Over the past two days I’ve played roughly 10 hours of Destiny 2, a video game in which players travel through space, marveling at how things can feel so familiar.

Nicollet Mall. Minneapolis, MN5. Love the lawn bowling upstairs. What a great venue with great views of the downtown area. The outdoor seating upstairs is nice- -especially on a warm summer day.
The food was average. Note: Food in London is now excellent, and pubs with poor food do not make it.) However, Brits can get away with this as the beer selection is very good and the unique venue make this a "must see" in Minnie!!! Great service- -- eat elsewhere! Lawn bowling rocks! A comedy of errors!
Server recommended Guinness Pot Roast. Sounded great, I'm in! However when our meal came, mine was wrong. Runner seemed confused.
Told her what I ordered, she left and server said sorry it will be just a few minutes. Find her at her wait station, "I'm sorry just a few more minutes." Returns a few minutes later with my order, it's luke- warm. Hmm, did someone forget about you pot roast? Seems like it! Tell my server it's barely warm, I'm not eating this. Runs away in a hurry, comes back 5 minutes later, "Sir, is there something else I can get you? Chicken Pot Pie?" Yes I say, anything hot." Comes back 1.
Its been almost an hour now since I sat down. It's hot so I'm good to go. I express my deep dissatisfaction and tell her waiting as long as I have for my meal is unexceptionable. She says my meal is comped.
She does apologize sincerely, and I can't be too hard in her, but somewhere in this establishment, there's a lack of communication and that needs to be addressed. Manager comes by to apologize, my meal is comped. We are busy tonight so that may have contributed to the mix up, but that's no excuse." Damn right it's not. Was nice to get comp dessert, so thank you for that.
I really wanted to like this place. Setting is cool and seems lively and fun. Family recommended it and it was a huge let down and I don't think I would ever come back when I'm in town next and I won't be recommending it to family and friends. PS - "Chicken Pot Pie" should be renamed, "Potato Pot Pie"! Great bar for some excellent British beers on draft.
If you can get the attention of a server. Our 2. 0- 2. 5 minutes wait turned into a 5.
Food was horrible, or at least what I had that night. Having spent a lot of time in the UK, I found that most pubs offer some of the best Indian foods, so I tried the Brit's Pub's Chicken Tikka Marsala.. BAD CHOICE. Beyond tasteless the serving size was small, the balti bowl was filled with gummy bland rice and then topped with a few pieces of chicken with some type of sauce but it was far from any Tikka Masala I've ever tasted in the US, UK, or Asia. Several of the folks I was having dinner with was impressed with their entrees as well. The fish and chips were dripping with grease. You really can't ever go wrong with Brit's! It's always a great place to watch sporting events, go lawn bowling, hang out on the rooftop, eat, drink, etc.
I've spent many mornings having brunch here and just as many nights having dinner/drinks and I can't say that I've ever had a bad time. I've also had a couple big work events here too and the staff/service has been great. Brit's has a parking ramp right next to it, but it's probably not the cheapest option for parking. There's street parking all around, and some that metered parking that's free on Sunday's.
There's also a few other parking ramps littered around that's fairly affordable depending on the time of day as well. If you're coming for a large sporting event, I'd definitely advise to come as early as possible, because seating definitely fills up quickly. The Bootlegger is one of my favorite drinks. As for food, the Scotch Eggs and Fish n' Chips are some of my favorites in the whole cities. Brit's Pub is the type of place that can be all things to all people because it has a little bit of everything. I have participated in corporate events here catered by Brits and played some intense rounds of lawn bowling. I have also attended a Graduation party here, catered by Brits and from time to time have casually had a drink or two for happy hour while watching a game projected on their jumbo screens on one of their patios.
The set- up is really unique. Every time I go here I find some new area in the place to try out and enjoy my time.
My personal favorite area is the third floor patio if it's not being reserved for a private event. The enclosed patio with an open roof with beams is super fun and airy. The drinks are consistently strong so I know I'll get my money's worth.
Right in downtown Minneapolis, Brit's serves reasonably priced, casual dining with a menu tilted towards English and Irish foods (bangers and mash). The decor recalls an English pub. The food is good but the service can sometimes be spotty despite the staff's efforts. Wide choice of beers including Guiness and British ales.
Soups, salads, appetizers and desserts are available. Upstairs is outdoor lawn bowling (very British) and viewing in a space that's usually packed on a nice day.
Ditto for the charming outdoor seating right on the Nicollet Mall across from Peavey Plaza and Orchestra Hall. Street and off street parking available. I want to like Brit's more than I did. The atmosphere is cool with the antique furniture, the outdoor seating and the top bar. It's a cool spot to be in the city - and it really makes you feel like you aren't in Minneapolis.
