Golden Anchor

"Tried to book a table for Mother's Day (11 people) which was way too stressful. Communication seems to be the biggest issue, the night before we received a call informing us that they were unaware of the booking until today! we ended up cancelling all together. Staff didn't seem bothered, no apology made for the disorganised management of our booking."

"The staff were informative but it was to loud for conversation at that time. Atmosphere was good but would suggest you check it out for yourself before using regularly. Otherwise it was OK and I will go again."

"The pub needs to be looked at by licensing authority. Despite being an offence they asked for 50p for a glass of tap water - from paying customers, in between rounds of drinks! The bartender is a rude woman and we suspect she only tried to pull this stunt as we were a (and the only) brown couple, and she was trying to make a quick few easy quid of us. The pub owner need to know this, if they don't. The person behind your bar claims the manager forces them to do this. This is illegal."

"We stopped by on this rainy afternoon on the way home as I really needed to use the loo, stayed for a pint and...I really loved the atmosphere! The place seems to have been recently revamped, it was extremely clean and you could see how much the owners/staff care for it by the attention to each detail in the furniture and decorations. There's a real wood fire and some classic reggae tunes were playing in the background (hadn't heard Beres Hammond in a pub in ages and my heart just melted). Haven't tried their food but will surely be back for that and some Saturday night jam!"

"Still seen as a pub for the local West Indian drinkers but it's long way from old guys playing dominoes stereotype of my youth. Great service, decent pint of Guinness. Lots of seats inside and out. To sum up its a good boozer, not as "fake" as some of pubs in the area, and I like that."
