Quick info
About The Anvil
The Anvil is a family-run pub in Chesterfield, with quiz nights that give regulars and visiting groups an organised event to join. A pool table and a dart board offer games between rounds, and other varied entertainment rounds out the programme. At the bar, ale is served on pump for those who want a pint of cask beer. The pub is set up as a local, with games and events at the centre of the offer rather than a food menu. Groups are welcome, so a table of friends or a family party can settle in together.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the beer, describing a good pint and a great range of ale on pump, with one calling it the best beer around. Close behind is the friendly, family run feel, which several mention alongside a good welcome and excellent service. Entertainment fills out the picture: a pool table and dart board, a game of pool, and quiz nights, with one reviewer noting a quiz night was good and their team won. One reviewer mentions the toilets have been refitted and refurbished to a high standard, and the car park has been resurfaced during a refit. The one complaint is a single review of warm drinks, which gives no further detail. Most other reviews are positive, and the closing detail reviewers return to is that good pint, pulled in a friendly local pub.
