Crown and Anchor in Plymouth

Visited yesterday for Sunday lunch. Fantastic, with a choice of lots of vegetables and served hot. Staff friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend

What a beautiful little place! Lovely decor, staff were welcoming and friendly. Couldn’t do enough for us, but not in your face. The food was STUNNING! An independent chain so some unusual extras to the normal pub menu you’d expect such as a selection of loaded fries. Highly recommend.

Absolutely loved this place! Staff were incredibly friendly and happy to chat. They were very accommodating as we were a large party. Food was incredible and the atmosphere was very relaxing. Nice to get away from the usual chain pubs☺️

We had a Baby Shower here recently, I have to say how fabulous the Venue was Friendly and fun atmosphere . The food was delicious and the staff couldn’t do enough for us! Brilliant Service all around! Thank you 👏👏👏👏

I liked the quiet atmosphere. Unfortunately my biscuits and cheese was very nice once I had in date crackers

We had an area for a baby shower at the Crown and Anchor. The pub were very hospitable, friendly staff and wonderful food. Thank you ☺️

Given the private room upstairs, which has its own its own bar to watch the football. We originally booked our tables downstairs, but as the management asked us to move upstairs, we were given free nibbles at half time. Staff friendly

Great service and great food here. Recommended.

We came here yesterday and we had the most incredible roast dinners and the fish and chips were amazing. Great staff, service and food.

I was after a Sunday beef roast but they had ran out of veggies so I opted for Fish n chips - the fish was easily the worst I ever had in my life! Uncooked, soggy and absolutely tasteless! Mushy peas a joke!

Had the lambs liver.Absolutely delicious

Lovely staff, brilliant decor and food was insanely good!

We had All day breakfast which was really tasty! Price was reasonable. Service was friendly. Just the washrooms needed to be cleaned more frequently.

Beautiful function room, the staff were amazing 🤩 Would strongly recommend

Friendly staff, food fresh and good. Very tasty.

Brilliant staff so helpful. Becky was a total credit to the place. Helped in every way with a smile and didn't rush us. Roast was banging as well. Cant fault the place. 10 in every department will be back. Cheers

Great pub with lovely real ales, food was lovely. Definitely recommend

Great to find somewhere serving a Sunday roast at 6pm. Food was delicious. Lovely staff, well worth a visit.

Enjoyed lunch at Crown and anchor, I had the crab and prawn cocktail salad ( Delicious plenty of both prawns and crab lovely salad, my husband had cod and chips( lovely fresh fish with nice crispy batter). Will definitely visit again on our next visit to Plymouth. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Just had a lovely Sunday roast. I am a small eater but I was able to have the children's menu. Thank you crown and anchor ⚓️

Recorded our podcast at the Crown and Anchor. What an amazing place. Proper independent pub. Tonia was great to deal with in the booking, and the staff on the day were brilliant. Lovely function room space to record in. We will definitely be back!

What are fabulous pub with great food. I was spoilt for choice. Friendly staff. A gem.

Food was okay, not top but good old pub food, 3course for under 20£ now that's a fantastic price... Friendly and fast service, even got me extra gravy for free.I like a lot of gravy 😁Highly recommend Tony and Tonya place on a Sunday afternoon. Will be going again

We stopped here for a pint and a meal before heading to the ferry port. The staff were great and beer was good. The meals were tasty and portions large. Will look this place up again when I visit Plymouth next.

Entertainment was brilliant Andrew Brown very good singer

Excellent pub grub at excellent prices. I have eaten here many times because it is excellent value for money. The service is very good and friendly.

Really friendly pub with good food. Sunday lunch was great. They spoiled our chocolate lab too. Made us very welcome, all of the staff were fantastic Thank you. We will return. Nick

Frozen veg and the prawn cocktail just tasted of salty water worst I have ever tasted also hardly any sauce on it ,didn’t like what it was served in a half pint mug also had to pay for it all up front never ever had to do that

We have been going to the Crown for years and love our Sunday roast Today we had roast beef x2 and one fish chips and peas. Our meal was not what we expected.The veg was overcooked and tasteless and the cauliflower cheese was a spoonful of mush. Last month our meals were brilliant so what on earth has happened?

