The Anchor in North Lincolnshire

Discovered they do breakfast here, so popped in for a spontaneous visit. Was pleasantly surprised. You can have a cooked or continental breakfast and keep going back to help yourself for a set price. Good range of food. Staff helpful. Would definitely visit again.

Ordered a bacon eater, presuming it was just a burger with bacon on. Mmmm, right so it was, presentation was ok ey, but can’t say the same for food. Burger was not cooked properly, If I hadn’t of checked then I’d probably either be sick as a dog or in hospital! Thankfully I trusted my instinct I’m no picky customer but it’s appalling to serve someone undercooked food! It’s not only disgusting but it’s dangerous!! Wouldn’t eat there again, do better, take the time to check your food before sending it!

Once again a great visit to the Anchor, we regularly stay in Scunthorpe when visiting family and always receive great food and service here. Tasty evening meal on the Friday and great buffet breakfast on the Saturday. Looking forward to more visits this year.

Self service cooked breakfast all you can eat tea and coffee £10.99 friendly and helpful staff good atmosphere. Ensure to enter your vehicle registration number or face a fine this is not pointed out to you so be aware of this. (parking thieves)

Excellent service both breakfast and dinner. The steak was cooked to perfection. The service is always friendly with Owen from dinner and Linda for breakfast, always pleasant, been coming here for years and always book this restaurant when on work travels.

Food was lovely! Well priced, seemed understaffed.

Not a bad breakfast.. its quite annoying how they gang you all up on adjoining tables though when only a few in: specially when you just want some peace

From being told there’s a wait time of 30-45mins for food we awaited at table with our drinks. On arrival of meals mmm have to say was shocked chips practically cold meals poor in presentation as for mine being the crispy double chicken burger was not impressed n plus no onion rings had arrived with order either at this point we tried to get service which seem to take forever eventually we were attended to and waiter re ordered chips for us and did say sorry for this happening. I cert feel this shouldn’t have happened I dine with friends many times at the red lion Bispham Beefeater the standards there 5 star rating absolutely fantastic service well looked after and food is amazing so I certainly feel Scunthorpe Anchor Beefeater needs to look at this and address this so diners in the future don’t have a similar experience as myself and friend did.

Just had a great family meal at the anchor Beefeater at Scunthorpe the food was delicious. The table service from Erin was second to none Excellent

Lovely breakfast. The food was a buffet style arrangement but all lovely and hot. Linda and Jess welcomed us warmly. Recommend

Xmas dinner never again! 2 slices of beef 1 shop bought frozen Yorkshire pudding. Shop bought frozen roast potatoes.

We had a lovely Christmas lunch yodat at the Anchor, Scunthorpe. The atmosphere, food and service were excellent

Excellent quality food, drink and service

I recently visited the Beefeater in Scunthorpe, and my experience was outstanding thanks to both the exceptional service and the quality of the food. Natasha, one of the staff members, truely went above and beyond to ensure our visit was perfect. Her friendly demeanor, professionalism, and attention to detail made us feel incredibly welcomed. She was attentive without being intrusive, offering helpful recommendations and ensuring everything was just right throughout the meal. Natasha’s exemplary service paired with the delicious food made this a memorable dining experience. I highly recommend the Beefeater in Scunthorpe and will certainly return in the future.

Brilliant as ever. Regular haunt for a few drinks at the end of a busy week. See you next weekend

Service was excellent. We were in a large party and didn't have to wait too long for food which arrived for all of us at the same time. Food was mainly ok but a couple of steaks weren't quite cooked as requested

Went for breakfast great to see the buffet back very busy but well organised..

My steak was full of grizzle & the beer was expensive

Called for breakfast meeting, this being the second time in a month. The first time was not great, but I thought we would give it another try. I wish we didn't. Maybe when they first served up 7.00 its not so bad, but we went at 9.00 eggs were like bullets, and the rest of the food was really bad way overcooked, not burned but dried out. We have decided next time to go morrisons. At least it's freshly cooked and better quality, in my opinion.

Pre booked our table when we got there waited ten minutes to be seated even though we where five minutes early. Ordered our meal .which took absolutely ages. While waiting for our meal which by the way it wasn't a busy day . Another couple wated ages to pay for there meal . When we eventually got our steaks we ordered medium mine was nearly rare my partners was well done . The peas and steak were cold the only hot food was the chips . When we eventually got asked if our meal was ok we told him about the steaks which we had eaten half of and didn't have the time to wait for another to be cooked. So disappointed 😞. Last time we went it was a similar sinareo but put it down to it being a bit busier.

Went for breakfast. Excellent cc choice, nicely presented and hot buffet cooked well and of good quality

Excellent experience fantastic food and a special mention must go to Jack and Josh despite being incredibly busy coped magnificently: 5 star treatment. They are a credit to the company!!

