Three old friends were visiting Cambridge and it was up to me to find somewhere good to eat. My choice of the Anchor proved universally popular and I would not hesitate to recommend it to all and sundry. Great food and atmosphere and reasonable prices. Top marks.

The quality of the food was good though it did take a while from ordering. But we were a group of 9 and as we were having a bit of a reunion with people we had not seen for many years it didn't matter. There was another large group in at the same time.
