The Anchor - Cambridge

Superior pub close to several colleges in Cambridge that doesn 't demonstrably advertise its identity as a Greene King establishment. The outside seating area is very picturesque, directly by the river and Cambridge Chauffeur Punts . Very nice seating there unless the sun is burning down (No umbrellas). Cask selection is limited (5 taps, incl. the perennial GK IPA and Abbott Ale), but I found a nice guest APA. Plenty busy all day during the summer. Friendly service and adequate seating inside, too. Moderate prices for Cambridge. Good option for both tourists and students.

We had a lovely experience for lunch at The Anchor. Ideally located on the River with lovely views and access points. Staff were super friendly and attentive from start to finish. We all had Sunday roast, I opted for the Vegan Wellington which did not disappoint. It was delicious and filling, the only thing i would have liked was a little more of the vegetables for the pricepoint to accompany. Gravy was superb and everything cooked to perfection. Finished off with a sticky toffee pudding for dessert which was also quite good.

Extremely friendly staff! Very fast service (despite it being busy) and great view of the river! Highly recommend this place. And if you're a rock-fan then I highly recommend you to have a look at the Pink Floyd Legacy and pictures all around the building!

Visited this place as I knew well of the Pink Floyd legacy. Most certainly not disappointed. I was greeted from the staff working there with a big smile! They were really attentive, came to us and recommended us a lovely local ale that tasted amazing! Good combination with a lovely home-made chicken pie! Highly recommend this place, most certainly I will be back to visit this amazing and beautiful place!

I read about Syd Barret visiting this pub as a school kid and how it has a legacy. I don't think a lot of people know about this. You can find Syd's portraits also a few of the band members- Gilmour and Waters , as they are from Cambridge) on the wall. The food was good, good selection of beers on tap. It's right next to a punting hire place. The outdoor balcony has a great view sometimes chaotic) of people punting. Went purely cos of the Floyd legacy.
