OMG.... The best burgers, the decor is so unique and the employees are so personable.... you will not believe how, with all above, reasonably priced it is! We crave their burgers when we are snowbirding! We have yet to find burgers that come close to theirs when we're out west. read more

This place never disappoints - the olive burger is my personal favorite and it had been a number of years since I had one - so I forgot to take a photo of it. The Anchor is a classic harbor town old school bar with cold drinks, great burgers and staff who add a ton of personality to the place. If you're in the area and like burgers - just go. read more

Anchor Bar - Bars Near Me - Superior, Wisconsin

I absolutely loved everything about this place from the menu and menu humor to the decor and atmosphere to the super solid food. Really good burger and fries, and lots of other burgers I'd like to try. That's why I had to buy a sweatshirt. Honestly the one thing I'll say though is that the people (mainly the two that I dealt with) were not too nice or friendly. Other than the guy that loaned me his phone charger (Tristan, who I bought a drink for his kindness) the people, not the service, we're a little tough edged and for no reason. Maybe that's how they're supposed to be (and if it is, disregard this comment), but after I left (and I gave a big tip but didn't get a thank you or a smile), I can't say I had the best feeling. Even when I bought the sweatshirt (35 bucks) it felt like I was inconveniencing the woman. I'll be back for sure and I would tout the place too because it's just so damn good. read more

This dive bar was recommended to us! Definitely a must! The entrance can be intimidating as there is limited standing room and very busy. We didn't wait long. Sat at the bar. Mostly beer choices. I had a Bloody Mary with was loaded with garnishes. Service was kind and quickly. The food was awesome! Homemade French fries! We will be back! read more

Cash only, but the best burger and fries around! Best part is the fries are low salt which is super helpful! You want salt? add it! LOVED this place! read more

Absolutely ridiculous that they even call themselves a professional establishment. The bar was disgustingly dirty. We went in for dinner. The front area was full. So, we tried to sit in the back dining area. A waiter promptly told us that area was closed. There was no other seating available other than at the bar. While there was bar stools to sit at, the entire bar was covered in dirty dishes and other garbage. We then asked the bartender if we could sit outside at the outdoor dining area. She very rudely said, "no, I'm not coming out there to take orders or deliver food. After taking one last look around at this disgusting dump with their rude, staff, shriveled, shrewd, decrepit bar staff, we decided to cut our losses. Save yourself some time. McDonald's is better. read more

Outstanding fantastic fabulous job everything is perfect. Very casual atmosphere and friendly service. This place deserves the utmost attention in the quality of food and services provided for the customers that really appreciate the experience they experienced. Burgers are fantastic as well .

Thank You you Anchored to your Bu read more

Anchor Bar - The man that's anchored to Anchor IN mmmm - Bars Near Me - Superior, Wisconsin

Best burgers in the state. Where else can you get a pitcher of beer and 2 burger baskets for about $20. Enough said. Be prepared to wait during lunch and dinner due to the tight seating setup. read more

Pretty cool dive bar in the older part of town, where some of the warehouses are located. This is most likely a spot where the waitresses and bartender know 90% of the customers. The interior has a definite nautical theme, with a lot hanging from the ceiling, walls and any spot they can find basically. I figured I'd visit one of the supposed best burgers in the area on my visit to Duluth. As far as food goes, they dont have much on their menu, other than burgers. I ordered the 2/3 lb burger, since most of them are only 1/3lb. They don't ask how you want it cooked, but it comes out about medium well. I added fries, which are fresh cut and good. One minor hangup for me was that you can choose fried or raw onions, I asked for fried, but they brought out raw. Overall prices are very reasonable, considering the quality and they include tax in the price. The burger patty was not really seasoned much, and tasted like somethng my parents would have made when I was a child. I'd recommend trying it at least once, if you are a burger lover like me. While this was by no means the best burger I've had, it was pretty good for a bar. read more

Ate tonight at The Anchor. Burger was great, fries better. Out waitress, Barb, was terrific. Prompt, courteous, and a lady who took care of our every need. We'll be back. Thanks, Don G. dgerling@gmail.com read more

Awesome handmade burgers, toasted buns on the grill and great home-made fries! It is a local bar and grill in the dive bar tradition. Locals clearly like this place, as it was full when arrived and full when we left. The staff was friendly and funny the suggestions the waitress made were excellent. A local charm worth a visit for sure. read more

