LOCAL GEM
THE BLUE ANCHOR
Hammersmith
Located on the banks of the Thames, The Blue Anchor, a 300-year-old pub, is a great spot to spend a sunny summer afternoon. There’s a traditional 17th century pub-style ground floor bar and restaurant and a River Room upstairs with great views, but we think the picnic tables outside at the front, directly in front of the river, are the best seats. They do Sunday roasts and offer house cocktails alongside the usual pub drinks lists, as well as magnums, should you be with a group.
