The Anchor Inn - York

Mmmmmmmm. This place is great! I hit the buffet and piled my plate high with steak ale pie, yorkshire pudding, and veggie sides. Plus a beer of course. And for dessert, had the sticky toffee pudding that was out of this world. I'll definitely come back!

You have a massive choice of main dishes, including joints of beef and pork both cooked to perfection. There is plenty of other choice usually including Pork Belly, Lamb Shank, Chicken in Wine Sauce, Steak Pie, Salmon, Cumberland Sausage, Duck and a Vegetarian Option. There are at least five choices of vegetables as well as roast and very tasty boiled potatoes. The gravy is always thick and flavoursome. There are also many excellent puddings to choose from. All portions are more then generous to such an extent that you have to remember to leave room for the pudding. The pub is beautifully kept and the open fire a delight to sit in front of. The full range of meals are served every lunch time and evening. Opening times 12 2.30 and 5.30 11. Meals served 12 2. and 6.00 9.00 Monday to Saturday. Sunday open 12 10.30 meals served until 8pm. Well worth a visit.

Fantastic food in carvery style so there is no waiting for your meal. There is in incredible glass case displaying 10 or so different cakes as well as 5 hot puddings. The current dishes are usually Chicken with white wine sauce Salmon with white wine sauce Roast beef Roast pork Roast Turkey Cumberland Sausage Lamb Henry Pheasant or duck With a yorkshire pudding and as many vegetables as you like for £7.95.

Absolutely lovely place. Great atmosphere and super staff. Not to mention the food...absolutely delicious! Splendid mix of customers, families, couples, elderly, truly a family venue!

No matter what time you go or how busy the pub is and it gets very busy indeed, the food is always delicious and the staff always friendly.
