Cameron's Pub & Restaurant - Half Moon Bay, California

Matty E.

Fun, kitschy joint in Half Moon Bay with warm service and lots of fried options.

Would definitely recommend trying Cameron’s to round off a visit to Half Moon. The decor is all about MAXIMALISM — think Chilis/Applebees/Cracker Barrel style but with a decidedly British take, innit.

Fish and chips is the clear classic here. The London Tower of onion rings was a fun way to start the meal, and the extensive beer menu was just what we were hoping for from a British pub.

Be prepared for a bit of heartburn after the meal — it’s fried pub food, after all — but the plentiful parking out front means you don’t have a long walk from the table to the car.

The real highlight, however, was our server — she was a local schoolteacher in Half Moon Bay and went out of her way to help us feel welcomed and celebrate our weekend vacation in her town. We made sure to leave a nice tip; so glad to see a local place keep the lifeblood of the community flowing!

This place was on my bucket list for a while and finally I got to check it out. Touch of England in California: good food, helpful service, great vibes

Besides all the little screaming kids, the pub had a fun energetic feel to it, great stop for dinner after visitng the beach. Good selection of drinks and lots of great dishes. I recommend getting the fried calamari very savory and light for a starter. I got the Lobster Mac and Cheese with Mashed Potatoes and my Partner got the Lobster Bake with sweet potato fries both dishes came with coleslaw and a warm dinner roll. A new favorite spot if your ever in HalfMoon bay visiting. Oh and super dog friendly we didn't have a dog but since it was raining out they allowed everyone's fur babies inside to stay warm and dry. 🙂

I was here last week for a take out order. But I liked the energy and decor while waiting, it seems like a lively and fun place to hang out. I ordered the fish and chips, which was very good and tasted freshly made. I would definitely come back.

AKKKKK this place is the bomb!! Love the cool fun British pub decor! So many things to look at plus the place has some rad history being over 100 years old! I had the Shepherds pie it was so delicious 😋 and a good size! Lots of beers 🍻 and variety of foods. Service was really friendly but slow. Maybe they need more cooks or servers. They also have events i wanna try. Go enjoy a lunch or dinner there!

The pulled pork sandwich was very tasty, but the lobster stew was simply awful. It was full of soggy croutons, thick and lumpy with flour or some other thickening agent, and had very few tiny lobster bits and I do mean TINY BITS. It looked like something the cat threw up. We could not eat it, and wasted $24.00 plus almost 10% tax. This establishment adds a surcharge if you use your credit card. This was not mentioned at the table. The proprietor insisted this was the practice “all over California.” I differed with her, got a refund, and paid with cash. I have never had this happen in San Francisco, where I live and eat out often. It is simply the cost of doing business. Interesting and colorful British decor, good service, easy parking, but don’t order the lobster stew! It is vile.

Good food and good vibes

I come inside and I feel like I'm back in a pub in England.

Got the fish and chips of course. Great flavor, good coating. Soups are good and can't go wrong with the sandwiches.
