Ancora, Hadleigh

Been going here for years, but after last visit neither myself or any of my family will ever visit again. No atmosphere anymore and food quality is terrible

Excellent service as usual . Since recent revamp the food seems 'lighter' if that means anything! Decor again much improved and more modern.

Live singer is not intrusive and will sing requests .

Overall a much improved experience so ignore older reviews .

Will definately be returning soon.

I recently went to the Ancora with my mum for lunch. I'm a fussy eater so asked for something that wasn't on the menu as such and they did not hesitate to help me out. The meal I had was delicious and very filling. I went back the following week on a Sunday and had the Sunday roast dinner. It was very tasty. Especially the roast potatoes. Would deffinitley go back again.

Ata at Ancora last week with a party of friends,we were a bit akward at times, but the staff were nothing but brillient. Food was plentiful and hot plenty of choice.previuos posts said it was overpriced? go and eat in local pubs and see if it is any cheaper!! ( and you dont get the service or indeed the size portions). We all left full ( and a bit squiffy)and will be returning as soon as we can

Go and try it yourself, do not listen to others!!!!

As a regular customer at the Ancora I was disappointed to read some of the reviews. The restaurant was re decorated last year and is bright and clean. The food is always excellent - cooked fresh to order with a huge selection to suit all dietary requirements. Staff are friendly and helpful. As for value for money - when you consider sunday lunch is only £16.50 for 3 courses and coffee and is fresh with plenty of veg and plenty of choice, it beats many of the local carveries, pubs and so called bistros hands down. I would recommend it to anybody for any occasion.

Had a child recently and first time out in a while. Thought we would go to one of our old haunts, Ancora. Was really looking forard to it but bitterly disappointed. Decor looks much more tired and grubby than before. Food was poor and we waited ages for our main meal. Whilst the staff were as friendly as they used to be they had not accomodated for the large party they had in for their speciality night. We had to therefore wait for them all to be served their starter before we got our main meal. When steak arrived it was chewy and the lamb was tasteless. If we had not waited so long for the meal and had to get home for our babysitter we would have sent it back. The decor and the fact there is no parking used to be compensated for with the good quality food and service but unfortunately Ancora fell down on all counts.

Had a meal with the family on 7th March 2010, bit reluctant to go as I have been reading the reviews, but my Mum lives locally and has been before. Was very surprised how much I enjoyed my meal and the atmosphere was good, food was excellent along with the service. Will be going back later in the year for a family birthday party evening.

i recomened this resturant anyone.

Over Priced and cramped. Not helpful at all when we had a problem with the food. Won't be going back there in a hurry

It is the best place i have ever been to for food the service is amazing as i went on my birthday they sang happy birthday, the perople in the resturant are very friendly can always help you if you aheva problem with the food. There id no bad points about the food its very tasty and is also very filling.

They could have a bit more of a choice of food.

The prices are a bit over pricesd but that still hasnt stop me from going there i would recommend that you go there and try it for yourself
