Atmosphere is great but games haven't kept pace and now pretty run down. Shame as main reason to use venue. Shuffle board now not electronic, pool tables are beyond awful, stick to the darts.

I attended a corporate event at On The Boards and was impressed with the beers and food, but more so the level of of customer service from Steve and his team was of a standard that is sadly seldom seen these days. Great work, great place to visit and thoroughly recommended and as a bonus they have reopened the late bar upstairs

I wholeheartedly recommend On the Boards - we had a group booking for games and food. The member of staff there was amazing, nothing was too much trouble and it was a busy day so he had a lot going on. All of our young people with parents/carers absolutely had a fab time. We will definitely be returning :-)

What a fantastic sports bar! Darts, pool, shuffleboard, lots of choices for cocktails and live TV as well! Just wish there were more of these places on the map. Only negative is that parking involves going in the council car park.

On the boards boasts excellent drinks, a fantastic atmosphere, and some seriously fun games! We had a great night with friends playing shuffleboard and pool. None of the group had played shuffleboard before and the staff explained it for us before we began! We had such a fun night and easily could have spent many more hours there too. I recommend booking in advance for a Saturday night as it does get busy. We ate before we went so I couldn't speak to the food but the drinks were good. We will definitely be back!

Ok venue if you're out with the boys and want to drink and play games, as for the food think 10 year old birthday party. Pizza chips and chicken strips. Mum has clearly gone to Iceland.

We visited here (having pre-booked) as part of my hen-do. The games were really good fun, but we were very much left to our own devices - have visited similar places outside of Cornwall and usually get a very friendly greeting and explanation of how things work. Also, we were served at the bar incredibly slowly - it was reasonably busy, but it didn’t seem busy enough to warrant how slow we were served. I would return, but would go in with lower expectations next time!

Always very friendly and lovely staff. We were even able to get a free game or two of ping pong as we waited for our next game to be free which was really lovely. We went for my birthday and when mentioning it in conversation the bar tender poured us all shots which was so nice!(I didn't catch his name but I do know he had a dark brown mullet)

Pricing is above average especially when considering drink choice. The games are good but you are essentially paying for games refereed by a computer monitor. Be careful on the beer pong which is £10 for the table and £25 for the beer (tasted incredibly cheap that nobody liked) The beer pong table we used didn't seem anything more than a coloured table in which case we could have played the game ourselves at home. I am sure it is supposed to be more interactive as the entire time it stayed orange and the timer didn't function or buttons. Staff seemed rushed to deal with you and didn't check up on our experience at all. I have been here twice and overall it's not a bad place but both times we haven't always felt the experience was worth the price. It is nicely decorated and has a clean feel with a good ambience.

They also offer other games like beer pong, shuttle board and pool. We are surprised this place isn’t busier. Highly recommend !!

We live over a 6 hour drive away, and when we visit Cornwall (we have family there) we always spend a few hours visiting this place, there is no where else like it in the country. Brand new very high quality environment, with proper dart boards and darts that are electronic and automatically score etc. The highest quality money can buy snooker table and table tennis table etc also. The staff are super friendly, great laid back atmosphere and the drinks are delicious (we haven't tried the food yet). This place is a gem and Truro/Cornwall are lucky to have it!

A great new addition to truro. Really good fun regardless of ability. You really need a group of 4 to make it decent we had a group of 8. Everyone always involved with very little dead time between goes. Shuffleboard was particularly good. Clever technology tracking your points etc. Everyone can get involved. Definitely good for people from 18 plus no real upper age limit nothing is too over active. Great host's and staff. Pricing for games is reasonable but you do need to pre book. Food was lovely but not much choice and were more like snacks and sharing bowels.I would definitely eat before then go. Good selection of drinks. Overall a great venue owners should be very proud. Great addition.

Well, where to start...... I do love the back story of the name, and it was probably the first thing I noticed when looking for somewhere to eat. This restaurant specialises in American and Mexican dishes that are all made in house. From burger buns and tortillas to ketchup. The restaurant is clean and tidy with a small mini bar at the front. The website warns that they don't take bookings, but when it's busy will take your number, then text you when your table is free. You can wait at the bar, or even leave. But don't be tempted to eat somewhere else, it's not worth it! The staff are friendly, and attentive with food orders cooked fresh for you. So, to the bit you really want. Cons (first, because everyone just normally skips to this bit): *Soda (Coke) seemed a bit flat. *Proper chips are nice, but were a bit salty. Would have preferred triple cooked chunky. *Food does take a bit of time to come. This isn't a problem, as it all arrives cooked and tasty. But I did notice a larger table getting impatient. *Parking, with the restaurant on the main Street in saltash, you have to use a pay and display. But it's located very nearby. Pros: *Fresh home made meals. *Friendly staff *Good décor *Damn good food..I mean it's really good. Would we go again? Yes. I'm full writing this now, and still thinking about the Queso dip. I want more of it. Like right now. Well done guys and girls, we was looking for a Mexican restaurant to win us over, and your it. We will be back! Edit: It's been a few months now. And I'm still thinking about that Queso dip Updated review October 2024. Just went back here...... When I wake up from the food coma in the next few days I might leave a more detailed review. But short and sweet, queso dip is still very good. Chicken wings in hot sauce made my face tingle and I loved every mouth fall. The chimichanga was a bit greasy from its cooking. The enchiladas are just brilliant. The Mucky fries are yummy, but I wish the chilli con carne was a bit spicier. I weighted myself leaving the house and I am lying here trying not to die with 2.25kg of food in my stomach. It hurts, and I have mexican flavour burps. My only regret is I got gym in the morning, and it might kill me. 2025 update: After I just finished digesting the last meal, I went back for seconds....... I asked for the enchiladas to be made extra spicy. They were great. But I have been training at the gym for the last 2 years, and this place will single-handedly break me.
