    Roast dinners were delicious but I’ve desserts were questionable with under cooked crumble and cold Crème Brulee. The main reason for a low score is due to service. The staff are not attentive, got our order wrong several times, seemed annoyed if we asked for anything and over charged us. Staff definitely let the place down!

    Been four times previously and ate from the main menu or had a Sunday roast. All have been great tasting and enjoyable. Last night's Valentine meal wasn't up to the usual standards across the board.

    Have eaten before at the Boars and both food and service usually excellent. However, this time, whilst the majority of the meal was good, the main consisting of steak was very fatty and had to leave most of it. That said every restaurant can have a bad night. We will eat there again… service is always good and love the Pub itself. Great location, lovely ambiance.
