"Known this pub since I was a teenager. Has a character of its own, loved by locals and those visiting. Please be respectful that it is very much loved locally. A thatched pub, take your dog, meet the bikers, see people feel safe enough to go alone, couples, groups.... restaurant above the pub, guest beers and has had its own beer festivals in the past. Ample parking opposite pub. One of those places to stop off at for a quick drink. Benches/tables outside. No garden as such. Small, but popular place in the Vale."

Vanessa
Probably the best pub I have EVER been to. The food was 10/10, the beer was cold and the atmosphere was quaint and cozy. The passageway to the bar was SO COOL!!
Gary
Established in 1380, this pub can't be beaten for its character. This, coupled with excellent home cooked meals, is a winning combination and you won't be disappointed.

Had a really lovely lunch at this very atmospheric pub..... we had a great table next to the inglenook fireplace. Everyone was pleased with their meals including the vegetarians) ... There was 5 of us dining 2 small dogs.

We were a party of 10 guests for Sunday lunch in December the restaurant was extremely busy, yet we had attentive service and each of us had an excellent meal with enormous portions of extra vegetables. Our table was in an alcove which felt very safe in terms of Covid.

Saw the Blue Anchor on a local BBC TV Show, so thought we would pop down. We popped in on Saturday and enjoyed a light lunch and some excellently kept beer. We would thoroughly recommend the pub as both a great historical location and a great pub. We will certainly return.

My husband, my daughter, her fiance and I, just enjoyed probably the most perfect meal I have had in many years. The Blue Anchor is just wonderful. The staff are so kind and friendly, the atmosphere is warm and wonderful and the food....well, out of this world. Tender meats, fresh vegetables, scrumptious desserts. What more could you ask for?

Had a meal there with friends and family to celebrate my brothers 70th birthday and had a wonderful time. Staff very attentive and pleasant from start to finish. We all choose our food except dessert before and it all arrived together and it was hot and delicious. Its been a long time since we've visited the blue anchor and I know it won't be long before we're back.
