Perfect spot to watch Premier League matches on weekend mornings. Fish and chips , and Shepherds pie were excellent. Mimosa and Bloody Mary drink specials. You may need reservations. We have been turned away for soccer games- all places were reserved in advance, bar stools too!

We were here for a world cup match, there were number of screens throughout the restaurant to watch games. The atmosphere was amazing throughout the match. They had limited menu during the world cup matches, nachos were good and empanadas was little disappointing. Fries were better and the bratwurst sandwich was little too mustardy but was pretty decent. Its a great place to get a beer and watch a game.

De-licious! A great English pub between CPCC and Novant Presbyterian hospital. The food was scrummy and our waitress made excellent recommendations. A definite must- do-again eatery. The bubble and squeak was out-of-this-world tasty!

Service was good. Buffalo chicken & waffles was good. Not sure why they call it sliders. See picture. I guess it was served like a club. They had s large party do they were unable yo serve iced tea.

Fish and Chips were excellent. Light crisp batter and flaky halibut. The shrimp was not a favorite because it was overly battered.

My first time here, met a group for dinner before a show uptown. I got the blackened salmon BLT which was very good. They had $4 mimosas all day on Saturday, so I got a couple of pineapple ones. They were very yummy. Prices of food was pretty reasonable too. Customer service was great, very friendly staff. I’ll definitely come back again.

I’ve gone to Big Ben’s since it used to be in a house. It always had the best atmosphere- even when it moved to the South End. This was my husband’s and my go to date place. I moved away from the area and hadn’t been there since they moved to this location. Very disappointing. Place was dirty, not the same vibe as before, and music way too loud for 5 p.m. I was so disappointed. Definitely won’t be back.

I was born and bred in England, and this was the only place in Charlotte advertising a cornish pasty. Impossible parking, all paid meters with exorbitant prices. The two assigned places for. The building parking lot says employee parking (so the guest pays for parking , while the employees park for free, something wrong with that). While the server and bartender are very friendly, they are not British and have never even been there. The website menu is completely out of date and has been since October (it's now April). So no more cornish pasties and no scotch eggs. That was VERY disappointing. The bangers are from Sysco (accordingtoour waitress), not even a local butcher! I asked about cider on the menu and she said they had Magners only, and whole pints not halves, then after we'd ordered I saw Angry Orchard by bottle, so again, lack of education). We ordered the steak and mushroom pies and a smashbuger. Our adult daughter said the smash burger was really good, but it came with frozen seasoned fries (again, not a British thing). The meat pies came with steamed veggies and a generous scoop of mashed potatoes with a delicious brown gravy. The pies, however, are a different thing. They are pre-made (because I asked for no mushrooms). Nice puff pastry, but the filling had so little "steak" or mushrooms in them, and the gravy inside the pie was awful. Lots of TV screens inside, and they do show Premier League. Overall assessment from a Brit, don't go there for the food, but the bar scene. We sat outside, and that was very pretty, watching the trams go by. Based on the fact that we were there for food, I would not recommend this restaurant (sorry). The table next to us ordered Haddock (no cod) and said that was the worth ordering, although they were eating wings.

I really wanted to LOVE Big Ben but it just fell short for me. We came after fasting for a blood draw all day and were famished and this was the closest place to the lab that also looked fun. The Good: it’s a pretty fun atmosphere to watch a game - especially more European sports like soccer or rugby. Lots of TVs above the bar. It’s also a chill place to just have a drink and they have a decent pour of Guinness. The Meh: the food was pretty average at best for me. I got fish and chips and the fish was super dry inside while the batter was very soggy. I didn’t get any of that lovely crunch fish and chips should have like the ones at Workman’s Friend or Ri Ra. The fries were also very bland. Our server was friendly enough but hard to get anything out of. I wanted more vinegar than what was on my plate but when I asked for vinegar she said “there’s some on your plate there” and walked away before I could finish my sentence. It was about 4:30 pm so it was before they got busy. Sigh. The Bad: nothing really I guess I’d probably come back to watch a game, have a drink, and maybe try some other food but there are other places I’d rather try/go back to first.

We went to have lunch today. There is apparently something going on for the game. No one to direct you or anything. We sat at a table outside, waited 30 minutes no service or anything. The music was loud and obnoxious. We asked about a server to the bartender and they just said someone will come eventually. We left. Management/Owners need to make an event like this known or get more order.

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. The owners/co-owners of whatever they like to call themselves the 3 guys like to sit in their corner of the restaurant. We had went to this place to watch the World Cup and it was an amazing game, service was great for it being pretty crowded up until it was time to pay… our bill was $221 we paid in CASH and put down $250 and the rest plus extra was left for tips for our server, $45 for tip (who in the end was not so great like we thought). The rest of us go outside while my 2 other family members give the server the cash as we didn’t want to leave $250 right on the table. One of my family members go into the bathroom to use it before we all head out and at this point I’m waiting outside with the rest of them and we get a call from my family member who left the bathroom saying they won’t let her go because the cash is fake (which was not). The server grabbed my family member BY THE SHIRT put her hands RIGHT ON HER, which she had no right to. And the owners are just laughing in the corner taking no accountability as they realized it was real when they checked it with the pen which they should’ve the first time before accusing us. I don’t know if it was a racial discrimination because no one else had a hard time but the owners were being loud when saying the money “was fake” and others around heard it too making it very embarrassing. We called to complain and they checked the cameras of the server putting her hands on my family member and then they apologize and tell us our next meal will be on them. But we aren’t accepting it.
