The Hope and Anchor English Pub

Loved the fish and chips! Best cod I’ve ever had for sure. The beer batter wasn’t over powering and tartar sauce perfect. Also, the sweet potato fries were delicious. My husband had the shepherds pie and he ate the whole plate. I tried a bite and it was very well seasoned. My father-in-law loved the baked cod. Next time I am in this area I will definitely come back for more. Also, our waitress, Heaven (sorry I forgot the correct spelling) was super nice and provided very good service. Drinks were always full and she kept coming back to check on us.

We arrived around 6:30 on a Friday night, and the dining room was completely full. It's always great to see a local restaurant thriving. We grabbed seats at the bar and enjoyed a pint of Smithwick’s (served properly in a Smithwick’s glass) while waiting to be seated, which only took about 20 minutes. Honestly, I was tempted to just stay at the bar because the atmosphere and service were A+. Once seated, we ordered the Queen portion of the fish and chips, which was a generous serving, and the shrimp-stuffed cod. Both dishes were excellent. Our server was attentive throughout the meal and made sure our drinks never ran dry. We would definitely recommend this place.

The fish and chips were the star of our meal. The coconut shrimp were tasty and cooked perfectly. The mashed potatoes were under seasoned. The atmosphere was dated. I would like to come back when they have comedy night. Fish and chips are worth the visit!

Marvelous English Pub. Proper fish and chips, loved the Old Speckled Hen (ale), and a delicious dessert. Server Emily was friendly and charming. Saturday night comedy was a good laugh as well 😄 Came back a second time, as amazing as the first. Cottage pie was delicious and just the remedy for a cool overcast day. Guinness cheesecake is delectable. And server Marcia was wonderful as well. This 🇬🇧 Pub is the best! A few more updates: The pan seared salmon induced a state of euphoria, The Brussels sprouts were a delicious accompaniment. Crispy fried ribs (not pictured) were delicious, the meat just about falling right off the bone. Most recently, the chicken and leek pie comprised a delightful balance of flavours and warmed the soul indeed on a wintry night. And more superlatives for Emily a

Service was GREAT! Selection of drinks/ale/stout is not to be missed! Food was definitely 5 star. I am so absolutely thrilled to get egg allergy friendly entrees! We will definitely be back! WITH friends !!! Update : Oct. 2023 So very glad to come again. As usual the food is scrumptious, drinks are not to be missed (selection can't be beat). Our server was newer but she nailed it with the suggestions and was super attentive to the egg allergy alert. LOVE coming here!
