Always had great real ales. However, the food from the new tenant is nowhere near as good as before ( real home made pies, great home roasted ham, REAL chips etc.). Main problem is frozen chips, ruins every decent meal, just laziness. Good outdoor area at the back.

Food was tasty, staff friendly & helpful that there is a big car park to the rear. I met some friends here for lunch which was my first venture in since the change of ownership. Still a very good pub serving simple but delicious food. I was saddened by the fact the pie selection for which the pub had become quite famous had not remained on the lunch menu. The gammon & chips was rather good tho by way of compensation.

Another excellent visit to this fine, traditional pub. We had the ÂŁ10 lunch offer, a meal and a pint. The portions in this offer are not huge but for the price what would you expect. For us it was perfect for a light lunch. There is always the full menu for those with bigger appetites. The food was excellent and the beer (Wainright) lovely. They are short staffed, there is notice saying they require more staff but the single girl on duty kept everyone happy. Well done! We will be back.

Lunch menu states âLunch and a drink for ÂŁ10â then âdrinks includeâŠ,âŠ,John Smiths, selected cask ale,..etc.â We asked which cask ale, young server replied âonly John Smithsâ (keg not cask), I showed her the menu so she rang the landlord who said it was an error in the menu. I tried again but no joy so we asked if Guinness was included, told it was so ordered it, then told it wasnât. Landlord eventually appeared but we were ignored. He should know you have to honour what you advertise. Food arrived. It was mediocre. Toilets were dirty. They had definitely not been cleaned recently. We were there just after opening so no excuse there. Last visit.

We spent New Year's eve having a wonderful time in the Boar's Head. Thanks to Simon and Lauren and all the staff for making it a great night. The pub was full but not overly crowded due to tickets (free) being required. The complimentary beef sandwiches and fizz were a lovely touch and the whole night was a fantastic experience. See you all again soon. Johnny and Carol.

Great atmosphere, lots of families meeting to celebrate the festive season. Christmas menu was very poor quality. 95% of the plate was frozen - frozen parsnips and roast potatoes (both of which hard in the centre and inedible) and all either frozen or tinned veg, again hard and with that freezer burn taste. For ÂŁ24.95 for two courses this is extremely poor value. Mentioned to our overly awkward waitress who dismissed it with âwill pass it on to the chefâ. No one checked on us during the main meal other than when clearing half eaten plates. Great for a drink and a pitstop, avoid for food.

Landlady find it amusing to speak vile language while children still sat at the bar at ten pm speaking about popping candy blow jobs is disgusting to the customers thinks all the women fancy her fiancĂ© now husband the prices get changed each time for drinks each time she serves the floors filfthy at the bar have very little entertainment on yet is only interested in the locals who fill her till up and then slates them and repeats about everyoneâs problems maybe needs to re-evaluate her own bad language an distasteful information she tells when speaking about her private life at the bar food is atrocious over charged an they use smash in a tin to justify cost of living crisis What a nasty place this is ! Dogs are allowed in yet if one soils on the carpet they get kicked out an theses are regular customers well was !

Excellent home made food and extremely well kept cask beer. The pies are superb! Quite small, so it's worth booking, but well worth visiting. Also close to the Macclesfield canal and Middlewood way foot path and easy access to Lyme Park (on foot), so a good centre for walks. Changed hands now (Gordon of the pies no longer the landlord). I believe it has gone more up market, but haven't been since.

We love having the Boars just a short walk away from ours. Itâs a friendly pub and Krysy, and all the team are super welcoming. Weâve lived near the pub for two years and visit frequently and have never had a bad meal and the food is fresh and full of flavour. The pub had great indoor and outdoor space so if youâre looking for a post walk pint or an evening meal youâre well catered for. So, if you're after great food, a chilled atmosphere, with friendly regulars and a place that's as dog-friendly as it gets this is your type of pub.

Superb visit today for the Sunday Roast. The roast itself was excellent, very tasty, well cooked and a good size Good service from the pleasant staff both behind the bar and the girls serving the meals. The Boarâs Head is a traditional style pub with seating in a âUâ shape around a two sided well stocked bar. Large pleasant beer garden to the rear with some seating undercover and ample parking spaces available with more parking available outside on the road. The pub attracts a large number of hikers due to its position close to the canal and middlewood way and is dog friendly. Very enjoyable.

It's a nice stop about half way along the Middlewood Way, the staff were friendly and the pub is very nice with a load of good beers. However, the Sunday roast was awful. The beef was dried and chewy, the roast potatoes were hardened pucks of dried potato, the mash was heavily seasoned with pepper and the Yorkshire pudding and stuffing were shop bought. It was all topped off with way too much gravy. While it was a healthy portion, the poor quality made it poor value for money at ÂŁ14.95. I'd go back to the pub for a drink, but I wouldn't order food there again unless it improves.

A nice pub just off the Middlewood Way. Decent beer garden (beer carpark) at the back. Not the cheapest prices, but nothing else nearby, so that's understandable. The food was ok. The chicken schnitzel was really juicy, but a little on the bland side. The chicken caesar salad could do with a bit more love, presentation wise.

After walking along Middlewood Way we decided to try the Boars Head. Glad we did , the food was excellent although was very busy so had to wait an hour but worth the wait.

Enjoyed a couple of drinks and watched in admiration at the 2 young bar maids as they both worked tirelessly and professionally during a very very busy lunch time service. Well worth a visit.. Thank you !!

Really nice local pub, good amount of seating and decent outside seating. Staff were really friendly and welcoming. We stopped in for some food after walking with the dog so we sat outside. The pub is dog friendly which is nice. It lost a star for me because the food took 30 minutes to arrive. The food is average, nothing amazing but nothing terrible, we got two burgers and I'm pretty sure the burgers were frozen. I was craving a juicy burger and it was a bit of a let down, kinda bland, a bit dry and just alright. Overall it was fine and we ate it but I don't think it's anything to write home about. It wasn't bad enough that I would have complained but also not rushing to go back ÂŁ10.50 for two ciders, bit expensive but not horrific.

Boar off... We ordered lobster mac n cheese and then they gave us mac n cheese with a load of small prawns, was the amount of prawns to make up for the none existent lobster written on the menu? They're marketing the dish with use of the L word when all you get is prawns. Also there was no homemade tartare sauce with my food as written on the menu and they gave us no salt.
