We didn't go inside as our friend wanted the fresh air. We met on a hot July evening. There are a couple tables with umbrellas but with the sun setting on the horizon it was hard to get shade from them. This is of no fault of anyone on this beautiful summer afternoon. The waitress was on par. She had already brought out drinks for my friend and was right there when I sat down to get my drink order. When our friends arrived our waitress was right back out there to help us. She handled our drinks well and kept the water flowing on this hot day. I asked her what her favorite item was. She asked me a couple questions to help me aim for what I was craving and let me know that she loves their flatbread but told me about a chicken sandwich that she really likes. I told her it sounds a little heavy and she said she sometimes puts it on greens and its good. It told her that sounded perfect! It was perfect. The rest of the table ordered flatbread and an order of dolma savored every bite of my angry chicken. I wish I had taken a picture of the menu because my memory is not serving me the best remembering what exactly it was called, but so good. You can get your choice of drinks on tap or bottle, but the heat was having me enjoying the water tonight. I tried dolma, but it wasn't doing it for me and the flavor was in my chicken. My other friend had the chickpea side salad. Everyone was able to have something they wanted and our meatless eater also had lots of options. I suggested if you are a local you already know this place, but if you haven't, please do. Very tasty and worth the stop. I would go again.

What a find for a coffee lover!…read more I had a large iced oat milk latte (no flavoring) delivered over DoorDash. First, my husband placed the order for me, and I got a call right away from a friendly individual at Crimson Anchor to confirm my order would be made with oat milk. (My husband put it in the order as a question and the caller wanted to confirm it for us. SO nice!) This latte is smooth, i can actually taste the coffee and it's delicious, it's PERFECT. But this one is special for 2 reasons... 1) milk substitutes (like my oat milk), flavorings, and even whipped topping are included in the cost. SCORE! 2) This iced beauty came with two large square ice cubes made out of COFFEE . As a person who always orders oat milk, and always removes the ice to keep my beloved latte from watering down, this is a delight to me! I can't wait to stop in and check out the vibe.
