I can highly recommend this place for the food and drink. Having eaten in many pubs this place is a hidden gem the food is excellent and the service is second to none. You will struggle to beat the prices for the food and the drink. The atmosphere is so relaxing with proper background music. Just try it . Highly recommend. Regards from an experienced diner

Absolutely home from home Sunday lunch. Children under 8 eat free with every paying adult. Soup included in price for £10.95. Meat when we went was beef, gammon and turkey. Would highly recommend

Absolutely brilliant. Myself and my partner have been the last 3 Monday afternoons. I have had the sausage and mash with onion gravy - she hashad the club sandwich and yesterday she had the gourmet burger. ALL the food has been excellent - the gourmet chips deserve a special mention !! She is working this Sunday and I'm actually thinking of nipping in for a solo Sunday Carvery :-) Staff are really nice and helpful too. Support your local pubs - or lose them - this is NOT a Beefeater, Sizzling, Punch identikit pub - it's a true local that welcomes everybody. FY3 9PL if you are visitng Blackpool do yourself a favour and stick that postcode in your sat nav. As an ex Pub Landlord for 20 years I am really picky when it comes to Pubs - this is one of the best.

The Boars Head consistently serves excellent freshly prepared home cooked food at an affordable price with very generous portions. The standard menu caters for everyone including vegetarians and vegans plus there is a weekly changing specials section. It is a very friendly pub and everyone is always welcoming. It is our pub of choice and regularly make the 20-30 minute drive to eat here in preference to any of the other alternatives available.

Excellent food served piping hot. The barmaid who appeared to be the only one who was serving at the time we were visiting the pub for our lunch was really friendly and caring enough that when she made a.m. error and unfortunately served me the incorrect dessert she was able to rectify the small error and ALL was ok. I feel that I would definitely recommend The Board Head on Preston Old Road if you're ever in the area

Lovely homely pub. Went there to eat a meal after work on a weekday. Pub was recommended to us to try. Menus were not on the tables, but staff members were helpful and welcoming. I had chicken burger and partner had hunters chicken. Meals were large and had proper chips on them, in fact found it difficult to finish meal. Excellent value for money and food was nicely presented on a plate and tasty. Will definitely be returning. Lots of pros to going there, only con was no or very limited parking. Had to park on street nearby

We didn't stay long but the lady working there was very accommodating and there was a big selection of unusual beers and spirits which is always good for me! Menu wasn't big and wasn't cheap but we didn't eat so cant comment on quality. Area outside looked a bit tired and some of the tables looked on their last legs but otherwise ok.

My partner, son and myself came to the Boars Head for the mother's day carvery. Even though it was very busy. The staff greeted us on arrival and made sure we had a nice clean table. There was free homemade soup with the carvery. Which today was vegetable. On the carvery were three different meats. Gammon, beef and pork, Yorkshire pudding, stuffing balls mash, roast potatoes and lots of different veg, gravy, all sauces and everything was home cooked. Also if you could fit it in for two pounds extra. There was sponge and custard. It was a lovely atmosphere, and we had a very enjoyable afternoon, and we will definitely be returning.

Food was lovely and customer service skills were excellent kept doing check backs it was busy with a great atmosphere , even when we left they acknowledged us and said have a great holiday...have travelled many times past the road when staying at the hotel and didn't know it was there , we will certainly be calling again and I will definitely mention it when I go back to work and anyone says they are staying in the area. What I call a proper pub keep doing what your doing .

We saw the positive reviews so thought we give it a try. A charming traditional pub with a cozy warm and friendly atmosphere, the staff were friendly and polite. Someone in our group had the ‘golden years’ for over 60’s 3 course for only £7.95 amazing value and choice. Good selection on their regular menu, starters mains and desserts all very reasonably priced. They had a good selection of drinks on the bar again reasonably priced. Have found a new place to eat will definitely be going back might even go in for a pint one night. Thank you guys a real credit to the management and staff especially in the pub business during these difficult times. Pics are a selection from the 3 course

We decided to eat I had lasagne which I'm always wary about as I am the a dab hand at making it myself but there's was absolutely outstanding. We decided to book in for Sunday dinner all homemade the apricot and sausage meat stuffing and the marmite garlic potatoes, the meat cooked to perfection, I have a feeling my oven won't be used much . Well done to all at the Boars Head
