Al way had a little Love/Hate with Friar Tuck. But location often won out to meet a friend for a quick drink, but normally not food. Now under new ownership, I went back for dinner. Started with a house salad. Nothing really special, but works. So....actually I'm a sucker for shredded lettuce! That and a good Blue Cheese and I'm happy!Followed by the Cottage Pie. Presentation is a five! Being picky the mash on top looks great, but are a little over done and dry. However, not bad.

My wife and I had been going here for the last few years (we're snowbirds) and were overwhelmed by the huge fish portion. We returned this year and were very disappointed. The fish portion shrunk to about half its previous size. It was good but no longer "legendary" as stated on the menu. Probably won't be coming back. Word must be out because there used to be lines to get in but at 6pm on a Friday the place was pretty much empty. Too bad.

Cute little British pub. My husband and I dropped in one evening when I was craving fish & chips. We didn't realize that they have so much fun events but we instantly were so excited about the schedule of events displayed when we came in. We definitely want to come for a trivia night, it seems like it would be such a fun place to attend an event. The service was pretty slow considering there was such a small number of people in the restaurant. I got fish & chips obviously and my husband ordered a ham and cheese toastie. He liked his sandwich! My fish was HUGE and tasty but I was disappointed with the thickness and sogginess of the batter on the bottom. It fell apart so bad while I was eating so I ended up having to scoop it up with a fork to eat it. We really want to come back for Sunday roast now that we know it's a thing.

The standard has dropped dramatically since our last visit. The fish and chips were not good. The chips were burnt and not many of them, then the fish, which used to be thick cuts of cod, were questionable, and well overcooked in oil that was beyond requiring changing. The fish was razor thin, plus could not be separated from the batter due to overlooking. For $20 each, it was not worth anything close to that, and Culver's, nearby, a fast food restaurant, cooks much better fish and chips, albeit smaller portions, but center cut cod loins, all of which is delightfully edible. Sorry Friar Tuck, but no more food for us until the standard improves back to original.

I miss what this restaurant used to be, but the new owners are extremely unprofessional people who can't take a simple comment about an item without blocking the person. They have owned the place for a month and it is already going downhill. If you're looking for a decent British restaurant go to Magical Meat Boutique in Mount Dora. Delicious AND the owners are adults and not a couple of unprofessional children.

Authentic and very good British pub food. Fish and chips are spot on. Full English breakfast is authentic and delicious. Great atmosphere. Terrific service. Friar Tuck has a full bar. There's a small shop with imported British foods and snacks. Next time we'll go for the traditional Sunday Roast. Look forward to it.

VERY VERY SAD.... went here May 1st and about 12 people waiting to get in at Noon. Nobody inside, doors locked. we all waited until 12:20pm but dispite banging on the door several times NO ONE opened. From their website notation, seems they open when they feel like it. Definitely not good to grow loyal customers. Every one left and went 4 miles south on 27 to another British Pub, called Best of British Cafe and had a great time. unfortunately, The Friar Tuck is very unreliable on opening times. Looking through the windows, Their grocery section was empty. Are they going out of business? I would suggest calling before wasting your time going here.

The people are great!! I really enjoy them. The service however was amazingly horrible. I literally sat in a dining room with 4 other sat tables. Four servers walked past me multiple times. I couldn't even get a glass of water none of them stopped despite me looking parched, starved, and longing for attention. I finally moved to the completely empty bar and had to wave down the hostess that originally sat me. I wanted Scott eggs and a Donner kabob. They didn't have either!!! Wth!! Frustration on top of frustration. Settled for a sausage roll which turned out to be a reheated frozen version. It was just ok. Ordered the fish and chips with a side of curry sauce for my fries. Sadly the curry sauce was the best part!! The fish was good size and the top half was crispy and delicious. The bottom half seemed to have been set IN grease to drain as opposed to on a rack for the grease to drain of. It sat on top of the greasy AF limp chips (French fries). When finally asked if everything was ok, I asked for the fries to be fried crisp, like a chip should be. He said the deep fryers were off and mine was literally the last order they cooked. Frankly, it should have never been sold. I tried to order a dessert to go and was told the kitchen was closed. It never even dawned on him to let me know the kitchen was going to close and ask if I wanted anything else. Extremely disappointing visit. I might try them again mid-week, but will never be back on a Sunday.

Went for lunch today. First time back in over eighteen months. My wife and I shared the Scotch Egg starter $12. The sausage meat used, tasted bland, so not to our taste. Just a little aside here both of us try to avoid excessive salt in food. However these Scotch Eggs seemed to be devoid of any. We both had the fish and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce, which we both enjoyed. :) The portions were large. The service was very good and attentive. Would reccomend for fish and Chips.

What an embarrassment to the British community. We drove 90 minutes to get there. They had what was advertised as a "Christmas Dinner" for $34.99 that was more a Thanksgiving dinner based on the menu. You could also order British food off a meager menu. A quite expensive menu, I might add. We opted for the British fare since my husband is British and his mom is a wonderful cook. We ordered "Magical Mushrooms" as a STARTER. After waiting half an hour, I called the waitress over to make sure everything wasn't going to come out all at once. She confessed that she forgot to put the order in for the mushrooms. She asked if we would like them after the main course, no charge. My husband said yes, I would have passed on them. We both ordered the steak pie. It was the smallest, sorryest looking thing. It came with one small plop of mashed potatoes that were room temp, about a table spoon of peas and two carrot rounds. Room temp. The meat mixture in the pie tasted ok but wasn't very hot. The pastry was flaky and tasted ok. There were also two little carrot "coins" in this. The entire meat mixture was tasteless. I took about three bites and left the rest. Out come these three, nice sized, mushrooms with a ton of melted cheese over them. The cheese was cold and chewey. What ever "magic" these mushrooms was supposed to have, disappeared. They were cold, barely room temp, and tasted terrible. We both had one & left the largest. I asked for a dessert menu and it looked impressive. Several items we were familiar with and excited to try. The Spotted Dick was the size of a ping pong ball, drowned in tasteless custard sauce. I had the Bread Pudding. Again, rather small serving for the $7 & drowned in the same watery, tasteless sauce. Oh, my husband had 1 pint of Kilkenny Beer and I had a small flute of Prosecco. We paid $71 something plus a 25 percent tip. I was disappointed. No wonder the place was nearly empty on the Saturday night before Christmas. Oh, and, the "live" music was a guy on a saxaphone playing along to canned music.
