The Wheatsheaf Inn in Boston

Very friendly and good was excellent. A proper pie too! Good value.

Well called in for lunch and what a lovely meal all fresh and the taste was amazing. The best I have had .I will be calling in more often it is very hard to find a place to eat well prepared food and the price is fair. Thanks for the excellent service five star plus

Empty pup when we arrived, but no seats were available we were told, I don't think our faces fitted , we were just passing through and hungry but they were very unhelpful.

lovely meal very friendly staff. will go again

I ordered a £32 T-Bone steak which came cooked perfectly but was mostly inedible poor quality meat! After receiving the meal nobody came to ask if everything was okay with our meal so I brought the issue to their attention when they came to collect the plates at the end. I said that if you had bothered to ask if everything was okay that I would have sent it back to which I got the reply (would you really) as if I was joking! No apologies or any sort of communication whatsoever not even to see if anyone wanted dessert! While my partner was paying the bill I once again mentioned how bad the piece of meat was only to be completely ignored! There didn’t seem to be any one of any sort of authority around only young inexperienced staff. There was another table that was complaining about being at their table for half an hour without even receiving a menu as well so I really was disappointed with the experience and cannot recommend at all. I include a photo of all the inedible meat which my dog really enjoyed.

The food is very good. We had the Thai green curry (pleasantly hot with a real naan and a generous serving), the mild red curry and a beef and ale pie. Dog friendly. Doombar was fine, other ales not tried. We had a long wait to be served, partly due to a long wait to get our menus and take the order. Arriving at 6:30 the food came at 7:45. No apology or explanation was offered.

The food was very nice. The portions large. It was a busy evening, but the waiting time was long. The service was poor. It's rare that I don't leave a tip.

We visited with my son and daughter in law, having just got married, the food was absolutely beautiful, true home cooked comforting food. The waitress, I didn't get her name, mid age lady, she was lovely and so welcoming, thankyou, we will be back

Good food but the wife had a cup of tea and it was not very hot

Reasonably priced food but top quality and presented well. But because of this it can get quite busy. Fortunately there's plenty of room inside and some outside seating. I think it was less than a week before our 2nd visit we had such a pleasant experience. The staff seem really proud of what they are achieving there and obviously have a good system in the kitchen (kudos to the chefs).

Food takes some time to come out to your table but it is freshly cooked so thats good 👍

Went on Wednesday night for the Steak night, ordered two Sirloin Steaks from the special board for £26.00. Sadly the two Steaks served were the worst I have ever been served anywhere. They were over 30% grissle, fat or other hard fibre which was inedible. We were not asked if everything was OK otherwise I would have complained at the table. At the end of the meal I complained to the waitress who's reply was that she would pass on our complaint to the kitchen. I didn't get a further response or asked if we wanted a dessert or anything else. Needless to say I was still charged for both Steaks without any further apology. Only good news is that my dog will enjoy the left over more than we did. We will not be returning if this is the standard of food and service.

Excellent service and food plus able to take the dog inside 🐕 happy days Went on Tuesday night and enjoyed the burger offer. Delicious pork burger, the texture of a burger but definitely pork meat in it, juicy and tender 😋

Amazing food with a brilliant meal and beer

Best place to go for special occasions. Food and service is the best.

Went for a drink asked about food unfortunately they cater for bookings and a couple of walking so no food for us so booking is a must next time

Best Sunday dinner I've had this year 😋

Lovely pub food excellent dog friendly.

I was taken there by my in laws (thank you for the meal)and it was absolutely delicious. I had a pie of the day which was beef and ale. It came with a choice of veg, chips or mash if I recall correctly. The meat melt in your mouth. Nothing complicated, just really tasty food. Lovely staff, too!

I love going here ,love the food ,the atmosphere and its value for money ,however went last night, I didn’t appear to recognize any of the staff, stood at the bar for a good 5 minutes or so when we arrived and was totally ignored by the staff (except the small one with the pony tail)as if we were invisible and they didn’t seem happy at all,I hope this is a one off Diana

Phoned up to ask what time food was being served till...told half past one. Walked 1 hour to get there with the dog and arrived just after 1pm to be told they weren't taking any more orders. The place didn't even seem that busy. Shame as we know the food served there is good but they have certainly lost our custom today and for the future! Very disappointed.

