When we walked in we were greeted by Jess who was so welcoming and immediately arranged our check in and taking us to our room and checked we had everything and if there was anything else we needed. The room was very nice, with a kettle and hair dryer, towels, shower gel, and shampoo. There was ample tea, coffee, milk and two small packs of biscuits. After settling in we then went down to the bar to chill and check there was a table available for the evening which we were told was ready whenever we were. We ordered our meal which was amazing I had the Hunters Chicken which I can really recommend and my wife had southern fried chicken which she said was fantastic, believe me the portions are not mean.
I had arrange it as a surprise weekend for my wife as it was her birthday a couple of days before and the weekend was our wedding anniversary. And as a surprise for her, had with a great deal of help from our son to get her family together who would arrive on the Saturday and be staying as some had travelled from as far away as Southern Ireland. 
Our hosts were very attentive and we had an amazing time on the Saturday as I had organised a trip to a local Gin Distillery called "Exmoor Distillery". The tour and talk given by John and his wife Nicola was so interesting and informative (and the samples were good as well).
Then it was back to the Anchor Inn for the family meal. I must say the staff were so helpful. Thank you Lucy for looking after us. 
Again the food was exceptional and I did get a chance to speak to the chef who always seemed to be there as he did our breakfasts as well and they will set you up for the day.
I can't recommend this place highly enough, dog friendly as well and if I can find an excuse to stay there again I will.
Than you  Darren and Steph, Jess and Lucy, the chef whose name I didn’t get and the rest of the staff for making a very nice weekend for us.

Wonderful friendly atmosphere from staff and locals.

Absolutely lovely place for Sunday lunch. They accommodated 18 of us on a nice big table and made the dogs welcome too. The Sunday lunch was delicious, hot and of great quality and the staff were super. The pub is traditional looking on the putsidr but has a bright airy feeling inside. Very welcoming.

Big group for Sunday lunch. Very happy.

A really lovely spot, warm welcome and great beer

They let us park and stay the night in our motorhome - few better places or views to wake up to

A stunning location beside the river 

A varied menu of home cooked food with something for everyone 

Highly recommended

A priceless spot

Overnight stop with a pub meal. Big level car park opposite side of road to pub. Parked next
 to the river. Very tranquil and dog walking option beside car park. Pub meal very good staff welcoming and good atmosphere. Dogs welcome will be back.

Trip away in the van

Stopped here for lunch and were welcomed warmly and shown to a table by the wood burner.  We spoke to four different members of staff who were all very friendly and helpful.  We shared starters of tempura prawns and brie wedges, which were delicious followed by a lovely plate of fish and chips.  Food and drink prices were good.  We would definitely return.

Warm welcome, friendly service and excellent food

Five of us went for the first time. Everyone was happy with their meal and I thought it was all done to a very good standard and well presented. If I found myself in the area I wouldn't hesitate to go there again.

Decent food in a nice setting

  Same meal on both occasions 
- Well cooked
- such good value
- lovely server, feel sure her name was Abbi, gave great overview on the local area, while remaining unbiased 
- always feel slightly unconfident when visiting a chain pub, but please don't
- will return when next in the area

 

Lovely,  2nd visit, tranquil, even when busy, as it is spacious, out and in

On entry, greeted in the bar area by locals vaping, a portent of what was to come. Kindly directed to the restaurant for our reservation, only for a confused look on the barmaids face as she told us another couple were sat in our allocated table. Offered table by the bar and toilets, not ideal but not an issue. Ordered a starter to share, followed by fish and chips for us both. Not a long wait before the fish and chips were delivered to the table. We said we ordered a starter to share, only to be given an eye roll and the comment 'we thought this was a side' by the waitress before she huffed, disappeared and came back with our starter to eat at the same time as our main.... At this point we still had no cutlery, so asked for this only to then be given the same attitude which made us feel we were putting them out. Waiter came along with said cutlery, no condiments were offered so I asked for some vinegar and red sauce, but was told bluntly 'No' to the red sauce I asked why and was told they didn't have any. I then spent the next half an hour whilst eating our starter and mains (at the same time) counting how many bottles of red sauce I could see on other tables - Grand total of 8 by the time we had finished! Overall,food was ok and big portions served . Service was terrible, felt like we were putting them out by asking for basics like cutlery to eat our dinner. Couldn't wait to leave as we didn't feel welcome in the slightest, not a great attitude to have in the 'hospitality' industry. Wouldn't return or recommend.

Poor service and attitude 

We had a mother and daughter day out and stopped here for lunch.  Our meals were delicious and plenty of it.  You will not be disappointed.  Reasonably priced and had a nice atmosphere, would definitely visit again.

Delicious food

We stayed here for 2 nights , it is a nice friendly pub with a lovely garden including a riverside seating area . We dined here on both evenings and the food was good . Our room was compact but very clean . Breakfast was not included but available at a reasonable cost , the good thing was that the menu included a good choice ranging from a full breakfast down to Scrambled Eggs on toast etc all priced accordingly .
It is in a nice location but public transport is very limited (a few buses a day) so a car is fairly essential. We said we would happily stay here again .
