Bestie's does depart from traditional English practice by frying with vegetable oil instead of beef fat, but this innovation does no harm to either taste or crispness. The French fries that were served with the fish had the skin left on, and were fresh-cut and crisp. We had enjoyed a good dose of the welcoming atmosphere that has made folk over the centuries congregate at British drinking establishments, and we saluted a hard partying soccer player for making it possible in Hermosa Beach. Bestie's is located at 1332 Hermosa Avenue in Hermosa Beach. Main entry is from alley in the rear.
Children welcome, full bar.
