British Open Pub

A great restaurant earns its reputation over time.  Even if a new eatery opens to rave reviews, it is a consistent delivery of impeccable plates every single time that makes people really take notice.  And, if the kitchen is the heart and soul of a restaurant, with everything flowing out to awaiting patrons, then it is those very customers who provide the personality to the establishment.  You can tell the character of a great pub as soon as you walk in.  Generally, a steady stream of laughter can be heard along with lively conversations coming from the regulars, there for the great chats as much as the exceptional food.  A lively hubbub nicely accompanies the beautiful esthetics of the quaint bar area and an expansive dining room means the usually large crowds will not have to wait.  But, something peculiar happens when the plates are served.  The conversations die down, people take notice of the gorgeous food on their plates and everyone dives in to their bangers and mash.

At British Open Pub, on Jacaranda Boulevard in Venice, they feel that “people are the heart and soul of any pub.”  From every interaction with their clientele to each well-placed detail within the restaurant, charm and hominess exudes.  Like any great English pub, the characters who linger at the bar and dwell over the great cottage pie are really the lifeblood of the whole establishment.  At British Open Pub, they place the client on the top rung, making sure every moment spent there is enjoyable and immensely tasty.

Oh, the menu!  Have you ever tasted a piece of fish so crispy on the outside, but perfectly flaky and moist on the inside, it seems to defy your sensibilities?  How do they achieve that perfection?  Is there some method of preparation that only British Open Pub has their hands on?  In any case, you will find yourself devouring every last morsel of the North Atlantic cod.  Make sure you save room for their perfectly-seasoned chips sitting right alongside.  Are you in the mood for a pub pie?  At British Open Pub, a Chicken and Mushroom Pie will make you think of Grandma’s Sunday dinner, even on a Tuesday.  The locals love their “sandwedges,” which will make even the hangriest gents feel better.  One bite of Barron’s Beef Bomber, with mounds of tender shaved beef or prime rib on a hearty hoagie roll with au jus and all will be right with the world again.  Good food has a tendency to do that for people.  As is the case with any amazing pub, the beer takes a starring role.  At British Open Pub, they are proud to serve 15 draught beers, along with daily drink specials.

When it comes to IBE, the folks at British Open Pub consider the organization to be an integral part of their business growth and development.  When they needed a complete construction build out of their restaurant, they knew there was only one reputable bartering organization with whom they could get this done.  Relying on bartering to fund all of the contractors, materials and labor allowed them to free up their own capital for other business needs.  Without IBE, British Open Pub would not be have been able to reach the potential they are enjoying today.  Even now, they use several IBE businesses to take care of repairs and also enjoy trying new restaurants via QR Certificates.  Without hesitation, British Open Pub considers the International Barter Exchange to be a great friend of the restaurant and wonderful resource to partner with for the future.
