Anchor Inn, Epneyback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Luckily found this pub just off the M5. Good food and real ales in an unpretentious pub with Severn-side views. We couldn't have had a friendlier welcome. Well worth taking a break in this seemingly isolated pub just a mile or so from the motorway.

Lovely country pub, and a haven for real ale fans. Has a good menu of unpretentious food - my faggots were superb for �5.95 !!!
Has a small, friendly bar used by the locals, or a spacious lounge overlooking the garden and River Severn.
Sufficiently hard to find to discourage noisy young townies or hordes of young families, so an ideal country pub to visit for a chat with friends, maybe a meal, or just a quiet couple of excellent beers.

I would agree with the last review, and the pub also has a great (totally uncommercialised) garden - right on the banks of the river, with no children's play area, just picnic tables. Therefore it doesn't get overrun with hordes of kids charging around & yelling their lungs out. A great place to sit & watch the river, and enjoy the peace & quiet - too few of them around nowadays!

i would like to say that the comment left in september is complete rubbish. You get very good pub food good size portions and all freshly cooked, if you choose to sit and eat in the bar it is a small room and can get a bit smokey but the lounge looking out over the river is a big room that is great and non smoking. It is a freindly country pub that i would recommend to my friends.

Good beers on draught, nice location, pity about the food. Unless you like to eat very small portions of overpriced food with lashings of second hand smoke in an uncomfortably small room, give the menu a miss. Big pity that the prices are "Cordon Bleu" but the food is "Lay-bye Cafe". A good argument for non -smoking policies, especially in small pubs.

Been in the same hands for many years - good ones ! Wonderful location on the banks of the Severn only a few miles from the Wild Fowl trust at Slimbridge, and 10 minutes from the M5, but it could be another country.good range of food, and one of the best pints of Adnams Bitter in the county,
