What User likes about The Old Anchor:
We were seeking out live music and The Old Anchor was a great choice for supporting live music. Unfortunately, we visited on a quiet evening when there was no performance.

This pub is situated in a beautiful location, making it worth the search for a tranquil atmosphere. View all feedback.
