Best Dog Friendly Restaurants in Wherstead

Exceptional, again!. This was our second year visiting the weekend before Christmas for an early afternoon dinner. Every part of the meal was perfect. The staff were friendly, courteous and attentive. The restaurant fell warm and welcoming and not over crowded but best of all, the food was incredible. Cannot rate The Anchor highly enough and you can be sure we will be returning next year.!!

Food was fantastic and it’s a lovely dining room. Service was polite but a bit sleepy.

Country pub atmosphere with fabulous food, worth a visit. Lucky to have this locally.

the afternoon again at the lodge was excellent and would highly recommend it also the food and staff are excellent and staff can't help you enough it's a really enjoyable place to eat and enjoy there was 8 people on our table and we all had starters mains and deserts and not one plate went back with any food left well done lodge team

Ourselves and two other couples get together once a month for a meal at different restaurants and pubs. We chose the Sword in Hand as it has a good reputation for food, and isn’t far from where we live. The meal was exquisite, 4 of us having the “Christmas pie” and thoroughly enjoyed it. The other 2 had chicken schnitzel, and fish and chips, who also had no complaints. The service was impeccable, giving extra commendation to the younger staff who were very attentive, ensuring we were happy with the meals and drinks. I would definitely recommend a visit.
