    TBH not really sure B trying to prep for a meeting re the A&H and I cant place it - probably due to liquid lunch. Really just trying to get some background.
  • You're going to have a meeting about the Anchor in charlton? Interesting . Hope you're not shutting it down. Only decent pub left in the area. Lovely pub.

    Run by a nice family. Its right on the river front - nothing around it so its set out on its own. but has a lovely feel.

    ill look up some pics
  • you wouldnt place it if you hadnt been down there before.
  • Thanks for that, as far as I know there's no danger of closure, quite the opposite in fact. Meeting tomorrow so confidentiality allowing I may have more to report. Whats the clientele like? Yourself excluded obviously - I know you're trouble! :)

    Clientele is mainly older. Sometimes can be very quiet in there and other days packed - depending on whats on.

    Its lovely pub - in the winter the older people get dressed up on a sunday afternoon in their sunday best to go down for drinks and free nibbles on the bar to listen to an entertainer crooning in the corner. Very south london. In the summer its more manic.

    It will be busy tonight as they have food specials on every wednesday night.
  • best pub in charlton by a country mile
  • if the Anchor was a film... i would say its a mix between the Long Good Friday and priscilla queen of the deserts.

    Yep, and some of them are quite well built, so be aware.
  • Its a wicked pub me and my family have been going down there for over 25 years, never had any trouble, lovely boozer for a weekend in the summer, took my 4 year old son down there to watch the redbull air race, they were fine with him coming in with me to get the drinks, made a fuss of him, all in all its a lovely boozer.
  • It's on a fantastically named road.

    Send them an email to put them straight. Seriously, they're pretty good with that sort of thing and will likely stick it on their list of pubs to revisit in the not too distant.

    Three pints out of five is probably about right though.
