Lovely staff, great atmosphere, great quiz night & pizzas!

Great time at the pub quiz, great atmosphere and lovely staff including Julie. Thanks

Great setting with very attentive staff and the grub is fab with a great chef on board now.

Lovely food , great selection of drinks and a warm welcome from all of the team. Very reasonable priced, would definitely recommend.

Friendly old school boozer great food , happy staff, I can't wait to come for a Sunday roast , recommend this place to anyone, kids and dogs welcome too, such a nice atmosphere and massive garden ten stars. Went back again and had roast dinner in a Sunday, beautiful roast all home cooked, proper old school roast and huge children's portion, can't fault this place, a pleasure of a pub

My wife and I had a roast dinner here for lunch today. It was absolutely the best roast dinner I've had from a pub in Guildford. Choice of meat for the roast and it came with roast potatoes, 3 veg, Yorkshire pudding, pigs in blankets and gravy. Today was Lamb Shank or Chicken. Both were gorgeous. I would thoroughly recommend.

Came across this pub whilst on the way to catch a Ferry in Portsmouth. They had live music which created a great atmosphere and the beer was great. We were told there would be a wait for the food but we were happy and it meant we could have another pint. The staff were so kind and apologised profusely for the wait but it was worth it. The roast chicken was amazing and had some of the best gravy ever and my friends loved the Lasagne, especially the stringy mozzarella on top. Will definitely be back 5*

Used to come here a lot years ago. Popped in for lunch recently. Generous and delicious food and really nice, friendly service. Lovely garden.

Brilliant little pub! Lovely, friendly staff and a fab atmosphere. Food was delicious, great selection of drinks, all served with a smile! Will definitely be back ☺️

Really rough. I like a local pub but just felt on edge with the clientel and general atmosphere.

Today I ordered 3 non-alcoholic drinks and was served with three alcoholic drinks a gin/tonic with red fruits and two peroni beers (5%) with alcohol my husband had to cancel work due to this incident, spectacular place to enjoy a weekend happy afternoon good music, but the waitress is extremely impolite/rude and unhappy with the way she serves customers! I asked for a receipt for the expense and the employee justifies that she told the customer (my husband), who is autistic, with speech difficulties, that she repeated the order twice, in short, her defense is fine with the boss. He had to call work and take a day off because he was a driver, an unpleasant employee... and very rude when serving and assisting customers! And without any (adequate) training to speak to a person with speech difficulties… I brought the purchase receipt, how can I legally claim this service? In relation to food service, future clients/consumers are advised that food will only be served after (Wednesday) 6:30 pm.

Delicious food, outstanding service and cosy setting, what more could you ask for? Will definitely return again. 😊

Delicious food, outstanding service and cosy setting. Came here with an elderly and a toddler, both of whom thoroughly enjoyed themselves and we all had a great lunch together.

My favourite local pub, staff are very welcoming and create a calm and safe environment to enjoy a beer and a roast after a long weekend !! Would definitely recommend

An amazing start to the Euros, this will definitely be my watering hold for all of the games, bring on Thursday!!! Great atmosphere, great food and top tier service, see you guys soon.

The best pizza I ever had , the food is amazing 🥰

Can’t wait to come back, best service in Guildford! Easily booked a table for the euros, ordered a pizza which was delicious made by Macie! Thank you to the team at the Anchor and Horseshoe!

Boyfriend was assaulted in this place. Called the manager the day after who said she'd check the CCTV. No call back or message left as promised. Boyfriend wasn't hurt, only pushed over so didn't take it any further. Will skip this pub from now on to avoid them sort of crowds

macy gave amazing service made beautiful drinks and made us feel so welcome really lovely pub and servers would recommend and come again

Such a lovely pub !!! A great welcome and friendly atmosphere. The food I must say is amazing as well as fairly priced and not to mention decent portions. …Huge thanks to Julie and Mike, both a credit to this place. Defo will be back again for a Sunday roast .plenty of parking, doggy friendly .wish all pubs had this character and charm. …. Well done guys. A true credit to the pub industry

We had a most delightful catch up with friends for a 60th birthday. Didn't realise they had organised nibbles so ordered margarita pizza. Just want to say, to chef, absolutely sublime !! Delicious!! Lovely afternoon

Excellent service and cheery welcome. Also newly refurbished. Nice atmosphere and excellent food and drink. Strongly recommend

Just want to say a big thank you to Julie and Mike for bringing the anchor and horseshoe back to the community of Burpham. Every time we have been in they make us feel so welcome, great team, great service just like a true traditional pub should be and there are not many of them left.

