The Anchor Inn Canalside, Dog-Friendly Country Pub serving great food, quality cask ale and even better memories.
(1670)

Nestled in the heart of the countryside and close to the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal, The Anchor Inn is a historic country pub that exudes charm and character. Dating back to the late 1700s, the first known landlord was John Durham recorded as such in 1834, and the current building is believed to have been built during the early 1960's after the original was destroyed by fire. This charming establishment offers a warm and inviting atmosphere, making it the perfect destination for a relaxing evening or a special occasion. With a menu filled with hearty favourites and country pub classics, guests can indulge in delicious seasonal dishes that are sure to satisfy any palate. The well-stocked bar boasts a wide selection of cask ales, fine wines and British gin, ensuring there is something for everyone to enjoy. Whether you choose to soak in the picturesque views of the countryside and the canal or unwind in the tranquil gardens, The Anchor Inn promises a delightful experience that will leave you wanting more. Come and discover the charm of this historic pub and create lasting memories with friends and loved ones.

Well for a first go at it, we reckon that was a success!

We've had a FANTASTIC afternoon with the animal man (woman). The turnout was beyond our wildest expectations and it was brilliant to see everyone enjoying themselves!
.. the team even managed to get chance to meet the creatures!

The animal man will certainly return in the future, so keep an eye out next school holiday for your chance to join in the fun!
