Truly authentic English Pub Food

If you’ve been to England, you know that most “English pubs” in America are sorry excuses for the real thing. The Whale & Ale is a definite exception! When you walk in, your nose is filled with the tantalizing scent of hot, fresh bread (which is delicious beyond description!), and your ears are filled with the happy buzz of conversation and music.

The staff are friendly and professional, and another nice-but-rare-feature in southern California; they accept reservations!

The food is brilliant, and, for the quality, it’s quite cheap. Their bartender makes a very good Pimm’s lemonade, and they have an interesting selection of excellent beers.

Dishes I tried:

Beef Wellington

5.0 star rating

This was the most gorgeous piece of beef I’ve ever been served. It was about a half-pound of thick, buttery tender filet mignon, cooked to juicy perfection in a savory, mouth-watering coating of sauteed mushroom-y goodness, and golden, flaky crust. An absolute steal for the price, but get there early, because they do run out as the evening goes on!
