The weekend is here, and we are so ready! 🍻🙌

If you’re making plans, come and spend some of it with us at The Anchor. A Friday evening drink, Saturday lunch with friends or a Sunday roast with the family, we’d love to see you.

Our new menus are out too, so there are a few new dishes to try if you fancy a change from your usual.

Just stopping in for a coffee and a chat? You’re always welcome. We’re looking forward to catching up with our regulars and meeting a few new faces over the weekend.

Who’s coming to join us? 😊

OUR NEW MENUS HAVE LANDED! 🍂⚓

And if you’ve been looking for the perfect excuse to treat yourself this weekend, this is it.

Honey and chipotle baked Camembert, ready to scoop up with toasted flatbread. Crispy chilli beef with udon noodles. Slow cooked beef cheek and pancetta bourguignon with buttery garlic mash. These are the sort of dishes you make weekend plans around. 😍

Then there are our loaded steak mince burgers, the Big Clucker, fresh fish delivered daily and 28 day aged steaks, with plenty of tempting extras if you fancy going all out.

Sunday deserves a mention of its own. A proper roast with all the trimmings, Yorkshire pudding and as much gravy as you like. Add honeyed pigs in blankets and creamy cauliflower cheese, and you’ve got an afternoon worth clearing the diary for.

And these pictures are just the highlights. There’s plenty more to discover, including breakfast, sides and nibbles, vegetarian and vegan choices, plus our gluten free and dairy free menus.

We’ve got your drinks covered too. A changing line up of guest taps, carefully selected wines, teas, barista coffee and plenty more for a quick catch up or a leisurely afternoon.

Have a look through, send this to someone you’d love to share a table with, and get your weekend treat in the diary.

Bring your appetite. We’ll take care of the cooking. 🧡

🥩🔥 Is there anything better than cutting into a perfectly cooked steak? 😍

Tender, juicy, packed with flavour and cooked just the way you like it. There's something about a proper steak dinner that really hits the spot!

Here at The Anchor, we take our steaks seriously, with a fantastic selection of cuts including Rump, Sirloin, Rib Eye, Fillet and T-Bone. Or feeling something lighter? We offer the best steak frites you can find! 🤤

So, how do you like yours cooked? Rare, medium or well done? Let us know in the comments! 👇