I love Anchor! Not one ounce of attitude in here from the friendly bartender even though this is a dive in the middle off a quiet industrial area in Superior. We had just came from downtown Duluth and everyone wants to be by the water in the middle of the action eating at chain restaurants. Just cross the bridge 5 miles away and you will find a cheap great burger joint and we were away from the craziness. They have a large patio. The draft beers were $4. My blue cheese burger with homemade fries were only $6. The bar was filled with nautical collectibles hanging from the ceiling. There was a quirky booth filled with books, making it looked like a cozy library corner. I can't wait to come back again and try more burgers on their menu! read more

Anchor Bar - Jalapenoburger, fries and spotted cow beer - Bars Near Me - Superior, Wisconsin

Just seeing the reviews was why we chose this, the waitress made straight eye contact with us than told some other guest to "get the f***" out of the way. I get it, you're busy, but no one even cared to greet us and we're from out of town. Saw the cook pick his nose and go back to flipping burgers. No gloves... lots of advertising and hype... just not for us.. read more

Looking for a dive bar where the burgers are tasty but cheap? This is the place for you! We stopped here on the way through town after making a pit stop at the brewery down the street. For some reason, the internet service in the area was down and any business operating on internet couldn't accept credit cards (and their cash machine wasn't working either). We were fortunate to grab a 20 spot next door at the bar which still used a land line on their cash machine. $20 will get two people a couple excellent burgers with fries and even have some money left over. Their flagship burger which has a full pound of meat on it is only $6.75! Most of the other burgers are around $5. They come with chips but if you want the hand cut skin-on fries, it will cost a $1.25 upcharge which is fair enough, given how cheap the burger is. I ordered the blue cheese burger. I was expecting some crumbled blue cheese on top but it was just a bunch of blue cheese dressing slopped on. The burger was still decent tasting though. My guy had the reuben burger which had sauerkraut and swiss on top with a side of thousand islands dressing. I discovered that dressing as a dip for fries is outstanding. He really enjoyed it. The buns are soft. I would have liked to have mine toasted some so it wasn't soggy with all that dressing. The waitress was efficient. It was packed on a sunday afternoon so there wasn't much chit-chat. Plus we weren't drinking so it wasn't going to be a bigger ticket lunch. There is lots of kitsche on the wall (and none if it looked dusted). Some definite history at the place. There is a cute little "library" nook right at the entrance if you want a private surrounded table. Some old books were on the shelves. I would have liked to see what was in there. Taste-wise, I give the burger a 3.5. They got the 4 star for being inexpensive. I think next time I would order a regular cheese burger or a bacon cheese burger and some bbq sauce if they have it. My fries were nice and crispy and yummy with the thousand islands dressing for dipping. read more

Hands down, the Best ! Great Burgers, the Anchor Burger is the best & great taps ... 100 % Wisconsin !!

Holy moly! I have NEVER had such a good burger before. I've never even heard of Anchor Bar until a good friend introduced me to them a few weeks back. I feel like I've been missing out on the BEST burgers I've ever had in my life. I can't even explain how delicious this burger was. It's juicy, cooked just right and seasoned so so well. I got the Blue Cheese Burger and was pretty skeptical about at first just cause I'm usually not a fan of blue cheese. But man, this burger changed my mind. I'm still raving about this specific burger to my fiancé who is honestly sick of hearing me speak about it so constantly because he missed it on it. Haha. There best known burger is the Olive Burger which consist of green olives and cream cheese. Wanna know the best part? Most of their burgers are about 6ish dollars or less!! For such phenomenal burgers, I can't believe it's that cheap! 6ish DOLLARS OR LESS!! I'm drooling just looking at the photo. I'm slightly upset their so far away from me but I know I will definitely make my way up to Superior, WI again just for this bar & grill. read more

The unassuming outside hides phenomenal burgers and atmosphere inside! They only serve burgers and they don't need to serve anything else because they are that good. Definitely try the Olive Burger and always add the fries - they make them in house and are delicious. I would have added a picture of it but it was devoured too quickly. Service was fast & friendly. Will definitely stop in again! read more

I would love to recommend The Anchor because it is my hometown burger joint but it's hard to tell people to go someplace when I know they will be treated poorly. It's supposed to be a kitschy tongue in cheek attitude from the staff but it just comes off as rude. Too bad, the food is good. read more

