How come most English restaurants don't serve English dishes?

Answer 1

The English eat their favorite English dishes in pubs & England has plenty of those!  They provide a more casual and less formal environment where one can just relax & enjoy a pint or 2 (o3+) with good friends & family.  They are also much less expensive than a restaurant.  The Brits can also eat English food at home, so why eat at an expensive formal & stuffy restaurant?  Isnt that just ideal for French food anyway?