But the food is mediocre. We tried a few items: the Kings Wings, club sandwich and crispy chicken wrap. They all were fine, but they also felt like what you could make at home.
Their indoor menu had a lot of good options, but you can't order some items outdoors. I will likely go back at some point, but there are plenty of places I'd rather pick. Nice high ceilings made it a comfortable and bright pub like atmosphere. The friendly service was matched with delicious food and cold beers. Start with the fried mac and cheese.
I am still dreaming about it. The table went crazy over the fish and chips. Not in the mood for all the grease? Try the mildly spiced chicken tikka.
Awesome spot for anyone who is an anglophile like me. Feels like you are transported across the pond. Reasonably priced drinks, great happy hour deals, classic pub fare. All and all, a consistent place that can fit any mood. We got the fish and chips. The server said the fish potions are about 4 oz, so we got the 2 piece. Both the guy with me and myself didn't finish it, it was a lot of food!
The fries were good, not too greasy, very potato- y. The fish came out piping hot, crispy batter and flakey inside. The service was good as well and the environment is a fun pub space. I'd go here again. Solid pub - decent fish & chips plus a good beer menu. Where do I start. Brits pub has a lot of character.
I have been coming here for over 1. They have an A + outdoor patio / seating area. Drinks are good. Ask for Snake Bite. They try to sport and extremely BRIT Feel.
Which is not bad. They have Lawn bowling and exciting BRIT menu such as a Bangers AND Mash, Fish and Chips and CTM. This time I had. 1. Curry and CHips - not bad. Fries with poser curry sauce : ) Extra sauce is ~ $3. Scotch eggs - For $1.
Tandoori Chicken S/W - not bad; but for $1. Overall Atmosphere / feel - they are BRIT; They show BRIT sports - Rugby, Football, Cricket when important games are on - YAY!; Outdoor Patio - amazing; Movie nights; Bowling green; SHakespeare etc. All in All a great spot to lay back and chill! Have been stopping here for years when in the cities. A go- to place that never disappoints. An American spin on an English pub. British pub architecture and trimmings throughout.
Maybe British pubs are similar today but know that there are tv's everyplace so it's essentially an English sports bar. A wonderful menu with a mix of pub appetizers and entrees (British, not so American). Food is good and the service quick and friendly.
Outdoor seating available on the roof or along the street in front.
All the Details and Secrets We Spotted in the Latest Star Wars: The Last Jedi Footage. D2. 3 is upon us this weekend, and with it, a new behind- the- scenes glimpse at the next chapter in the Star Wars saga.
But although the movie didn’t offer us a full trailer, what we did get was still jam- packed with little hints and clues as to what’s to come for Luke, Leia, Rey, Finn, and Poe. The opening salvo of the reel gives us a few intriguing shots of sets, locations, and characters.
There’s a great big rocky set—which we’ll see later is actually home to a massive pool of water—the bridge of a Star Destroyer under construction, huts on Luke’s new home of Ahch- To, and rather spectacularly, Chewbacca getting his hair done. Some very slick looking speeders blanketed by the sun. Judging by some of the things we see later on in this reel, these appear to be for the glitzy streets of Canto Bight, a casino world that both Finn (John Boyega) and new character Rose Tico (Kelly Marie Tran) venture to at some point in the movie.
A poor camera man gets doused in red soil—meaning that this is presumably Crait, the mineral planet from the first trailer and seemingly the site of a really major battle at some point in the film, judging by some of the character’s we’ll later see filming stuff on this new planet. Rey (Daisy Ridley) pops up from behind a camera, giving us a good look at the hairstyle so secret it somehowbecame a months- long Star Wars rumor. Night on Ahch- To.. Luke would maybe invite Chewie to stay in his home, but apparently not, as the Wookiee goes solo camping with the Falcon. When he’s not stealing Poe’s clothes, Finn seems like at some point he’ll be donning a Resistance pilot flight suit.
It’s not the orange of Poe and his fellow X- Wing pilots, so maybe Finn suits up to use one of those big gunships we saw in the first trailer’s space battle. One of the most mysterious, intriguing shots of the whole reel is this one we see of General Leia (the late, ever- great Carrie Fisher). She’s not on a bridge of a Resistance ship as we’ve seen repeatedly already, but instead looking distraught on the grey, cracked surface of a planet. It doesn’t quite look like Crait, and it doesn’t look like what we’ve seen of Ahch- To either, so could it be a new world altogether?
