Blockhouse at The Sheet Anchor in Newcastle-under-Lyme

Great food, brilliant atmosphere and the staff were really helpful

Steph was very polite & efficient :) food was lovely, all the sauces were incredible!

Beautiful food and place ... the staff were great and friendly Definitely recommend the sharere meat sweats for a taste of everything. Looking forward to returning

Poppy’s service was friendly and attentive. Nothing was too much trouble.

An amazing place sat next to the fire to keep us warm. The food was amazing worth the money. Easy drive from stoke-on-trent. Staff were friendly and food came quickly. Honestly couldn't fault it

Poppy was an amazing host. Incredibly attentive, thoughtful and accommodating. This service was delivered to the guests around us, the same fantastic service was executed to all customers. An excellent representative of the establishment. Poppy was professional, efficient and incredibly polite. Such a wonderful experience and a memorable evening. Thank you Poppy for the service with a smile and bags of personality. The food was phenomenal, Onion rings and Cajun chicken gravy........ Bangin'

Brilliant food, lovely atmosphere! Came for my 18th birthday! They decorated the table, gave me a card and put sparklers in my cake! Would highly recommend this place. Also the popcorn halloumi was amazing

Lovely meal yet again at the Block House!!

Very Good Overall... Service was quite slow, but worth the wait 🙌

The food was outstanding and even though it was New Years Day it was very clean and service fantastic

Great food and perfect service from Lilly - good selection of food , efficient service , cosy atmosphere with wood fire in the middle of the restaurant . Would definetly recommend . Only let down could be the car park .

amy was an amazing server, very polite and constantly checked we were satisfied 💗

Very confusing menu! If you like good, wholesome food that’s simple yet flavourful then don’t book here. The Ceasar salad (which I chose as it was the simplest option) was about 10 lettuce leaves, half an egg and some tiny bits of anchovy for £11. They even add a service charge without asking. It’s lovely inside and the staff are very nice, but it’s very overpriced for what you get.

Excellent food great atmosphere would definitely go again. Staff were pleasant.Never seen so many people in one place for a good many years.

Staff were lovely, food was very poor value for money, left still hungry, also took ages to come

i loved the food, the atmosphere was friendly, and service was decently quick

Try the cheddar sausage. The best thing I ve eaten, since the day I was born.

Great food, lovely atmosphere , staff welcoming and friendly, thank you Steph

Lovely food, great service and atmosphere

The restaurant is extremely cozy, clean and a very pleasant atmosphere. We booked for 18:30 and were sat at time and promptly. Amy our server asked for our allergens and dietary requirements. Drinks and food service was quick and prompt. Excellent night out 10/10. Many thanks to Amy, she is a credit to the establishment.

Really good service from our waitress Amy, who made sure we were taken care of even when there was a wait on food. Drinks were nice however the food has been better in the past. Overall nice visit!

our server was amy she was very nice and welcoming

Over priced, add a service charge to boot

This place is flipping lovely, easy to find, decent parking. The decor is great and really adds to the vibe. Food is delicious, and there is a lot of it, reasonably priced and beer is excellent 👌

Amy our server was very polite and help full.

Amy was very friendly and helpful.

Great food and friendly service from Amy!

As always, fantastic food, service and atmosphere

Best burger I've ever had (the Once in a life burger) service really quick. Great central fire and a lovely classic wooden aesthetic

Lovely food, had the Once in a lifetime burger wow!

One of our favourite spots to visit! always love the food and atmosphere, has the meat sharer this time, and it did not disappoint, definitely one of our favourite meals here by far! Overall lovely place to eat and be with friends and family! Couldn’t recommend more!!!

Being from west wales and having spent the day at Alton towers i dropped in here with my nieces on our way home for dinner. We all enjoyed the food and it sealed our weekend away with good food before going home. Thanks

I recently visited Blockhouse at the Sheet Anchor, and unfortunately, it didn’t live up to expectations. The service was slow and inattentive, despite the restaurant not being overly busy. The food was overpriced for the quality, with portions that felt underwhelming for the price paid. The atmosphere was also lacking—what could have been a cozy, inviting space felt cold and unwelcoming. To top it off, it seemed that the staff weren’t particularly interested in addressing customer concerns, which left a poor impression. I was really hoping for a better experience, but sadly, I wouldn’t recommend it based on this visit.

was wonderful to eat dinner here great money for value.

Steph was fantastic, food was great. We’d definitely return ☺️

Steph Allen was amazing, great service and lovely person! Made our evening

5* Venue with food to match My personal recommendation is the block n blue dirty fries. WOW! Took a family of four, had more than enough food and puds, with drinks, and it was just under £90.

Lovely food, good atmosphere, great service
