Expect generous portions, light batter, and house-made baklava to finish.

  • Licensed Sit-Down Dining: Dine-in seating, table service, espresso coffee, and Peroni beer upgrade the traditional fish and chip experience.
  • Greek-Inspired Grill & Sides: Friday gyros, mixed grills, fresh salads, and homemade baklava accompany classic battered flake and chips.
  • Generous Packs for Two: Generous seafood packs with crispy calamari, prawns, and house tartare sauce packaged smoothly for dinner on the go.

  • Effortless Seafood Packs for Two

    The popular Pack for Two provides generous portions of fresh, golden seafood with effortless parking out front for a seamless dinner pickup.

    We wanted a place to stop for dinner on the way home with parking out the front. So we tried Anchor. We got the pack for two.