Order prawns was watery horrible ordered a roast beef the beef was tough and veg was frozen rubbish watery was waiting a long time and was given the wrong meal ordered small was given my granddaughter meal will not go there again

We had our daughters graduation meal here last night. Honestly Tonia and her team couldn’t do enough. Lovely food, lovely function room, highly recommend ❤️

Nice spot near the water in Plymouth. Food is good, people are friendly and not expensive.

The roast dinner was amazing. Everything was piping hot and I think I had every single vegetable on my plate😋. The girls (staff) were so lovely and made a big fuss of my dog (dogs are allowed in all areas, not just the wooden floor). Would go again in a heartbeat. Thank you.

Had a lovely meal in a great place. Plenty of seating indoors and outdoors. Friendly staff and locals. Absolutely will visit again.

Good beer and very friendly staff, highly recommended!

Really nice pub, friendly staff and great service.

We hired the Crown and Anchor for a naval retirement party which was brilliant! Nothing was too much trouble from all the staff, from the first call of the booking to the end of the night. Thank you all for a brilliant night and a special thanks to Yanah! You kept calm and smiley even when it was really busy. The food was amazing too! We will be back again.

Warm and friendly pub, great DJ and music.

Lovely pub ,great beers, atmosphere 👌,

4 pound 95 pen for a pint of shandy.

Always welcoming and happy. Welcomes dogs as well which is important to us.

Friendly staff. Lovely food. Generous helpings. Thoroughly recommend.

This pub is excellent Staff friendly And they make you feel welcome Atmosphere is brilliant I go at least once a month for a girls night out And always fell safe

Called in for a drink and listened to good guitarist / singer

Very very noisy but staff friendly and the food was nice for a pub chain

Great Saturday night boozer, always good tunes and a good atmosphere , mixed age crowd too.

Lovely just to sit outside with a pint and chill out

Staff were fantastic, very helpful and cheery, the roast was great. Would recommend 👌

Food is always excellent and very nice staff. Fresh food and reasonable prices.

Really enjoyed the evening here- great food

Fantastic food, great value for money too. Huge portions.

fantastic place ,great landlord,land lady. excellent atmosphere

I came here with my son for a quick drink. We were feeling a bit peckish so ordered the muscles which were the best I have ever had. We decided to come back in the evening at Becky’s advisement, when the live music was on. It was an amazing atmosphere. The staff were all extremely friendly and welcoming. Becky was extremely nice and helpful in her role and even advised us to try the Sunday roast the next day. It was amazing food. We weren’t rushed at all and was great value for money. I will definitely be back next time I am in Plymouth.

Very friendly, accommodating staff, thank you!

Didn't eat but a lovely pint of Tribute

Great place to eat and relax. Staff are great 👍

The food is amazing for the price. Really generous portion sizes as well. Staff are brilliant

Didn't have food , haven't been here for many a year , really enjoyed it

The entertainment was good to listen to. There is plenty of atmosphere here was enjoyable when we visited.

Left after 15 minutes, the server was a creep and kept finding excuses to touch my girlfriend. Was borderline drooling at the mouth which just highlighted poor dental hygiene. On Facebook appears to be called Andrew and not the first time.

We found this pub through a Google review stopped for roast dinner absolutely fantastic food lovely stuff little bit noisy as there was a football match on but when I asked if they could turn TV down a bit no problem at all beautiful pub lovely atmosphere great position on the Barbican extremely well priced.

We went for Sunday roast after reading the rave reviews, I can say it was average, the beef was of the pre sliced chewy tasteless variety as opposed to freshly carved. Plenty of food on the plate so no complaints there. Puddings were just ok, wouldn’t return but it was really busy so plenty of people must really enjoy it!

