Lion & Eagle English Pub

Kate Colozzi

Fun little pub to watch the premiership games and get the best fish n chips! I have lived in the US for 24 years, and The Lion & Eagle serves by far the best fish n chips I have tasted here in that time! Authentic, delicious, and plentiful - and don’t forget a side of curry sauce.

A small pub without the fake fanciness of many places; it’s simple, they keep it real, could be more of a dive place in Chicago than South Florida. I like it, in simple words. They have a very short menu, but you don’t come for gourmet, this is a place to chill in an unpretentious pub, have some good beers and maybe a scotch. I had the chicken tenders, plenty of them in the plate; they were okay, but it’s not about the place, it’s about the fact that in the US the tendency to over bread and over fry chicken is everywhere. So these tenders are in line with most; plenty of steak fries accompanied that. One thing, very important: everything we had that was fried tastes fresh including the oil, which doesn’t often happen, even in so-called “upscale pubs”. My wife had the fish and chips and it was huge, made with haddock: she loved it: fresh, not too deep fried, she said it was the best one she ever had. Beers are plenty and they are pretty honest also with liquors: I had a Macallan 12 for 12 bucks. They show a lot of soccer games, especially from the British Premier League and they even open early in the morning on the week-end for that. If you plan on going, keep in mind it’s a small place so for big games you might want to get there a bit early. Good place to chill for when you feel in a “jeans and t-shirt” mood. It’s a sort of Fox and Hound that didn’t become fancier, and stayed true to the task: keep it simple, keep it real, cook well a few things, and offer good drinks at reasonable prices. Will be back.

We stopped at this bar for a quick dinner on a Saturday. It is a very small pub (they only have 3-4 tables both inside and in the outdoor small patio), and it was almost empty, but I really loved it! It is a very unpretentious place, yet it has a true English pub’s vibe. They have a full bar and great beers. The menu is very limited but everything is cheap. I have never been a fan of Fish and Chips, but after reading several positive reviews about the ones made here, I decided to give it a try: they are so good indeed! If that wouldn’t be enough: since the portion was huge, I brought home almost half of it to eat for lunch the following day. The leftovers re-heated in the oven tasted even better than the day before! The bartender was great, and also the few people there (you could tell they were regulars) were very welcoming. I also like the fact that the place is dog friendly. If you like European soccer: they show A LOT of matches (I understand they even open the pub at 6am, if needed!). I hope to be able to go one day to watch one, but I will go certainly back for more Fish and Chips anyways!

Love this little English pub, real English football on the screens and best English breakfast I’ve had in 10 years of being a local. Great service from the attentive bartender. I’m definitely going back 😊