I previously gave the below review with 2 stars, I have been back several times since and can say that its a good everyday pub, friendly staff and good atmosphere, will continue to call in when passing. Seems like a nice enough pub but for some strange reason they had the TV so loud it was unbearable, with speakers everywhere there was nowhere to hide, rushed my pint and left, otherwise would have stayed longer.

We were pleasantly surprised by this pub after stumbling across it last minute. The lady runs the pub is so warmingly welcoming, friendly and accommodating. We had a lovely roast dinner with all the trimmings and they also accommodated our 3 year old with a child size portion. Very friendly relaxed atmosphere and would come again!

Amazing Sunday lunch!! Stopped off on the way home for a cozy pint, watched some football and had 2 wonderful lamb shanks; piled high with all the trimmings. Will stop off again next time we are passing. Dog friendly as well.

It's a cosy real pub. The locals are friendly and chatty. The bar staff are too.

Wonderful bar staff great atmosphere warm welcome every time

Great traditional pub, with friendly staff.

Stumbled across this place when we went to a remembrance on Friday. Saw a sign for best Sunday roasts and knew we had to try. Called on the off chance they would have a table for two adults and two kids. They didn’t disappoint and were able to fit us in within half an hour. The portions sizes were incredible. Children sharing a kids portion was plentiful. I had lamb shank and it was melt in the mouth. Husband had beef and couldn’t fault it either. My only thing is I’d like my potatoes crispy, so will ask next time :) Looking forward to our next visit already.

Landlady looked after us really well. Kindly allowed us to order food on the way as kitchen was closing. VERY dog friendly. Great oven baked pizzas. Just what we needed for a relaxing evening with our new dog. Thank you.

Great little traditional pub with excellent service and lovely staff. Live music, a good selection of beers and a friendly clientele makes for a great night out. Highly recommended.

Me and the lads went here for beers and felt peckish so we ordered some pizzas! Toppings are good and the pizza in general was good but my one was just a little too greasy but it was still really good! Would come back again!

Updated stars because of response from landlady. Be nice if advertising football that they actually have the volume on & not turned down on all the TV's. Said this before but was assured they have the volume on, which they didn't again! and Strange how they ignore a premier league game on the website & yet a championship game is put on there. Thank you for the reply Julie.

Really like this pub. Friendly, great selection of beers, good food and comfortable seating and surroundings.

Lovely little quaint English country pub with an excellent selection of beer. We had not planned nor did we eat here.

What can I say keep coming back because its the best place in guildford had pizza this time freshly made never had one quite like it AMAZING!!!!!! forget your regular pizza companies come try this you won't look back and as always just the best friendly environment what more could you want. See you all soon Baz x

Amazing food and even better service! Garden area was peaceful and large selection of Gin! Prices very good - will return again!

Food is consistently brilliant! Maisie and the young tatted chap are always accommodating and entertaining.. loving the new Cruzcampo addition and a couple of the guys in the group really enjoyed the new cherry gin with elderflower tonic ❤️

Great venue and great atmosphere allway have a good band on

Very nice beer garden and friendly staff!

Popped in for a pint and never wanted to leave🤩 staff and locals are such a laugh! Food was great, I may be coming here for dinner everyday at this rate I just can’t get enough Special shout-out to Luke and Macie

Great pizzas, cheerful and friendly staff and a vibrant beer garden. Great lager and very reasonably priced spirits 🤪

Great place for drinks and again pizzas were excellent quality. Spicy veggie sizzler for the win 🏅

A great pub if you fancy a punch up or want to be shouted and screamed at by the barmaid. The way she goes on you'd honestly think that you'd stepped foot into that themed Restaurant Karen's Dinner where the abuse is all part of the show. One time she complained because someone ordered a few rounds of shots and were using 'too many' glasses. Just serve the drinks Karen. The one saving grace is the young chap behind the bar who's always very helpful and charming.

