We've been coming to the marina for 4 decades, this is the first time we discovered this bar. Actually, we were searching for a new restaurant to have for lunch, that we've not visited so I can do a review, and this was it! After we ordered, we checked what YELP customers rated this bar, and I was surprised the high ratings. The food was excellent! I didn't know they made homemade fries, hubby ordered the Reuben Sandwich, and a bowl of clam chowder. I just wanted the Spinach & Artichoke Dip with Chips. We shared everything, and there's still some leftover for another lunch or snack another day. Only negative: The restroom is old & dirty! There's an extra latch for the stalls. The servers were friendly, and accommodating. For a week day lunch, it's a bit loud, since all the TV are on and the slot machines I noticed, but I wasn't sure if they were on or not. It's crowded!

This dive bar has a great, lively atmosphere, especially when it's busy. We stopped in on game day, and even with the large crowds, the staff stayed friendly and attentive, regularly checking in on us throughout our visit, which really stood out. The drinks were tasty and well-made, and the food was better than expected for a dive bar. The bar also offers video poker, but they were all occupied the whole entire time we were there. I also saw that Anchor Bar offers drink and food specials during the week, plus a daily happy hour, making it a solid spot if you're looking for good value. The only downside is the small parking area, which can be tricky when it's packed. Overall, a great neighborhood dive bar with good drinks, good food, and friendly service. Definitely worth stopping by.

I did not take pictures, I have been to this place multiple times, from lunch to late night drinks and I always have a great experience. Good, nice service, lottery is always a win, strong drinks, decent food, just a good vibe. I'll continue to come here and bring friends!

I like coming to this bar, the drinks and food are affordable and good! The staff is friendly and checks up often if you need another drink. There are video poker machines, and multiple tvs playing sports. I'll be back soon for the Tuesday taco night!

Bloody Mary

Stopped in with some friends for bloody Mary's and breakfast. The Mary's were pretty darn good let me tell you, not sure what mix they use but I would definitely have another. The food was good lots of it. The bartenders were nice and quick. This is a neighborhood bar stranded in a strange place.

Anchor Breakfast

Anchor breakfast. Yummy food. Lots of sports on at all times. A little loud on the weekends but fun place.

Stopped by on Valentine's Day. When we arrived, it wasn't busy (thank goodness) but as we sat down…read morewaiting for the food, more and more people started to show up. The person at the bar was awesome! All the staff were friendly! Plenty of seating available and multiple TVs to watch. Even saw some kid toys in a corner for the littles. Now to the food... the burgers were delicious! All of it. The bun was toasted perfectly. Meat was tasty. Loved the toppings... We also tried the jalapeño poppers and fried pickles. Mmmm! We will be back next time we are in the area!

It was a pretty low-key Sunday afternoon and we were getting hungry when I remembered Kenton…read moreStation from a bar crawl I did about a decade ago. I was happy to see it was still there. We were in the mood for sandwiches, took a quick look at the menu, and decided to go with the Reuben -- great choice. They have a solid tap list with a nice variety, including at least one NA beer and a cider option, which I appreciated. The place definitely has the feel of a classic neighborhood sports bar with several TVs, and they were even advertising a Super Bowl chili cook-off you can enter, which sounded fun. The staff was very attentive and friendly throughout our visit. Our Reuben came out split for us without any issue, stacked high with meat, and came with a mountain of fries. It was easily one of the better Reubens I've had around town -- very flavorful and satisfying. The bar itself is spacious with plenty of tables, making it good for both larger groups and small gatherings. Parking is street parking only, which can be a bit limited depending on the time of day, but manageable. Overall, a great neighborhood bar with solid food and a welcoming vibe. If you are into it, they even have a free tour of their haunted underground basement every third Thursday at 7:30 pm.

Been here a couple times now. Always full and busy of course due to location. But the food is…read moregreat and menus are expansive. Tuesday for us today at 6 and had reservations. Still packed. Nothing happens fast there but the servers are doing the best they can to keep up. If you go in knowing this- you'll be ok. If not - you're likely going to be frustrated. We feel like they train their employees very seriously and they reflect it in their assertiveness, demeanor and appearance. We arrived at 6. Got drinks at 630. Appetizers at 645 and food shortly afterwards- maybe 7. Overall very reasonable considering how packed it was. I can't even imagine what the kitchen looks like with all this going on. The only complaint I have (tho it was free!!! So I should not complain) They gave my wife this big banana split for her birthday- but it was after we had all eaten our dessert and were miserably full. So.. I guess I spent an extra $24 dollars on hers and my desserts that we'd been able to split the split had they timed it. Anyway they gave us a nice personal card for her. Pricing and the timing the only reason for less than 5 stars. But likely next visit will be 5. Over all loved it and will be back.

The brussell sprouts are amazing, as are the wagyu sliders, and fish tacos. All fresh, excellent…read moreflavors & textures, and well presented. Happy hour here is a win for us & we will be back! Service was prompt, helpful, & friendly. Decor and atmosphere is excellent, although right around 5 the music was turned up to a bit too loud in the bar area. There is probably a reason for that I am sure. My husband & I are fans of this new spot!