Sunday Lunch. Party of 6. Soup starter x 2 Mushroom and Coriander tasty enough, wasn't hot enough for my husband but mine was fine, the bread served with it was a bit hard (but ok once dunked in the soup!) Duck Spring Rolls x 1 - no complaints from the recipients 👍 Roasts 1 x Chicken, 1 x Pork, 1 x Nut Roast - all absolutely delicious 😋 generous portions of veg and gravy, the mashed swede and cauliflower cheese was a nice addition, absolutely no complaints there! 2 x Beef, again very generous portions, veg and gravy delicious, unfortunately let down by very tough, chewy beef 😒 Husband gave up and left it behind (we did inform waitress so as to give feedback to the kitchen) daughter cleared her plate but agreed the meat was hard work. All Yorkshire puddings (5) that came to the table were unfortunately various degrees of burnt. So all in all, mixed feelings, unfortunately let down by lukewarm soup, tough beef and burnt yorkies! Sorry Crown & Anchor for the criticism but you're best knowing so you can rectify but everything else was amazing! 😊 It was very busy so obviously very popular. Good central location. The staff were nice and the atmosphere was relaxed.

We had an amazing time here last weekend for a joint birthday party. We hired the function room for the evening, and the venue, service and atmosphere were incredible! We had a delicious buffet, which was very tasty and there was so much food! All the staff were brilliant, however, a big special shout out to Yanah who was so friendly, smiley and very lovely! She is a credit to the Crown and Anchor, thank you so much for a fab evening! :)

What a place!! Went on the Saturday and booked a table for lunch on Sunday, amazing service, amazing food and what an awesome place to spend remembrance Sunday, and the music was amazing 😍

Had Sunday Roast after the Remembrance Day Service - cannot fault it. Food as always was delicious and great value for money. The bar was extremely busy due to the Service that day and live entertainment late afternoon. A fantastic atmosphere and despite all of the stuff being run off their feet with it being so busy, they still provided an excellent and friendly service to all customers. Highly recommend here for food and drinks.

Had a roast on Sunday and it was absolutely lovely. Huge portions in both adults and child’s. It was remembrance Sunday so really busy but the bar staff were fab! Entertainment was spot on, had a great time! Also had lunch there on Saturday and again faultless service!

Absolutely amazing food and service, would certainly visit again. Thankyou

Have been multiple times and always had an amazing meal. We went recently and had the roast which was amazing! Favourite pub on the Barbican

WHAT AN EXCELLENT LUNCHTIME EXPERIENCE FOR A FAMILY ANNIVERSARY .WE ALL PAID FOR THE £16.95 2 COURSE LUNCH >THE STARTERS WERE VERY TASTY AND WE ALL SAID THE PORTIONS WERE MASSIVE !.THE MAINS WERE OF A SIMILAR EXCELLENT STANDARD AND ALL FOOD ARRIVED SWIFTLY AND HOT .LOVELY DRINKS SELECTION FAIRLY PRICED AS WELL >FROM THE BAR STAFF TO THE LOVELY WAITERS WE WERE IMPRESSED >CANT REALLY SEE HOW THEY CAN IMPROVE ANYTHING !.THOROUGHLY RECOMMENDED

Best pub on the Barbican and the food is amazing. 2 courses for £16.95 and was one of the best roast I’ve had! Have also eaten on other days and was just as happy with the food.

On arrival in Plymouth we decided to give this place a try as it was recommended by a friend. I’ve never had better food in a pub. I had the Thai monkfish curry and it was lovely. The woman behind the bar couldn’t be anymore friendlier and service was the best. Thank you for making our evening the best.

Good friendly pub with a good atmosphere

Good meal which was appreciated after a busy day of work. It was nice to come here to eat, have a drink and unwind. The location is good right by the harbour

Just had snacks but s lovely time was had.

Great pub for a night out. Reasonable prices. Amazing location.

Roast Beef with Yorkshire Pudding was lush, nothing fancy, just good good and plenty of it. Does a really good vegan Nut Roast as well.

Went for a Sunday Roast. Was OK.

Great little pub with the nicest of people running it. Lovely warm welcome and fast efficient service. Lovely and clean and cosy. Ordered the rump steak and to be honest, at just over £12 pp, down South, we didn’t expect much. We Northerners pay much more than that in our pubs. Then it arrived, goodness me, it was absolutely delicious, cooked to perfection and accompanied by gorgeous chips, peas and loads of crispy onion rings and mushrooms. After 3 days of not very nice hotel food (another area) we were delighted 😀 So, highly recommend this pub, just wish we didn’t live 200 miles away. 5 stars for staff, service, food and warm welcome. Thankyou

Great lunchtime experience. Best burger ever! Fast and pleasant customer service, would definitely recommend for a good lunch.