The Anchor is a strange place, it's food is average yet charges a higher rate. The staff try to push extra on you when ordering. The website offers more than it actually offers, we couldn't get a subday carvery, though it clearly advertised it on a Google search. This needs addressing.

Great pub / eatery, friendly slick service, good atmosphere. Good selection of food and drink at reasonable prices. Would recommend.

We visited on a Wednesday evening with no pre booking. We were seated straight away and a high chair brought over immediately. Staff were friendly and welcoming, it’s still table service which is a nice change as most pubs are now order at the bar. Menu isn’t huge but has enough to pick from. We all enjoyed our meals and everything was warm and served quickly. Top tip for kids: order the side order of Mac and cheese instead of the kids one if they won’t eat vegetables 😂

Shown to the table and drinks order taken. Ten minutes later and drinks still not served. Drinks ordered again and they turn up 8 minutes later. Only one choice of three meats for the Sunday roast and this was at 14:15 pm. Service was terrible. First time I have been here for years and still no better.

Lovely breakfast and the lady that served us was nice. sadly the coffee machine was broken only a few coffees available so I can’t give full marks, also the Mens toilet stank of wee and that was despite being cleaned. This is nothing to do with the staff more the owners need to sort it out, even the outside is looking tired. But we went there for a nice breakfast and that is what we got.

Our server stew was amazing he gave us high fives and he gave my friend 6 corn on the cobs and he called us his friends so we got 3 tomato ketchup pots which is amazing I like stew ask for him as your server especially if you have kids.

Good food, good service and good value

Jack who looked after us was very professional and very pleasant

Family get together - not many people there so surprised it took so long to be served. Food was very nice.

Lovely breakfast as usual and staff are amazing. Linda always sorts us out with anything we need. Lovely experience and the kids enjoy choosing what they would like. Our local favourite

breakfast with the grandchildren, lots of choice, exceptionally good value.

Absolutely worst fillet steak I've ever had, I couldn't eat over 60 percent, totally full off fat, the steak came with 5mm of over cooked carbon on the top. I complained and all they knocked off was £4.75, to top it all we got charged for sweets we didn't have so had to get that refunded.

First visit excellent. Already booked for a group of us next month

Staff were very pleasant and helpful especially Linda and the chef carol

Great pub and great food. Had a really nice meal with my wife. Would definitely recommend

Nice food, great service, decor could do with up dating though. Overall a nice experience

We visit every Sunday morning for breakfast, simply because our son has an eating disorder and it is the only place we can sit as a family and enjoy a meal. Service is excellent and all staff are super welcoming and friendly.

Excellent food and excellent service *****

Poor service, second occasion being refused a table due to insufficient staff.

Very clean, tidy pub. Polite staff, would visit again.

The waiter Jack, was friendly and kind who served us. Very welcome environment, all staff were professional and food arrived as expected within reasonable time.

Zoe and the team were amazing for a large group of 45 celebrating a surprise 60th wedding anniversary. From initial enquiry to the actual event was seamless and professional. Thank you to everyone.

Sunday lunch was excellent couldn't have been better

Far too expensive for what you get. Food was

Been here in the past and always pretty good pretty good.Not a complaint about the food.Don't know whats going on in Scunthorpe , but I have tried to book a table here and 4 other places .Can't book a table for 7 adults and two children,Been told no availability at any of them.Tried different times in the afternoon Sunday the 15th whats going on ???

I had Pie and Mash. It was really tasty. Worth a visit.

Good food, excellent staff. Enjoyed the meal. Great. Still good value.

The burgers are best in Sunthorpe

Family of four, dining for breakfast. Polite, efficient staff who seated us quickly & explained where everything was. Everything that one requires for a breakfast & refills constantly coming out. At £10.99 a person it is at the upper end of our price bracket, but it set us up for a busy day ahead.

Came in for a birthday meal and it was so cold in the restaurant food was ok but nothing special.

Very neat and tidy. Staff very friendly, good service. Nice pool table.

You get a lovely smile of the staff and your meal is always hot

Had a fantastic meal, cheeky cocktails and great service. Could not fault the food or staff 06.08.2024 5:30pm. Definitely recommend a visit here.

Great breakfast as always linda is the reason we keep coming back fantastic service

Owen was very accommodating and the service was very prompt. Everything was up to the good standard that you would expect from a beefeater restaurant. Thank you for doing an important job.

Monday steaks . Had the steak sampler . 4 x 4ozsteaks with chunky chips . Was spot on . Not been in for a long time but definitely be back again sooner

Waitress was very rude No apology for getting order incorrect.....Twice!

