Sunday lunch is out of this world. Chef should be congratulated. This is by far the best for miles around, and I’ve tried a few! I had the beef, so tender I barely needed a knife to cut it, plenty of it too. As mentioned before, I don’t know what chef does with the gravy but I could drink it alone. The Yorkshire, fluffy and unctuous. Everything fresh, colourful and bursting with flavour. The staff and customers are friendly and warm, the atmosphere gently buzzing. We are lucky to have this in the village. Thank you, thank you, thank you. See you again soon

Moved to the area last year and saw that they had started doing food again! My partner and I visited on Sunday for a well deserved Sunday Roast and we were not disappointed. We both opted for the roast beef which was cooked to perfection. The roasts were lovely, Yorkshires crisp and whilst I’m not sure what they put in the gravy, I can tell you it was divine. For me, the portion was perfect although I would have killed for another stuffing ball (because it was so tasty) whereas my partner would have preferred a larger portion because it was such a lovely meal he didn’t want it to end! We literally have nothing negative to say about this pub ever, it’s ran by lovely people, prices are decent, atmosphere is always top tier. Thankyou for another wonderful experience at our local

Just had Sunday Lunch in the Blue Boar. They have only recently started serving food again. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals. I had roast beef which was perfectly cooked , tasted amazing and great value. The cauliflower cheese was to die for. Congratulations to the Chef and staff. A great addition to the village.

Visit to see a Friday night duo playing here. Most impressed by the atmosphere of this public house. Quiet for a Friday evening. Reasonable bar prices, not excessive to cover the free entertainment, which some pubs do! Shame, but too far away to become our local.

Brilliant place really friendly staff and locals!! Table service and covid safe. We had a problem with our bike and they let my wife wait in their really nice beer garden while I went to fetch the car. They don't serve food but the hot drinks where great and really reasonable. Must say the chap behind the bar could not have been any friendlier or more helpful. the next time we do the green wheel cycle route this will be our refreshment break.

Called in on a Saturday lunchtime on the of chance we could get some lunch. I had a Brie and Bacon Panini whilst Sam had a jacket with beans and cheese. Both were great, though they're hard to do wrong. We'll be putting it into our list of possible eateries between Peterborough and Murrow.

Very disappointing every other word was a swear Word and at the top of their voices socially unacceptable. The staff did not seem to be concerned and just allowed it to continue. While public houses are for the community for social gatherings the verbal language was not conducive to this. Definitely not for my wife or myself would not go again, would not recommend.

My gut feeling was right when we arrived at lunch and nobody was eating, I feared the food wouldn't be great and it lived up to expectations. The burger was possibly the worst I've had in 40 years, the cheapest meat in Christendom, if it was even meat. Everything about the food was cheap and poor quality. There were also feral kids running around, it was however clean and tidy with nice staff. My advice is not to stop here for food only for drinks, consider cannibalism as a better alternative. Last weekend I ate there.

My wife and stopped off here on the way to Lincoln, for a quick bite. A typical old style pub, with character. The Licencee was behind the Bar, and greeted us warmly.My wife had a Panini and I had a Ploughmans, good and reasonably priced, and more importantly filling. I was also pleased to see that they had "Hobgoblin" ale there on tap, which is from a small Brewery in Oxfordshire, and a nice bitter. I thought the best touch was when we left, the Licencee in saying goodbye said "Have a Safe Journey"

Stopped off at the blue boar on way home from work late on a Tuesday evening ,walked through the door to be greeted by a lovely young lady with a big smile behind the bar and some rather friendly regulars at the bar , ordered a beer which I have to be honest was in pristine condition and tasted delicious. The menu on offer was home cooked bar style , the usual favourites such as ham egg and chips ,pies and scampi , all seemed very well priced , I opted for the steak and ale pie with mash and peas and was not disappointed .It was even served to me by the chef in person , a fab lady named Angie who had a smile to brighten anyone’s day!!!. So often these days the village local gets slated for not trying hard enough to please everyone , but for the blue boar I believe it’s an excellent pub with quality beer ,food and staff, and I for one wouldn’t hesitate to trot off there again 😀😀😀

My friend and I popped in after a long walk and had the most amazing Sunday Lunch. I had lamb shank and she had roast beef. Both were perfectly cooked and came with beautiful crispy roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings, swede and carrot mash, cauliflower and broccoli cheese and red cabbage. Excellent value and delicious.

Visiting family in eye, my wife and decided on a drink on this pub, it's a drinkers pub quite clearly with a big screen TV. That's not the issue. We were sat at a table and noticed the entertainment being set up very close by, I said to my wife " I expect we will have to move very shortly" A bars staff approached from my left shoulder and said "you need to move" Not excuse me, or anything that was polite or words to that effect, absolutely rude, both my wife and I are military so can take all sort but they actually annoyed us, whilst leaving I had the added pleasure of a table corner being moved hit me in the hip. Pffffft. I'll wait for a response and explanation before I leave further social media reviews. This is an honest review and I am always willing to leave positive feedback when needed.

Shabby, rolls behind counter in cling film, not cooled. Loud, staff, giggling, singing and generally enjoying themselves. Could be such a nice pub in good location needs refurb and better food/customer service to bring it back on the market as a reasonable pub. Only frequented by locals does not attract outside trade.

Visited for the first time in a number of years, was pleased to no longer be overwhelmed by the smell of Toilet Duck which had been my lingering memory of last my last visit. Bar staff were friendly and attentive. The seating has also been improved and the bar area is definitely looking much fresher without detracting from the bar’s character. Reasonable drinks menu, would be nice to see some craft beer introduced, but aware bars are restricted by their supplier. Will be sure to visit again.
