Ye Olde King's Head recreates the authentic British Soccer Pub. Ye Olde King's Head is an official pub of the LA Galaxy & MLS!

Great English Pub. Not Irish. English. Different.

Every British cliche wrapped up in one place. Took 20 minutes to order a drink and 15 minutes to arrive after that.

The English Breakfast here puts many greasy spoons and pubs in London to shame. Really dirty bacon. Like it should be.

Easily one of the best British Pubs in LA. Play some real steel tip darts or come on Wednesdays for an awesome trivia night.
