This pub only sells courage best if and when they feel like it. Often very quite

If you want a pint of vinger this is a place to go!

Second visit to this place and second on the pub crawl. Looks as though it's just been painted outside in a mustard colour but the interior looks dated and tatty. Not exactly welcoming (customers more than staff) but a very cheap pint!

This pub is poor, the beer taste like vinegar and the pub is run down, so u won't go back as a result!

An enjoyable pub to visit and it does still sell Fullers beers. Keen on Sport here, especially Cricket, Rugby Pool and Darts. Certainly worth a visit if in the area.

Have Fullers sold this pub? I drove past the other day and all the Fullers branding seems to have disappeared.

As recently reported in the Knaphillian, "Due to a lack of foresight by The Anchor's new owners, the pub has recently instructed it's management team to pull the plug on their Saturday night slot for live music. This is a major blow for the village that has come at a time when they could have benefited greatly from being one of Knaphill's best venues for such entertainment." A great shame, another live music venue lost.

Visted the pub on Monday, not been in for some while.
Found the pub had a new management team and was a much friendlier atmosphere than my last visit.
To a very welcome surprise the specials did not include paninis!! Had Home made burger and Amercian style pancakes for desert. Good looking new menu people I was with als impressed.
Would reccomend this pub to anyone, definatly moving in the right direction.. Live music tonight so heading there to check it out.

I popped into The Anchor last Friday because it had live music and was very pleasantly surprised - many music pubs are not so welcoming. Had a great pint of Fullers' London Pride and saw an excellent local band, Six Miles Away - not too loud either. Wide range of ages too so I didn't feel out of place either.

I first dropped in for a pint about 3 years ago when visiting family in the are, the beer was excellent.
I went in again on 15th April 2007 and what a change.
I asked for a pint of the best beer in the house, there were 3 draught beers. I was presented with a pint with a very loose head, as I got it towards my mouth the smell was enough to put me off. It would have ruined my stomach for several days had I drank it. It was also warm so none had been served for some time. I looked at the guy behind the bar and without me saying anything he said I'll change it! Maybe my expression was enough! The replacement was just a little better, cooler, clear, lacking in condition and no way would you buy another one - or ever go back into the pub. You could not hear yourself speak as the music was so load, no wonder there were just a few youngsters there, trade looked very bad.

This used to be a GREAT pub now it's just plain awful. The new brewery have totally ruined it by taking out the pool table, dart board and jukebox. There is no life and no atmosphere in this pub anymore, such a shame!

It�s rare to find a place where the elders appear to have more energy that the young people in their early �20s. The youngsters here are totally soulless and appear to have no energy. They score very high in the chavometer though! The guys working behind the bar are cool though.

A dive, always has been, always will be, like all the other pubs in Knaphill

Pub has now been bought out by Fullers and slowing being merged into looking like another Fullers pub. Staff very pleasant, although now going through "another" change of management. New menu, yet to try but looks inviting.

Not the nicest of pubs, weird placing of tables etc, avoid on Friday night.
