The place has zero doors or windows but put in these bubbles for customers. I've never seen anything like it.

Just wanted a beer after a long day during the beginning of Covid Business was slow and they told me I had to order food also. They wanted $40 for a beer and a hotdog. Never went back.

Great atmosphere and amazing staff. From the servers to baristas to floaters! Manager goes around introducing themselves to customers and makes sure everyone is taken care of. Food is great and nice ambiance for, dates and catching up with friends.They do local events of varied cultures. My favorite one is Saborcito during the summer. Where you get to learn and dance to Salsa and Bachata. Thank you for the amazing experience!

Love this venue and all the dance events and other free events they host. What a valuable community center and perfect place to enjoy late summer/early fall evenings. I do wish they had more bar options and better food options especially for gluten allergy but still will always be back.

Open space to have drinks and snacks with a good view of Boston. The drink and food selection is limited. The service is slow, and the prices are high for the selection.

Love the new additions to the menu. The lobster roll and pulled pork sandwich were amazing! Wide variety of drinks to choose from as well. The outdoor setting is great for date night but is also family friendly. There are free events to attend which was a nice surprise. Staff were all very friendly and attentive. Will definitely be back.

I stopped by here for a drink while the family was doing some other stuff and I really enjoyed the setup here. Awesome looking old building that's been redone with outdoor seats and an area for bands to play.

This place was so cute and we had such a great experience. I came with a large party of ten and they accommodated us perfectly. The waterfront patio was so nice and overall we had a great experience.

Staff here were lovely and service was great - 5 stars to them. I found the food and beer to be quite expensive though. I think it was around 12 dollars for a can of beer.

The Anchor is a fantastic venue, located in the Charlestown Navy Shipyard. Friendly staff, live entertainment, and beautiful views of the Navy Yard make for a great place to hang out on a warm, summer, afternoon or evening.
