"It was almost empty when we arrived at 1230 midweek but filled up later. A choice of handpump beers which we were offered to taste, as well as the usual selection of gassy national brands. We had the three course lunch menu which we enjoyed. My salmon pate was a pleasant starter but the melba toast was offputtingly hard, putting teeth at risk. Softer toast would have been much better. My moules marinieres were quite perfectly cooked in contrast to the usual slightly overdone style elsewhere. The spiced focaccia, was tasty but over olive oiled so that it was too heavy to mop up the excellent mariniere sauce. The extra chips (my choice! were almost superfluous. A fellow diner enjoyed the confit duck Leg, pepper stew and mash. The espresso coffee was of high standard. There was one young lady waitressing for several tables which she did with aplomb. All in all, a good lunch in comfortable surroundings. Please note that off road parking is very limited so arrive early."

Delicious lunch I opted for Fish of the day (Sea Bass) perfectly cooked with Samphire and Capers, followed by creme brulee, I think the best Creme Brulee in England. Well worth a visit.

Our second visit to this restaurant was just as enjoyable as the first. The meals were delicious, the staff was friendly, and despite it being busy, we were seated promptly without any long waits. The desserts were also delicious, and we would happily return for another dining experience. Visualizza piatti

We visited The Boars on a Tuesday evening when they do most main meals for £10. We arrived and was met by the staff promptly seated and our drinks and food orders were taken. The food came and all portions were great and all the food delicious. It was a lovely evening and the staff were pleasant and polite. Will definitely return. (Infact we've booked for next Tuesday : Highly recommend

Our mains were delicious but our desserts were very disappointing, one very over cooked, one tasted stodgy and stale. I should have picked the creme brûlée which is always delicious. I was treating someone for a special birthday so it wasn’t nice that the waiting staff felt the need to openly discuss the price of each main which I felt was unnecessary and made my friend feel uncomfortable.

We recently returned to this restaurant for lunch and were pleasantly surprised. The interior decor has been upgraded nicely since lockdown, and the dog-friendly Agricultural Bar also looks great. We ordered the Posh Fish Finger sandwich and drinks, and the dressing on the salad was superb. The overall taste and quality were really good. The staff were friendly and helpful as well. We will definitely be returning to this restaurant again. Visualizza piatti

Last minute decision to dine out led us to book a table at the Boars. I had never been before, but my partner had visited a couple of times in the past. We started with crab croquettes, which were decent. My partner found her lamb burger to be a bit dry and lacking in creativity, while I enjoyed the crab linguine. For dessert, I had a lemon syrup sponge with ginger ice cream and my partner opted for crème brûlée, both of which we found delicious. The service was friendly and efficient, although we regretted sitting outside as the wasps were attracted to my cider. The restaurant was surprisingly busy for a Wednesday, creating a nice atmosphere on a lovely summer evening. I personally enjoyed...

A bit of a mixed review. We visited Friday evening. We sat out in the beautiful beer garden and one of the waitresses came to take our drinks order. We asked only about Alcohol free options and chose a few AF beers. We're brought out 2 pints of Peroni and could tell they were alcoholic. That could have been quite a disaster for someone who can't drink! 2 correct beers then brought out. We then were waiting ages for someone to take our food order (it wasn't busy otherwise would have understood this) in the end had to go in and found most of the waiting staff stood around chatting to request our orders taken. Food was good, request to have some as takeaway was happily dealt with. Just looks li...

"Where do I even begin? The service from the woman behind the bar was shocking. When I inquired about dairy-free options for my son, I was told that nothing could be modified and that they don't cater to allergies at all! I pointed out the menu's claim that they could accommodate such needs, but my concerns were met with an eye roll. I then tried to order him some chips, but was told they were fried in the same oil as dairy and meat products, and since we are vegetarian, that wouldn't work. I asked about the vegan dishes, only to learn that they are also prepared alongside meat products, so there's no guarantee they would actually be vegan. At this point, my daughters had already become excited about eating out and the play area, so I reluctantly decided to go along with it and ordered three sandwiches on granary bread and a child's fish and chips. My son had a packet of crisps. When the sandwiches arrived, they were absolutely terrible. The cheese and onion sandwich consisted of two slices of cheap store-bought bread, some pre-grated cheese, and a few onion slices—without even a hint of butter! It certainly wasn’t inexpensive; we paid £45 for four soft drinks, three sandwiches, and a child's meal. As for the play area, it was concerning—there were sharp screws poking through the wood chips, loose sharp fixtures on top of the slide, and a large exposed electric cable under the swings! We decided to leave swiftly; it was such a disappointing way to end our holiday, when it should have been a lovely final meal before heading home. I was appalled by their attitude towards me—I felt like an inconvenience. The food was awful, and I genuinely recommend avoiding this place if you are vegan or have allergies; even if a dish is labeled vegan, they certainly don’t take the necessary precautions to keep it separate from meat products. It’s truly unfortunate, as the location by the river is beautiful, and we were all so excited to be there, but we left feeling very disappointed. We definitely won't be returning."