Sunday roast was amazing ...everything you need from a roast..I had Pork with pigs in blankets stuffing Yorkshire pudding veg apple sauce and gravy and it was delicious. The table service was also very good. Really pleasant experience.

Excellent beer, food and beer garden

Fantastic staff - super helpful and Kind. Also amazing food and great atmosphere. I don’t usually write reviews but felt compelled to leave one after such a wonderful experience.

A great little pub, with a wide selection of drinks on availablity. Great chatty service, with staff that will engage in conversation with you and have a laugh. Great location for watching sports events too, with both indoor seating & outdoor seating. Multiple televisions inside and a large projector outside in the beer garden for those all important games! Couldn't ask for a better local!

Lovely quaint pub with lovely atmosphere and a good garden space .dog friendly and great Sunday roasts (especially the lamb shanks)

Unreal pub who do great pints of tribute. Bar staff were unreal especially macy and luke. Luke’s attitude was a real USP.

Quaint pub with loads of outdoor space, very reasonably priced drinks and super charismatic staff! What I love most is the frequent live music events on weekends. Not to mention the generously sized pizzas! I’ll be joining in with the Quiz nights next! 10/10

Such a lovely pub! Great food, great drinks all served with a smile. Definitely will be returning with friends!

What a lovely little Burpham pub so welcoming Julie and her team cannot do enough for you. The food was amazing and what a lovely environment to be in will definitely recommend and will be back on a regular basis people don't know what there missing a little Gem , If anyone is passing through guildford or local check this place out you won't be disappointed just perfect for families friends together or a quiet drink on your own Thanks again see you all soon.

I had heard that their Sunday Roast was the best around in the area so I thought a great idea to visit the pub with my Daughter, and her new Boyfriend, to all enjoy a full Sunday Roast, with all of the trimmings, to celebrate my Daughters 21st Birthday of which was last week - my Daughter just loves a full Sunday Pub lunch so she and her boyfriend were really looking forward to the lunch and meeting up again. So, we arrived and NO Sunday Lunch available today!! When I phoned on Thursday to book the table I specifically mentioned that we were very much looking forward to their Sunday Lunch!! We decided to stay anyway and food was just very average - from freezer to frying. My burger was truly awful and the burger meat was no better than one would get from Sunday Car Boot sale vender. Having said the Barmaid was 100%, however, will not be going back again.

Reasonable price for beer ( Guilford after all).

Service is always friendly and the cellar is well kept. Music is a tad too loud, though it's a good pub. The best in Burpham / Merrow by far.

Excellent venue, decent Real Ales - 3 on offer! Nice food, Pint Jugs Available, welcoming pub, dog freindly, free wifi, sky sports & bt sports, nice staff and well worth popping into the venue! Regular live music and weekly quiz nights on Wednesdays

The food is perfect the staff are super friendly and the place just has a great atmosphere. Such a welcoming place to be

Great little pub. Dog friendly. Sunday roasts are amazing and really welcoming & friendly staff.

This is by far one of the best pubs in the area, the staff are very welcoming, theres something for everyone on the menu. The Sunday roasts are amazing, I'm a fussy eater and can't fault any of the meals I've had over the past few years, so anyone who's not tried this lovely pub please ignore the negative reviews and find out for yourself! A lot of effort has been put into making this establishment eye pleasing especially the beer garden, outside seating areas with parasols and light / heaters and I real bonus dog friendly as well!. Wishing Julie and the staff all the best for the future.

This is by far one of the best pubs in the area, the staff are very welcoming, food is really good, not huge choice of menu but something for everyone which is better as mainly all home cooked. The Sunday roasts are amazing, I'm a...

We arrived without a booking but we’re greeted by incredibly friendly staff who organised an excellent Sunday roast for us even though the kitchen was almost out of food. 10/10
