Malt and Anchor

About Malt and Anchor

Malt and Anchor stands out in Cirencester with its focused, fish-led offering and a clean, contemporary look that nods to the coast without tipping into pastiche. The menu leans heavily into fresh seafood — from classic fish and chips done properly to grilled fish, shellfish and lighter plates — all handled with a confident, unfussy approach that lets the quality of the ingredients do the talking. Inside, the space is bright and modern, with a relaxed but well-kept feel that suits everything from a casual lunch to an easygoing dinner. There’s also a takeaway angle for those after something quick, but it’s the sit-down experience that gives it real presence locally. Malt and Anchor is also a serial award winner, including Best Fish & Chip Shop in the UK at the ITV Food and Drink Awards.
