“In the beginning, there were no pubs... and life sucked”

Trials Pub is located in San Jose, California. We offers a full selection of beer, wine, spirits, and we have a deserved reputation for serving the best fish & chips in San Jose, not to mention the best curry this side of Edinburgh. Trials Pub is a rarity. It is an authentic British Pub selling 20oz pints of Britain's favorite beers and British food. Trials Pub is a home-away-from-home for people from around the world and around the corner. Situated in an historic landmark - the building dates back to 1894 - Trials is just the latest occupant in one of the most interesting Victorian buildings in the heart of Silicon Valley.
