from across the pond

best italian anywhere!!!. this is the original joe's pasta-n-pizza started in 1991 across the street and cannot be equaled anywhere for their italian dishes or new york style pizza. the flavors are what you want when you are in the mood for the best comfort food on the planet. they make their marinara sauce from scratch, bake their own rolls slathered with tons of butter, and every bite of their delicious food melts in your mouth as it explodes with flavor. their pizza-by-the-slice is the best i've ever put in my mouth, and i've eaten at all the new york and chicago standards. none of the big names comes even close to joe's/pond. the alfredo sauce is to die for, the extra rich creamy romano cheese flavor is so distinctive.

their service is more than friendly, helpful and attentive. you simply could not imagine more caring and courteous waitstaff. expect to relax and enjoy yourself in a genuinely homey atmosphere.

i have eaten here every day of the week they are open and have seen nothing but ecstatic customers and families enjoying themselves. i am sure that the negative reviews here are from the low life albanian competitors in the area that would do anything to steal customers.

although i have not eaten their english fare, i can't wait to try. these are wonderful down home people that care about their customers and it shows.

has a new location and new menu. food is absolutely amazing and fresh. banger balls and mash was absolutely amazing. fish and chips are the best around. great pub feel. outstanding!!!

what all can i praise about this place! it’s my husband and my favorite restaurant. i’m plagued by food allergies, like gluten, and have a hard time eating out. here i have a huge selection to choose from and you wouldn’t even know it’s gluten free thanks to their talented chiefs and baker. my husband doesn’t have any food restrictions but is happy to eat there as it’s all so good.
the atmosphere is also fun! the decor is all quintessential british kitch from a life size tardis to classic rock albums. the bar is great to hang in with great cocktails and british beers on tap. if you're a football (soccer) game, they have special opening times so you can watch your favorite british team play live!
they have a separated area that is great for parties (i've used it twice for birthdays). there is a nice open ”family” area with no tvs so you can enjoy distraction free dining and game place with darts and other fun stuff.

only thing good was our waitress. fish & chips claims “award winning", that award must be for worst fish & chips! tasted terrible, didn't eat them and had them taken off our ticket. cheese fries were bearable at best... cheese was tasteless. won't ever go back, no need. completes the series of terrible restaurants on bedford-euless rd. no reason to even travel the route.

just found one of my new favs! my wife and i have been in england several times and from across the pond reminds us of our happy times there eating in english pubs. particularly made us think of the anchor on the banks of the thames just down from the globe theatre. i had the english roast dinner (served on sunday only) with peas, mashed potatoes, and yorkshire pudding. it was very authentic and wonderful as was my wife's fish and chips! our server was very cordial and proud of their establishment. what a great find! we will definitely make this a regular choice and highly recommend from across the pond! r&s

loved the food & great staff.. been there a couple of times & we"re going back, love this place..
we recommend this to all our friends.. that's all i gave to say about that,

great menu items, but our favorite was the gravy fries - which is what it sounds like. i had the fish and chips and found it to be a bit dry. the others had the beef and guiness stew and emma's shepherds pie, which was like a large pot pie with all the usual shepherds pie ingredients, and was the favorite of the entrees. it was very busy when we were there and may have impacted quality a bit, so will likely try again.

service is very very slow, the waitstaff is more interested in talking to each other and are always on their cell phones.  menu is ok, overpriced for the portions.  the food is good however, just dont be in a hurry when going.  and where is the "pub", they only have four or five beers on tap, and limited bar.  if you want a pub feel, fo to the londoner or the ginger man...they have lots of beers on tap.

not byob. urban and yelp say byob, but when you get there they refuse to honor it....

wicked fabulous!. i brought my memaw to have lunch last sunday. thank goodness they had the dallas cowboys game on. nothing comes between memaw & her cowboys. despite that fact, she had this glowing review..."that philly cheesesteak sandwich was out of this world."

across the pond. british type eatery--the food was awful, the music was too loud & the fake accents from the waiters was a joke. a real flop. the food took forever to come out & it was covered up with cheese. we will not be back. there are too many other places that beat this by a mile.

sok. the people were very friendly. i ordered the fish n chips and shepherd's pie. the fish was good but they didn't give any malt vinegar!? the shepherds pie was big but needed some more vegetables in it.

sticker shock. breakfast - terrible service and ludicrously overpriced. $6.00us for a hard boiled egg wrapped in bland sausage and $1.50 watered down coffee. waitress was completely overwhelmed and not the least bit attentive.

where's the pub?. at first glace the prices may surprise you, but the portions are exuberant! take in stride that an item such as the shephard's pie is truly enough to feed three. no joke! the food is quite decent, and all made fresh. the rolls were fresh, and such a great start to our meal. they were fresh and light, but let's just say it. you don't need a ton of parsley all over them with the olive oil. it's not necessary, just overkill. less is better, and these rolls are perfect without all the green!
this was my first time coming here, and i will say this now. ..yes, the food was good, but the atmosphere is cold. no warmth, and the staff, well the menu had more personality than our server. i saw the owner talking to a couple of patrons, and seemed very nice. unfortunately our waitress was very distracted with her 2 tables, one of which was at the bar, and she held no regard for follow up. i tried 3 times to ask for some hot tea or something warm, and finally gave up. i don't know her name, she never gave it. in fact when she gave us our bill, she took off before my husband actually could ask about dessert. i came there, because i saw good reviews, and i wanted to try some good english pub food. the food was good, but where was the english pub? well there was about 3 beers on tap, all of about 7 wine glasses hanging, and no evidence of any real wine to choose from. very limiting, and being that it was 5 o' clock, it would have been nice to just relax. we felt a bit cold, not cozy, despite the sign saying "come in a stranger go out being friends". not just the staff at hand, but the decor could use some warmth to it. it is a pub, right??
regardless of the price of the meal, i will go back sometime and try again. hopefully we just got them on an off day. even on an off day the food was good. my husband's fish and chips were decent. fresh fries, homemade, just needs more cod. two fillets and 2/3 of a plate of fries is a bit uneven. the mashed peas, were great, and the chips n' gravy was really hearty and inviting. you cannot really mess up shepard's pie, it was good, a huge portion, with homemade mashed potatoes to top. this recipe is good, a bit tomatoey, but over all good. i would eat this again. i hope to try other parts of the menu, hopefully next time we will get a server willing to talk, and walk us through the menu. maybe even wanting to stick around and add onto the bill by just making suggestions. we are the customers, we don't know the menu. tell us what is to die for. tell us what is the #1 item, and why.

yes, this place lacks when it comes to decor ("nice" plastic coverings on tables, cushioned seats, random posters on white painted walls eric.) and a bar that is awkwardly located in the middle of the dining room, but there is a nice vibe to the place, beer on tap is legit, and the food is good.

if you are not familiar with british cuisine don't worry: the menu plays it safe so you can't go wrong. they even have pizza.

i started with an order of chips (what they call fries) with gravy: thick cut potatoes similar to steak fries in a gravy that's never seen drippings (very authentic brit fair). tasty: think canadian poutine without the cheese curds.

i also had the guinness beef stew: very hearty and delicious.
