£20 The Anchor Inn


 Location 1-3 High Street, Cowes, Isle of Wight, PO31 7SA t: 0844 683 1954 w: www.theanchorcowes.co.uk e: manager@theanchorcowes.co.uk


The Anchor Inn is situated at the centre of the Cowes yachting scene. Set opposite the Cowes Yacht Haven and only a short walk from the Red Jet terminal, it is the ideal place to relax after a hard day on the waves, offering good food, fine ale and a warm welcome all year round. This old coaching inn has been at the heart of Cowes for generations. The land was originally leased in 1704 to a victualler named Ladowyke Brandenburg and it became known as The Anchor Inn over 100 years later. The inn is full of atmosphere to this day, and plays host to a vibrant music scene. Eat outside in the stable yard during summer, and in winter draw in by the blazing fire. Alternatively, make a weekend of it and stay in the comfortable, clean and affordable en-suite accommodation, which includes six twin rooms and a spacious family room.


Open: Mon-Thurs 11am-11pm; Fri & Sat 11am-12.30am; Sun noon-10.30pm Traditional WI

£10 The Waverley Inn


 Location 2 Clatterford Road, Carisbrooke, Nr. Newport, Isle of Wight, PO30 1PA t: 0844 683 1942 w: www.waverleyinn.co.uk e: steve@waverleyinn.co.uk


With an enviable view of ancient Carisbrooke Castle, where King Charles I was held prior to execution, The Waverley Inn is hard to miss and steeped in history. Named after the large paddle steamer that frequents these shores, The Waverley is a large Victorian public house with enough outdoor seating to create a vibrant atmosphere in the summer. On the wet and windy autumn day of my visit, I was greeted by a lovely roaring coal fire and warm hospitality from the staff behind the bar, above which sat a number of antiques all reminding me of a bygone era. A homemade steak and ale pie went down a treat with a pint of real ale – any thoughts of the rain outside were soon banished. You’ll find the traditional fare caters for all, with a superb range of menus and prices that will please anyone’s pocket. Don’t miss the astonishing £3.95 menu, which offers you the chance to eat like a king for the price of a coffee.
