The Mallard in Boston

Me and my husband had a lovely cream tea today ,what my husband won in a fishing competition , the sandwiches and cakes was fantastic ,excellent service from the lovely ladies ,mallard lounge very welcoming and very clean ,we had a lovely view facing the fishing lakes. .Thank you .

Thank you ladies for your really nice buffet that you did for us after the funeral last Monday we did appreciate the help and kindness shown to us at the time and your attention given to us that afternoon

Lovely spot for lunch after a walk in the nearby Westwood lakes. Clean and light inside, outside tables available in the summer. The service was a bit slow on the day. But would still recommend and return myself.

Top notch as usual. Very friendly staff. Nice atmosphere. Good range of drinks. Nice afternoon teas and cakes available.

Pit stop for a coffee and cake, lovely cafe, friendly and we'll priced. Plenty of outdoor seating which was ideal as we had our dog with us.

Lovely atmosphere, the staff are really friendly and the latte spot on .I've never had better.

Excellent loved it friendly bar staff and customers very clean and superb entertainment

brilliant, friendly staff , reasonably priced good games room the drinks options are great, and provides live sports TV

Fantastic for tea and cake after a lovely dog walk around the woods. Plenty of outdoor seating and dogs are welcome inside in the hard flooring section near the bar. Great service from lovely staff too.

Disappointed. Not heard of ‘Afternoon Tea’ meaning Stockwell tea bags and instant coffee! Sandwiches were OK. Sausage rolls were lovely. Scotch egg and pork pie standard supermarket. Scones were tasteless and ultimately inedible. Cakes OK. Looks good for the camera, but flawed by cutting corners on the essential elements of afternoon TEA!! That is, a scone that tastes of something and a nice pot of quality tea. Serve a pot of tea and real coffee. It’s not hard!

The afternoon tea was very nice. You can have either sweet or savoury. The colleagues were very nice

Part of the Westwood lakes fishing retreat. Great staff. Good location. Good prices considering the out-of-the way location. Try the afternoon tea. Lovely.

Thank you so much to the mallard for providing such alovely afternoon tea on Sunday 21st November for my daughters baby shower it's was just perfect and perfect venue xxx

spent several evenings in the mallard.nice p[ace friendly staff.well worth a visit.if you are using the westwood lodges.seems to be popular with the afternoon ladies who lunch.

Took the grandchildren for an afternoon tea treat, been a few times for a drink always been fairly relaxed atmosphere today was the first Saturday lunch time visit and not relaxing at all lots of gents making quite a bit of noise. Afternoon tea was ok the cake was very dry couldn’t eat the carrot cake and the mousse in the little pots wasn’t that pleasant. I’ve had a couple of afternoon teas here before and in my opinion they were better than today’s. Staff seemed to be dashing around all the time not stopping at all in the time we were there, table service was definitely making them work hard.

My family loved it here, they enjoyed a Afternoon tea and then had a couple of hours sampling the gins on another occasion, My wife said they were great , she had a lemon one, a strawberry one , a passion fruit one and a you mist come next time one ,,,, and the rest is history leaving me to write her update, a perfect holiday treat and a perfect wife creche while you go out fishing

Held a birthday gathering here such a lovely atmosphere the staff are very friendly nothing was to much trouble. There was around 60 of us with two ladies on the bar and they were amazing. I would definitely recommend this place if you want some where for a small party. We have in the past been for afternoon tea and enjoyed it.

Went to The Mallard for a family Birthday gathering.It’s a lovely pub set in the tranquil surroundings of Westwood Lakes.The staff were so friendly,helpful and hard working.The buffet was good value for money and plentiful.Well done The Mallard and thank you.

Park at Jenny's Wood and walk through the country park. The Mallard is next to a fishing lake. We have enjoyed coffee and a generous slice of Maxine's legendary coffee & walnut or carrot cake numerous times! A bonus is the sight of fisherman catching huge carp! Our latest visit.. we saw big a fish jumping clear of the water to catch a fly! Magic!

Only been here for a coffee and cake while walking around the local area and woods. But can say great service, very friendly staff Hot drink and cake deal for a very reasonable price Have popped in quite a few times

Awesome as ever,,,Many thanks to ALL the ladies whom work in there for looking after us virtually every night.We booked for the cheese and wine board,,and WOW,,,excellent plus lots of cheese and crackers,very tasty,,,and we also had the afternoon tea,,,,and WOW again,,so yummy it was cake heaven...Many thanks again and ill be sure to buy some parmaviolet gin now I've the taste for it.See you all again next year when we come back.THANKS LADYS xx

Popped in for a cuppa mid week whilst on dog walk , excellent cuppa in a proper tea pot , we didn’t succumb to cake but they looked great

Went with a friend was very disappointed. Choice of sandwiches very limited one person one choice two two three two choice and so Vegetarian very poor I had egg. There was no salad on the plate the girl said she had forgotten to put it on No strawberries Like in the add for , the girl said Tesco had sold out The cake were nothing to shout about On the bright side the scones were nice and the staff were very friendly and the coffee was plentyfull

Been twice in the last month for afternoon tea and was disappointed on either occasion. The sandwiches are on nice soft bread the cakes are just yummy topped of with scones and clotted cream. Unlimited tea/coffee. Lovely staff member. My new favourite place.

