This place is doing loads better! Open mic night is great. It's gone from a grubby bad rep pub to a lovely little music hub.

I played here with my band, Dr.T-Bone, in December 2021 and we found the place to be a real gem. It’s a great place to to quaff a few beers, to listen to live music and/or to perform. We enjoyed performing for a lively and appreciative audience and the place attracts a nice and varied crowd. The staff are exceptionally pleasant and welcoming and the guys organising the music really know their stuff. The decor is good and there’s a great atmosphere.

Now under new management and a great music venue for all styles and types of performers. We had a fantastic time last night 30th October! Our band B.O.B played for the customers and staff @ the The Boar's Head fantastic atmosphere and received a phenomenal reception to our music and performance. We had audience participation with singing and dancing which we very much appreciate, so we must be doing something right. This was our first gig in this pub, and it won't be our last!!! It was a great night and having such a buzz playing there. Thank you for your hospitality and hope to be back in 2022 to rock with you all again. B.O.B band. 🙂

Visited this establishment just before the welsh lockdown and I will never revisit the owner is rude and serves drinks from dirty glasses and I assume that's why the beer tastes awful and is flat, they operate an over 21s policy but that depends on who you are males over 21 get turned away but females of the same age are welcomed. If you like a good pint served with manners by a decent owner maybe vist another pub as you won't get anything pleasant here.

Staff here are fantastic. A great place to stay, better than most hotels. Spent two weeks here no hassle. Rooms are clean and have great facilities. Busy in the pub Friday and Saturday night but dont hear it in the rooms upstairs. I would stay here again definitely.

Very poor customer services , bar area dirty and grubby , very badly managed , food looked like it was still edible leftovers that had been sent back to kitchens then reheated on another order ! Toilets were a shambles toilet rolls not even on toilet roll holders , soap dispensers were crusty with old soap residue . Overall a very poor place to attend if looking for pleasentaries .!!

Turned up late in the evening on a motorcycle. Staff promptly got me to move it to a small courtyard with cctv. Was shown up to a very clean and comfortable room, was offered use of a communal kitchen where I was able to tumble dry my soaking wet gear. Staff here are amazing, nothing is too much trouble. They don’t do food, but there’s a Wetherspoons almost next door. Yes you can hear music on a Saturday night, but it’s no worse than your kids raiding the fridge while you pretend to be asleep. Very comfortable bed.

I was a bit apprehensive considering the past reviews but found they were from previous ownership. The pub is very friendly and the B&B rooms are newly decorated and very nice for a good price. Very pleasantly surprised

Bouncer wouldn't let us in for a reason he didn't feel obliged to disclose. When we offered to play for entry he replied 'I take much more from the dealers in here!'

This is the most horrible place ive ever seen. I used to drink here all the time and used to be my local . I moved away from the area and moved back to holywell in 2015 . I came back to drink in the boars and what a saw was astonishing . The place was like a youth club . Full of 14 year old girls . There was more people in the toilets sniffing drugs and smoking tin pipes of some sort. The place had a stench of strong body odour to it .there was really really loud music and smoke machines .this place has really turned into a chavvy pub . Please someone clean the place up . This uses to be a great pub when previous landlords had it .get darron kyristie out . Thank you x

Increasingly in the past year or so, I have encountered issues with the handheld self-scan devices, whereby either a handheld device remains locked in its docking station upon pick-up, or the handheld has trouble scanning some barcodes during the shop - forcing several attempts on the same item and/or being forced to select another off the shelf to scan instead. The trouble with these unprovoked anomalies is that they often result in a check, either partial or (worst case) full, at checkout. Yesterday, at the Mold store in Flintshire, upon scanning my Clubcard to collect a scanner the screen instructed me to speak with a member of staff. It transpired that the "system" believed I had not returned the scanner used in my shop last week, and had consequently locked my Clubcard to prevent me from walking away with another! Ironically, the week prior, I was engaged in conversation with one of the shift managers at the point of scanning my completed shop and she witnessed me return the "missing" handheld scanner. Obvious flaw here: If Tesco instructs customers to deposit the handheld in a publicly accessible area once checkout is complete, at that point Tesco has to accept, by definition, that the customer relinquishes all responsibility for that device, from that moment onwards. It is inconceivable to me that a system could be set-up (and rolled-out across the nation, it would seem) with such flawed logic, that a million and one things could happen to that device after the customer has innocently deposited it in the rack, as instructed, and yet that same last user is then held accountable (according to the system) for it's safe return to a docking station. That is clearly what the on screen message indicated to me yesterday when I tried to collect a handheld and it is wholly wrong! At the completion of yesterday's shop, not surprisingly, a full-check was triggered at check-out. In this particular case I half expected it and so went about making light of the situation with the staff. So far that morning though, THROUGH ABSOLUTELY NO FAULT OF MY OWN, I'd had my Clubcard frozen on (false) suspicion that I previously stole a scanner, was instructed as such on the screen for anyone to read, and had now been subjected to a full-check as a consequence. The young lady who performed the full check missed two items - meaning she did not scan two items which I had – meaning, effectively, that I now stood accused of gifting money to Tesco by scanning items to pay for and leaving them on the shelf! I promptly pointed out the two items she'd missed but sadly not before a manager had witnessed the young lady simply stating "there are two items missing", immediately implicating me as someone who has tried to take items without paying. The young lady quickly scanned in the two "missing" items and I deposited my concern (calmly) that this might trigger another full check next week. I was met with the following from the young lady: "It's done now and I don't want to talk about it anymore", before she simply walked away. In summary: - Tesco's handheld system has a completely flawed built-in logic, which effectively holds the last using customer responsible for its safe return to the dock, in spite of on screen instructions to deposit that handheld in a publicly accessible wooden rack next to the check-out after paying. - Tesco's flawed system holds customers to account, via full checks, for any and all system anomalies encountered with the handheld device, from failed attempts to retrieve locked-in devices upon collection, to failed attempts to scan barcodes during a shop - Tesco's staff appear to be empowered to determine their own personal limits in customer interactions, and impose them sharply and without consequence, as and when it takes their fancy. I hope customers will read this and make up their own minds before rushing to use those handhelds at Tesco, or indeed shop there at all. But for Tesco: really, this is not a set of attitudes you should be proud of displaying, neither through your systems nor your staff.

We have been visiting the glasfryn for years and have always enjoyed the customer service and the food. However, today the service was very poor, sides came 10 minutes after our food and we had to ask for our table to be cleared 25 minutes after we had finished. The food was ok but not as good as it used to be. We will be thinking twice before coming again unfortunately.

This place fits the cliche of a flat roofed pub perfectly. Absolute dive full of total k**bs. It's like being in Shameless, but less funny.

Went to have coffee and cake on a busy Saturday afternoon. It was busy, but this was due to the nice weather and limited staff. The choice of cakes and treats is really good, staff are friendly and efficient and we had a lovely rest. The red velvet cake was delicious and the cream tea was so fresh and yummy. Well everyone at the cafe.
