Boars Head Pub in Horsham

I cannot begin to tell you how poor our turkey christmas meal was today. The meal was luke warm. Turkey had no flavour; roast potatoes had been previously cooked and not reheated properly; vegetables were nothing to shout home about and service was very laid back to say the least. What was meant to be a most enjoyable family meal quite honestly was a huge disappointment. I would not return to this site again even if someone paid me.

A great night. They were friendly and welcoming. Very busy but service was still excellent, even in the bar area. Food was lovely and no long wait considering how busy they were. Both courses were delicious and portioned perfectly. Very impressed. Would recommend.

Had a girls annual Xmas get together here. At first the staff were great, welcoming, attentive and couldn’t do enough for us we all ordered and waited a reasonable time for a table of 10. When the food arrived one of my friends noticed a rather large light hair in another one of the girls food. She proceeded to pull the hair out and called the Waitress over to tell her. The waitress offered to get her a replacement which would take around 10 minutes to cook, considering we were all halfway through our meal my friend merely said I’m happy to just eat around that part but I don’t believe I should be charged for it. By the time the new one comes out everyone will be finished. Considering we were on a strict time scale to return the table also all this was taken into account. The waitress replied and advised my friend that would not be an issue and she will go and inform the manager. Nothing else was said. The bill arrives, considering the amount of food and drinks that was on there I’m surprised we managed to notice but the contaminated meal was still present on the bill. To which may friend politely went over to the waitress to point it out. At that point the manager came over to advise that this meal will not be removed and we were Infact liable to pay for it and they did not believe there was a hair in the food. My friend continued to protest only for the general manager to send the head chef out. I can honestly say of all the restaurants I have attended for a member of staff to come out and speak to a table of women the way he did was disgusting. He then threatened to call the police if the meal was not paid for and was extremely aggressive and rude, I appreciate a few women at the table got frustrated and raised their voice at this point but with a camera directly above our table which we pointed out that if they checked the footage they would actually see the hair being removed from the plate (this was refused) it was quite honestly embarrassing and vile. I for one will not be returning to the board head. If accountability was taken by the restaurant or perhaps the waitress returned to say this would have been the outcome prior this could have been a much more pleasant ending.

The spot is an amazing pub/restaurant. Best food that we had in years. Staff were friendly and helpful. Especially Malcom and Felix. Do not know the name of the chef but he was the star of the day. Will definitely go back to enjoy the food and cosy atmosphere 😀.

Great atmosphere, amazing home cooked food and hilarious staff! For a pub that has gone up and down it is now soaring! Highly recommended

We've visited the Boars Head a few times recently and it has been consistently excellent. Today we both had the beef bourguignon, it was delicious. A generous portion of beautifully tender beef with mash made for a great meal, dessert was an impossibility on this occasion. The welcome and service has been impeccable on every visit as well The management are clearly working hard to achieve and maintain a high standard in every aspect of what they do. We ate mid-afternoon today (Saturday) without booking but I'd suggest that booking is essential for lunch and evening meals at the weekends. We have also had the Sunday lunch on a couple of occasions and that has been to the same standard.

Food and atmosphere top class. Friendly staff who always go the extra mile. The Boars Head is always one of my favourite places to go to. I would highly recommend avisit

The food and service is always excellent From the moment you walk in there is a genuine and friendly welcome however busy they are. The menu is varied and extensive with a wide choice of wines and bar drinks including great cocktails always served with a smile. The Sunday lunch is the our favourite with the best roast beef with unlimited potatoes and gravy, and a great choice of desserts. Thanks Umut, Malcolm and the team,see you again soon. Sue & Mike

Cannot recommend the Boars Head highly enough. We were in Horsham for a few nights and booked for dinner. The food was amazing and the service was outstanding. We chose the scotch egg and the calamari starters and they were delicious but when the mains arrived we were blown away - I had the belly pork and my husband had the teriyaki duck and both were fantastic. However, what made the night so amazing for us was the amazing service we had from Lisandra (hope I've spelt that right) she was just amazing and an absolute credit to the business! If I could I eat here every day I would! Thanks for a wonderful evening ❤️ Kez & Dave xxx

First visit here and will not be the last. The food, Sunday roast, was excellent with very generous portions and the staff were lovely, attentive, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Made to feel very welcome.

We've been to The Boar's Head today with friends. The meal was of very high quality. Excellent staff service, very attentive and nothing too much trouble. Would highly recommend the Sunday Roast.

Came in by chance for lunch and really pleased we did. Service was fantastic and all the staff were really friendly and helpful, even made a fuss of our twins. Food was brilliant, we had the set menu which we thought was great value for money. We will definitely be back especially to try the Sunday roast.

