My friend and I were also taught how to properly hit the ketchup bottle to get the ketchup out by the bartender. You find the 57 on the bottle at an angle and bump you palm there that instead of hitting the bottom and hoping and praying that ketchup comes out. It actually worked or at least it was more efficient than trying to hit the bottom of the bottle upside down. I had never had a hand pumped beer before, but it was quite good. They are a warm beer rotating and it was quite good, it especially paired well with the pie or fish and chips.

My husband is a die-had Arsenal fan and was overjoyed by the chaotic bar scene he encountered as soon as he entered. The City + Arsenal game had the entire bar packed with fans from both sides pulling up random seats wherever there was a free space. We came a bit late into the game but found a seat in a quieter area of the restaurant that still had good television access. With the dreary rain outside, it felt like we had settled right in a proper British pub! Food wise: - For my husband: Wings were generous, grilled, and delicious with interesting flavors - For me: Fish and chips were light, flakey, and came with some of the best house cut fries I've ever had. - For the kiddos: Although they had a kids menu, my daughters decided to split some pancakes (basically crepes with raspberries and cream sauce, scrambled eggs, bacon, and potatoes. Portions are more than generous and the managers were bustling around, talking shop, and thanking everyone who walked through their door. We will definitely be back!

My interpretation of the gist of what everyone was complaining about was that they used to come here all the time (as did I years ago, but it's been a year since being here) and they didn't like the new, slimmed down menu... and they definitely hated the prices here now. Our service was ok, nothing special. I feel like the majority of the servers are very young and might not have the training, nor experience to understand what true service is, not just taking orders and bringing food. The menu was nice. We liked their "Everyday is Sunday" section of the menu, so we tried 2 orders (4 persons) of the pork chop tomahawk and 1 order (2 persons) of the Côte de Boeuf. We started with their Scotch Egg - WOW! Really flavorful with a great texture, inside and out. Definitely a very nice way to start. Cocktails and wine were a hit here for sure! Especially Jarad's G&T, which we got a couple of. Main dishes were great! Plenty of food too!! The spices on the crust of the porkchop tomahawk were so tasty and the temperature was spot-on! The steak in the Côte de Boeuf was incredible! Perfectly seasoned and at that absolute perfect temperature too! The carrots that came with this were very nicely done, but the potatoes stole the show! This dish came with OUTSTANDING Fondant potatoes... They had a great, smokey flavor to them, as if they were basted in pork fat. The meat was perfectly textured and flavored. Overall - While this is no longer the Hunter's Head that many came to know, love, and enjoy, I feel they're doing a decent job here. I'll definitely return, as I want to try their fish & chips!

    I've heard of this place and when in the area recently, I bought many Pastys to bring home and…read moreenjoy later on. The place is really just carry-out, they have fresh made, hot pastys to go, which they can sell, as well as frozen pastys to bring home. They also have a large selection of snacks directly from England. Service was helpful, the guy working the counter was descriptive and helped me with how the various pastys were made. Also, when walking in the amazing smells of all the workers in the back making food smelled incredible! I opted for some of nearly all their offerings of pastys. A couple of days later I made the chicken masala for lunch. I used their directions for baking, not the microwaving to get it ready to eat. They were spot on and the pasty came our perfectly warmed up and ready to eat. The crust was outstanding! None of it was dry or tastless, the whole thing was flaky, perfect, buttery, and tasty! The filling was very nice, though it had no flavors that resembled Indian or "masala" to me, so I'm not sure what they consider masala, but that's not a bad thing as the filling tasted great! I'm looking forward to making and eating all the rest, I'm sure they'll be great too!

Beef: normally this would be my favorite back in the day but here... Absolutely no flavor. Quite surprised but I would not order again. Chicken Masala: decent flavor, probably my favorite out of all the oasties I got here. Moroccan lamb: decent flavor also. Chicken cordon bleu: not sure If I got a bad one but yea, hard pass. Sausage rolls: decent flavor. Price point is ok as the oasties were quite filled. It's just that a lot of them just didn't have that taste that I gotta come back for more taste. It was just.... Eh.

    I dream of proper fish & chips ever since living in London where it was staple lunch fare for me…read more London Chippy, located in the epiQ fool hall, definitely satisfies the craving for properly fried fish. My piece of cod was magnificent and absolutely perfectly fried, crispy and not greasy. For $14 I got a huge piece of fish and 2 sides. Way more food than I could eat so it's a great deal. While the fish is dead in perfect, the sides could use some attention. My chips were just ok. At least they were the proper cut of fries and soft on the inside with that signature chip droop, but they needed to be a bit crisper on the exterior to stand up to and complimentmy use of malt vinegar. The hush puppies were another matter. Almost all of mine were very under cooked which was ashame since the exterior hinted at a very tasty little ball. I will say the portions for both sides were very generous. Drink options are fountain soda (self yourself in the center of the food hall) or lemonade from the Chippy. Or get something from one of the other businesses. Plenty of seating as it's inside the epiQ food hall and a variety from high top tables, regular tables, and comfy lounge couches.
