We visited the Boar's Head Inn at Crowborough today (19/6/24) for a Wake following the funeral of a dear friend. We were absolutely amazed at the wonderful spread that was provided. Both hot and cold food. Well presented and attentive service. Excellent! We have visited for lunch meals on a couple of past occasions and have always been impressed by the variety and quality of the food. Thankyou.

Excellent food in this lovely pub. I had cold fish platter which consisted of loads of smoked salmon, prawn cocktail and a generous tub ov mackerel pate and salads and bread. Delicious and well presented. The menu had lots of unusual choices. Definitely worth a visit.

What do you want for a perfect family /friends roast ? Hot food ? Excellent service ? Crispy roasties ? Succulent meat. ? Perfectly cooked veg ? Yorkies that are crunchy in all the right places ? Very friendly atmosphere ? Relaxed ? Then you have found your ideal place at the Boarshead! All the staff are really friendly and Meghan is the perfect landlady.. a proper pub with superb food.. we had a good mix of roasts plus a pie and starters so food recommendations are across the board.

So disappointed! While the server was excellent the food was shockingly bad. My husband, who just about never sends anything back, sent back his prime beef because it was so gristly he just could not eat it. The menu has gotten much smaller than it used to be, and he really couldn't find anything else that appealed, so he ordered a soup, and that was not good either. I ordered a risotto and it was dry, lacking in flavor, and I've made a better one at home. I didn't send it back as I did not want to further spoil the evening. I've had nice meals here in the past, but this was a complete dud. I hope it's just one bad night, but I won't be returning any time soon.

So my family and I went out for a meal and it started off lovely the food was good the service was a little rocky and other tables around us was having problems with their service but we didn’t think anything of it. We carried on with our meal. We finished with our meal and had to go ask for the bill as we had been left for some time. when we received it we was working it out between us and it wasn’t adding up so we went and asked the waitress if there was a service charge on the bill and she said there wasn’t any hidden service but it still didn’t add up for what we had ordered. We paid and left. My husband forgot the car keys on the table so had to go back inside and the waitress was complaining to other customers about a tip and saying how we paid to the penny on a nearly £200 pound bill and was expecting a tip. I find this outrageous from a company considering tips are not expected and it’s a choice on service overall. If you depend on tips then apply a service charge to the bill.

I have been here a few times and it has always been good. This visit was no exception. I took my daughter and her dog for lunch about 2 o'clock. Firstly everyone in the bar was so and were talking to us from the start and on and off. Mainly I think because of our dog a 2 yr old schnauzer very friendly and cute. All the staff were very attentive and professional and the food was superb. Low/Medium priced and excellent value. Definitely recommend.

lovely. relatively 'new' owners are fab. they are on the ball and welcoming and smiley (A smile goes a long way in my book) - it is a proper pub so there will be men propping up the bar (hurrah) and it is very much 'take us as you find us' but for me that beats all the sterile pubs that are around these days. gorgeous inglenook fireplace, dogs and cats welcome, good proper pub food and tasty too. If you want a decent filling meal on a cold day with a pretty atmosphere of a snuggly pub then you cannot choose better. We had a wake here and the buffet was HUGE - so much food and the staff were perfect. There were a LOT of us and the locals welcomed us with open arms and even helped one of our older relatives with his car! GOOD pub. Well done.

Located on the A26 just outside Crowborough towards Tunbridge Wells. Boar's head Inn is one of the outstanding Pubs in the area with a very nice ambient, friendly, and efficent staff. The place have many tables,and chairs inside as well as a very large garden area to be ysed during summer days. The food was of an excellent quality with a varity of choices. Boar's head is a good value for money.

Wow what a truly wonderful place, from the time we stepped through the door until we left we were treated like stars. Perfect seating for a family meal, and oh my what a meal, everyone on the table couldn't stop saying how amazing all the dishes were. I had macaroni cheese and salad, definitely the best mac n cheese i have eaten. But i did also like the look of the burgers the pies and the fish and chips. Perfect place.

