this is the best series on this channel by far. Joe and harry have fantastic chemistry.

@CorkWhisperer Месяц назад

Best series on the internet.

@bcnicholas123 Месяц назад

Yeah it kinda has the same feel as Buzzfeed Worth It back in its prime. Great vibes

@paddymcdoogle4025 Месяц назад

their hipster chemistry is about as cool as that dog turd.

@trusttheprocess4775 Месяц назад

Absolutely the best series. Both the hosts are super fun and chill and that makes the difference. They complement each other really well.

@wyattlewis1347 Месяц назад

Wholeheartedly agree, it's not just about the food, that's what makes it great. But, at the same time, they don't always agree with each other, it's quite refreshing.

@essess733 Месяц назад

One thing I really like about these vids are that the crew in background will laugh and have a small input now and then, adds to the environment, especially in this episode in pubs you need that social aspect and that added to it.

@KillerTacos54 Месяц назад

100% agreed!

@The2ndFirst Месяц назад

It 100% is a winning theme. I love when the crew is involved and it always makes me smile when the crew laughs.

Fun fact about pub names in Britain - they're named things like 'The Kings Head' & 'The Black Swan' because outside there would be a painted image above the entrance on the outside. This was done to help identify public houses (pubs) before most people were literate and could read / write. Most frequenters were agriculture / factory workers and would use the image above the entrance to identify the pub.

@JimWhitaker Месяц назад

Alternatively, alehouses would traditionally be identified by a bough from an evergreen tree fixed above the entrance. I last saw this in Austria a couple of decades ago.

@jack28aug 25 дней назад

in the midlands we nickname them also, so my locals were the coach n horses (coke n snorters), the rose n crown (closing down), the travellers rest (old mans vest), the olympic (the armpit), and lastly the victoria which we call "the middle", coz its in the middle of the rest of em.

@micaylabirondo836 Месяц назад

Do a PART TWO of this. Seriously, one of the best episodes so far.

@notforwantoftrying1 Месяц назад

Agreed, I think Joe is starting to understand Harry better, specifically that he isn't necessarily showing something good or that he personally likes, but instead trying to show the most authentic/traditional/recognisable British cultural touchstones.

Spoons doesn't play music because Sir Tim Martin modelled his chain on George Orwell's essay "The Moon Under Water" where Orwell lists all the attributes for his perfect pub, one being "In the Moon Under Water it is always quiet enough to talk. The house possesses neither a radio nor a piano".

@dogsnads5634 Месяц назад

Plus they have a seperate chain of pubs called Lloyds No.1 that does play music...and has dance floors....they also have their own hotels.

@Steven_20031 Месяц назад

22:45 fun fact about half pints, my dad worked in a lot of pubs and you can tell a landlord is an alcoholic as usually they will be drinking half pints to make it seem they aren't drinking as much

@lynnejamieson2063 Месяц назад

Until relatively recently in Scotland, there was a whole section of society (mainly working class men, though by the time I was working behind a bar in the mid 90’s they were mostly retired) who would buy a single half pint of beer to last their entire visit and would order however many whiskys to sip and once the got down to the last of their whisky, they’d pour the last few drips into their beer. This was my Granda’s way of drinking in a pub and I can only say that in the thirty odd years we shared this planet, I can only really remember him being properly drunk once…though my brothers will have seen it far more often due to Burns Suppers mainly.

@Periwinkleblue942 Месяц назад

As an Englishmen who loves America and American culture, this series is unbelievably awesome. More please! And better pubs next time! Gordon’s wine bar!? - that needs to be one it would blow an American mind! 😊

@susanharris5331 Месяц назад

Omg these two in any environment makes me smile. Also the more drunk Joe got the more hilarious he became! I love this series so much! Especially when Joe goes to Harry's country. Hands down the best thing in Insider Food!

@eatmyshamrock Месяц назад

27:36 Harry calling Highbury & Islington a lovely area just reminds of the time that I saw two middle aged men, presumably pissed out of their minds, fighting on the floor over a bottle of Sarsons vinegar that they'd stolen from the local spoons. To cap it all off a busker outside the station decided to freestyle narrate the two men wrestling on the ground. It was bewildering and I would've stayed to watch for longer but I had a 6 a side football match to get to

"Crack off with your mates in the pub" ...errr, I think you'll get barred from the pub _and_ arrested if you try cracking either them or yourself off. 😂

@drechsla Месяц назад

He may have confused the Irish phrase "a bit of craic" pronounced like crack which means a bit of fun. So he wasn't too far off I suppose.

@EarthAcademy9 Месяц назад

They were so charming, they didn't let him know what it means.😆

@char11eg Месяц назад

35:30 - As someone who worked in a pub in London, most of the strange requests we'd do, after clarifying about three times that is what they wanted. We'd then try whatever weird thing it was after our shifts, just to see if it actually worked or if it was just mental. The main one that stands out to me is having lager topped with pepsi, which honestly was nowhere near as bad as I expected - pretty much the same as a lemonade top haha, even if I looked at the guy who ordered it like he'd escaped from the local asylum!

@fayesouthall6604 Месяц назад

I loved a snakebite - or snakebite and black, half beer, half larger and blackcurrant juice. Not many pubs do that now.

@cheekychappy1234 Месяц назад

Lager and Coke is fairly common in Germany.

It's not only good. It's more or less the best people's food places.

@rubendejong6727 Месяц назад

My favourite pub: The Mayflower. I've made an oldest pubtour in London (for me and my friends), and loved this small, old pub.
