Shalom to y’all Karaōke junkies my name is DR. Z. Last night when I arrived in St. Augustine from Charlotte, N. C. I was happily surprised to surf the net and find a Karaōke joint hosting Karaōke on a Sunday night. What I found was one of the most beautiful and friendliest Karaōke locations in the South East United States. The food was better than average and the kitchen stayed open late. I ordered Traditional British fare, fish and chips at 1 am and the fish was awesomely good and pipen hot with a good amount of fries. The table service was good and prompt through out the night. The other three things that were very memorable was the superb Karaōke stage lighting and sound system was the finest pub set up I had ever seen. It made me feel good to step up and sing a few songs. What a blast I had. Secondly the DJ was very accommodating, he found every song I requested. Lastly the other singers and patrons were happy and friendly. I definitely will be coming back every time I am anywhere near St. Augustine since they Karaōke seven nights a week. It truly was really a great find. Shalom y’all. Until next time. Tonight my wife Jodi and I will be back home in West Kendall in Miami singing Karaōke at our favorite home town Karaōke spot the Blue Martini. Karaōke is so much fun. We sing every where we are. I can’t wait to sing y’all a love song. Jodi and I met singing Karaōke early last year and got married six months later. So get out and sing America.

August 2015. It seems that every time I have tried to revisit the British Pub it gets worse. Last time topped them all. 1st Buyer Beware! If the bartender isn’t singing or taking care of friends u just might get a drink… you’ll have to beg for it. When u pay, b sure to count your money and know your tab. The prices change .a lot. And the bartender feels he’s entitled to take his own tip! But if u want to Kareoke… Uh u might have to wait 2.5 hours and give up like I did. ASSHOLEPLACE. It’s not a business, it’s someone’s home who is particular about the guest. Don’t get trapped.

If we had only gone Thursday night, my review would have been different. My husband and I were in St Augustine for a mini get-away. We enjoy karaōke, and we found this place. Our experience Thursday night, April 16, was great! The lady who ran the karaōke was very friendly, and she ran a fair rotation of the singers. We stayed until closing and left with a favorable impression. The next night, we went to see a band for a couple of hours, and then we left early just so we could do some more karaōke. Big mistake! We should have just stayed and watched the band all night. We came in and saw a different KJ. This time it was an older blonde woman with a horrible attitude. I put a couple of songs up for us, and after quite a while, I asked her about how many singers there were. She was irritated that I had the nerve to check on that. We noticed she kept putting up two men repeatedly: one’s name was Cory, and I’m not sure who the other one was, but we’d see them over and over and over. Obviously her close friends. My husband finally got fed up. He went and asked her about the repeats, and she denied doing it. We went to pay our tab and leave. The bartender told us that we were not the first to complain about that particular KJ, and he recommended we call the next day to speak to the owners about it. My husband called the next day and was told no owners were around after all. The woman he spoke to took a message, and that was the last we heard. So if you come into this place expecting to sing, make sure that miserable blonde woman isn’t behind the sound equipment, because she plays favorites big-time! Update: the owner contacted me and told me they’d had repeated problems with that karaōke lady and had terminated her employment. Based on that, I am upping their rating to what it should have been with the good karaōke lady we enjoyed the first night.

Great little dive bar. Karaōke. Fun bartender, cody, and fun crowd. Visited here on my trip to St. Augustine. Not too over-priced drinks. And parking is amazing! Especially considering how parking downtown was! Will definitely return.

We were only here for a drink while we waited our turn to get in to Osteen’s next door. Bartender poured our drinks while holding the microphone and belting out karaōke. A bit smoky but worth it. This place is awesome.

This is the place to wait for your name to be called at Osteen’s Restaurant next door, you gotta be here to understand. This is a very typical local bar & pub where the locals mix with the outa towners as they wait to dine on seafood next door. There are a number of TV’s all were tuned to the world cup and we watched Germany vs Ghana which was an exciting match. The BP has all the requisite beers on tap and a friendly husband and wife couple who double as owners and bartenders. Stop by and try a slice of Americana St Augustine style, you might even hear tall tales from those who say they swam with a 500lb. tuna, we did.

