Clare Hudson

We recently celebrated our son’s 18th birthday at The Rope and Anchor, and I cannot praise the staff highly enough. Our son is autistic and has complex needs, and from the moment we arrived, every single member of the team went above and beyond to make the evening comfortable, joyful, and completely stress-free.

The kindness, patience, and attentiveness shown by the staff meant so much to us as a family. They were incredibly accommodating, making thoughtful adjustments without being asked, and treated our son—and all of us—with genuine warmth and respect. The food was fantastic, the space was perfect for our group, and the whole evening felt relaxed and welcoming.
