| Nice enough little pub tucked away down an alleyway off Chancery Lane. Nothing unusual in the way of ales, but the London Pride was OK. Fairly small but made larger by the front of the pub opening up and the utilization of some outside seating. Must have been a simple backstreet boozer at some stage, but now moved a bit upmarket, which is not surprising in this part of the world. Nevertheless a decent enough little pub. There are a lot worse places to stop for a drink. RexRattus - 29 Sep 2007 18:31 |
| I rather like this place, I must admit. Obscurely located down a passageway off Chancery Lane it has a small upstairs bar with outside seating and a larger downstairs bar which is often used for functions etc. The food always smells good although it's probably five years since I've eaten here. A few real ales on tap: nothing exciting and not brilliantly served last time I was here. But it's refreshingly different to the city norm and something of a break from the bustle of EC4. A nice place to come and peruse the paper in one's lunch hour. grecian - 13 Mar 2007 14:47 |
| Karioke (sp?) has started on Friday evenings. Good for a giggle. lynnetom20042003 - 12 Mar 2006 15:22 |
| It has to be said that you very rarely come across decent boozers this day and age. Once what were decent pubs have been swallowed up and regurgitated as Weatherspoons or tacky Sam Smith pubs. However at last I have found a gem! A friendly, clean and inviting pub serving an excellent range of real ales, and superb food to boot. I believe The Anchor has also been awarded best food pub which I can fully understand. Anyway a big must to anybody in the area, and keep up the good work! anonymous - 16 Jul 2005 15:56 |
| I work next door to the Blue Anchor, and it used to be a regular friday lunchtime haunt for us. The food was good, if unremarkable, they had a small selection of well-kept ales, and the staff were friendly. Then they changed management, stopped doing lunchtime table service, the beer turned sour (quite literally), and we started going elsewhere. However, in the last couple of months, it seems to have picked itself up a little. At least, the beer is drinkable again. skaffman - 30 Mar 2005 08:27 |
