What User doesn't like about The British Bobby:
Nice decor and service. Had fish and chips . The fish was a bit greasy. The chips were mostly overcooked end bits and not the chunkier chips as in the UK. The food was hot and well priced but I would not choose that dish again. View all feedback. What User likes about The British Bobby:

read moreBritish Bobby is a charming fish & chips spot with mixed reviews. While some diners enjoyed the crisp batter and home fries, others had unpleasant experiences with overcooked food and children in the service industry. Despite this, some appreciated the friendly staff and tasty dishes, like the halibut and meat pie. The kitschy British decor added to the ambiance. However, the recent closure of the mall where the restaurant was located may impact future visits. Overall, British Bobby seems to be a hit-or-miss experience, with some finding it a delightful dining destination and others left disappointed.