Four of us booked Sunday lunch 14/7/24 and enjoyed the 1st course which was tasty. When we asked for desserts we were told we couldn’t have any as we had used our hour and a half and table was wanted for next booking and to settle our bill and leave. Half hour delay waiting for 1st course followed by long wait after and my husband got up to ask to place dessert orders. Staff attitudes were indifferent and we just were repeatedly told no. We are all over 50 with 2 in their 70s and 80s. A shameful and disgraceful way to treat customers with no apologies given. The Wheatsheaf management need to accept this was wholly their fault and as they give hour and a half between service at a table they need to ensure the customers are served in a timely fashion to avoid this. They also need to ensure they have sufficient staff to cope with the amount of bookings taken . We left very angry after feeling we had only had half our meal through no fault of ours. There was no customer service, no apologies and no offer to waive half or all our bill as a gesture of goodwill. As it stands none of us will ever eat here again. We then stopped at Tesco and bought their finest lemon tart and a pot of cream and had a dessert at home.

Had small haddock and chips. Delicious, huge and well presented. Others had small Sunday roast beef, everyone very impressed.All meals cost only £9.95 each. All meals certainly weren't small !

Lovely cosy pub with a good range of gluten free options, both bar staff were exceptional and were happy to serve us whilst the bar was busy. I had gluten free gammon with pineapple which was spot on and I glad I didn’t order the huge option!

One female barstaff had a very poor attitude

We've been going here for years, the burgers are the best We've ever had, that being said no other meal has disappointed. From seasonal soups to tuna steaks and the mega hand cut gammon are all winners. Just one word of warning, book a week in advance...

A great pub with great food and great people. Now Edited >> Edited review reduced a star Fantastic food! But sweet to expensive. Miniture Cheescake £6.30p Mad Speak to reviewers Boss Danny Great doggies just before close

Lots start with the positive - This was our second visit after the first time we loved the food, service , whole experience end to end. I called and they were able to accommodate us within the hour which was great. Food - we ordered the steak and ale pie (Delicious!!) no complaints at all. Negatives - When we arrived a customer was being served so we waited ... not a problem. Then was our turn, 2 staff with noone to serve , chatting , no acknowledgement that we were waiting. Another customer (seemed to be a regular as knew his name) plonked his glass on the bar and he was served , spoken to , still no acknowledgement to us. We were about to walk out as we felt uncomfortable. Eventually we were asked our name and shown our table. It's a shame as we feel our money is just as important as a regular and this needs to be addressed, just to even have an acknowledgement , it wasn't busy. We may not return as feel this is unacceptable.

We had terrible service here last month. Won't be going back.. had a table for 5 for 1pm, 09/05/24 name of Epton. Our food order took ages to come to us, and after we had finished our mains we expected to be asked if we'd like desserts. Hubby went up to the bar to get some menus, to be told by bar staff we couldn't order desserts as the chef had gone! Mum was mortified as we had our cousin and her husband over from Holland and this was disappointing and disgusting behaviour. They should not have booked us for 1 if they knew they couldn't accommodate us correctly. YOU ASKED FOR THE NAME AND DATE OF BOOKING, WHICH I SUPPLIED IN THIS EDITED POST AND ALSO REALISED THAT I HAD PUT THAT THE BOOKING WAS FOR 2PM, IN FACT AS EDITED IT WAS FOR 1PM. COULD YOU TELL ME YOUR OPINION OF THIS NOW

Intimate and friendly local pub restaurant

Friendly staff great food and friendly staff and dog friendly would recommend if in the area .

Visited here on Saturday luckily we booked a table, Was fairly busy, got served by nice staff and didnt have to wait long to say they were busy. Food was fairly quick and was very tasty, The meat in the pie just fell apart in my mouth and the chips were home cooked and very chunky.. good price too. Would visit again

Has lunch with friends, very nice place. Staff kind and friendly.

Popped in on route for a spot of lunch,found it very accommodating friendly and lovely food

Just eaten at The Wheatsheaf and have say that we can not recommend enough. Even though we have a pub of our own….Was greeted by Erin and Jamie (who it turns out was the chef) and felt instantly at ease. The service at the bar and table was faultless and the food was beautifully cooked and presented. 5 stars to both mentioned…. We will be back, Neil & Chelle

a great place to visit to either just a drink or enjoy the food

This place was recommended to us When we arrived the lady at the bar looked at us ( Indian family ) and just said we are full. We looked around there was seating Just from her body language and the manner she talked to us ,it felt like we were not welcome No apology or smile

I've given 5 stars for everything due to the excellent reviews. Unfortunately we didn't eat here! We showed up at 7pm on a Thursday night and they couldn't serve us cos it was full. And it was absolutely rammed. Shame - the food looked amazing. Went 2 miles up the road to the Marsden pub and restaurant which was pretty good TBF.

