British Hotel

Staff went above and beyond to make dinner special for my Partners “low key” birthday dinner. Thank you so much!

The service was excellent and the food was so delicious

We have often dined at the British and it seems to have improved since ownership changed hands. Maybe It was time for the previous owner to pass the baton as he was a bit tired!

Excellent food and service. Staff very helpful and food soooo good

My meal (pork) was really nice, but my friend’s was very small for a main (gnocchi). It took ages to be served, we had to ask for bread, and we skipped dessert because they just never came back to take our order. Bit disappointing.

My companion and I visit the British Hotel every time I am in Adelaide as our four times great grand father owned the hotel in the 1840s. We always enjoy good food, wine and service and today was no exception. We had a very good shared tapas platter and were thoroughly enjoying ourselves when I suddenly I had a fainting episode. The staff were marvellous. I can't thank thank them enough for their kindness. In any case, I strongly recommend the British Hotel for its food, service and ambience.

We had a great time food was perfect, service was great would recomment this hotel to everyone, had a great time

have been here many times..this time we had the share platter.. also had buffalo wings on the side..that was nice..think the share platter could had been a little better we feel... lamb spring rolls wasnt a favourite,feel like it could had been like the old menu with meat balls..also perhaps 3 arancini balls instead of 2 would look a bit better on the platter.

First time diner at this establishment, I would recommend the food and the ambiance in the dining room. The only disappointment was the lack of interest or enthusiasm of the waiting staff. One in particular was just going through the motions. We waited a long time to be offered drinks, one of actually got up from the table and went to check if we had to go to the bar to order. Even after that we still waited a while. It wasn’t even busy. A diner at a mother table accidentally knocked over a drink, we heard it so I imagine the wait staff did as well. No one went to help them mop up the table. Definitely room for Improvement.

First time diner and was I impressed! The quality and presentation of food was impeccable, service was super friendly and the waitress went head over heels to ensure all dietary requirements were met. This will be our new favourite pub delivering more than your ordinary pub meal. Exactly what we were seeking for over a casual Friday evening catch up with the girls! We will definately be back! Thank you The British you delivered!

Food was fantastic we all enjoyed our meals. The staff were awesome. Really helpful and friendly. The only problem was it was noisy but to be fair there was a birthday celebration at the next table

The food was good but the menu is a bit limited and on the pricey end for a pub. Excellent service and nice and relaxing setting

It is a great pub, I'd go there for a typical pub meal as I felt the atmosphere was better in the main pub/bar areas.

We attended the restaurant on New Year's eve which we also did the previous year, along with visiting the British at other times when we visit Adelaide. The staff were very attentive on the evening and our meals were photo worthy (I posted them on facebook and received a lot of comments as to how good the food looked, they were delicious (compliments to the kitchen staff).

Love the food, always top quality and delicious! Never had any issues here, it’s always a winner!

Fantastic food friendly staff lovely ambience with all the plants. Will be back. Table of eight all enjoyed the night and meals to suit everyone

Great service, delicious food nice selection of beers and wine and a perfect outdoor dining area indoors. Great on a sunny spring day or any day for that matter.

Great food and great service. A very enjoyable evening. We invite guests from interstate and they were impressed with the history and atmostphere AS well AS the food and service

This local pub used to be fabulous but the service during my recent visit was appalling. No wonder it was so quiet on a Friday night. Such a shame as simple changes and training staff would make all the difference.

Service and food was great. You have a very good chef and your staff were friendly and helpful. Many thanks, and always great to see and open kitchen.

Excellent all round service. The welcome was warm, the sparkling wine chilled, the steak perfectly cooked. My husband and I were celebrating and the Staff made us feel very special. We are most grateful! An elderly gentleman took ill whilst we were there and an ambulance was required. We were so impressed with the calmness of the Staff, their care and compassion. Full Mark's to them!!

Very tasty meals, quick and attentive service. Probably the best steaks we've had in as while. The heat lamps keep the outdoor area nice and cosy in winter. Will be back!

Decent but on the pricey side for what it was. 2 out of 4 mains were good. The other 2 were pretty average. 1 of the 3 entrees was good. Service was very good, though the meals were slow out and it was a quiet night. Overall, not much better than a standard pub meal, at a premium price.

