Cool place - The Office bar scenes were filmed here so great if you're a fan of Hollywood and celebrities. And believe it or not, we ran into a celebrity here... D-list, but a celebrity nonetheless. If you ever listened to Howard Stern, his drunken flop boy Stuttering John drinks here daily. Come around 5 or 6pm when his prescriptions have kicked in with the Coors Light and you'll be ready for the party. Was shocked that he drove there - seemed WAY too intoxicated to be behind the wheel, but what do I know. Again, cool place and worth the visit!

Cute pub. Came in on a Wednesday night, it was trivia night so the place was packed, no tables available so we sat at the bar. It seems that's where the regulars sit as the bartender knew just about everyone that came in. We had a couple of beers and ordered some food. Had a Guinness and an Old Speckled Hen (one of my favorite British beers so happy to see they had it.) ordered some scotch eggs, fish and chips and sausage rolls with mushy peas. I appreciate the mushy peas. It's something I grew up with and really enjoy when it's offered at a pub. The sausage rolls were nice and buttery and flaky. The scotch egg dish was nice with some pickled onions, pickled beets and a small side salad included in the plate. My only issue which is a very small one was the mustard. It's in a jar. I had already used my knife so didn't want to stick it in there to get some mustard out of the jar. I was concerned about using it thinking others might not have been so concerned about sticking a used knife in there. Like I said very minor personal issue. I'd definitely come back k to try more of their British fare. Service is good, prices, fair and a nice pub ambiance.

Small British pub with lots of sports. It can get loud. Happy hour from 3-6pm offers basics. I ordered the chicken Pot pie which was ok- the crust was overly cooked and the filling was more watery than creamy. I didn't care for the mashed potatoes as they were very thick and dry. It helps to put the gravy on them which I did not. Husband got fish and chips and seemed to enjoy them. We ordered a burger for our daughter and she liked it but it looked basic.

They have some darts in a separate room. It got quite loud in the main seating area after 6pm. They do have a small sitting area in front and a patio out pack. Recommend street parking at the meters.

Service here is friendly and welcoming. Nice little spot around many others. Really has that pub feeling if you want to enjoy a good drink and food. The food is good tried the western burger, beef stew, and street tacos and must say it was quite delicious. They have other interesting items in their menu which I may have to do another trip to try them. Overall good experience.

A good place to have a good time, but they have a horrible customer. There's a drunk that yells about how he was once somebody. He's also upset that his once daughter is not his daughter anymore.

Second time here, so adding on to previous review. Last time we just got drinks and fries, this outing was about trying the authentic pub dishes. They were a hit, and almost TOO authentic. If you know British cooking, and I do, you know what I mean. If you aren't familiar with British pub food, read on....

We came in in on the Wednesday night before Thanksgiving, thinking it would be quieter. DOH! Little did we know, and have since learned, Thanksgiving Eve is one of the busiest bar nights of the year! So Pickwick's staff was hustling even harder than previously reported. They had a few large groups and a birthday bash in the dart room. We snagged the last spot for two and we're attended to immediately, with menus, set ups and drink orders. Stem cider still on tap, recommended previously when I was here, and still mighty delicious.

Food: Hubby went with a basic grilled cheese(came with fries) $13, and proclaimed it was delicious. I went with the Shepherd's Pie $16, and ordered a side of fries for $5 because they are THAT perfect. Here's where the authenticity plays in, the Shepherd's Pie was HOT, temperature wise and stated that way all through the eating, which is fantastic! However, like traditional English mince, this seasoned beef had very little seasoning. It was good, not salty, so that's good, but nothing really flavorful either. That's pretty traditional. I'm not knocking it, but a bit more seasoning would've gotten it a higher mark.

Services was great. Love to see everyone jumping in to help get guests served and bills closed for the night. Great atmosphere and lively pub.

Always a drunk stuttering john lurking around.. they do pour a decent pint. Food above average... Skoal

This pub just hosted our large group of 6 families and we had a great time. The owner personally made sure we were well taken care of and everyone in our party genuinely loved the food. The brisket sandwich was perfectly cooked and the side dipping sauce was delicious. Several of us smoke & bbq at home and the sandwich got high praise by all who tried it. My wife is from Philadelphia and our son had the Philly cheese and as far as west coast goes it ranks high. This is a great restaurant and so happy we chose this spot for a last minute event.
