This spacious, very authentic, 25-year-old British pub is located mere steps from the beach in Santa Monica and is much more than a restaurant; it’s a lifestyle. Ye Olde King’s Head encompasses some of the best that jolly old England has to offer, including an adjacent tearoom that serves sumptuous finger sandwiches and cream and jam scones, and a gift shop with imported European chocolates, newspapers and sweets. At the pub itself, which has plenty of seating inside and outside, you’ll enjoy an obligatory fish ‘n’ chips menu, a wall of dart boards and rowdy football (soccer) matches on the telly. Just like its counterparts in England, Ye Olde King’s Head welcomes cheeky Chavs looking to get pissed after work, as well as comparatively peaceful families who simply want to kick the sand off their feet and knock back on a Saturday afternoon with a pint or a cuppa. If you want to feel legitimately British, order a Scotch egg, Cornish pastie or bangers and mash and wash it down with a Guinness, Boddington Ale or crisp Snake Bite (cider and lager), all of which are on tap. Cheers, mate!
