We had been to the beach for an hour and decided that we needed to eat. We went to the Cricketers British Pub & Restaurant on Bayshore Blvd. Actually it is in the plaza on the corner of Curlew and Alt. 19.
We went in and seated ourselves. British Bob, as he is known, came over and asked Len if he wanted a beer. Len had a diet soda and I had water. He went to get us menus but we said that we had come in for the Steak & Kidney Pie @ $11.50. Len wanted French fries, which he got into trouble for saying, as they are chips in England, and mushy peas. I chose mixed vegetables and real mashed potatoes.
After around 20 minutes our meals came out. They looked and tasted excellent. The pastry was brown and flaky as it should be.
We ate about half of our meals and were beaten. We had to have a doggy bag.
While in the pub I checked out the "loos", not restrooms, and they were clean. On the walls were pictures of England, maps, soccer scarves, and lots of fun things. There must have been 15 to 20 television sets, a pool table, and dart boards.
This is a huge plaza so there is plenty of parking. We checked out the Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranch thrift store while we were there. It was just a couple of shops from the pub.

This is the second time I have written this review. The last one just disappeared on me.
