    Wings
    Jessie A.

    The food was surprisingly really good. Everything we ate was tasty which i would not have guessed for a pub. It came out really fast too.

    Philly cheesesteak w onion rings

    Hot diggity damn yo. My first time eating here and it's great. I got the cheesesteak w pizza style marinara sauce. So good. The onion rings were a bit on the top salty side but probably just a one off thing. Also got the half n half burger. Half burger half bacon. Real good. Had some juneshine Pog on tab, delicious. Can't go wrong coming here.

    Inside - lots of TVs

    4+ British style pub located in Hermosa Beach a couple blocks away from the pier. Great selection of beers and spirits for your drinking needs. The menu is what you might expect at a British pub. There's plenty of TVs all around to watch games and the service during my visit was great. A couple of my friends and I came to this place to watch some soccer games. There was a lot going on that day so we got there a little early to secure our table. Started with a Bloody Mary and ordered some poutine on tater tots for the table, and I ordered some bangers and mash for myself. I substituted the fries for the mashed potatoes. The rest of my meal and time there I switched over to Guinness. I thought the food was actually good. I don't think I ever had English style sausages, but I thought they were delicious. I also love french fries so definitely no complaints there. It was my first time trying the HP sauce as well with my food. Definitely a great place to watch soccer matches. I would assume that it's a great place to watch other sports during the football season, etc. it's a fun and lively atmosphere there for sure without being overly crazy. Parking could be a challenge since it is near the Hermosa pier, but there is a little bit of parking in the lot in the back. We came early on Sunday so it was a little less hectic around the neighborhood.

    I honestly don't know how yesterday was my first time at Underground Pub--but it definitely won't be my last. Cindy behind the bar? Total vibe. Fun, friendly, and made me feel like I'd been a regular for years. It was the perfect post-brunch pit stop... dimly lit, great music, and strong-ass drinks. Speaking of drinks: I (okay, Cindy did) found my new go-to dive bar cocktail--vodka, soda, splash of cranberry and a splash of pineapple. You know what they say about pineapple... wink. The food looked way better than you'd expect from a neighborhood pub--next time, I'm absolutely trying it. Cheap. Sexy. Strong. Just how I like my cocktails and my dive bars. Already plotting my return, Underground.

    Bartender was very nice and we enjoyed the food. They still need some British beers but the beers they do have are decent.

    Ari is the best!! Excellent service and is a baddie for sure she always makes me laugh

    $1 Wing night!

    We found this spot while looking for a pub to try in Hermosa Beach. It is in an out of the way location, so unless you are local you'll need something to prompt you to go there (google search). I often like off the beaten path venues. It was very easy to find my level of comfort in this place, just a classic neighborhood pub feel. The menu items all sounded tempting, but i happened to come on the $1 wing night so i had to try them of course! To be candid, the wings were neither horrible or spectacular- somewhere dead center. While i stand by the fact that this would seem to be a great after work gathering place, their grog was pretty expensive. Even for a non beach front property the drink prices were pretty much the same as the other places in this town.....too expensive for the venue. Service behind the bar was good as the bartender was affable. Great place to hang if you are a local I imagine. Unfortunately I don't live near here so it may be awhile before i can come back and try again.

    a glass of beer
    Geronimo T.

    Went here for a retirement party. I did not eat but just drank. Assorted selections of IPA and Draft domestic beer. Bartenders were very nice and are attentive to your needs, which is definitely a plus! Good fun sport's ambiance. TVs are everywhere along with 2 pool tables and dart games. This place is hidden. Pretty cool kickback spot to hang out. I recommend. 4 stars only since I did not taste their food provided on the menu. Had a great time!

