THE WHALE & ALE

Get the Bangers and Mash.

This is an Irish pub in San Pedro, so it's not necessarily where you think to look for Irish fare.
Our server was great....very friendly and very attentive, and all the staff seemed pretty welcoming. The atmosphere is a bit more dive bar than Irish pub and could use a little updating.
The food was a little hit and miss. The chowder was a little fishy, and the ice cream with the bread pudding was freezer burned. But the French Dip was really good (and those fries/chips are probably worth the visit all by themselves)! The Scotch egg was different than any other we've tried, but in a good way.
We went on a Saturday afternoon, and it wasn't super busy, but was starting to pick up as we left. So probably a good sign that the locals were starting to flow in.
Not a "must stop", but worth a try.

The bread pudding was good The shepherd's pie was okay.. probably could have had more chunks of meat as opposed to ground meat. Lots of very British types of dishes here

The Whale and Ale Irish Pub is an absolute gem. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with a perfect blend of traditional Irish decor and modern touches. The staff is friendly and attentive, always willing to go the extra mile to make sure you have a great experience. The food is top-notch, with a menu that features both traditional Irish fare and contemporary dishes, all made with the freshest ingredients. The beer selection is impressive, with a wide range of options to suit any taste. I highly recommend the Whale and Ale Irish Pub for anyone looking for a great night out, whether it's for a casual meal or a special occasion.

The half-and-half beer at the Whale and Ale Irish Pub is a must-try for any beer lover. The unique blend of a creamy stout and a crisp lager creates a perfectly balanced and smooth taste. The flavors complement each other perfectly, with the rich chocolate and coffee notes of the stout blending seamlessly with the crisp and refreshing taste of the lager. The beer is served at the perfect temperature, making it easy to enjoy every sip. It's a unique and delicious beer that you won't find anywhere else. I highly recommend giving the half-and-half a try, whether you're a beer connoisseur or just looking for something new and different to try.

the beet salad is amazing. clam chowder, Sheppard pie and French dip were also excellent. the atmosphere is quaint and they have really good karaoke
