☀️🍦 Heatwave plans this bank holiday? We’ve got you covered…

Come and cool down at The Anchor Café at Upton Boat Yard — the perfect riverside spot to escape the heat and slow the pace for a while.
Treat yourself to a delicious ice cream from Marshfield Farm Ice Cream, made on their family farm near Bath using fresh milk from their own herd of cows. Their award-winning ice cream has been made on the farm for over 35 years and every flavour is created just metres from where the milk is produced!
We’ve also got refreshing iced lattes, fresh coffee, homemade cake, and plenty of sunshine waiting for you. 🌿☕🍰
Sit back by the beautiful River Bure, soak up the nature, and watch the boatyard in action as the world drifts by.

What a wonderful day at the Anchor Café yesterday ⚓️☕️

We were delighted to open our doors for a very special private hire celebrating the birthday of one of our fabulous regular customers. Guests arrived in true Norfolk style aboard the magnificent 127-year-old Wherry Albion — one of only two remaining commercial Norfolk Wherries built specifically for the Broads. Known as a “black sailed trader”, she made quite the entrance at Upton Boatyard 🖤⛵️
A huge thank you to the wonderful Kelda for providing a delicious lunch, and to Frosty for the beautiful accordion music that made the afternoon even more magical 🎶
The Anchor Café is available for private hire events, celebrations and gatherings.