Booked a table for 10 family members to have a catch up at lunchtime . When we arrived were shown to a lovely room set up for us with views over the countryside. Waitress took drinks order which was promptly served and food order taken. We all had something different so quite a lot to write down. ! Food arrived all together piping hot, presented very well, generous portions and everything was perfect. The silence that followed was a testament to how much we were enjoying food rather than talking 😂. Some of us had a dessert which again arrived promptly and was equally delicious. Definitely recommend this place for it friendly staff, outstanding food and perfect for a larger than normal gathering. Thank you Boars Head for making it such a memorable day for all of my family

I’m a fairly regular visitor to this pub and have always been impressed with both the selection of drinks available and food options. It’s a very old pub and has the typical low beam ceilings and open fires which is cosy in the Autumn/winter months and the staff are always very courteous and polite. Megan & Guy who own the pub are a great team and work extremely hard to make the pub what it is. Dog friendly which is always nice and the ale’s are well kept. Parking is a plenty and finding it is pretty easy too. 5* establishment

Staying just a 10 minute walk away, this pub turned out to be a little gem. Local people and staff friendly and welcoming and the food is excellent. Sunday lunch was delicious and the afternoon was spent in the pub garden looking at the views across the countryside. My husband, who is very fussy, loved the steak and ale pie..the best he’s ever had apparently, and it’s a lovely place to sit and watch the sun go down. Good value and well worth a visit. Very dog friendly and relaxed.

Lovely friendly staff but hugely disappointed by the food. 1970s Fayre, overpriced. Pavlova dessert was scandalously bad (packet rock meringue). Sludgy Scampi with micro peas. Same price level as Neville or huntsman but not in the same league. Sorry to say this, but we'd so love this to be a great local pub.

My wife & I were going to a different pub and went past it so ended up at the Boar's Head. Really glad we did. A delightful old pub with beams and fires with a modern restaurant area - nice & bright with good countryside views. The food was very good - the bruschetta & salad starter was fresh & had a wonderful dressing - my wife wanted to change her mind & have that has her main but still really enjoyed her lamb shank from the specials board. I decided to go all vegetarian & went for the cashew nut paella which was very nice & surprisingly filling. Would have liked to go back for the Wednesday steak night but it is a little late for us as it is between 7 & 9pm.

There is a great beer garden but unfortunately the weather was really bad the day we visited.The staff are lovely here. We had a nice table. The food was amazing. I had the salmon which was outstanding and the hollandaise sauce was the best I’ve had.We will return.

My daughter and I visited this pub Easter weekend for late lunch. We had decided to go to another and had driven past this one but stopped on the 60mph bit of the A26 and turned round to check it out. I have lived quite near this pub for 7 years but never visited. What a mistake that was. The views from the garden are great and the staff were friendly and helpful. I am not sure but believe there has been a change in ownership but whatever the case they have really got it sorted. Really good food with reasonable prices and brilliant service. My daughter had the Hunters Chicken which is usually a chain staple. The Boars Head does not belong to any chain and the food was super. I had the Ploughmans which was also good. We/I will be visiting again soon for sure. Leaving the carpark we turned left to see where it went and found an organic farm shop which was another suprise.

We visited this pub a few years ago and were made to feel quite unwelcome. It was almost a case of "you can't sit there, that's the colonel's chair". Fast forward to 2019. The pub has new management and the change is remarkable. We visited this evening for dinner. We received a warm welcome and were escorted to our table in the very pleasant restaurant. The food was very good, the service was good and very attentive. They also offer a good range for vegetarians and vegans. The bar was absolutely heaving and it is now a very popular meeting place - for a meal or just for a drink. Note to management: please serve a really good lager - like Asahi or Peroni and your pub will be just perfect!

We haven't been to this pub for a long time, as on our last visits it was as though someone had been round with the atmosphere hoover. It was also pretty cliquey and the food was bland and predictable. As it changed hands a few months ago we thought we'd give it a try. We went for lunch on a Monday, half expecting to be the only ones there, but were surprised how busy it was. For the first time we felt welcome in there, and the atmosphere was much better than when we'd been previously. The service was good, as was the menu of typical, unptretentious pub food, with additional daily specials, reasonably priced. The portions were good, (too much for me), as was the quality, but remember it's pub food. So don't go expecting rare fillet of unicorn, served with a jus of mermaid's tears!It's a nice traditional pub, oak beams and log fire, and it's good that it's been given a new lease of life.

Met up with friends recently at this pub/ restaurant, had a great meal in convivial surroundings. There were 10 of us eating, so meal was slightly delayed, but we were not disappointed. Good sized portions , delicious choice of desserts , reasonable priced. What's not to like . Only criticism, there were very large tropical fish in tanks on display, I felt they rather put one off ....perhaps they should be in the landlords / landladies private quarters ....just a wee criticism. Food was great . Recommend booking beforehand , place was packed, midweek.

