Booked early to make sure we could get in for Sunday lunch and so glad we did. Food was delicious, service fantastic, very friendly and accommodating.

Had a fantastic meal with our family . Staff and service were excellent and we all enjoyed our meal including the children . Would definitely recommend

Went to the Hope & Anchor while on Holiday. Absolutely superb food at reasonable prices. Would definitely recommend to anyone 10/10 for me.

Visited for the first time yesterday for lunch, the food was amazing, best pizza I’ve ever tasted, zucchini fritters were also wonderful as were the desserts, can’t wait to come back and try more! Also the service was great and the restaurant was stylish and comfortable.

Great pub, excellent food, lovely friendly attentive staff and a great atmosphere...

Was slightly worried when I noted that the H&F was up for sale on google. However after our excellent meals I was advised that the owner had decided not to sell. The food was inventive, with quality ingredients - the chef was obviously a talent to cherish. Finally the manager? and young waitress were great working really hard to service a busy evening.

As on our previous visit our meal on 28th April was of the highest order - food excellent, service timely and cheerful.

Excellent Sunday Lunch! We usually go in the evenings and the food is always good. Sunday lunch proved to be even better.

Fabulous Sunday dinner. Great value, excellent quality and good portion size with plenty vegetables. Roast beef served pink with a huge Yorkshire pudding. Staff and service was excellent, especially as it was very busy.

Great Sunday lunch. Superb beef. Matched by friendly and efficient service.

We had such a lovely family meal here. Everybody was so welcoming and helpful, and went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. The food was excellent; the sticky toffee pudding was absolutely deserving of its ‘famous’ status. Excellent. Thank you so much for having us.

Excellent meal. The meal was well priced and very good value for money. The food was of very good quality and good portion sizes. The staff were very helpful, friendly and attentative.
