Not long after moving to nearby Walerand Rd at the end of January I soon discovered this absolute gem.
Even though at that time I was enduring a bit of a mental car crash, the distraction of not feeling so isolated was welcome.
Since then I have so warmed to everything about this pub.
The atmosphere is priceless, the crowd is diverse and friendly, the bar staff are fab & when Lisa dishes up free grub, well if I went to a restaurant this would get a five star review!
The pool table takes centre stage & is very popular with regular tournaments = free grub! Dart board teams, juke box, spacious beer garden, resident woof woof & cat, damn reasonable bar prices, regular events including karaoke & dj’s, quirky interesting decor an open fire.
Also unlike Weatherspoons in Lewisham delighted that I can sup a pint in my bare feet, which is a full time lifestyle choice.
What more could one ask for? The Anchor deserves more recognition & should be known as a ‘destination.’
