With its stunning waterfront location overlooking the River Crouch, the Anchor offers the perfect tranquil destination to unwind and relax with friends and family. Set in Hullbridge, deep in the heart of the charming Essex countryside, surrounded by acres of green belt farmland and a nature reserve, visitors can enjoy spectacular views of the river and undulating hills. Our dedicated canopy in the garden provides the perfect place to shelter from the elements whilst catching up with friends outside taking in the views of the river. If you prefer to be inside, the Orangery, with its floor to ceiling glass windows and an abundance of natural light, is the perfect alternative. The Anchor is a unique riverside retreat and the perfect destination to dine in style or simply to just watch the world go by, whilst enjoying one of our local ales or fine wines, after a stroll along the river bank. Whether you're looking for a pub with outdoor seating in Hullbridge, a scenic spot for lunch overlooking the river, or a welcoming Essex pub garden, the Anchor provides the perfect setting. Guests can enjoy panoramic waterside views from our spacious garden and large decked terraces, making it one of the area's most picturesque places to eat and drink. Our covered outdoor canopy allows you to enjoy the riverside atmosphere in all seasons, providing comfortable shelter while taking in the tranquil River Crouch views. Located in the heart of the Essex countryside, the Anchor combines great food, a welcoming atmosphere and one of the best waterfront locations in Essex, making it an ideal destination for locals and visitors alike.
