블루 앵커(The Blue Anchor)

Really enjoyed a lovely Easter Sunday roast today. Staff were lovely and friendly, made us feel very welcome. Lovely decorations for Easter. Really lovely pub, perfectly priced, great service and delicious food, will be returning for a roast in the near future.

I stayed on a Saturday in late April and the cost was £55. The shower required me to hand hold the shower head due to wrong size wall bracket. Also very weak water pressure. No heating so quite cold Breakfast pack provided was inadequate compared to full breakfast (see photo). Noise very loud until 11pm Saturday night from DJ in pub beneath. I would not stay again.

Good night for my friend 18th, but I was shocked at the service from a guy called Jamie. Everybody else behind the bar was very good, but Jamie was so rude to me. I simply asked for a drink and Jamie rolled his eyes at me, and then at the end of the night he was shouting saying f off swearing at customers. It made me feel uncomfortable and my friends just felt uncomfortable and disrespected. Was a good night but he ruined it by his rudeness.

Everyone we spoke to was lovely who worked here. However, they really do need a lot of support on the service. The first person we saw couldn’t locate any menus… so we waited at our garden table and in the end I had to send my partner in to give another nudge as time was ticking and we had a hungry toddler. In the end I had to feed him our own bits. Food took a while for such an empty pub. We ordered two burgers but my partners just came as chips with cheese and bacon… the guy explained that the chef had misunderstood his notes and hadn’t done the cheese and bacon burger so that would be coming but only just being started now…that seemed incredibly nuts! Then it took 45 mins for the delayed burger to come… and then be the wrong burger - they brought out a chicken burger not a beef burger! We laughed about it and got a refund on one of the meals and then we left, never to return. Shame because everyone seemed very nice!
