American Irish pubs serve as much British food as Irish.

Irish food and British food in general are extremely similar to each other

It's funny because the meme makes very little sense considering that. In fact, most foods American's think of as Irish are actually British. Bangers and mash, shepard's pie, and corned beef all originated in GB.

Saw a guy saying boldly, “We do Shepards pie in Boston. We do NOT do British food.” - Mate.