Nothing left on anyone’s plate. Great job to whoever has turned this place around. Book in advance as it will get popular.

Last minute decision to eat out with visiting in laws and our 18 year old son - challenge was to find somewhere that would suit all three generations. Took a chance on Boars Head after reading here that it was under new management. So glad we did as we had a great experience. Staff were really friendly and happy to talk us through food and drink options. Food was excellent and good value - i had the steak and ale pie with chips and it was bang on. Great chips, lovely pastry and succulent beef in lovely rich sauce - a new favourite. So glad we decided to go back after a gap of a couple of years - the new team deserve great credit and we'll be back again soon.

We have not been here for four years, after the last experience. However, the new owners have, in my view, turned the place around. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was very good indeed. This is a mid-price pub with really good home-cooked food. I had a lasagne; it was hot, tasty and there was plenty of it. We were a party of four for lunch and all enjoyed the experience. We will certainly be back.

Went on a Sunday in October- rang ahead to find it was fully booked inside but as a nice day we sat outside and were able to order food- the only exception being as they were fully booked they could do the roast - this suited us as we were looking for a non Sunday roast lunch. The menu on a Sunday apart from roasts offers a really good choice including sandwiches which are usually not available in a number of pubs on a Sunday. The staff very very helpful and food was served promptly which was impressive as the pub was busy. The chips that came with the food we ordered were some of the best - we all agreed for our next visit we would all choose dishes that came with chips.

We all enjoyed our meal, although it was rather hot for eating much and there were good helpings served. I then came again one evening for dinner with friends. It was a beautiful evening and we watched the sun go down whilst enjoying a lovely dinner and drink. The fish and chips were excellent, my friends had a very nice lamb shank each.

The menu was excellent giving us a number of choices for my father-in-law who no longer eats steak! He polished off 2eggs, a slab of beautiful ham and a good portion of chips. My wife and I had the line caught plaice and whitebait, both excellent with the plaice clearly cooked by someone who knew what they were doing. This has the makings of an excellent pub and we can't wait to visit again and try other items from the menu. Oh .......

The afternoon was brilliantly sunny and the many outdoor tables and seats soon filled after we arrived. The bar area itself is cozy and there is lots of dining area through this establishment.

Two friends and I visited for a preChristmas lunch priced at over £20. It was a Monday and there was a smattering of snow in Uckfield where we live. We phoned to ask the position in Crowborough which is notorious for its Arctic conditions and were told it was 'ok, and only one party of 5 had cancelled. We arrived to a rather disultory atmosphere and found we were the only ones booked in! Other tables were not even set. The first course, for me, was OK; mushrooms in garlic, run of the mill, not much effort there, But the main course, roast turkey was served on cold plates (as were my companions). I asked for it to be heated. Oh, it was, a little but on the same cold plate. The vegetables were terrible. The sprouts were white with a tinge of green, obviously yesterdays, the other undescribable veg were all diced and reheated and uneatable.I had cheese to follow while my companions had, I am not sure what, and they tried to fob me off with a hard cheese containing a lot of chilli which they had the grace to say wasn't popular the day before. So again, left over? How they had the cheek to even charge £5 for that mean beats me. We paid because we agreed to and that the honest thing to do. The manageress was friendly and that mitigated matters and so she got away with not experiencing our wrath. The whole affair was inexusable and we were taken for idiots. I will not recommend this place to anyone. PS They even demanded a £5 deposit before we could even book!

On entering the pub I was told I could bring my dog in as long as it was well behaved. I was not told I had to stay in the bar area.I was then served a bottle of sparkling water which I was not told that it was not cold.I ordered the goats cheese tart, I asked if they were thick chips and was told they were. In fact the chips served with the scampy were not thick steak chips but medium chips.Therefore I had a square of puff pastry with a massive bland salad for £10.65On exiting the pub I was told that I shouldn’t have taken my dog into the dining room as I would get them into trouble and she should have stayed in the bar !!On the drive home I bought something to eat as I was still hungryIt’s no wonder these pubs don’t survive

We were there to celebrate a family birthday and could not have found anywhere more accommodating and with such great food. Because we were quite a large group and an age range of 5 to 75 years, we all pre-ordered and that was good for them and us. We were made very welcome and given the conservatory to ourselves, also given a free hand to put up a few balloons and decorations. Everyone enjoyed their food and we were all served each course at the same time which meant we were all at the same place. We could not have wished for anything better, we had a perfect lunch/afternoon.

