What User doesn't like about Mug & Anchor Pub:
There for dinner from Bayport and they were closed!! Website said they were open. When they close, they should have the general sense of putting it on their website!! 50 km round trip!!! View all feedback. What User likes about Mug & Anchor Pub:
I was looking for comfort food after so much traveling and I found several choices here. Lively atmosphere which is what we needed on such a rainy day. Tables were sticky; was glad for the paper placemat. quick service and good beer choice. View all feedback.