Fantastic meal this evening the seafood platter was first class. Everytime I have eaten here, exemplary food. Also the staff are outstanding too. Lovely to see so busy on a Thursday evening. Keep up the great work. Thank you

Been a regular at here for over 2years and food been fantastic but unfortunately just been on steak night and found the service not very good at all and waited for over 45min and still no food arrived and when I asked all I got from management was we are busy and not even apology.

Myself and partner travel over 30 miles to eat here. One of the best food pubs around. A proper pub rather than a frilly lettuce establishment with wholesome food. I recommend booking to avoid disappointment as it can be very busy. Biggest issue? They ran out of pie one of the times I was there!!!!!

Amazing food at a great price. Will definitely be my first choice in future

Visited with my mate and his daughter. Great food - really tasty. Only advice to visitors who have the Sunday roast: don’t have breakfast! The portions are massive. Will definitely visit again.

Always been excellent whenever I've been in

The best food I've ever had in a pub - fact. Trust me when I say, it's worth a try, best around, and I've tried a few this past couple of week while away on work. Steaks from £13.95 Soup £4.95 Desserts £5 Honestly, best best quality and quantity meals around... outstanding!

Really nice cosy pub, friendly welcoming locals and staff. Burger was awesome

Went for my husbands husband's birthday with family. Lovely food and service. Would recommend this place.

Been told the roast here is bloody amazing. Sadly could only make it on a weeknight but was steak night. Looked everywhere for a menu before visit with no luck so here it is :-) Staff lovely Nice pub Plenty of parking Food was all eaten inc the Tbonesteaks Will we back one day for this roast Thank you

Proper local with decent beer and good food at very reasonable prices. No surprise that they are fully booked at weekends.

Excellent food and cheerful staff and atmosphere.

What a great place, I never wanted to go there but did last week and omg it was amazing, lovely inside and food was really good and not expensive

Great place Great food and service

Great food, friendly service. Would recommend

Steak to tough couldn't eat it but they were very good and got me fish & chips

Table of 9 ordered starters 40 minutes later bought out mains still not had starters food was cold and steaks over done and cold asked to speak to manager took a hour and asking 4 times before he arrives and he just laughed about it

We visited the Wheatsheaf Inn on Wednesday this week whilst on holiday and it was steak night and secured 2 rump steaks with all the trimmings for £22.00 for 2 the steak was excellent and the chips and trimmings well complimented the steak. We back the following night and had the haddock it was freshly amazing. We are in Boston in June and will back to the Wheatsheaf Inn.

Went for a wedding meal. They were not prepared for us, we sent flowers and table decorations to be put in the table before we arrived and they didn't have them out, they 'didn't know they had them' the food took ages to come out, they had some of the pre ordered meals but not all of them. We were very very disappointed with the service

Lovely bustling pub, great value and well cooked food and generous portion sizes.

Amazing food, children's menu is fantastic too

Food was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble and even suggestions were made when someone did not like Stilton on their steak. Very good value for money and would definitely return and recommend.

Really enjoyed our meal, very friendly and welcoming

Lovely meal, friendly staff great meals. Would highly recommend here.

Wonderful Christmas lunch for the MNA Branch on Saturday 1st.class food, & efficiently run! Lovely pub

Our daughter travelled over to us for the day , we googled a restaurant the wheatsheaf Inn bounced back at us ,it’s a place we’ve drove past countless times but never tried ???? & I have to say after the service & meal we received Monday we’ve missed out on a charming welcoming experience with an obviously talented chef We booked the table some days before , we arrived just after 12 to a very warm atmosphere inside The food was exceptional all courses, the beverages again all good & the doombar on point very well kept & the price for the three of us very reasonable indeed we will certainly return .

Had a lovely meal here with family. The inn was warm, the staff were pleasant and the food was amazing. We had heard nothing but good reports about the food and we were pleased with just how good it was. Good portions and good price too. The staff were very busy which slowed down service a bit but nothing that is worth complaining about and completely understandable. The only grumble I did have is that they had run out of sticky toffee pudding but we will definitely be going back again soon. Go and try it for a meal, you will be pleased you did

Excellent quality and good value

Good food in a busy pub. Would be nice to see more vegetarian options and there’s nothing vegan at all.

Lovely pub with great staff & food.

