This younger sibling of Waterloo’s Anchor & Hope is a buzzy spot for sociable lunches & quick suppers (table turning is de rigueur). The back-to-basics style – mismatched wooden furniture, wine in tumblers & chalked-up specials – suits a twice-daily menu featuring carefully sourced seasonal ingredients & ‘memorably distinct flavours’. To start, a plate of gutsy pork & rabbit rillettes contrasts with a low-key combo of radishes, pheasant egg & gentleman’s relish, while mains might yield perfectly timed whole plaice with leeks & an intense crab bisque or melt-in-the-mouth, richly spiced goulash with potato dumplings. Drinks include a welcome choice of seasonal cordials & cocktails, craft beers & reasonably priced European wines. Service has perked up noticeably of late, with glowing praise for the ‘incredibly knowledgeable’, helpful & friendly staff.
