Fox & Anchor Pub 115 Charterhouse Street, London EC1M 6AA

"We stayed in one of the 6 rooms at fox & anchor. We also dined a few times during our vacation. We cannot say enough good things - great location, 5 min walk to (2) different underground stations. The food was delicious. We had the fish & chips and the burger. Highly recommend both - juicy and flavorful. The French fries were a late night snack for us after a couple of tiresome days. The room was outstanding. We stayed in the market suite and it is truly a suite. Tons of space, beautiful amenities a and a private outdoor area! The bed was the only complaint. It was a little stiff for my husband. But everything else was great. Lovely snacks and fully stocked fridge each night. We took advantage of the espresso machine each morning and of course, the copper tub. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. There is a large, narrow staircase to go up, so just note your luggage will need to be carried! We loved our stay - highly recommend!"

"A great haunt right off Smithfield. They do an incredible city boy breakfast and everything in between. We stopped in at midday on a Sunday and it was quiet. During the week the outside provides a nice place to drink during the summer. Previously we had stayed the night and they also have well appointed rooms. It is not like staying at the Rookery nearby, but it is a wholly different experience and they do not try to be the same. Definitely check out the Fox for fun times, any time!"

"I was looking for a traditional pub to rest for a bit, have a nice beer and enjoy hot pub food. This looked like just that spot. Had a roast as it was Sunday ☺️ Not sure I ever tasted English roast before. Chose the beef roast it was quite tasty, the meat, the sauce and the potatoes. The only thing that was not ok was the “blue cheese” croquete, as it didn’t taste like blue cheese, it not even tasted like cheese, hence the 4 star. The waiter was friendly, he even guided me through my order, and the environment is exactly what you want to find in a English pub. Lovely tables, private rooms and very comfy chairs, hope I have the opportunity to return someday ☺️ It was pricey, but maybe on price for and English roast in London. They have around 15 different taps, and have common stuff like Peroni, Estrella and Guiness"

"Due to Covid, we haven't been in here for a meal for 3 years. The food is still as good as ever. So lovely to sit and eat in a place with such history. Old fashioned wooden clad booths."

"This lovely pub, located in the hotel of the same name, has a traditional, dark wood, cosy feel to it. The bar as you first enter is narrow with limited seating, but there is an additional room at the back and a dining room upstairs. The pub still has a Smithfield Market License, and therefore is open, and can serve alcohol, to hotel residents and non-residents from 7am. They also serve an excellent Full English Breakfast. Friendly staff, great selection of real ales & craft beers; this is a fabulous pub."
