Lovely meal, 3 of us visited and paid £40 for 3 main meals with soft drink which was very good value. All of the staff we encountered were friendly and polite, our waitress was Maria, unfortunately I didn’t catch the name of the barman who served us but both of them are a credit to the establishment, very friendly and helpful. We are not local but would certainly return next time we are in the area!

The team at The Anchor could not have been more welcoming and accommodating, and helped us set up for a rugby game which was not easy to find. We didn't eat so can't comment on the food but the atmosphere was lovely, and a special shout out to Becky who went out of her way to help us. Thank you!

Cannot fault the service at the bar. The beer garden, and the enclosed are for familys/kids are superb. However, when it came to food we weren't so lucky. 5 of us ordered the Sunday roast. Either the beef/turkey duo or just the beef. We went and ordered at the bar 2 minutes apart from each other (stood one behind the other in the queue) and our separate orders came out 20 minutes apart. The vegetables were al dente (that is being kind), if not raw. The inside of the roast potatoes were grey and under cooked, the gravy comes in a gravy boat but we had to scoop it out in lumps if we wanted some. The stuffing was dry, brittle and more akin to granola, and the beef was as tough as leather to cut. Yorkie puds were lovely, though. The other meals from your normal menu served to other tables around us smelt and looked lovely. But it seems like you should be giving the Sunday roasts a miss until you have chefs capable of cooking them. Or send anyone who wants a roast next door to the carvery. Waiting staff were all brilliant, however it seemed as though you were very short staffed yesterday. Edit: Have since been back with my family after we were invited back to try the food again. A few of us had the black and blue burger among other things and it was absolutely lovely. Would definitely eat there again.

We have given this a 1Star, if it was possible, we would have rated it as zero. I waited at an empty Bar, to order for 5 Minutes, when I had ordered, the meal took 35 Minutes to arrive, we had two Apologies from the Staff, apparently there was no problems, other than that they were very busy. Personally, to me it didn't seem busy, there was one table of a group of Ladies who had already been served by the time we were seated, and a few people in the Bar area. We would definitely not be returning and would not recommend it to others.

We went here last Sunday lunchtime, not been here for years, can't remember when, wanted somewhere out of the town to eat. Quick few minutes drive up Goldington Road in Bedford from the town centre. We sat in the rather nice conservatory area, nicely decorated with all different items & colours, works really well, we had a katsu curry chicken with rice & chips, & hunters chicken with chips & a salad, i asked for my BBQ sauce on the side as I don't like too much,& prefer to put my own on, we also had a side order of cheesy garlic bread which was lovely. There were a few pieces of leaves in the salad which had gone soft, which i would have picked out if I had been at home, & one end of my chicken breast was slightly over cooked, quite brown & hard, but it was very thick, so they had to make sure it was cooked, which i just put extra sauce on. They also do coffee & cake for £3.49,which looked really good value, coffee out the machine & a good sized slice of cake, which was chocolate last week, we didn't try any as we were too full up, next time we will though as we won't have any extras with our meal, & there will be a next time as we think we have found somewhere really nice & pleasant to eat, with prices as good as anywhere else, also we both had pineapple & lemonade to drink, & the land lady offered more pineapple if needed which is really good,as it can be so weak, when they really portion it out, overall was a really nice experience, & we would recommend it for people to try.

Why would the manager argue with a customer who wasn’t happy about the volume of coca cola he received? It sounds to me like the pub deserves another low score review as this place has clearly gone down hill since I lived there 40 years ago. We had our dads 40th here and it was magic. Clearly customer service is a problem. Give the man a complimentary glass of coca cola you penny pinching Green King brewery bureaucrats. I tell you this wouldn’t happen under a socialist government. Austerity measures everywhere you look 👀

Although cooked very well and tasty the portions were poor. This establishment in my opinion was poor on portions considering the price I payed for the meal. I was done and dusted in ten minutes in my opinion a child’s meal. How ever over all experience kind friendly and very clean.

My steak was tough, the chips weren't cooked thoroughly and no one asked me how my meal was until I'd finished. My initial contact was excellent so I had high hopes. They did offer me a free dessert and to comp me the meal but I settled for a free drink as work paid for my meal. I will say the staff where polite but missed many opportunities to make things right prior to the end of my meal. I did debate on going to the Toby next door. As soon as I tried it I wished I had.

Went there to see the new refurb, and was very impressed. My family sat at a table and used the app to order food and drink. The food was a little pricey compared to the previous hungry horse days but the quality certainly made up for it. I ordered a steak which was cooked to perfection medium rare, much better than the previous rubber steaks I used to get. The waitresses 2 off had the whole restaurant satisfied working seamlessly together like a well oiled machine ensuring everybody's needs were catered for. On that particular night there was karaoke on and the bar was rammed, but the vibe and friendly energy carried through the building much better than the old clients it used to attract shall we say. Overall great makeover, great food, attentive staff and friendly atmosphere. Well worth a visit.

Won't return sadly and it was quite empty which should have been a warning to us. The person who served our food from the kitchen was not wearing a uniform/apron!! The Ship St Cuthberts Street have more or less the same menu where food is excellent and of a high standard so I will be going there in future but wanted to try somewhere different but bad mistake.

food was only ok, good job done by the chiefs but small portions for the price (Sunday roast around £14) the female bar staff was pleasant and friendly. friendly atmosphere from the locals. male bar man not so much. the waiters is what really let this place down, had to pretty much argue with them (4 visits to the table from 2 different waiter staff members) over what we ordered and payed for and what we got ...to finally receive 1 only extra 'pig in blanket' if we knew before hand the extra payment of the additional extra and 10 minute discussion and 10 minute wait time for the one only extra 'pig in blanket' certainly wouldn't of bothered ordering or bringing it up. was brought over in a rude manner, so badly it was actually comical to all the other paying guests in the restaurant area. some food was brought out cold was returned to be re heated and also had to ask 3 staff members before cutlery was brought over after the food had arrived. would not return for food. I'll go to the Toby carvery short walk from here.

This was a first visit &, on the whole, it was disappointing. I booked online & did not receive an email confirmation so called them & they confirmed the booking. When we arrived they did not have a reservation for us. Fortunately they had a vacant table. We used their App to order our food but this took a while because choices turned out to be not available. One of the party ended up with their 3rd choice! We ordered coffee & were informed that the coffee machine was not working. Eventually we were offered instant coffee, which we accepted. I will say the staff were apologetic & polite throughout & they cannot be held responsible for the shortages. My rating reflects this & my stars would have been lower if the waiting staff had not been as nice. They did refund the cost of the coffees. I was somewhat disappointed that there were so many unavailable items & suggest that whoever does the ordering does a better job. After all, they should have some idea of what is needed in the run up to Christmas. One coffee machine for such a large restaurant - really!

One pizza had hardly any cheese on it. The other one was very overdone.

I have ordered food quite a few times from here. The website says a meal for one is in a large container, I have ordered a few times and it only came in a large container once, it comes in a small container, so the description on the website is misleading. We usually order a set meal for two, but have stopped ordering this as the duck in it was very dry on more than one occasion. The Curry is great if you like onions (its mostly onions) and very watery. I think it depends on who is cooking, and on what night you order, as it varies quite a bit Overall the food is very very good from here, freshly cooked and piping hot, not a bit greasy, we cannot complain even although many times they get the order wrong. A great Chinese takeaway, but check what they give you.