We had a lovely meal where nothing was too much trouble. As we were a group of 13 we had pre ordered our food, and Jill and Gordon were very flexible with the menu making sure there was plenty of choice for the adults and the children. They gave us reign on the conservatory so we could decorate it and make it really special. Thank you very much.

Me encanta este lugar. Un excelente pub. Lo describiría como un pub como es sin máquinas de frutas, teléfono móvil suene o niños gritones en el bar. El restaurante es muy amable, la comida es para niños y el chef local es un amor. Asegúrate de probar su fudge. Jill La casera es un atento anfitrión y Gordon, siempre tiene una sonrisa y saludo para los huéspedes. Hay algún concurso noche y noches gastronómicas especializadas. Asistimos a la noche italiana, era divertido y agradable y la gente no eran cliquish. Pruébalo y te enamorarás de.

The Boars Head near Crowborough was accommodating travellers a long time before there was a Crowborough.I have lived in the area over 60 years and never eaten there. Having had a few disappointments with the parents locally lately, I took a gamble on their 65th wedding anniversary. Landlord was very friendly on booking by phone. On arrival, the lady in charge was filling every role with the aid of a lady chef. She's a bit frosty at first but soon melts. I got a dog like that. We were amazed. The pub has umpteen different rooms, nooks and crannies and a warm large open fire. I reckon they could seat 100 or close to it.The menu isn't extensive and you need to go to the bar to order. It was lunch and the landlady says that they get very busy in the evening. Food was excellent and service good. I will be going again.On Friday.Also, it was extremely good value.

Nos dejó en mitad de la semana para una comida.La señora de detrás de la barra era muy amable y el antiguo bar bajo techo tiene un carácter estupendo.Nos pidieron que sentarse en el comedor de estilo invernadero, que es una mayoría que no mantenga el mismo ambiente como el bar, pero tiene unas vistas impresionantes.El servicio era un poco lento, pero nada de que quejarse, tienes que pedir tu propia comida en una estación entre el bar y zona de comedor.La comida en sí tomó una feria en llegar, que generalmente es una buena señal que significa su estado fresco. Como toda la comida estaba bien, tres de nosotros pedimos bife medio raro. Recibí un gran filete de cadera mientras otros dos dieron cortes diferentes que no estaban en ningún tan bueno. No estoy seguro de si había algún problema con el sistema extractor ese día en particular, pero había una muy fuerte olor de Freidoras . En el comedor hasta el punto de nuestra ropa olía como habíamos sido cocina una vez a casa.En general, es un bonito pub acogedor local, pero en mi opinión con un toque aquí y allí podría ser mucho más.

Visitamos el miércoles almuerzo (comida que se sirve de 12 a 2 pm).Leña abierta, fuego, antiguas vigas de madera que sustentan el techo (ver su cabeza!Un montón de espacio,) con una zona separada de la comida, el servicio, aunque puede sentarse en el área de comida y aún tienen su comida trajo a usted allí.Subes a pedir su comida, con una buena selección de platos, todos se muestran en pizarras. Comidas llegamos después c 30 minutos, buenas porciones de tamaño y genuinamente recién cocinado. Encantador!

Me doy cuenta de que no es temporada alta y el martes no es el peor día de la semana, pero para un recién llegado a esta zona propensa a escapar del agitado un 26, era justo lo que el doctor habría pedido. Buena cerveza, buena comida a un precio razonable y una encantadora vista al jardín de la habitación - ¿qué más se puede pedir?Sin embargo, recordar la edad de este año 1.913 y estar preparados para cambios sutiles en la planta, especialmente si no se restringe su ingesta de alcohol.

Delicioso y evocador del siglo 17 th pub y muy acogedor. Nos reunimos con amigos y compañeros cada dos meses o así para comer y para asegurarse de que no hay problemas siempre reservar una mesa con antelación. Todos pensamos que la comida era muy buena al borde de excelente, bien de precio y todo el personal muy amable. Este fue el primer almuerzo en el jabalí, pero volveremos.

La segunda vez que hemos visitado aquí y aunque el propietario es muy agradable y cervezas son geniales, hay mucho que se puede decir de la anfitriona del restaurante.En la primera visita, nos dieron la sensación de que no nos dieron la bienvenida después de que nos dijeron que teníamos que esperar 45 minutos, no había cenas asado a la izquierda (a la 1:30 p.m. en la tarde! ) y que "era mejor reservar".A nuestra segunda visita, la anfitriona fue aún más brusca; indicando que la comida a las 2 de la tarde y terminado" de todos modos, estaban llenos". Y? . . . . . .Pasó con un cortés, Lo siento, pero concluimos que sirve comida a las 2 de la tarde? ?No volveremos por tercera vez, prefiero gastar nuestro dinero en otro lugar.

