Everybody in Portstewart knows the Anchor Bar. It’s been part of the town’s furniture since 1898. That makes it the oldest traditional bar in the area and that experience shows in the wonderful food and excellent service. The location is hard to beat, too- smack bang on the Promenade.

They’re so child-friendly they give out colouring books to amuse the little ones while the food arrives, and the food here is very, very good.

Land and sea are both well represented in the main bar and in Skippers Restaurant. Expect mains like Bushmills whiskey sausages and mash and beer battered catch of the day. Prices are typically four pounds for a starter and nine pounds for mains in the bar.

It’s a great live entertainment venue too, and is often put on for free so you can dance off those calories!
