Editorial Review for Brit's Pub – by Jennifer Blaise

In Short
Brit's has become a local landmark and everyone's welcome. Downtown workers hit this multilevel bar for happy hour, singles love the late-night vibe at the street-side bar and sidewalk seating and families flock for tasty fish-and-chips. In winter, it's a refuge with cozy fireplaces and afternoon drinks. Come summer, friends mingle, barefoot on the green, playing croquet or learning to lawn bowl on the roof until blankets and beers fill the lawn for twilight movies.

VERY BAD service... We had to get our own drinks.... We wanted to lawn bowl, and we were told to come back in a few hours.. Got there ahead of schedule and waiting to lawn bowl. They let an entire group of people go before us; then told us we couldn't bowl. I live downtown - 3 blocks from there actually and WILL NEVER go there again - - and will tell others to do the same.

Brit's has the potential to be fun....great atmosphere, superb location, beautiful summertime patio....and yet these assets are overshadowed by the most hideously sub-standard staff in the metro area. Perhaps this establishment is petitioning for the title of: "Worst Servers and Management in America!" If so, then congratulations, you're well on your way. Slow, lazy, rude, unapologetic for mistakes....these are some of the examples of the so-called "service" I have experienced when patronizing Brit's. The food is sub-par at best, and a word to the wise: don't go if you are excessively hungry or thirsty. It is possible that they place every food and drink order IN BRITAIN, given the amount of time it takes to receive your order. As a former frequent Brit's guest, I often forgave the atrocious service by way of a lovely summer evening on the patio, but really, enough is enough. No more rewarding bad business with my business.

Cons: Service, service, service.