Good well priced food. And friendly staff

I booked a table for four people and our small dog who needs a buggy as he's old. I did explain to person on phone dog would be in a buggy. On arrival all three members of staff ignored me whilst l was waiting to tell them we were here. The table they gave us was directly behind the front door of tbe place which opened straight onto our table and dog in buggy. Not acceptable place to sit even without buggy. Lets face it who needs a door keep on opening onto your table when seated. We explained this and asked to be moved to another table please. No one was really bothered at all and when we suggested a table we were told no. One person did ask another member of staff and was told no got to sit at given table. So we politely said in that case we would leave and find somewhere else to go and spend our money. Wouldn't step foot in the place again.. Wasn't impressed at all, lack of enthusiasm or interest at all from the three staff members. We felt very unwelcome and uncomfortable after asking to please move to another table. Of which I may there were at least two. You need to educate your staff on common courtesy and communication skills.

Been recommended to us and we finally got to see for ourselves today. Beautiful place, really cosy, welcoming and clean. The staff were helpful and polite. My husband is gluten free but they have gluten free peroni and a range of dinners and desserts gluten free. I had steak, it was cooked to perfection and presentated beautifully at an amazing price! My husband had the huge gammon and again was beautifully cooked and presented amazingly with a very cheap price tag!! Best meal I've had in a good while and will definitely be back in the not so distant future and would definitely recommend 100%

Great lunchtime food, plenty of it !

We were late coming to dine for lunch after traffic jams and the very kind staff squeezed us in, the food was amazing and promptly served. A good selection of ales was on offer . Nice friendly pub it’s a yes from us we will definitely return !

First time for Sunday lunch. Recommended to us and I understand why. Beautifully cooked and presented. We will be back...

Called in 2 times on our holidays 1st time I had lambs shank 2nd time I had steak pie finished off with their chocolate pudding & icecream & what lovely meals they were tasty & filling the waitresses always have a smile on their faces 👱‍♀️👱‍♀️

All good for prices friend staff

Absolutely amazing food. Great staff and atmosphere too. Excellent home cooking, wish I lived closer.

Staying in the area and visited The Wheatsheaf twice and very was happy with the quality and price of the food Service can be slightly slow but the food is waiting for and all the staff we met were excellent as well. The large gammon steak is 2 huge pieces of gammon

Good food great staff coped well with the task of nephews birthday meal

Very friendly and accommodating staff

There are other places to eat and then there is The Wheatsheaf. Fabulous place. The only problem is getting in, booking ahead is definitely advisable.

Great Sunday meal but staff need to listen I asked for horse radish and it never turned up

Enjoyed super food for a special birthday

The food was well prepared and tasty

What a place this is first class, and the food is ace been going for a few years now. Beer is always nice, and the chef is one of the best i have come across. As you can see from the pics, it is delicious 😋 great atmosphere as well.

Second time of visiting the wheatsheaf ,the sunday roast dinner was exceptional, staff are very very good , very polite and friendly ,would definitely visit if and when we go again xx

This place was alive when we went on a Thursday night for meal I had the pie of the day was so nice partner had scampi and loved them so big and tasty, staff very friendly could not fault at all, will be going back soon

Popped in for lunch. Jacket potatoes were just right. Very cosy inside. Lovely staff

I only live 10 minutes up the road and have been meaning to try the food out for ages. I wish u had done it sooner as it was amazing. I had a sirloin steak, and It was cooked perfectly how I wanted it. My partner had a burger and looked amazing too with great presentation. Doombar on draft was a bonus for me too 😁. Very happy and will be back again soon. 😁👌🍻🍻

Can’t say too much about it as has a dog with us and wasn’t allowed inside to eat. Confined to outer garden, pleasant enough, though close to road. Non descript.

Sunday roast was absolutely superb

First visit for sons birthday and it will not be the last,food excellent and staff welcoming

Steak night is on a Wednesday and it's really good 👍 😋

Been twice is as many weeks for lunch, both times faultless and prices are reasonable. Friendly staff too!

Brilliant. You can take dogs in there. At the bar have a drink .

A delicious lunch with friendly staff

Superb! Good beer, great food, warm welcome and dog friendly... Who could ask for more! Highly recommended. 6*

Amazing food every meal 11 out of 10

Excellent food (Sunday lunch)and service, Warm welcome.

1st visit with 2 friends from Nottingham. We were very impressed with the homemade food and service, including the bowl of water for my dog. We will certainly return in the near future.
