The Anchor at Walberswick

The Anchor at Walberswick Gastro pub with 10 cosy bedrooms, just a stone's throw from the beach in the charming village of Walberswick on the Suffolk Coast.

A cosy pub with 10 rooms, 4 of which are in the main Arts & Crafts building and 6 are garden chalets eco clad in cedar wood. We have 3 dog friendly chalet rooms overlooking the back garden and you can hear the sea from your terrace. A short walk from the pub takes you directly over the sand dunes and onto the Walberswick beach. From here you can walk to Dunwich, Southwold or across the reed-beds and to the woods. Relax by the crackling log fire on your return in the bar or the family room. We are open for breakfast to non-residents, morning coffee, lunch, afternoon snacks, and dinner until 9pm. Sophie, the owner, bakes her own bread daily which you can buy at the bar to take away. Monthly curry club and a real ale & oyster festival in August.

And just like that… another summer at The Anchor is nearly over. ❤️After months of sunshine, busy terraces, long lunches...

And just like that… another summer at The Anchor is nearly over. ❤️

After months of sunshine, busy terraces, long lunches, Friday evenings, wine tastings, our beer and oyster festival weekend, it makes you realise how lucky we are!

Before we say goodbye to the summer, we’d just like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who made it such a success and who have been a big part of it!

To our wonderful locals, dear friends (near and far), supporters… it’s been a summer full of good food, beer, wine and laughter!

And then there’s our team… who we really couldn’t do it without. What a bunch. Huge days, late nights, so many people, full terraces. Many, many pints, lots of wine served. It really has been a busy one, but every single one has made it the best summer ever.

We couldn’t thank you all enough. What a summer🍸🍺☀️❤️🤗💕

Hello everyone. I’ve had a wonderful morning with Emily and Connor from the East Anglian Air Ambulance, who have kindly provided us with a Tap & Go donation system and shared more about the incredible, life-saving work they deliver across our region.

As EAAA receives no government or NHS funding, every mission relies on the generosity of the community. So many of you already do incredible work fundraising each year, and we simply want to support and build on the amazing efforts of this community.

The Tap & Go machine will be in the marquee during our Anchor events and on the front bar throughout the festive season, and we’ve also added an online fundraising link in our bio.

Any support would mean so much. 💙