    So disappointed with this spot. First it was stuffy and hot in there, the climate is uncomfortable to sit in. Staff was not super attentive, had to constantly get up and ask for things. We got the mother of god burger. Was SO SO greasy. Obviously a burger in general is greasy but it was OVERKILL with the grease. Also had too many ingredients stuffed in it made it hard to eat and so messy to eat. The only thing that was good was with citrus aioli and the fries both regular and sweet potato. Will not be coming back here. Was a waste of calories. My man and i are both bummed we spent our calories here, burger was average at best. Huge disappointment.

    Old school bar obviously run by Brits. We went there with a friend to play pool and have a few beers. This area gets pretty crowded on the weekend but the bar was pretty empty. The entrance is tucked in off an alley and hidden from the majority of curious eyes. We were there during the time when the state was easing the COVID-19 regulations and the rules were that we had to wear a mask sitting but we were allowed have the mask off while playing pool. This obnoxious guy at the bar kept giving me warnings even though there were no people around us. The service was also lacked and all equipment was run down. All in all I just didn't jive with the vibe.

    Ask the Community - Underground Pub and Grill

    What is the cost range of the alcohol?

    We are very competitive compared to other bars and restaurants in Hermosa. The range is quite wide because we have everything from domestic beer to high-end liquors.

    Do u allow small dogs on Sunday afternoon?

    Unfortunately, although we are an English Pub we are not in England and must follow local health regulations. Consequently we allow on-duty service dogs only.

    Is Chelsea's side done for good?

    Chelsea has transformed into Fox and Farrow. For more info here's the website https://www.foxandfarrow.com/

    Can I bring my younger brother who's 20 to watch the euros ? Or does he need to be 21 to enter?

    Minors are generally allowed when the kitchen is open. So, during most soccer events they are allowed.

    Will you be showing any world cup rugby matches?

    Hi. Unfortunately most of the games are either in the middle of the night or PPV or both. We do show the 10pm games that are broadcasted.

    Will you be showing Ireland vs Japan next week?

    Unfortunately not as the game starts about an hour before we have to close.

    Will you be showing SA v Argintina today?

    Unfortunately it is only available through streaming.

    Will you have World Cup of Cricket viewing?

    Sorry, we will not be able to show the games as they are available only on streaming services which do not allow for commercial viewing.

    Hi are you showing the All Black Argentina game today?

    Hi. Unfortunately that game is on ESPN+, which we do not have but we are getting it next week.

Small parking lot that may park about 5 cars and watch the street signs for parking. Pool table & full service bar. Mostly bar seating with a banquette along one wall. What made this bar cool is Sandra, la Reina de Moctezuma as she refers to herself. Breezy, lively, nonchalante, a bit coquettish to the "right guy", socially charming to her other guests. She creates her own story line to create her aura & drama. Author John Rechy, if he were straight, would have featured Miz Sandra in one of his novels like the City of Night. Ordered a pint of Guinness & Harp combination, but I didn't call it a "black & tan" in an Irish pub for historical reasons. But Sandra told me they don't have Harp, and suggested I do a Snake Bite instead which is half Guinness & Hard Cider. I opted for just Guinness since I wasn't in an experimental mood. Later, she was kind enough to let me sample a shot of the Strong Bow Hard Cider which was smooth, sweet, acidic with actual sour apple flavour. Next time I'll have to order the Snake Bite. Don't know how exactly Irish Sly Fox is with its grunge-garage rock music. But it's a good, unpretentious, local hang out. And of course, there's Sandra, la Reina de Moctezuma who is worth the visit. 4- stars