My husband and I had not been to The Boars Head for some years. We decided to try it for lunch for my husband’s birthday and we were not disappointed. The food was excellent we chose from their weekday set menu choice of two or three course, which was amazing value. The staff and service were without fault. We sat outside on a lovely terrace with relaxing views of the countryside. Definitely recommend this venue

We went first to the boars head when they had one of their live music acts and it was one of the most magical nights ever. We moved to a house close to the boars head and quickly it became our 2nd home. Not that the food was always delicious and the best to get in horsham and surrounding, but the most important was the staff. Every single member of the boars head is simply amazing. They’re all super kid friendly, our kids could do whatever kids do and no one ever was mad with them. The cocktails are outrageous and Emre kept surprising me with one of his drinks. 🍸 We did a farewell party there and everything was perfect! Umut and his chefs made the best food and the whole evening was magical! Malcolm, Lisandra, Felix, Emre, Jae, Emily, Angelito, Eddie and all of the other amazing people at the boars head: thank you for always making us feeling like family! You guys always made our stays a happening! To the chef Umut: keep on with your outstanding work, you are excellent! Lots of Love, Isabell, Artem, Freddie and Lilly!

Went tonight for a 2 course meal with 3 friends tonight . Arrived to a warm and friendly greeting and the food and hospitality was second to none! I’ve drank in this pub many times but never eaten there and boy have I been missing out! I literally cannot fault it. The food was delicious and the service was amazing. You need to go there! Cannot wait to go back. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Usual pub classics plus some extras that show some great creativity and care. The execution is very good indeed and the food tasted great. I had the Pork tacos and Beef short rib. Both were delicious, although I’d constructively recommend a soft shell taco as opposed to hard shell but this is splitting hairs over a great dish. Lovely service too.

Amazing quality food! Warm welcome for a large party of muddy guests from a local walk. Brilliant service. Well worth a visit.

Had such a good time at last nights Andy and Friends Jazz Night. Wonderful hospitality from the team at The Boars Head, lovely wine and top quality jazz. Will definitely be returning.

We revisited this fabulous pub for Sunday carvery lunch. Jae was very attentive and happy smiling lady. Nothing was too much trouble and we enjoyed her friendliness and enjoyed chatting to her. The Sunday lunch was excellent and the beef i had was wonderful as were the vegetables and roast potatoes. We had such a great time at this pub and we certainly return again.

A great pub with a great vibe. Very busy Sunday lunch. After waiting for our table for a short while, the manager apologised & showed us to our table. That was the start of a very enjoyable afternoon. The roast meals were top notch & plenty of it. Praise must also be given to all the friendly staff, who go that extra mile. We will be back. Thank you all.

Very friendly welcome. Good choice of drinks. Food very good and really well presented. Made a fuss of my spaniel with treats.

5* Sunday roast Great home cooked Sunday roast. Very attentive staff Lovely atmosphere inside pub Will be back again soon

Family birthday Sunday lunch for 10 . Very tasty food, nicely presented. exceptional service from all involved. Well done to all involved.

If you are in the Horsham area call into this pub for or evening meals. The food is top quality especially the homemade scotch eggs and seafood linguine. The atmosphere and staff are great well worth a visit 👍 Marcus and Lynn

The Boar's Head remains one of the best pubs in the area, especially for food. We ate from the lunch menu where 2 or 3 courses are very good value, and the food was fresh, well presented and tasted great. Service from the lovely Lisandra and team is excellent. We also like the environment - we prefer sitting in the bar area which we find is warmer and friendlier. Well done Boar's Head - make sure you keep hold of the chef!

Malcom, lissandra and team are fantastic, had our Xmas dinner here on Christmas day, food, atmosphere and service superb. Thank you so much for a great day.

Had Christmas dinner here, Awsome, Great food, Attentive friendly staff, Totally family friendly, Thank you to Malcolm for fitting us in at last minute, Absolute superstar!! Treat yourself and come here, you will not be disappointed, guaranteed!!

Malcolm and the team were very accommodating and helpful throughout the process of booking, pre-ordering and finally turning up on the day for our lovely 2/3 course meals. Our table of 12 picked from the range on offer and no-one was disappointed with their choice. Thank you all for a very lovely meal and environment.

Attended the Boars Head recently for a family Christmas meal for 19 people and the food and hospitality was outstanding. Malcolm (manager) was very accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. All 19 of us had an amazing meal and everyone was very complimentary of the food and service! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the Boars Head, thank you again!

Has to be the top Sunday roast of my life, lovely setting and excellent service, well worth a visit.

Excellent Sunday roast, in cosy pub with lovely surroundings. Service was good and staff very friendly. Small wait for our booked table as it was so busy, but actually that’s a good sign. Especially at the moment.
