The Scene
A quaint outdoor patio lets patrons enjoy a cool evening breeze or warm summer nights while having a drink. Sundays feature free live jazz near the fountain for a soothing end to the week. Inside, the bar is flanked by a dartboard at one end and a banquet room with large tables and TV screens at the other. The jukebox offers plenty of rock, from classic Cars and Pretenders to progressive Pixies and Jeff Buckley.
The Draw
Groups of long-haired rockers quench their thirsts and wind down after a sweaty string of encores. Low-key locals and broody romantics add flavor to the human mix. Imported brews and cider on tap help patrons wash down a variety of British and Yankee food. British munchies include fish-and-chips, traditional bangers and mash, Scotch eggs, sausage rolls and cheese plates.

I've been here a few times with friends, and only for drinks (they have Cider on tap!!!), but after trying the food I gotta say...don't do it! The food wasn't good. At all. My burger was not cooked correctly and my friends fish tasted like it was old. And to top it off we waited for almost 15 minutes before the server came back so we could tell her. Come only for drinks and hang out. Don't bother with the food!

Upon arrival (they do not take reservations), I walked through the courtyard as it filled up with the alternative crowd and b-list folks, all smoking. It looked like a marine layer. Our waitress, was obviously overwhelmed with her burden. After throwing down our menu, she returned some 12 minutes later for the wine order - then it was another 8 before we could get her attention to order the food. Everyone is nice, but nice can't make up for the awful food. Its British pub, but worse. My chicken picatta was some sort of odd chicken breast shape; spongy, and the sauces was basically melted butter. The giant head of broccoli that came with it - well it was bigger than the chicken breast. The desert was decent, but who can mess up strawberries and whip cream. I will not be going back, no part of this place is worth it.

Its Friday night the 25th of July, and my girl and I have a movie to see at the Arclight on Sunset and Vine. So, while we wait for the show, we decide to have a few drinks at this lofty dive of a bar "The Cat and Fiddle" on Sunset Blvd. I'ld been there before and it was a pretty nice place a few years ago, but it must be under new management, because the way we were treated was infuriating and disrespectful. After being interrogated and tattooed from the not-so-scottish male door staff wearing kilts. We proceeded to the bar where the wannabe actress bartender was slow, pretentious, and stared us down for no reason whatsoever. We were given the wrong drinks, and then when we asked for the RIGHT drinks, they tried to rip us off for the difference between the two drinks we purchased. I asked for my money back, and the bartenders managed to pocket a dollar from my $20, before we started to get angry and decided to leave. I asked to see the manager, which emerged and tried to explain away the situation, of course siding with her bartending staff. She made no attempt to reconcile, and even implied that we were to blame in some way. Profanities were exchanged, fists were about to fly, and a general panic for the doors was eminent. All within a span of 20 minutes. Absolutely horrible experience! I wouldn't recommend this shoddy oasis if it were in the darkest, hottest pit of hell.