Plus it's alway nice to pop in to see friends and of course a meet up spot. This past weekend, the weather was perfect in Santa Monica. It was quite nice to have a table along the patio and perfect for people watching. We were meeting up a friend for a catch up and a meal to end the day with. The staffs are alway so friendly and welcoming each and every time we're here. If you haven't been, it's broken down to a few different areas but all connected. There's the British shop on one comer. If you continue on, you have the restaurant which has two different bars. On the left, that's more of a mellow smaller bar but does get fun. The main bar is on the other end of the building. That's where you get the full bar experience with darts and where all the games are shown. It does get quite busy whenever there's a game on so be advised. There's also an outdoor seating area as well. Then you have the main dining area right when you walk in. There's two main seating area which are both nice. One seems more like the dining room while the other is more of a casual dining area. Regardless, the food will always be the same. As it was Sunday, the roast is alway a good choice. Nothing elaborate but your classic roast. There was beef or lamb available with roasted potatoes, Yorkshire pudding served with your mixed veggies of cheesy carrots, peas, broccoli and cauliflower with gravy. Vegetarian options also available. Of course you cannot come here and not get fries (chips). Thick cut of goodness. Besides that, there's loads of traditional dishes available. I've had loads and they're all very good. Even if you just pop in for a pint, the place is quite fun. Bar area is fun and pretty lively. The place is quite casual which is nice for a stroll in. Can't leave out afternoon tea which is also offered. A fun time is alway had here each visit. Everyone is so friendly and sweet.

UCB was also on my schedule to support my comedian friends on stage. Back then, I'd catch a comedy show multiple times a week - and I realized I really miss that part of me. Laughter is sunshine for the soul and it makes me happy to get my daily stress out with some giggles. *** COMEDY x SPORTS BAR *** To keep with the Yelp Elite's 2026 theme of doing more hobbies, I decided to tap into one of mine, which I almost totally forgot about. So when I heard about HOLLY STARR'S OPEN MIC night from one of the guests I met at The LA Breakfast Club last month, I thought I'd check it out. I was in the Culver City area on a random Tuesday and wanted to avoid LA traffic back to the Eastside. *** THE PUB STUFF *** Joxer Daly's is a great sports bar with lots of TVs, a decent-sized stage with seating area, and some fun games in the corner. Every Tuesday at 8pm, that stage is set for LA's comedians who want to try out new material in an intimate setting. There's a ONE DRINK MINIMUM, which isn't hard considering they have a slew of brews on tap, one cider, and a full bar with top shelf choices & well drink specials. There's also bar food to snack on. Since I was drinking Guinness, it also served as my dinner for the night. *** THE DEETS FOR COMEDIANS *** 7:45pm. SIGN UP. The FIRST 10 to sign up, get center stage and all eyeballs focused on them for a dedicated amount of time. What I liked about this crowd is that everyone was really cool and it felt like a community. Some of the comedians were friends, some were stopping by to just test their wit. Some jokes landed, some not so much. Either way, no hecklers in this crowd and everyone put on their big boy/girl pants to show their respect. All the support was genuine. And it was all very inclusive with a he, she, they in the bunch offering diverse POVs and different styles & punchlines. Other highlights: From what I heard, there's always at least one professional, touring comic at the mic. So you never know who may show up. (This is LA of course.) Also, no need to search endlessly for a spot or feed a meter while anxiously checking your watch because there's plenty of FREE STREET PARKING, which is a luxury on the Westside. And laughs are also complimentary. Perhaps one day, I may dare to step up to that mic, but I'll need to excavate my pent up mommy issues or let another decade or pandemic pass. For now, I'll hide behind my laptop and save the stage for the real comedians in LA trying to make it & make me laugh -- even if I am the butt of their jokes.

Met up with some Penn State Nittany Lions fans who invited me to watch the game with them. The Brit is a PSU and also a Philadelphia Eagles hot spot. I was the first person there. Met Sonia - not sure if I'm spelling her name right but she was very friendly. There was another staff member who showed up and was the primary server but I don't remember her name. She was attentive, courteous and handled her business both indoors and out. See pics. went for a breakfast sandwich - though I did throw back a few adult beverages. For bar food, the prices were great and the food was good. The drinks were drinks - Bourbon, Beer and a Bloody Mary. Not overpriced and not stingy on the pours. It was a fun time - not rowdy but supportive fans. I don't know what it's like in the evenings but I'd definitely stop in to check it out instead of going to another place nearby that I usually find myself at.
