There was a time when a trip to the pub meant more than just a pint - it meant a proper meal. British pub grub was hearty, unpretentious, and made to line bellies after a hard day's work.
Some pub classics have stood the test of time - think fish and chips or a Sunday roast - but many dishes have faded into obscurity, rarely seen on menus today.