Visited for breakfast - really nice food, fresh and tasty. On the negative - when we arrived we didn’t have very nice welcome, felt like we were an inconvenience by one member of staff. The place was extremely quiet but still seemed very stressed. Had such great service from the Grimsby site so was just disappointing with the service.

Had to look for staff to get served and then go to the toilet to find both cubicles with locks broken. Door kept opening so had to hold it shut at the same time as evacuating my bowls

Very good vegetarian food and friendly staff.

Called in for a breakfast with my work colleagues. Top notch all around, polite and happy staff, clean, welcoming, and only £10.99 all you can eat. Absolutely brilliant. We will definitely return when we are working in the area again. Thanks

Tye table was booked for a fathers dsy meal. Got there nice and early. Showed to the table. The waitress came over, and the meal I wanted was not available. So, I had an alternative of 10 oz ribeye (rare) with added garlic king prawns. When asking the waitress about meals, she did not have a clue. She came out with excuse I only been here a week. Did not go and get advice, or ask another team member. She did quite a lot of thinking. I think it comes with sauce. I think it comes with veg, I think it comes with salad. Meals were ordered, so we're drinks. Partner asked for a coke. I asked for a cider. 2 cokes eventually arrived. Then, a cider eventually arrived. The meals arrived. My steak with the added kings prawns, the king prawns amounted to 2, which were hardly king size, the added garlic king prawns was £4.99. I was expecting more than 2. Which worked out at a fraction under £2.50 each. Both weren't succulent but tasted more like rubber, so overcooked. The steak was done nicely. It came with a soggy flat mushroom half a tomato, some rocket, and 8 triple cooked chips. Hardly generous potions. My partner had the surf and turf, again 2 overcooked rubbery prawns. Not a great experience considering it was supposed to be a special occasion.

Everything on our plates was inedible down to the peas which tasted stale, I had the smothered chicken and it wasn't just smothered it was annihilated dreadful and expensive.

Good value for money and tasty menu

First time visiting and it was really good. We were stopping next door in the premier inn for the night and purchased the meal deal with the room. 2 course meal and a drink and all you can eat breakfast the next morning for £27.99 great value and the dinner and breakfast were both equally as good. Our young children loved the kids' meals they had an ate every bit. Friendly staff throughout and fast service.

Haven't been for years so with a 40% off food thought I'd give it a try again. Don't think I'd bother coming back. Ordered to be told the extractor fans had suddenly stopped so there may not be any food. We asked to be updated in the next 5 minutes but took the waiter nearly 20 to finally come back to us to say they would be cooking our food and it was 70 degrees in the kitchen. Other customers were told to leave. Food came and waitress nearly dropped the steak knife on my foot (I had sandles on too) the meal was very small a steak one small mushroom and less than a hand full of loaded chips for £22. Luckily we were not over hungry or we would have been more disappointed. Food medioka in the end but the disruption of the fans going off and kept waiting ill not be back soon.

Shabby, overpriced, chef has no pride in there dishes, plates dirty

Great place for breakfast, lunch or dinner. And great service too.

Took my mum for breakfast. £10.99 each and this is all that was available. 5 mushrooms and 3 slices of bacon. Staff sent my mum away saying we had no table even though I was already waiting for them. Luckily she called me and I caught her before she went home. Made a point of thoroughly checking a £50 many times in the light. Very embarrassing when I’d invited my mum out and my uncle who traveled from Canada to see us. Literally went home hungry. Shocking

Massive shout out to Zoe, Karl and Phoebe regards the outstanding customer service they gave our party of 13 last night. It was the grandparents joint 80th birthday and having phoned ahead to ask if they could do anything special Karl said he'd sort it. Upon arrival Zoe then backed up Karl's word having ordered special 80th bunting and decorations from Amazon for our table. Free bottle of Prosecco and 2 x small gift bags with chocolates in shortly followed which started the evening perfectly. The drinks then flowed and the food shortly followed after.....the 10oz Ribeye was reported to be from it's receipient the best steak ever!!! Phoebe was also attentive throughout the night and was always there as / when we needed her. All in all wonderful memories made due to a caring, attentive and thoughtful restaurant team that simply went the extra mile from the moment we arrived......thank you so much from us all !!!

In need of refurbishment with stains on the stools and wobbly arms on chairs. Over priced drinks and average food. There are lots of better establishments in Scunthorpe and the surrounding area.

Had the 10 oz steak and my friend had the Salmon. Both meals excellently cooked. Many thanks.

The food is expensive for what it is, but that's just my opinion. Calamari starter is very nice and the '74 burger very tasty. Very good, attentive service. Nice surroundings and decor.

Good dinner and breakfast. But I hate being asked if I booked (no) and then a lot of frowning at a computer when the place is half empty.

