Wild Boar, Warwickback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Food now limited to basic burgers and pork baps but the Slaughterhouse cask ales were again in excellent condition and there are now some keg lines which seem to have replaced the handpulls from other breweries. So not quite the hot spot of real ale it once was but still more than enough choice for most.

The Slaughterhouse beers were even better than I remembered so I didn't bother to try the other offerings (Everards Ascalon, Hobgoblin, Old Pie Factory Bitter and XT's 2 & 13). Did manage to eat the 3 course Sunday lunch which is now £16.95 - I thought the food scored 7 or 8/10 but the excellent beers result in a higher overall score. For those who are interested this is CAMRA Heart of Warwickshire Pub of the Year 2015.

This pub is a gem. The pint is the nicest you'll taste, the bar staff are friendly and the food is great value for money. All you could ever want in a pub.

Good visit, friendly and informed barman as we chatted about differing hops. Had the pacific ale and it was in good form.

A joint venture between the local Slaughterhouse brewery and Everards, there are 9 real ales available, I stuck to Slaughterhouse's own which were all in excellent condition. The only evidence of Everard's that I saw was their Tiger, I also saw a Hobson's and Wadworth's The Usual. Did not eat but picked up a menu for this weekend's Sunday lunch which includes Smoked breast of duck, roast beetroot, apple and thyme compote and dressed leaves followed by beef/pork/nut roast with roast potatoes, broccoli and cauliflower cheese, chantenay carrots, saute savoy cabbage, honey roasted parsnips and Yorkshire pudding with warm marmalade bread and butter pudding to conclude - all for �12.95! Highly recommended.
