About the Hope and Anchor English Pub

When owner Ian Robbins walked into the old Mayflower Building, his first response was “This is an English pub!” Since growing up in Ross-on-Wye, England, and being a very experienced pub connoisseur,  Ian immediately decided to transform the lovely, historic structure into a cozy feeling English Pub. During Ian’s youth in England, the gathering point was the Hope and Anchor Pub located on the River Wye in Herefordshire County. Because the design of the old Mayflower was so conduit with the style of the Hope and Anchor Pub, It made Ian feel right at home. Ian wanted to bring that atmosphere to the people of the Stateline area. 

“No man is a stranger here.  Duck in to warm by the fire and the barman will know your story in the time that it takes to pour a perfect pint.   Soon enough, everyone else at the counter will know it too, and you will be in the circle of conversation.  The band plays.  Time becomes meaningless. You’ll stay until the music and stories end. Then you’ll come back tomorrow and ever after, because this is your place now.  Quote from George Killian