I get the rude waitress persona or whatever. When you downright screw up, don't accuse your customers of lying. If I said I ordered my meal through Uber eats (and I did), I meant it. Take your restaurant off the app and stop inconveniencing service industry workers and your customers. Also, I am aware that you only take cash, I have been dealing with the issue for over a half hour with the poor girl that sat at your shitty establishment and waisted her time while waiting for my meal only to be told she wouldn't be able to collect her tip and her time is not being paid for, I certainly didn't need to be told three additional times that you only take cash. Figure it out. Edited to add: I was made aware of the inability to take a card by the Uber eats driver who was unable to pay for the food with a card, it was the whole reason I had to call the establishment in the first place. I assumed since the restaurant was on Uber eats and I was able to place an order, I was able to order on Uber eats and could receive my order. Assumed things changed with payment systems. It is not the customers responsibility to regulate how you do your business. read more

Great food ! Delicious for a bar and simple. Cash only , love it. Great service and neat place with tons of cool stuff on the walls. Check it out read more

Like traveling back in time, pretty simple place, often busy and sometimes that can make it slow so give yourself some time to take this place in. Oh and bring cash read more

Amazing service, fantastic food and tap beer! Prices are very reasonable! Not a fancy place. But if you want a beer and a burger, this is five stars for sure! read more

You will see a lot of poor reviews of this place because of the service and comments on said reviews saying it is part of the schtick...we experienced none of it. The service could have been a little faster as we were seated at the bar, but once someone came by it was pretty fast and food was delicious. Just what you expect from a "greasy spoon" in a small town, great servings and less expensive prices. read more

First time here. Promise I'll revise this if warranted after my next visit. Heard a bit of hype from friends, and after watching a DDD episode. Service was good. Atmosphere at the time we were there was a bit rowdy. Burger is the reason for thee stars. Just a simple fried burger. Nothing special. I had a cheeseburger with fried onions. Family had burgers and fries and while the fries are hand cut and fresh, they were soggy and mushy. Like I said, open mind, and I'll be back. Price was good - $30 for four burgers and two beers. read more

On Wednesday nights they do cheap pitchers of beer. The burgers are great and they are the main reason I come back. It's a real dive bar so if you are afraid of a little grime don't come here. But if you are looking for a casual spot with some nautical charm, Anchor Bar is it. read more

Was a bit of a letdown after hearing such high praise about the place. I appreciate the cheap prices and the food was good for the price. However, myself and another party member asked for the addition of bacon on our burgers per suggestion of the waitress and neither burger came with bacon. The service was not the definition of friendly. I asked the waitress, an older woman, a question about one of the menu items and she solely stared at me without giving an answer. It made me uncomfortable. When we went to pay, the bartender did not acknowledge us for at least a minute until the aforementioned waitress asked her to help us. I asked the bartender not to charge me for the bacon I did not receive and she did not act apologetic about the error, although she did honor my request. I do not feel particularly invited to come back anytime soon. read more

There were fab reviews for the place and they had me at olive burger. Upon opening the door, this was the very definition of a hole-in-the-wall (and I loves me some holes-in-the-wall). The tables were all full, so I bellied up to the bar. From my vantage point I counted 20 burgers on the grill at one point. Was it a big night, or just the dinner rush? My burger arrived and I found a salt-less smash burger with a shmear of cream cheese on the bun which was sprinkled with cut green olives. While I did not expect a tapenade made from an exotic polysyllabic variety of olive...this was it? The slice of promised grilled pineapple never made it, either, but there was a heaping pile of limp and undercooked fries which I knew better than to finish. So the unicorn of a $6 amazing olive burger is still out there. Maybe this one tastes better at 2am after a few pitchers? But after remembering the fries, maybe not. read more

This place was recommended by our 19yr old son who was brought here by a friend! Since we were trying to hit the breweries between Duluth and Superior we figured why not have a bar burger! Boy did we hit the jackpot!! The wait wasn't bad since there were only 2 of us so we found the last spot in the corner, score!! It's exactly what we were looking for and then some. A good old bar burger, greasy in the best sense! The fries are homemade and fresh! The burgers (jalepeno & jalepeno cream chesse) were juicy, hot and amazing! The only negative is we didn't go here every day for the 3 days prior that we were in Duluth! Our waitress was amazing and attentive! If this place isn't for you you're a snob and shouldn't be taking up space by someone who would enjoy it! Can't wait to go back! P.S. The burger's are better then my picture taking skills! read more
