British shops in LA / Burbank ?
 
My son is going to school (college) in Burbank LA (we live in GA).

We are going to visit him in Burbank, we were wondering if there's any British shops / pubs or anything in or near Burbank (the pubs for British Food!!).. He called us yesterday and says he misses his "sunday roast" :)

If not, I'll cook him one in his small "flat"

There is a British pub on Burbank Blvd next to Woodman called Robin hood and it has a british shop next door to it. They do a great roast here. :beer: :D

Santa Monica has the most

Kings Head: 2nd/Santa Monica
Britannia:3rd/Santa Monica
Tudor House tearoom & import shop:2nd/Santa Monica
Continental shop: Wilshire/17th
O'Briens: Wilshire/23rd

Then there is some in the San Fernando Valley
Fox & Hounds: Studio City
Pickwicks??
Robin Hood??


King's Head is probably the best location, you can sit outside 2 blocks from the beach have a pint then stroll down the pier or 3rd street promenade to see street performers and shops.
PM me if you want as I live a few blocks from many of the places in Santa Monica

PS If you do stop by the King's Head it is worth strolling around the corner to the Tudor House Tearoom, import shop and bakery.
The imported stuff is a bit pricey but they also have their own on site bakery where they make their own goods such as;

Sausage rolls
pork pies
Cornish pasties
Eccles cakes
Jam & treacle tarts
various meat and curry pies
scones
gingerbread men
bandenburg cake
rum balls
trifle
almond slices

and quite a few other things

I wouls second 'the kings head' for british beers and pub food, 'ok' sunday roast.....

the nearest british shop to burbank i know of is 'Brits' in pasadena - which is a pub resturant but i would not reccomend it as the food is awful!!
