Peter Groves Good place for a cup of tea and piece of cake before the show

J S Nether Wallop restaurant food was so good. The way they used veggies was so tasty. Im not veggie and had a meat main, but it was the veggies that stood out. Our waitress was lovely too.

Claire Jones Extremely happy with the service provided. We have now bought our second lot of Silkie hatching eggs after having such a good hatch rate from our previous order. Zoe goes out of her way to keep you updated and offer advice where needed. Thank you, would highly recommend.

Jake Scrivener Waited a long time to visit Beak and it was well worth the wait, great atmosphere, superb and friendly staff (we arrived an hour early and they still served us and were so accommodating) and needless to say the beers were brilliant. Won’t hesitate to come back.

Simon Fisher A second visit this week as we were so impressed by the Sunday carvery. Friday is pie day, (2 for £20 at the time of writing!) I had the most amazing beef and Guinness pie served with mustard mash and a red wine gravy. You get a choice mash, my wife had horseradish, both were delicious! All food is prepared in house! Good wholesome nosh! (Check out the carvery - see other reviews!) Recommend both!! Recommend booking as it was very busy!

Carl Jeffrey The rural riverside setting is perfect for anyone who loves countryside walks or fancies hiring a rowing boat to explore the river. I was hiking solo on a multi-day trek from Brighton to Rochester when I came across the Anchor Inn. It was a warm early evening, and as I ordered a refreshing pint in the front bar, the landlord Simon (who had never met me before) immediately noticed my rucksack and said: “If you’re looking for somewhere to pitch your tent tonight, you’re very welcome to use the field behind the pub.” It was such a generous offer that I gladly accepted. I spent the evening enjoying a few pints in the company of Simon and his staff, who made me feel completely at home. I didn’t eat during my stay, though the food looked excellent, but I can vouch for a superb pint of Harvey’s Best Bitter. The following morning, as I was packing up at 8am, Simon even walked over with a cup of tea – an incredibly thoughtful gesture that summed up the hospitality I experienced here. I truly can’t thank Simon and his team enough. The Anchor Inn is a brilliant riverside pub, and I’ll definitely be returning with friends. Highly recommended!