The service was quite underwhelming. The management's behavior was especially cringeworthy, as they harshly insulated me during a pleasant afternoon out with my significant other. Their actions were uncalled-for and totally unacceptable. It's apparent that they lack the necessary expertise and manners to conduct themselves with basic respect. I highly recommend steering clear of this establishment. Micheal should not be a manager he lacks the knowledge or the basic respect for guests at this establishment. Avoid.

We take the grandkids here for breakfast for their birthdays. We love that the kids eat free and they can have what they want. The staff are brilliant and so friendly, we always feel welcome. It does help that the grandkids are well behaved.

Took my mum to dinner last week. She had fillet steak and I had curry and we shared the apple pie for dessert. This is a very decent place to eat. Lots of room so you don't feel on top of each other. Service was great and food came in good time. Mum said the steak was nice and the curry was great too. Apple pie could have been a little warmer but overall a very nice dinner.

We come here every week,the service we get from Louise and Allison is amazing,however the last two weeks I've found a hair in my meal and as you can see into the kitchen we know the chefs don't wear hats. This is not acceptable and needs reviewing by management.Hopefully someone will take notice of this and try to improve the kitchen standards.

Family outing for my sisters birthday . All staff were very friendly, especially Alison who was extra nice to my sister . Food was good and reasonably priced with the discount applied .

Pleasant midday meal with family

Regular-ish visitors, my Dad loves the lasagne. There was some maintenance work being done so everyone was down the bottom end but no problem with that. Not massively busy (Monday lunchtime) but enough to have the server running around as he was on his own. Despite that he made sure we had everything we needed and we weren’t waiting long for anything. At the end he asked if we had a voucher, which we did but had forgotten about (last time we were in we didn’t get asked). He used it on the bill and then gave us another one. We have seen him before, I wish I’d taken note of his name. Anyhoo nice relaxed lunch with great service.

Chips hard in the middle. Also £3.50 for a bowl of chips however the bowl is only a little bigger than a vinegar portion. Awful. Will not be coming again. Also 2 pints cost £11.80 day light robbery!

First visit. Great menu, lovely staff. Quiet busy but didn't wait long for food. Would recommend

Very good Beefeater. Quality of the food is as you'd expect, and the cocktail offer is a great addition too.

Get yourself here for breakfast..Best tenner spent..although the orange juice is now cordial instead of fresh orange..yuck.!!

Fantastic place, I'm a frequent visitor here mainly due to the excellent service from all the staff, they are all welcoming, friendly, professional and go above and beyond to make your experience a special one. The choice of drinks is adequate and all meals I have consumed have been well prepared, presented and tasted lovely.

Food was delicious my girls love the variety of food, the staff was great Alison and Karl mainly couldn't do enough for us they just made our Sunday morning breakfast treat a pleasant one 😀 we will 100% be returning again very soon! thank you again Alison and Karl 😁

Great service from josh and Jack at the bar this evening, the manager Karl even came over to our table and poured my wine. Will definitely be back,

Great service from josh and Jack tonight

The food was very tasty and came out all together and nice and hot. Best thing was our waitress Alison. She was so friendly,an absolute star and a real credit to the restaurant.

My granddaughter is coeliac she came for a meal with grandmother and godson on Monday 11th of March she stated that she was coeliac and was assured the her food was gluten free. It was not she had a severe reaction to gluten and is lot of pain with ulcers in her mouth and a severe swollen tummy. this is so unfair she struggles to find places to eat as it is.

Excellent service from Allison. Even though it was busy nothing was too much trouble. Was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. It exceeded our expectations. Will definitely return

Really disappointed this time around the young lady who served us was snappy and didn't have much patience with us. The food was ok but the new menu has not much choice. I chose the steak n found it strange that there is no choice of steak sauces apart from peppercorn when I asked the young lady if there was a possibility for any alternative she rolled her eyes and replied well no it's not on the menu so no. Shame because I used to enjoy coming here.

Excellent meal and service from Allison always goes above and beyond, will be back

Great food and fantastic help and service from Allison - very helpful and attentive even during busy times

Really pleasant evening with the family. Great food, evidently cooked with care and excellent service. Warned us of a possible delay to service, but was then served promptly. We'll be back!

Been coming here for the past few days as I'm in the hotel next door. The food is nice. And the servers are great. I've had Allison serve me for the past couple of days and she is great. Always polite, funny, and service with a smile 😊

Early evening, quiet dinner with my dad. Relaxed atmosphere and superb, very attentive service from all, especially Allison. Good choice of alcohol free beers, Punk IPA, a step up from the usual Becks Blue or similar. Only complaint was the crust on dad's pie was a bit too well done and hard. Would recommend