Went at the weekend for lunch. Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and really lovely food. Have been a few times and never disappoints. Highly recommend.

Visited a Few times for a drink and always a great atmosphere. So I thought I'd bring family in for lunch. We all thoroughly enjoyed our well presented lunch. The staff were very friendly and attentive. Will be making it a regular haunt now!

Popped in last weekend for a few drinks with friends. Brilliant Atmosphere. We were meant to be going pub to pub but the food looked great so ended up staying for dinner and a few more. Nearly 4 hours in fact! Food was brilliant. Great staff polite and very efficient. First port of call on the Barbican from now on... Thanks for a great night guys.

We wandered around the Barbican and found ourself pulled into this one, it was lively, the rugby was on and it seemed very friendly. We only stayed for one as the Guinness was absolutely awful ( didn’t finish either) The food that came out looked fresh and very good in good size portions. Shame about the Guinness, we noticed the Guinness certificate above the bar dated 2020/21 , hopefully they can sort the Guinness to get a new certificate and we can pop back for food 🙏

Great pub with a great atmosphere,food and friendly staff with the bonus of being a dog friendly pub as well.

Has to be my favourite pub on the Barbican! A great pub in every way, lasagne was amazing as is the food every time I have eaten here, shout out to Charmaine who served me today!

Bartender was very helpful with recommending a English beers. We ordered the fish and chips and the owner added 2 monk fish for my wife and I to try. Everything was very good. Definitely recommend for dinner!

The blandest lasagna I’ve ever tasted. Weirdest, puffy cheese at the top that takes up half the dish. 1 bite and I put it down, my Italian toddler who loves anything pasta related barely touched it. It tasted like it was left in the rain,...

Edit: manager contacted me and swiftly offered a refund and a sincere apology. The blandest lasagna I’ve ever tasted. Weirdest, puffy cheese at the top that takes up half the dish. 1 bite and I put it down, my Italian toddler who loves anything pasta related barely touched it. It tasted like it was left in the rain, brought back in to be reheated then served. Staff didn’t even bother to ask how it was. 0/10 don’t waste your money!

Firstly the staff were so friendly and all very happy especially Charlotte. I had roast chicken it was absolutely delicious, my husband and the fish and chips, He also said it was very good too. Highly recommend. Dog friendly too.

So had really high hopes for this Sunday lunch, come here often for drinks and decided the day before to give it a try……after reading the reviews why not !!!! how disappointed were we 😢 Starters were nice. The roast itself is not a roast,...

My wife and I visited on a lovely Sunday morning, walked in and asked for a table for two for a Sunday dinner. We had passed this place hundreds of times but never thought of eating here before. We read the reviews so here we...

Looking around the Barbican at Lunchtime as we all fancied Fish & Chips we looked at the prices Most were between £15.00 to £20.00 which seemed at expensive but here it was £12.95 so we thought we would try here What a lovely welcome the...

Good atmosphere, with food and drink to match

Very helpful, welcoming and friendly staff for our eclectic family group. Helped us find a suitable place to sit and move around furniture to accommodate us. Food was excellent value and very fresh and well cooked. We had fish and chips and the special if...

My favourite place for Sunday roast in the heart of the Barbican. Quality food for a very reasonable cost. No aunt Bessies here, proper home made Yorkshire puddings are incredible. Salcombe real ales on tap and decent affordable wine. Extremely friendly staff all set in a pleasantly modern nautical setting. Right on the Barbican waterfront. They even show live premiership football. What’s not to like.

The fish was all batter and no fish, mushy peas were very dry, will not go back

Great pub. Great food, good service and all well priced!

Very welcoming pub, food was nice, clean and tidy. Took a while to find the menu on line. But the food the 4 of us had was all tasty, and they had the football on!

Looking for somewhere to eat and noticed the “Specials Board” advertising rump steak and trimmings, which ordered. Excellent value for money, steak had beautiful flavour and cooked exactly as ordered. Cheerful and prompt service by Charmaine and Charlie (well known double act?) which all in...
