About This Pub
Ah, Anchor & Hops – what a hidden gem in Stockton Heath! From what I've gathered from the buzz around it, this place is all about the craft beers and ales, with a lineup that's seriously impressive and always changing, so you're in for a treat every visit. The staff are absolute legends, chatting away and helping you pick the perfect pint, whether you're into a hazy IPA or something a bit more unusual. It's got that cosy, welcoming feel that makes you want to settle in for the evening, and they've got events going on that really bring the community together. On the flip side, though, their website doesn't give you much to go on, so you might end up winging it a bit when you're planning a trip. Plus, it's closed one day a week, and it doesn't seem to have much in the way of food options – more of a beer haven than a full-blown pub grub spot. All in all, if you're a beer enthusiast, it's well worth checking out for a relaxed pint or two, but do pop in when it's open and see for yourself!

Fantastic craft beer and ale shop with a huge selection of ales that you don't find in supermarkets, the man working there was very friendly and knowledgeable and new what I was talking about when asking for recommendations. Was my first visit and I'll definitely be using this shop when I want to treat myself to some different craft ales or stouts!
Easily the best craft beer spot in Warrington. The tap list is always rotating, so there’s something new to try every time you walk in, whether you’re after a hazy IPA, a crisp lager, or something a bit weird and wonderful. The fridge selection is next level too—properly cold-chained and packed with quality beers you won’t find in your average bar.
The atmosphere is spot on—laid-back, no nonsense, and all about the beer. The staff actually know what they’re talking about, and you can tell they care about what they’re serving. No pretentious beer snobbery, just good pints and good chat.
