I’ve been coming to this bar for YEARS! Always a good time….always amazing service! Emily is the best! Jeff is an amazing owner. The negative reviews you see from some individuals (Hana) is because they got too drunk and got cut off…..regardless….the best dive bar in town!

I visited Anchor Inn after working an all-nighter and walking around to decompress. I ordered a martini, some wings, and then asked for a beer. Despite being calm, quiet, and clearly not slurring my words, the bartender cut me off—while patrons next to me were actively pounding shots and beers.
I understand that after 24 hours awake, I may have looked fatigued, but I wasn’t intoxicated. I even recorded myself afterward to verify I wasn’t slurring. What disappointed me most wasn’t being cut off—it was the lack of concern or basic human decency. No offer of water. No, “Hey man, you doing alright?”
Instead, the interaction felt like a public power move. If you’re from out of town and not fully adjusted to the time zone, think twice. And if you’re an attractive woman? I saw a visibly drunk regular grab a woman by the hips—no one said a word.
Maybe this place works for some locals, but between the selective enforcement and lack of care, I won’t be back.

We wanted to play pool and decided to grab a bite to eat. From the start, the service was terrible! And there was only one other person in the place. The bartender barely acknowledged us. We ordered the fish & chips. They were under-cooked (Unsafe by food handling requirements) and greasy. We couldn’t eat them. The general indoor air was smoke filled from the fryer in the kitchen.
We stayed long enough to play 3 games of pool. We had to approach the bartender for drink refills each time. We even had to come to the bar to get our credit card slip. We only received merchant copy and no customer copy or itemized bill). She did however come over right as we were completing tip and signing credit card slip. Which we left on table with our empties. As we were walking out she asked where credit card slip was like we were running out wthout paying. Yes we made her go to the table and get the signed credit card slip.
Emily is callous, rude and I have to say, lazy. We won’t be back. Terrible experience.

Dive bar. 100%. Loved it! Must go if you love people. Loved the out of towners that we’re a bit freaked out by decor (including me). Amazing beer selection for such an odd little pub. Bartender was amazing. Has stories, worked in other Anacortes locations and loves his little bar. If you’re into meeting people and love a good read…see photo….stop by.

Love it! Great small town vibe. The bartenders are fantastic, Emily is a rock star and the owner is the best in town. And for bar food, you can’t get much better. My favorite thing is the shrimp and fries mmmm. I have heard they have the best wings, but I still have not tried them, one day soon

Okay I really like this bar…one thing that needs to change is variety music for the jukebox, I wish it was set up so we could just log in with our phones and pick our own music.
The jukebox has a very very limited selection of music which sucks at times, bring your ear buds I guess and it’s all good.
Okay besides that…two pool tables and a shuffleboard. Nice outside smoking area and okay parking.
The bartenders always seem friendly and they and know how to pour serve a drink.
The food is bar food – fish and chips are good.
Parking both in front of the bar and back of the bar.
The people who hang out here seem like real cool folks, I enjoy coming here, I feel this is going to be my new hangout.
I am learning to play pool so that’s why this place caught my interest.
I also noticed they have sign ups for a pool league.

It’s a great little hole in the wall bar on main Street and Anacortes. The waitress was very hospitable and cooked my food to order and it turned out amazing. Later I found out the waitress was actually the owner. She took money out of her own pocket and ask our table to go up and play what kind of music we like which in my opinion these days is very unheard of. She sat with us a bit and had great conversation. She has an amazing smile and blonde hair you can’t miss her. I will definitely go back to this place for another bite to eat in great conversation.
