The Blue Boar in Maldon

Lovely pub fantastic old building great staff

Cracking comedy night highly recommended

We met a friend here in the evening for a drink and parked in the car park whilst in the pub garden, at a glance, the signage said it's good to park there after 5pm... Apparently you have to also leave your reg plate and get a digital permit from behind the bar... we found this out as we got FINED £60 for not doing this?! Are you serious? We even contested it after paying within the 2 weeks, and you still said no refund, even after proving we were patrons of the pub. Maybe you can use that £60 towards making a clearer sign... What a scam, NEVER coming here again.

Lovely place to stay food and drink good

My husband and I stayed at Blue Boar for a couple of nights. The manager Emma and the staff Emma and Chloe were so helpful and friendly. Thank you for your hospitality. Heather Taylor

This is a very well loved micro brewery and historic Inn. There is always a good selection of ales and drinks. I have not stayed at the hotel.

Absolutely lovely hotel, very friendly staff especially the front of house staff, room spotless, great location, there was a private party going on, but this just added to the atmosphere in the beautiful pretty courtyard as we sat there having a drink, Breakfast superb nothing was too much trouble, a total little maldon gem we will definitely be back...thank you blue boar.☺️

Room was snug, couple of stains on the pillowcase, hair on the bedsheet, but was laundered, and a bit of dust in hard to clean places but it was a great stay with great service in a great location. Breakfast was ample too & cooked very well.

Lovely historic bar attached to the hotel. Colin provided a good service & the 1555 beer is delicious.

Very different experience. The room was nice, but there was no lock on the main entrance door. The area was busy with passing. The pub was very old and authentic. The main hotel was very interesting, and I believe a lot of historical inside

Nice little pub good selection of beers and spirits. Love all the taxidermy animals and fire place, gives it a real oldy feel.

a uniquely fascinating and historic pub and hotel dating back to the 1400’s - the new owners are sympathetically restoring and improving the fabric of this truly wonderful building whilst also bringing back,after a six year absence, a very welcome, albeit a pretty basic food menu - hopefully this will be expanded upon in due course. My favourite Essex pub situated in Maldon being the town of my birth - always look to visit whenever I’m back working in Essex or visiting my dad.

Lovely breakfast 😋 All the staff are so helpful and friendly ☺️

Overall, an average hotel with plenty of history. We were initially given room 21 on the top floor with plenty of steps to navigate. However, on entering the room, we noted a large wet patch on the ceiling with mould-like growth and a nice white stain on the chair. Happily, the staff on duty provided us with another room, which was meant to be the deluxe version our original booking. We had booked 3 rooms for the overnight stay. Although historically decorated, the bathroom was not cleaned particularly well. We noted a black mould-like substance in the corners of the shower and flaking paint on the coving. Although we were not aware of the church bells ringing all day and night, we had a very comfortable sleep in the bed and were oblivious to the bells chiming regularly overnight. In the dining room, there appeared a mismash of furniture and peeling paint on the walls. Not a very inviting room! The breakfast was adequate for our needs and freshly cooked and served quickly from the attentive staff. There was no room service or food offering in the evening, which we would have liked, however there are plenty of restaurants/ cafes in the high street a very short stroll away! Having watched the owner James Sinclair on Youtube over the last few years, I expected a more professional presentation from his offering. Overall, the rooms could have been better cleaned with more attention to detail.

Live Music upstairs at the Blue Boar and a nice pint... Magic This is a nice hotel and bar in the heart of Maldon. I stayed recently and it was a very enjoyable experience