Regular diner at the British - New Menu is Yummy Can recommend the Lamb salad with spinach, pearl barley cranberries & pomegranate glaze - 10/10

Excellent food, great staff and a enjoyable experience. Booking online was really easy and successful. I would definitely recommend this Hotel to friends and acquaintances.

Great food and atmosphere , service was good also! We will definitely be back.

Great food and service. Fires were on nice and cozy No pokies or loud music so no riff raff. Rekaxing . Easy parking in street

Friendly service. Great food and quality wine. Fantastic option before football at Adelaide Oval. Consistently good over the years. Not bad for one of the oldest pubs in Adelaide.

Table service for lunch this time and excellent dining selection for a pub. Not to crowded with tables and friendly waitresses. See you there some time.

We had a great time, good steaks and service. The restaurant was a little breezy sitting outside on a cold Winters night. Overall great night

Lovely food and attentive staff. They were able to accommodate our specific dietary requirements without a fuss and made notes to ensure everyone knew there was a sufferer of celiac disease. We will definitely be back.

Restaurant service was Excellent. Food was good - duck terrine; haloumi; crab spaghetti and pan fried gnocchi. Front bar disappointing. Not the cosy, warm set up we were expecting with the open fire.

Lovely meal. Recommend the King Prawns & Crab Linguine. Friendly staff. Cold beer. Just before a game at the Adelaide Oval. What more could I ask for? Happy Days..

Really Lovely hotel. Sensational meals. Highly recommend the Steak. Service is superb. Perfect location. Very easy to park. One of my favorite hotels in Adelaide. Great vibe and atmosphere

We have never had a bad day at the British. The staff are so nice, the food it great, even the regulars are quite happy to sit at the bar and have a chat. It has become one of our favourite places to go for a nice feed and a couple of drinks.

Friendly staff, I was in the old part near the covered beer garden with cosy outdoor gas heating. The food well presented, delicious & a decent size. Strongly recommend.

I love the British especially on a cold wintry afternoon. The food is always good and service is great. Our go to place when the crows are playing at home.

You had an engagement party outside and the service inside was a bit slow. We had to ask several times for glasses or wine menu and a desert that got forgotten. It was a lovely meal and the surrounding were nice. the party was quite noisy but that happens. we felt we got a bit forgotten at times.

Nice pub warm open fires food was excellent my only negative was the staff could have been a little more attentive- we had to ask for a drink menu then for the food menu then for the dessert menu and had to get up to get the bill ourselves so we could leave .

Food was fabulous! Lovely, friendly service. We had quite a few extra people arrive and the staff catered for us quickly and without fuss. We had a great night, thankyou.

Great food, well cooked and an excellent range of beer / wine. Service was good and the bistro was well heated considering it was a cold night

It took a while for our party to be seated. But after that, the service, food and wine was great. Will definitely be coming back.

Good food good atmosphere unfortunatley they dont sell the rib eye steak they were famous for also on their website, but will certainly be returning soon

We have always enjoyed the British and have spread the word to our friends as always being great food atmosphere and value. Last night I don’t know what went wrong but looking around the room ....many people seemed annoyed and just sitting waiting for their food. We were told the wait was going to be longer than normal but for us I had to ask that one of our guests at least get her entree ASAP as she was feeling ill and was pregnant had a scare that afternoon and had just come from the hospital from a check up. Waitress seemed annoyed as if I was que jumping that was not the case. She brought back a role later and that was enough for Louise at that time. Very disappointed as had not taken this couple there before and I will be talking to my friends. I know tonight a work colleague and her friends have booked in so on Monday will be interested in their experience. Like us they have always been very happy with the British.

Fantastic food, drinks & service .. we will be back!! Thank you for being so friendly and welcoming. Buffalo wings are divine!! Everyone on our table said the coffee was amazing too!

Good food and service set in a pleasant atmosphere reminiscent of an English pub. The hotel is within easy walking distance of the Adelaide Oval.

The food and food service was very good, but waiting at the bar for drinks was a somewhat demeaning experience. I felt I was deliberately ignored for quite some time. Others were served ahead of me, and I was made to feel unwelcome.

Great friendly staff and great food. We will definitely be going back, it has that more personal touch since they have changed the way you order your food and pay for it

Excellent food. Fantastic staff. Great atmosphere. It’s a great little pub. I always enjoy going there & have never had a bad meal. Can highly recommend.

The food was good and the service was very good. The atmosphere and feel of the British hotel was very comfortable and pleasing. Good value for money.
