I've gotten out plenty Dean. Their warm beer is an aquired taste, their food rather bland. However you will never be made to feel more at home when away from home as a yank in an English pub. The one's in the country are community watering holes where neighbors come together to talk about life and their own lives. Some with horses tied up out front, and many with dogs laying at the owners feet. They are wonderful places filled with fine people.

I don't doubt that for a second Pete.

I do, however, know of a couple of places similar to your description, with an American flavor, off the beaten path so to speak. Closer to urban settings the best we can seem to do is the "Sports Bar" where can be found no fewer than a dozen TV's each tuned in to a different game.... not much endearing about that

Hi Pete.
Thanks for your kind words about our pubs and the British people there has allways been
a strong bond between our two nations and long may it continue.
All the best Dave.