The sounds of karaōke from across the street lured us from the safe confines of our hotel room. Smoke wafted out like a technicolor strobe lit version of Mount Doom. Inside the patrons seemed to be enjoying themselves immensely, and we immediately relaxed… although that could have been the second hand nicotine. Honestly we would have passed this little hole in the wall by, but location, location, location; we could have hit the place with a shoe from our room. We were drunk so it missed. The beer was cold, the Karaōke surprisingly high tech(seriously) and the people watching extremely enjoyable. Unlike so many of the polished chains you encounter traveling, this place had soul. While definitely more of a local’s joint than tourist attraction if you happen to be stumbling by and hear the siren call of a drunken choir we all love in that special moment of inebriation, give this place a shot. But if the second-hand smoke is a problem, pass it by. Or maybe listen from outside!

My boyfriend and I were visiting St. Augustine for our anniversary, and were looking for a place to have a few beers after dinner. Trying to avoid the more touristy spots we’d passed by earlier that day, we made the short trip over the bridge and immediately were drawn to the simply named«British Pub,» which seemed pretty straightforward. It was Monday night, which features a live cover band, and I must note that my boyfriend and I are both not usually fans of cover bands, but this band was pretty good. The pub is nothing particularly fancy, with typical neon beer signs, promotional posters, and numerous soccer jerseys and scarves decorating the walls. What is notable, however, would be the big parking lot next door(from what I understand is a rarity in St. Augustine) and the cleanest pub/bar restroom I have ever been into. I mean it. What truly made this visit so great though, was chatting with the owner, Dave, who is British, funny, and everything you would expect a pub owner to be. My boyfriend and I had a great time hearing some of his stories about St. Augustine, and he made a few restaurant recommendations for us, which turned out to be spectacular! I am very grateful for that, because it’s hard to choose places to eat in a city like St. Augustine, which only has a small handful of unique spots for foodies. We had some Boddington’s and Harp drafts, which I believe were $ 6. If you are in the area and looking for a no-frills night of drinks and great conversation, I highly recommend the English Pub. My boyfriend and I both left saying if we were locals, that would definitely be a place we would frequent!

Located right on A1A just a short drive over the Bridge of Lions, the British Pub is a fun little joint with plenty of parking. There is a HUGE lot right next door, and I had NO problem finding a place to park. Stopped in here on a Saturday night while karaōke was taking place, and had a pretty fun time! It’s not a huge joint, but pretty good size, plenty of room to hang with your friends and meet some new people. The bar itself has about 10 stools, and there is about 8 tables spread out throughout the bar. In the back, there is an incredibly comfortable couch, and a few more tables, although those were cleared out to make room for the karaōke equipment. Soccer jerseys lined the walls, and there were a few flat screen TVs showing some sporting events, and some showing the lyrics for your karaōke song. Got in on a Saturday night, and the place was pretty full, but I was still able to find a place to sit and have a few pints. Had a chance to talk with the owner(who of course is British), and he is a class act. Lot of fun to talk to, great guy, and he runs a great place. As I looked around, I noticed everybody was having a great time, it’s a great atmosphere, everybody is relaxed, having fun, and enjoying some pints. I’m not sure what nights they have karaōke, but they have a TON of songs on there, and it was pretty fun. The music doesn’t drown out everything else in the bar, like other karaōke places I’ve been to, but it’s loud enough for everyone to sing along /make fun of you if you suck. Overall, I had a great time here. There’s nothing overly amazing that could make me rate this higher, it’s just a nice pub, with a great atmosphere, that you would enjoy. I’m not sure if I could spend an entire evening here getting smashed, but it’s definitely worth a stop in sometime. You could have one or two beers on your way to your favorite joint, or just stop in sometime for a pint or two to relax. I had fun and will definitely be back.