Ate here again recently and the food and service were as good as ever. The chef has a good understanding of the dietary needs of a coeliac and is always very clear about which dishes are gluten free or could be made gluten free. The food is cooked to order.steak night on a Wednesday evening is very good value at £9.95 too good range of dishes available.

En mi segunda visita, Jill, la casera, me saludó por mi nombre.

Cuando reserve una mesa en un restaurante que creo que vas a tener servicio de mesa. Habíamos estado sentados durante un buen 10 minutos a su llegada cuando uno de nuestro grupo fuimos a preguntar cómo podríamos conseguir algunas bebidas; la respuesta fue que debemos ir al bar. Uno fue hecho luego tuvimos el desafío de no menús, en vez de una pizarra en un área separada del restaurante. Tener dos miembros ancianos del partido significaba que teníamos que fotografiar la junta para ellos a elegir sus alimentos. Entonces nos dimos cuenta de que la comida es del "ordenados" Así nos empelado ir de nuevo, y luego descubrir que el efectivo o tarjeta se requiere en el momento de ordenar. Más de barbacoas y fro-ing. Bastante una larga espera para nuestra comida, que nos llevó a ser una buena señal, ya que estaba de suerte, siendo recién preparada, pero para ser honesto la hamburguesa que 2 de nosotros esperamos con gran anticipación para era bastante aburrido. Todo el mundo luego de terminar su bebida a mitad de camino a través de su comida, y nos preguntó si podríamos tener reemplazos que trajeron a la mesa... eran, aunque bastante mala gana, nos sentimos. En general, no la experiencia relajante que esperábamos.

This pub is pleasant enough. It has a good selection of ales and ciders and serves home-cooked food, with variable success. The menu is not extensive and is okay, but not special or particularly good from a culinary viewpoint.

Vine aquí para almorzar con un amigo después de una larga ausencia. Tenía una buena cerveza local, y el risotto estaba verdaderamente casera y encantador! A un precio razonable, nos lo pasamos muy bien. No muy concurrido, pero había extensas obras de carretera de afuera, con plagado de diversiones. La encantadora zona exterior con vistas rurales lejanas, o la capacidad interior es acogedor. Sin duda volveremos de nuevo.

Buena comida caliente y abundante. El desierto era excelente, con opciones que van desde budín de arroz en aparecer y blackberry crumble. Es un negocio administrado por una familia y es muy acogedor.

Llegué aquí con mi familia. Y dos niños pequeños 5 y 7, aparcamos en el aparcamiento fácil y entramos en el restaurante, que por fuera parece muy bonito! Los amantes del teléfono móvil ten en cuenta si capturado con una there is a £1 cargo que va en una caja de la caridad, que creo que es un poco ridículo. De todos modos, no eran realmente muy bienvenida cuando entramos en luego caminamos a través de las pequeñas habitaciones para encontrar una camarera detrás de un mostrador y nos dieron la impresión a pedido y luego! Ella no llevarnos a nuestra mesa sólo me dijeron que es la vuelta de la esquina, así que después de que nos pedimos, tuvimos que volver a el bar para conseguir una ronda de bebidas eran amables el personal del bar! Finalmente después de un tiempo esperar la comida llegamos. Mi hermana tenía un "casero carne Burger" que era insípido y parecía uno de los chefs tenía sólo lo tiró en una sartén, una pequeña porción de patatas fritas y un montón de ensalada, nos sentimos como mucho timen, que sería un poco decepcionado si me sirve la hamburguesa en McDonald's no demasiado caro en mal estado en este lugar!El pollo en mi ciabatta tenía bien pasado es mejor. La única cosa que estaba bien era la salchicha para niños y patatas fritas. La camarera era muy sorprendido de que esta £9.95 "hamburguesa casera de carne" estaba bajo nivel y otra cosa ni siquiera preguntar si nos había terminado a los platos. Pedimos hablar con el gerente y se ordenan un poco de dinero de la cuenta, en general una comida malísima snob del personal y mi consejo dieron a otro pub cerca puede llegar a menos repetía comida allí!!
