We have been coming here for around 10 years. We went to order and as I was not very hungry I ordered a starter ( £7.00) a side dish ( 4.50 ) and then asked for a child's spaghetti Bolognase. The waiter said I can't order a kids meal. I explained I wasn't hungry enough for a main and that I was also ordering a latte ( 00) and a cocktail ( 7.50 ). He said the kids meals are only for kids otherwise every one who came in would order a kids meal. ( i seriously don't think people going to the crab and anchor are looking for chicken nuggets, fish fingers, hamburger, with chips and peas or beans ). Should add my partner was ordering a soft drink and burger from the main menu. After an uncomfortable few minutes the waiter said on this occasion he would let me order it. I didn't get offered any beans or peas, total bill came to 48. It left an unsavoury feeling, and I won't be returning for a long time.

Had a lovely meal there this evening. Food came quickly and large portions. The French onion soup and fish pie were so good.

We booked to have lunch the night before. The Crab and Anchor had been highly recommended by friends. Our daughter is coeliac, therefore it was vital for her to have a safe meal. She had a children's roast chicken and loved it. She also had an Eton mess for dessert. Absolutely brilliant. There were 8 of us in our party and we all had an amazing lunch and dessert. A definite for yummy food and lovely staff.