Great place and very convenient to our lodge.We went at a quiet period so bar wasn't full or very busy unless the anglers came in after a match.But over-all a lovely place,,staff very chatty and welcoming,,nice cakes also.A lovely convenient stop to have a cheeky drink.

Nice little place out of town that offers reasonable food and great cakes. Ideal for a relaxed sit down after a walk in the nearby woods. If you are someone who enjoys reading the paper in peace and quiet then this is a weekday treasure.

Great little place for a coffee and cake after a walk around the woods. Comfy seating, nice and quiet. Afternoon teas reasonably priced too. Evening entertainment is also good. Well worth a visit.

The Mallard is the bar on site at Westwood Lakes, the bar staff are very friendly and welcoming, a great place to meet up and make new friends talking about your days adventures.

We love to visit this place as they have the best coffee and cake. It is quite close to home so we regularly walk or ride up there. My husband also took me there last year for afternoon tea for my birthday and it was lovely. Always great service

We generally call at the Mallard for coffees and cake,which we always enjoy.,and have held a charitable event there thanks to the owner Mr Coupland.

The Mallard is relatively new and complements The Fisherman's Rest on the same site. The latter whilst very good serves meals including all-day breakfast in a less luxurious setting.

What a great place, very chilled, relaxed and friendly! Wide variety of drinks to choose from, plus yummy cakes!!

Visited with my friend for a catch up. We decided on cake and coffee and were not disappointed. The slices of cake were homemade, delicious and enormous. The weather was glorious so we sat outside with the view of the fishing lakes. The staff were polite, friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. The mallard was immaculate inside and very welcoming. Would definitely return.

Lovely atmosphere. Comfy sofas, great cake and coffee. Sit inside ,enjoy background music or afternoon tea or sit outside and watch the fishermen and wildlife.

Called in for a quick coffee..got settled nattering on the comfy sofas, x2 coffees and a piece of cake later....lovely friendly place and will defo be returning :)

This place is great to stop and have a coffee and cake. We often have a walk up here. The cakes are fantastic and when it's sunny it's lovely to sit out side on the decking but you can also sit inside.

A lovely place very clean and tidy . We booked for afternoon tea . We had to say what sandwiches we wanted when we booked. Then sandwiches were lovely lots of filling in them . The scones and cakes were not homemade but very nice . We had a lovely lunch and was not rushed at all very relaxing.

My friends booked us for an afternoon tea with prosecco and what a treat it was, the food was delicious and so was the prosecco. Lovely location and had it been a little warmer we mighy have sat outside. Will visit again next time I'm in the area.

This is an ideal place to sit and enjoy a drink with friends on a warm spring/summers evening. There is lots of wildlife to enjoy and if it gets a little nippy there is plenty of room inside to enjoy a beer or even a hot drink with cake or sandwiches. A very good addition to a very good site.

Had coffee and cake here in the Mallard Lounge and was really impressed by the Set-up there. A brand new facility ideal for weddings and parties or quite cosy weekends away in one of the log cabins with Hot tubs.

Beautiful place to relax, cheese and wine board was lovely 5 different cheeses and alsorted crackers. You also has a choice of wines. Very friendly place and really lovely staff.

How can a Place that served one of the best Sunday Lunches go to terrible in a few weeks, meat overcooked dry and horrible, veg left lying in water had gone soggy and beige. Very sad that it has gone so far downhill

Would definitely recommend The Mallard. Lovely new venue, friendly staff in nice peaceful surroundings. If there could be any addition in the future I would suggest light food so that you can enjoy lunch there although there is an on site cafe nearby and the bar does already serve delicious locally made cakes.

Me & a friend popped in for a coffee and a bit of cake - we were welcomed upon arrival and excellent service. The cakes are absolutely delicious too ! :-) Lovely atmosphere and interior is very nice. Will definitely be returning for their wine and cheese & cracker nights! Highly recommended.

I visited the Mallard Bar on Westwood lakes on the August Bank holiday Sunday. There was a BBQ on which was very nice and also live music inside. The bar and terrace was packed until about 9pm and overall it was a excellent night. I will definitely be looking out for other events they hold in the future

The Mallard is a new bar lounge on the Westwood Lakes holiday site. It offers locally baked cakes, locally made ice cream, barista coffee and tea and a fully licensed bar.