Our first look at a pivotal scene that’s presumably from the earliest moments of the film, knowing that it picks up immediately after the end of The Force Awakens: Rey returns the Skywalker family lightsaber to its former owner, Luke (Mark Hamill). Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) goes business formal, keeping the helmet but ditching his pleated robes for a First Order officer’s tunic and a new, totally- trying- to- be- grandpa cloak. In fact, there’s been a rumor that it might literally be Vader’s cloak, so there’s a possibility that poor Ben has gone full cosplay. The location he’s on looks very Death Star, but it’s likely Supreme Leader Snoke’s grand Star Destroyer—referred to in reports as a Mega Destroyer—which we’ve heard is a pivotal location in the film.
Here’s a look at what Kylo’s staring at in the above shot—which definitely looks like a big- ass throne for Snoke to sit in, seemingly confirming this is the Mega Destroyer the First Order’s leader calls home. A reverse look at that big explosion we see Poe (Oscar Isaac) and BB- 8 run to in the first trailer—one that gives us our first really good look at the A- Wings, making their return to the franchise in both original red and Resistance White/Blue flavors. Look at these adorable little space heroes! Sure, it’s an isolated behind- the- scenes shot, but could it imply that all four of our young heroes will be meeting up in the film at some point? We know at the very least a few will, thanks to some later shots in the reel. Our first look at a nasty- looking new weapon for the Stormtroopers (or at least a special version of them, given the new black shoulder pads). Previous reports described this clawed battlestaff as also being electrified, because the big spikey claws didn’t quite look sinister enough as is.
This gorgeous animatronic creature looks a little more The Last Guardian than The Last Jedi. The environment seems to match set pictures from filming for Canto Bight, some of the first pictures ever seen from filming— and the gated, horse- esque creature could be from a stable we recently heard of in a set report that Finn and Rose duck into during an elaborate chase sequence that ends up with them riding this creature, allegedly called a Falthier. Look, I don’t have anything to add here other than HOW COOL DOES THIS ICY WOLF LOOK!?
A very tiny Casino staff member on Canto Bight prepares his space- gambling table. The design is very reminiscent of Colonel Gascon from Clone Wars, who was from a diminutive race called the Zilkin. Our best look yet at Laura Dern’s mysterious new character—Resistance Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo. She might be sharing a warm greeting with General Organa here, but we’ve heard quite a few reports that she ends up playing a more antagonistic role despite being on the hero’s side. The internet’s boyfriend Poe Dameron takes his seat in a cockpit—one that appears to be a cockpit of one of the Resistance Skimmers we saw gorgeously gliding across Crait’s salted surface in the first trailer.
This seemingly innocuous shot of Chewie might come during a jokey sequence from John Boyega mocking director Rian Johnson, but note the environment: he’s on the Resistance ship bridge set we’ve seen Poe, Leia, and Finn all on as well. Given it doesn’t appear that he instantly returns to the Resistance after dropping Rey on Ahch- To, could he have come back with a few more passengers in tow when he eventually does? We saw the very close- up version of this in the trailer itself, but this wider shot gives us a better look at the fact that Rey is seemingly charging into battle on Ahch- To.
There’s been a report floating around forever about a major duel on the planet featuring Rey, Luke, Kylo Ren, and the Knights of Ren themselves—could those be the opponents she’s running to meet here? Here’s a really good look at the full extent of the scar Rey gave Kylo Ren during their Force Awakens duel. You’ll note, as we previously reported, Kylo’s scar has moved a couple inches to the side compared to where Rey actually slashed him—a continuity- bending choice by Rian Johnson because he thought the first scar placement looked goofy. Luke stands tall on Ahch- To, but he’s had a change of clothes from his white robes. We got a brief glimpse of this look at Star Wars Celebration a few months ago, but this our best full look at it.
This shot was heavily obscured in the initial trailer, but if you didn’t notice, here’s confirmation that Captain Phasma (Gwendoline Christie) and a bunch of Stormtroopers are responsible for that massive explosion aboard the Resistance ship Poe is on. Note the unfortunate tattered ruins of Black Leader’s X- Wing in the foreground. Speaking of Black Leader, here’s Poe sliding into a trench on what appears to be Crait—could this be earlier in the same sequence we saw at the very start of the reel? Rose, with a different hairstyle, sits on the landing bay of the Millennium Falcon. You can just make out that she’s been crying, so something pretty bad’s probably happened..
But first, a very quick look at another mysterious new addition to the Star Wars galaxy, played by Benicio Del Toro. Watch Grey Lady Online Full Movie here. We know nothing about this character other than the fact that he was referred to on set as “DJ”. Love N` Dancing Full Movie In English. You can just about glimpse BB- 8 in this shot too. A Resistance Gunner takes her place in the nose turret of one of the bombers we saw in the space battle of the first trailer—but not just any gunner. Rian Johnson has confirmed that this is, in fact, Paige Tico (Veronica Ngo), Rose’s sister. Beloved family member in a precarious combat position? Well, maybe something happens to her and that’s why Rose looked so upset.
