About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Great for brunch
The Village Anchor offers a unique setting in Louisville’s east end, both for personal and professional occasions. The Village Anchor Restaurant and Anchor Bar on the main floor bring together stone, red leathers, rich worn velvets, wrought iron, dark woods, Italian appointments, Carrera marble, and the original crimson red beer taps from Churchill Down’s Silks Bar. It offers an upscale-casual, fun environment with an inimitable European flavor and exotic French flair. The lower level Sea Hag Pub offers a completely different look and feel. The “Hag” brings together brick, worn woods, hand-wrought iron, stone, and copper. The 30-foot copper bar with built-in ice troughs chill your favorite brew or wine.

Please recognize that we do our best to accommodate patio dining reservations, though seating is based on weather and availability.

    We went for the 50% off all entrees special. I ordered an entree salad and did not get the 50% discount. It wasn’t clear from the flyer and I would have thought our server would have informed me of this since we mentioned the special. She seemed to be in a hurry the whole night - I respect she had other tables and wasn’t expecting her to spend a lot of time with us. She even delivered our appetizers and we had to catch her before she left because we didn’t have silverware/napkins/soup spoon. Just disappointed with our visit this time because we usually really enjoy our visits there and we don’t go often and consider it a special treat when we do.

    Hi Cathy – Thank you for the candid review and for joining us for our Anniversary special. I’m sorry to hear this visit didn’t match the level of care and clarity you’ve come to expect from us. The confusion around the 50% off promotion is on us – if a guest mentions a special, the server should confirm exactly what’s included. That clearly didn’t happen here, and that’s a training opportunity we’re acting on immediately. As for the rushed service and missing table setup – totally unacceptable, especially when you’re treating this like a special night out. We’d love the chance to turn that around next visit. If you're open to it, please reach out directly or ask for a manager when you return – we’d like to make this right. Sincerely. John Wilson General Manager

    The food and service were great. Beautiful night to eat on the covered porch!
    The Village AnchorResponded 6 days ago
    Hey there – Now that’s what we love to hear. Food, service, and the patio all hitting just right? That’s the exact experience we aim to deliver – and it sounds like you caught us on a perfect night. Thanks for taking the time to share the love – it goes a long way. Next time you’re in, ask for a manager – we’d love to thank you in person and make sure round two is just as memorable. Appreciate you,

    Wonderful! We sat outside in courtyard on a beautiful day with our dog. Service was excellent and they were so kind to our dog bringing him a bowl of water and petting him - also not laughing when husband ordered the dog a cheeseburger child’s plate 🤣. Food was excellent also. Highly recommend!

    Alex – You just made our day. Five stars across the board? That’s the scoreboard we play for, and it’s damn good to see we delivered. Food excellent. Service even better. That’s a one-two punch we train hard to hit every shift – so shoutout to the team for making it happen on your visit. Appreciate you choosing us and taking the time to leave the love. When you come back (and we hope that’s soon), ask for a manager – we’d love to thank you in person. Cheers,
