Directed in yesterday as it was the only pub in the vicinity of Roots Hall welcoming away fans.

Friendly and attentive staff with quick service.

Uninspiring beer selection. Bombardier was the only ale. My pint was from a new barrel and perfectly drinkable. My mate's Maltsmiths IPA was on the cold side.

Reading previous comments, it's obviously been through some ups and downs so good luck to them.

Went there yesterday with some pals, friendly bunch, had a joke with the girl behind the bar, the guy behind the bar was polite too and put a nice shamrock in my Guinness, good booze, good crowd, friendly, no problems, it's not the first time I have been there either!

I have been a local for the blue boar since i turned 18 and have watched it pass through a few peoples hands and would like to say the following.

yes there has been some tough times in there but much recently it's shown a great improvemont not just to the punters but the standards of a pub. Finally something has been done about the floor which is now carpeted the beer taps are all functional and the staff there are brilliant.

anyone who says otherwise i reccomend that you take a trip down there asap.

and as for the landlady who was rude to anyone in the past no longer works there but she knew how to run a pub although did have a way with words.

Im sorry you dont seem to like the landladys low tolerance for crap from out of line customers, but as she's been running pubs for over ten years and has been very succesful in doing so, I think she knows what she's doing. As for your defamatory attack on her,she would not be as succesfull in her industry if she went around "yelling vile abuse at staff and customers" and would not have the bar packed with customers each week, which clearly speaks for itself. Finally the comment about the pool player being kicked off the team smells slightly of sour grapes to me as there are already 2 new teams I think.
