The Anchor Inn - Menu

Lovely pub, good beer, but the food was not great. We had two steaks, both of which were poor quality excessive fat and gristle, and very poor for the price.

Good food with adequate Gluten Free options. Dog friendly in big garden but indoors dogs only allowed in the rather small public bar. Would be a squeeze on a busy wet day.

Stayed here previously and was very happy, but it has really gone down hill, my room is so noisy, a constant noise in the room from refrigerators or similar. No sleep! Breakfast choice in room has also reduced.

We’ve come here often on our way to Devon ,wont be coming again ,don’t know wether its under new management but they need to get a chef that can cook a burger ,all I got was. Soggy brioche bun full of raw burger ,also very expensive

Very poor meals served. Buttered chicken curry, luke warm and completely lacking in flavour. This was just chicken with curry sauce poured over. Second meal was Described as ‘chicken in lemon and herb’ but again no flavour and cold. Very sad as this used to be one of our favourite places to eat.

We are staying in Thornbury for a couple of days and decided to re-visit The Anchor Inn in nearby Oldbury on Severn. What a delightful country village pub it is, from the log fire burning huge logs to the smiling bar staff and range of draught beers. I chose the Fish Pie and my husband the Lambs Liver and Bacon, both of which were excellent. Thank you for a most enjoyable visit.

Until about five years ago, my husband and I lived in the area for some forty years and never had a bad meal at the Anchor. It was a must to visit on our trip down Memory Lane. What a disappointment! Beef curry was more like a watery beef stew with a spoonful of curry powder added at the last minute. We were glad of the generous pot of mango chutney to give it some flavour. We didn’t risk desserts. The young waitress seemed surprised at our answer when she asked us if everything was alright with our meal. She murmured “oh sorry” and that was it. Beer and wine were fine.

Pre-booked a one night stay to attend a party nearby. Location is lovely, room was well decorated, very clean and well stocked fridge. HOWEVER, our room, named ‘Dobbins’, was located immediately above some refrigeration units which were noisy and vibrated the bed walls, to the point where I couldn’t sleep. Although acknowledging that it is a working pub, we have stayed in many other such pubs, without same issue. Tried to discuss with manager on checkout this morning, but he was dismissive and appeared completely uninterested. For this reason, would NOT stay again or recommend.

We popped into the Anchor after a dog walk down to the sailing club, as we've had really good food there before and the weather was warm. We sat outside and ordered, prices were really reasonable and food came within 15 minutes. I can honestly say that my meal (lasagne) was one of the nicest meals I've ever eaten. I know it's hard to get lasagne wrong but I will never enjoy one anywhere else knowing this one exists. Then the garlic bread, again, best garlic bread EVER. I could eat this meal every day for the rest of my life. My boyfriend had a venison burger chips and said it was amazing too, but I was too focused on my own food to remember what else he said. Seriously. Incredible. Also nice...
