Anglesey Arms

Came for the Sunday roast which was great and probably the best I’ve ever had outside of my mum’s house. I couldn’t fault the cooking of it, great value for money and portions if anything too generous, although it didn’t stop me from finishing it. Classic British pub inside, friendly staff and a nice looking terrace at the back as well. Would visit again.

The Anglesey Arms is a very, very nice pub indeed. In fact, I’m not sure it’s a pub. I think it might be one of those ‘gastro pubs’ I’ve read about. That’s because, away from the very pleasing Otter Ale, they serve some pretty great looking food.
On the boards, I saw pig’s head, which according to my chum who had just eaten it, was amazing. Alas, I can’t personally vouch for it as I was only drinking and staring at the various mounted animal heads on the wall (great boar’s head folks).
The vibe inside is all wooden and dimly lit, which personally, I think makes for a perfect drinking den.
If you’re a stalker of some kind, it might be worth putting this place on your stalker map (stalkers, I assume, have special maps with pins in and the like). Known drinkers here include the not-​so-​impressive Adrian Chiles and the properly famous Hugh Grant, who I’m told is a fan of Twiglets.
There’s a small smoking section with seat which is pretty cool and an especially rude cat called Lily who I found rather endearing in its aloofness.
Basically, this is a bit of jewel of a pub, although, some of the prices for beer can be a little off-​putting.
Definitely worth a trip though.

The Anglesey… one of the sweetest sweetest places to consume any sort of beverage…
.The mulled wine at xmas is particularly good.
Also.bar snacks — the anglesey has taken lead and provided the standard pub classic like ‘a pint of prawns’ — the good old sausage roll and a list of other variables…
The outside area is always mobbed in the summer and is complimented by heaters for the days that are slightly chilly.
It’s an excellent spot for afternoon /​early evening drinking — and is particularly busy with lots of young locals on a sunday evening!
