Lion & Eagle English Pub: Reviews & Ratings
In my search for the best fish & chips in Boca, I have finally found it. Went in for lunch and can not wait to return. The bartender was very nice and we were the only ones at the location. Typically I’d run away from a lunch place like that but the fish and chips reviews were so high I needed to try it. Very happy I stayed.
Love this little English pub, real English football on the screens and best English breakfast I’ve had in 10 years of being a local. Great service from the attentive bartender. I’m definitely going back ...
We stopped at this bar for a quick dinner on a Saturday. It is a very small pub (they only have 3-4 tables both inside and in the outdoor small patio), and it was almost empty, but I really loved it! It is a very unpretentious place, yet it has a true English pub’s vibe. They have a full bar and great beers. The menu is very limited but everything is cheap. I have never been a fan of Fish and Chips, but after reading several positive reviews about the ones made here, I decided to give it a try: they are so good indeed! If that wouldn’t be enough: since the portion was huge, I brought home almost half of it to eat for lunch the following day. The leftovers re-heated in the oven tasted even better than the day before! The bartender was great, and also the few people there (you could tell they were regulars) were very welcoming. I also like the fact that the place is dog friendly. If you like European soccer: they show A LOT of matches (I understand they even open the pub at 6am, if needed!). I hope to be able to go one day to watch one, but I will go certainly back for more Fish and Chips anyways!
Fun place, alt atmosphere....very welcoming. Open mic was a little quirky, with a host more interested in himself than others, but I'd go back again.
Man United game is on ! Best fish and chips in Florida and beyond. Malt vinegar is placed on the table before you have to ask. Proper ! Thick pieces too.
Amazing service. Very small place, the focus is the bar with loud sports on every tv so if that's what you are looking for it's perfect! The food was excellent.
I lived in the U.K. for almost a year and was hardline addicted to fish and chips. I have had 2 fish and chip meals out of the U.K. that were as good as the real English stuff, one was at Disney Epcot and the second was at the Lion & Eagle English Pub! It was great and the Sheppards Pie Fry dish was an original twist on a classic!
I thoroughly enjoyed my first visit here. Great English pub with friendly staff and a welcoming owner. The fish and chips were tasty, and loved being able to order a Black Velvet. The prices were reasonable and there was a fun crowd for happy hour. I definitely recommend.

One of the standout offerings is the much-lauded fish and chips.

The vibe is entirely unpretentious, which aligns beautifully with the pub's authentic roots; there's no frill here, just honest food and hearty drinks.
The menu may be limited, but what it lacks in variety, it more than makes up for in quality. Adri noted, “everything is cheap” without compromising taste.
