🌱 New Summer Menu Coming Soon at The Anchorage in Dunure! 🌊

We’re thrilled to announce our brand new Summer Menu, launching in just 2 weeks and running right through to the end of September!

Our amazing chef team has been working hard to seriously up our game on vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options.

We’ve added new dedicated vegan and gluten-free equipment in the kitchen, and we’re currently testing a whole range of exciting new dishes.

We’d love your feedback while we perfect everything!

This week’s specials board has already reached 845% more people than average on Facebook — clearly you’re as excited as we are!

What makes it all so special? Our incredible team.

Work doesn’t feel like work here — it feels like family. From our head chef right through to front of house and our own manager / professional mushroom and wild food forager (who forages the very best local ingredients for your plate) / open mic host & 3rd chef!

Everyone brings something unique to the table.

We can’t wait to welcome you in to try the new dishes. Whether you’re after fresh seafood, beautiful plant-based creations, or something gluten-free, there’ll be plenty to love this summer.

Drop in, say hello, and let us know what you think!

Weekend Specials at The Anchorage ✨

This weekend’s feature is already turning heads…

Slow-braised lamb shoulder, cooked low and slow until beautifully tender, served with rich creamed potatoes, buttered sweetheart cabbage, silky turnip purée, baby carrots and finished with a real lamb jus.

Comforting, refined and full of flavour — the kind of dish our kitchen team loves to create and our guests remember long after the last bite.

At The Anchorage, every plate leaving the kitchen reflects the care, consistency and quality our chefs bring to service every day. Fresh ingredients, proper cooking and attention to detail are at the heart of everything we do.

If you’re joining us in Dunure this weekend, this one deserves a place on your table. 🍷
