Good spot for lunch. Bartender Zach is good guy. Burgers tasty and nice pretzel. Used to have great fish and chips, best in Torrance, but for some strange reason they pulled their best menu item, so they are just serving pub food now.

Zach is the best, great fish and chips(can’t wait till they are back, and great outdoor seating to enjoy a beer.

Zack is amazing and his knowledge of the product is awesome. That being said, the fish and chips were awesome but management took it off the menu. I say we protest this pub until they bring back the fish and chips. Bring back the fish baby !!!!

Beer is sub par, bangers and mash are terrible. Pretzel was decent.

We wanted to go for breakfast this place seemed close by and never heard of it so we thought we would give it a try. Couldn't figure it out at first but it's the "food portion" of this brewery YORKSHIRE SQUARE the food was great I had the French Toast and it was delicious. Even though the place was a pub dark with a dart board loud music just not what I was expecting for breakfast. There was one guy at the bar and we were the only other people in there Great Food just not what I was expecting for a breakfast place maybe if I needed a "hair if the dog" The service was wonderful but we had to pay bar tab to bartender and food tab to waiter Not sure how long they have been open but they still have a few kinks to work out

My British wife & I were excited to discover a British pub near us so we went yesterday and its not what we were expecting. They don't serve hot tea, my iced tea was so weak I could use it to water my tree outside my house and the chips looked like they went to McD's and brought them back and served them to me. These guys haven't a clue on what a British pub is all about. The waitress was pleasant and fast but the food was barely eatable. My wife ordered coffee and it was served in a to-go cup. REALLY?! That must be the unwelcome wagon! The fish plank was tasteless but the breading on it was good. Wife ordered a Full English and man did they cheapskate her. Two small strips of bacon and one sausage with just barely enough beans to be what it claimed to be. We asked to speak to the manager and he/she couldn't be troubled to come by.

I've driven by this place nearly every day for 3 years but didn't know it existed. This traditional English pub connected to a brewery was a wonderful stop on our way home from helping a friend move. I had the B.E.L.T.A sandwich and Tom had the Chicken and Waffle. Food was good for a pub - substituted chips for hasbrowns and was not disappointed. For those of you who have never had the luxury of traveling abroad - pour malt vinegar on everything potato and you won't be disappointed. Careful the XXX green hot sauce is HOT. They have TVs and are prepared for sports bar crowds.

Second time back--disappointing! Food quality has gone down. Fish and chips. Where do I start. The batter on the cod is not supposed to be dark or burned. It is supposed to be a light golden color. Never in the UK have I seen Fish look like this. The "chips" are merely Potato Wedges. Yorkshire Puddings were so burned they were inedible--again the goal is a light golden color. Bangers (sausages) tasted weird, definitely not like British. Sticky toffee is served cold, supposed to be warm. Ciders were just awful--really need to just get some good British Strongbow or Irish Magners from BevMo and call it a day. The food is very expensive and definitely not worth it. Last time I will come here unfortunately. Too good to be true and already on a downward spiral.

Took a trip down to Torrance to drink some beer as i haven't in a while. To my surprise Yorkshire has a kitchen. I decided to try a few items and was really disappointed with the food. It was ok as far as food goes. It's the type of food you only get once and forget about. And don't get me started on the prices. For the price i paid for one meal i could have eaten else where and got my moneys worth. Luckily the beer saved the day as I've been a fan of their cask ales. But the server mentioned they were not the same businesses just a kitchen inside a brewery. I will def be back but it won't be for the food. The brewery just has a nice home vibe to it that always attracts me. Wish it stayed just a brewery.

An amazing hidden gem in old town Torrance, most authentic English cuisine in all of Los Angeles !!! They now have an exceptional artisanal brunch!!!!!! Cask beers, mimosas and beer cocktails

Delicious fish and chips! That was one of the best I have had. My Dad got our order to go and after the 15 min drive home and the fish was still hot and not soggy after sitting that long-Amazing! Fries were a little cold but that's to be expected. We'll be back and plan to eat in the restaurant.

After writing a poor review about Snap Tin Eatery, we were invited by Chef Bruno to meet with him and discuss the menu. He really cares about his customers and explained that the food was British, but with a 'twist'. The tri-tip I complained about is cooked sous vide and then added to the gravy - which is made with beer. He tries to add beer to his dishes where he can - and it works. We sampled the beer cheese dip (delicious), the fries (awesome), and the beef pies, as it was "Pie and a Pint" night, which were very tasty. I finished with sticky toffee pudding and ice cream, which was really, really good! All in all, I have changed my opinion about Snap Tin, thanks to Chef Bruno - who is the nicest guy - and his explanation of his take on British food. Oh, and the beer is great! We'll be back!

Quaint eatery and hidden gem nestled within a charming British themed brewery. Loved the Scottish egg, deep fried in an unexpected seasoned bread encasement nestled on a bed of arugula drizzled with a light vinegarette. The Snap Tin fish filets were well prepared, each in a different beer batter. Choose between skinny fries or the preferred triple processed large hand cut steak fries which are crispy and tastes great with the lemony homemade tarter sauce and sweet malt vinegar. The Shepard's Pie was fantastic, the chunks of beef so tender it seemed it was sous-vide. The rich beer sauce was complemented by diced carrots, onions and herbs, and the pie topped with hand piped mashed potatoes. The Toffee Pudding presented a dense cake like texture served warm on a bed of liquid caramel sauce, and topped with toffee pieces, a scoop of vanilla ice cream and mint leaf. It was a decadent delight that I would certainly order again. Overall the chef here is creative and there's an attention to detail and a willingness to take risks that were surprising, delightful and much appreciated. The attentive service and friendly conversation added a warmth to the dining experience. Come for the beers, but moreover come for the food

Good food. We had beer battered fishes and chips with "proper Fries" recommended by Executive Chef Bruno. And it was the best fries ever!!! Yorkshire pudding was alright. A bit too burn for me. Very relax and casual setting! Will go back for that fries!
