About The Hope & Anchor

On Maryland St in Liverpool, The Hope & Anchor is a pub built around a beer range, a burger menu, and a pool table alongside TV sports. Sundays bring a bottomless brunch with cocktails such as espresso martinis, pina coladas, and woo woo. Beyond burgers, the kitchen runs to Caesar chicken and pizza, with vegan options on the menu. Table service takes drink orders throughout the meal, and staff will move tables on request. Screens around the room show sport, including F1 and Derby day fixtures. It opens daily and takes walk-ins rather than reservations.

Customer Review Summary

Bottomless brunch draws most of the praise, with reviewers repeatedly citing quick service even for large groups, tasty food like Caesar chicken, and cocktails such as pina colada and espresso martinis. Several call out individual servers by name for keeping drinks flowing and accommodating group changes, and diners note vegan options were well handled. Close behind, the pub quiz and general atmosphere get singled out as a draw beyond the brunch itself. One reviewer's experience stood apart sharply: after ordering pizza, they waited over 30 minutes, were met with rude and dismissive staff when asking about the delay, and received the pizza cold, grainy, and burnt on top while wet underneath, with no resolution offered. Otherwise, the recurring picture is fast-flowing drinks, generous rounds averaging several each, and hosts who checked in throughout the visit, with multiple diners saying they would return.

    “This is my first time writing a review but the service given today by Joe and Nicole was exceptional. From the moment we arrived nothing was too much trouble. From friendly service to making sure we was ok. We asked to move table and was accommodated without any hesitation or trouble. Would recommend this venue to anyone. What a place to enjoy and watch the British F1. Thank you”
