Hey all!! I always search for reasonably priced pubs with at least 4 stars on Yelp, and the Star…read more& Anchor was the only one near Heathrow. The food was great! I had a brisket pie that was essentially upscale Shepherds Pie, which is my favorite thing. The brisket was House-smoked and really great, and they used turnips along with potatoes for the mash. The veggies were clearly farm local and fresh...not a canned veggie in sight!! I was a little disappointed in the tap list. They took up several handles with marginal beers from outside the U.K., and I had hoped for more local flair. That said, they did have TWO locals on draft, and both were excellent...I just wish there had been more. All in all, I'll certainly be back the next time in near Heathrow and want upscale pub food.

As we walked in, we really enjoyed seeing the different seating areas and admired the cool decor - from the funny big pom poms to the nice candles on the tables to the hanging dried chillies. I liked the menu and was deciding between the burger, the ribs and the lime crusted salmon. My cousin is wheat- and dairy-free so was left with only the steak option, and then they informed her that they were out of rump steak. Her rib eye was fantastic, as were her sweet potato fries, but at a price. Her husband had the burger which he said was good. I enjoyed the salmon but was surprised that the noodles were served cold. I also had the house Bill's Beer brewed especially for Bills restaurants, but it had a bit of an interesting finish and didn't go great with the salmon although I had asked about it ahead of time. I really liked the ambiance and decorations, but the service and options were a bit limiting. The beers were served slowly but the food luckily came quickly. The burger's pot of chips were knocked over by the server when putting them down. The service was ok but not great, the prices were a bit high for the portion sizes, and generally the place was good but didn't blow us away.

On my first visit, after being greeted, I waited nearly an hour just to receive water and a menu. During that time, other patrons who arrived after me were quickly attended to and served food and drinks, despite the restaurant not being busy. This delay was unusual and immediately gave me a sense that I was being treated differently. I decided to give the place another chance the next day because I enjoyed the ambiance and fireplace. However, the same troubling pattern repeated itself. I sat for almost an hour without being offered water or a menu. It took so long I opened a book. When I finally asked for water, assuming the menu would come. The manager told me I would need to leave if I wasn't ordering anything, even though I had not been given a menu or had the chance to order yet. As I waited with people passing me by for a second day with no menu or water offered until an hour and then be prompted to leave. The service I received was not only slow but felt discriminatory and exclusionary. The fact that other guests were attended to promptly while I was ignored made me feel singled out and unwelcome. While the atmosphere and fireplace are nice, the way I was treated made it impossible for me to enjoy the experience. Based on my experience, I would not recommend eating here if you are a person of color, as the treatment I received was unacceptable and gave me serious concerns about the establishment's approach to hospitality and inclusivity. I would not recommend eating here overall if you want good customer service. It missed the mark and the worst restaurant I have been to thus far in town. 0/10.

We were arriving on a Saturday and we're only going to be around for one Sunday during our trip, to…read morebe able to try a Sunday roast. This Sunday happened to be New Year's Eve. Knowing that going to central London would be crazy, people and transportation wise, we knew we had to stick to a place near where we were staying. Thankfully, this pub was opened and had some nice reviews for their roast. I made reservations months before our trip to make sure we secured a spot. I made reservations for 1pm, but didn't show up until 3pm (military time confused me). That was totally my fault, but the hosts were so nice and accommodating and were able to find us a table. We knew we wanted the Sunday roast so we ordered one for our table, and decided to try other dishes: beer battered haddock, farm beef burger, and fried chicken nuggets. The fish was beautifully presented over a bed of chips, and also served with some peas. The peas were decadent: the mint gave it a nice touch. Son loved and secured his burger. The chicken nuggets were also tasty and crunchy. The Sunday roast exceeded our expectations. Plenty hoe gravy and fresh horseradish served on the side. The carrots and another white vegetable I'm not familiar with, we're nicely cooked. The roast was so tasty, tender, and juicy. It made me sad that we could only have this meal once during our trip. We enjoyed our meal with a nice IPA (neck oil) and cider (Cornish orchards) . The mixture of carbs and alcohol gave me enough relaxation to make it home and take the nicest siesta I've had in a while. Anyway, I'm happy I was able to be able to finally try Sunday roast, even though I was two hours late (don't do that), and I highly do recommend trying it here. You won't be disappointed! A cozy pub with great food and beer selection, is there anything else you can ask for?

I like the laid-back cool of the place. There's lots of well-worn wood on floors and walls, and disparate types of rustic, comfy furniture. There's a number of beers on tap, and often some interesting imports (they carried Sleeman's, a Canadian beer, for a while, and always have some Belgian fruit beers). Their wine list is extensive. They also have some decent wines on tap if you're not too snooty. The food here is really good, and I've had everything from bar snacks to brunch to full meals. Quite a few vegetarian options. I'll admit that I did have one bad dining experience here where my burger took forever and had to be sent back once it came, but the rest of the time it's been good. There are three rooms, all similar in vibe and furnishings. They've got a covered outdoor area in the alley beside the pub. There's no greenery, just picnic benches, but they run a barbeque out there in the summer. I've come to this pub on my own a couple of times when I'm been free during weekdays: it's a good place to have a drink and read a book, do a bit of work, or people-watch passers-by on the Broadway during the day. On weekend evenings a DJ spins up in the front room, and the place can get very busy at those times. One criticism is that they sometimes don't seem to have enough bar staff on to handle the impressive crowds they draw, and getting served can take a while. I think it's a 21-and-over pub.
