Anchors Aweigh Dive Bar — Restaurant in Deerfield Beach

I visited on Monday for the primary reason of it was the venue for the poker league tonight. The place doesn't seem to be in the safest of neighborhoods, but I didn't factor that into the score. I probably would have given 5 stars because the service, the pour of my drink, the price, and environment feel is top notch. Such a neat interior. I love playing pool and it was fire to see a pool table. I did not play though. So, I deduct 2 stars from 5 because the bar did not offer food. Kitchen was closed today. I strongly disagree with drinking without a source of food in your stomach. That's my opinion. Likely won't visit back mainly because it's out of my way, but this place has potential.

*I revisited this evening. I order steak fritas. The plate presentation and cook on the steak was great. The fries were underdone for certain, but had good seasoning on them. Steak was subpar in my opinion. Dipping sauce prepared on side was good. Overall, I'm keeping the...

I’m a local and I’ve been coming to this location for years but with brand new management this place got the much deserved needed facelift. Great place for a low key get together, local Dive bar to just chill and grab a few beers or drinks, shoot some pool and if you have a bad day just meet all different kinds of people. Bartenders are amazing…especially Deborah and Tina! Super friendly and great for laughs I love them! Great prices, music is always playing and you can play your own music. Live band weekends are the best good time to dance. Food! The tacos are savageeeeeeee!!!! Haven’t had a chance to try the rest of the stuff on the menu but I’m sure it will be good too. Wish they had late night snacks but it’s new. Lastly, management….for the matter of months for new ownership has had to make changes it’s worth every penny. Best part it’s local…..smoke free inside but do your thing in the back patio...

In a series of unforeseen events, I had to take a quick Greyhound bus from Naples over to this area. After the ride on the bus and an Uber that cost me more than 2x than the bus, I landed at the hotel safely. In need of a cold libation and some sustenance. I quickly googled a casual spot nearby and scurried over to Anchors Aweigh to find out that I arrived just after the kitchen closed. Nick (the bartender) provided me with a menu to a nearby pizza joint that I could order from and enjoy some food at the bar (I am handicap and unable to walk.) Unfortunately this place was closed on Mondays. Just as I was feeling at my wit’s end, Nick emerged from the kitchen with a little food to satisfy my tummy. I am eternally grateful for this HOSPITALITY. I’ll anchor here again the next time...
