Coastal Comfort, Freshly Made

At The Anchor, our mission is simple: serve good food that brings joy. We believe in the power of a great meal—not just to satisfy hunger, but to lift spirits, create memories, and bring people together.

Our menu is rooted in fresh, hearty comfort food—from crispy fries and juicy burgers to creamy mac and cheese, pulled pork, waffles, egg sandwiches, cookies, muffins, and scones. Every dish is made with care, using quality ingredients, and served in a welcoming space designed for connection and community.

But The Anchor is more than just a restaurant—it’s a dream brought to life by couple, Richard Buchanan and Mario Schiavone, who turned their shared love of food and hospitality into a place where everyone is welcome.

Richard brings decades of experience in the culinary world. From fine dining to fast casual, he’s worked in every corner of the restaurant industry—developing menus, managing teams, and ensuring every plate meets the highest standard. His talent lies not just in cooking, but in creating kitchens and systems that run smoothly, with heart at their center.

Mario’s path to The Anchor began at the table—with his mom, who had a gift for feeding people in a way that made them feel loved. That early inspiration led him to a career focused on bringing people together, first through marketing and later through hospitality design. Whether analyzing food trends or creating spaces that invite people to stay a little longer, Mario’s passion has always been about creating joy through food and atmosphere.

Together, Richard and Mario have built The Anchor as a place to share their values: warm hospitality, honest food, and the simple joy of a really good meal.

Come indulge your craving, take in the view, and experience a little coastal comfort—freshly made, from our hearts to your plate.
