Services
In the ten years that Vernon Blackmore and our hard-working team have been at the Anchor, what we offer has developed into a very personal feel of what we feel a quayside pub should be. We want you to enjoy the history of The Anchor's interior so we have been very careful not to remove the pub's old charm and character.
The Anchor Group of pubs and restaurants is building an awesome reputation for great food and drink combined with excellent service. We are currently looking for great staff to join our teams at The Anchor, The Duck, The Table and the Easton White Horse for roles including front of house manager, waiting staff, kitchen staff, kitchen porters, chefs, cleaners, maintenance role and more.
For Vernon and our dedicated kitchen team, it's all about cooking exciting, tasty dishes from the best local, fresh, seasonal produce. Over the years we have forged great relationships with passionate local producers to be able to bring you prime Suffolk ingredients, be it fish landed at the quayside or plump berries harvested just up the road where we get first dibs!
Situated in the delightful Suffolk town of Woodbridge, our traditional quayside pub is a perfect stop while exploring the best of this wonderful area. Set in the countryside we are just a short drive from our nearby Suffolk Coast & Heaths Area of Outstanding natural Beauty and close to popular towns and villages, including Framlingham, Wickham Market and Aldeburgh.
You can just call in for a table, but if you would like to guarantee it please contact us to make a reservation. Created by Vernon Blackmore, The Anchor proprietor, and Jamie Symons, these pastes are all hand made and Great Taste Award Winners. We provide you with a easy way to make more interesting authentic, tasty curries in your own home.

My dinner partner and I were very pleasantly surprised to find this gem while staying over in Woodbridge for a night: it looked like just another corner pub, but the dinner plates were really excellent. On top of that, the service was courteous and the atmosphere pleasant. We look forward to going back when we're in town again!
