An official ‘Ribbon Cutting’ will take place on December 12, 2024 at 2:00 PM, which is being coordinated by Becky McDonough, CEO of the Hopewell/Prince George Chamber of Commerce.

Earlier this year, the property was acquired by Delta Citation, a private equity and real estate holding company committed to preserving the legacy of iconic spaces. Recognizing the profound significance of the Anchor Room to the Hopewell community, Ray Miller, principal of Delta Citation, made it a priority to retain the establishment’s character while modernizing its facilities.

“The Anchor Room is more than just a restaurant – it’s a place where generations of memories have been made,” said Miller. “We felt a responsibility to honor its heritage and ensure it remains a place for the community to gather for years to come.”

Under the new ownership of Victoria and Eric Robinson, the Anchor Room Bar & Grill enters an exciting new chapter. The Robinsons share a deep appreciation for the establishment’s rich history and are eager to carry forward its legacy while offering a fresh, revitalized dining experience.

“We’re thrilled to introduce the renovated Anchor Room to the community,” said Victoria Robinson. “Our goal is to create a space where both longtime patrons and new visitors feel at home, surrounded by the stories and traditions that make this place so special.”

The extensive renovations by Delta Citation have transformed the Anchor Room into a welcoming space that balances modern amenities with its historic charm. From updated interiors to enhanced guest experiences, the new design ensures the Anchor Room continues to be a beloved destination for locals and visitors alike.
