Americans tried to replicate the UK with miniature town and it's hilarious

It's not exactly a secret that our mates across the pond have their own view of what the UK looks like - usually involving a mixture of scones, The Holiday, tea and the Royal Family.

So when tasked with re-creating a mini version of our island, it's unsurprising that Americans may not have quite captured the full essence of the UK, but no doubt the result is both heartwarming and, well, a bit funny.

Located in Walt Disney World Resort's EPCOT park, the bite-sized version of the UK makes up just one part of the world pavilion and is certainly something.

Featuring cobbled streets, a quaint cottage, a fish and chip shop and even its own pub, it's very nice that Americans think the UK looks like this... you can tell they haven't seen that Manchester New Year photo.

Okay, so jokes aside, the team over at Disney impressively drew on Tudor, Victorian and Georgian influences - all large parts of the UK's history - to create the buildings in the fake town, and even popped in a red telephone box for good measure.

And for those who want to spend their dollars, there's of course a UK-themed gift shop with a whole load of British fodder including a feather quill, of course, UK-themed children's books, pint glasses, medieval dress-up items, tea and even Beatles merch.

Like all Brits, the first thing I sniffed out was the pub - named the Rose & Crown.

Having walked inside the pub myself, Disney definitely nailed the damp, aged-carpet smell, and appearance-wise, it was spot on, to be fair.

Promising traditional British grub, guests can gorge on the likes of pub classics cottage pie, fish and chips and bangers and mash, as well as a couple of plant-based options too.

But let's get onto the bit we all care about - booze.

The first thing I notice is there’s not a drop of Carling in sight. Wouldn't it be nice if all British pubs followed suit?

There's also seemingly no dark fruits - arguably the most British of the Strongbow options - and a Snake Bite is definitely more of a uni drink.

That being said, it's not a bad effort all around and they even went to the trouble of spelling whisky the way Scots do, which is a nice touch.

I suppose it's all subject to taste, so you can make your own mind up on the booze selection:

Booze aside, the UK replica town also boasts a tea room where Alice from Alice in Wonderland can be found to meet and greet guests, as well as the Yorkshire County Fish Shop serving up traditional seaside scran.

It's safe to say Disney has made the UK seem like a very quaint and generally lovely place to live.

Though, if they ever wanted an update in the future, I'd suggest heading down to Blackpool for a night out to get a good insight.
