RE: The American in the Quasi-British Pub

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

When we were in the UK for several weeks last year we hit a lot of pubs. We're not pub people and don't hang around in them here so if felt a little odd. We loved it though. The atmosphere, the old-worldyness of it, the fact it felt comfortable. The food was amazing which were were not prepared for either. Had expected it to be bland and one dimensional. It was basic fare, but done with class and with obviously great produce.

We're still not bar or pub people but there's something about sitting in a 300 year old building surrounded by layers of history all enshrouded by a thatched roof...Will go back for more.

Nice little piece here Ginny.

Yes, it definitely sounds very different from the American bar culture, which consists of chicken wings and football. The place I went to here I think was a bit of a mixture of both, with a bit of museum thrown in :)

Thanks for stopping by.

I always stop by, just don't have the chance to respond always, not with validity anyway.

That's very sweet. I have that problem too. I don't comment anywhere near enough, but there is so little time for me to be on here. I put writing above socializing.

This is a hobby for me, as for you too I think, a release of sorts...I get that you're busy elsewhere though, makes getting a comment from you all the more valuable. 😉
