Expect to wait for a table on a Sunday as it is really very good. We recently had a family birthday meal there and they served 15 of us swiftly and without fuss. Super helpful waitress too. This is busy pub with a kids outdoor play area so expect lots of hyperactive children full of Froot Shoots racing about. Usually have a few cask ales on as well as several different draft lagers. Decent range of wines at ok prices. Not as good as the Poachers just up the bypass at Chirk for food quality, but fine for a quick meal with the family.

The Boars is a pub in the centre of Oswestry town next door to wetherspoons. It is open til 2am and…read morecan get quite busy at weekends. It is easy to find but there is limited parking outside on the street but then there is a free car park round the corner. The boars is quite popular with the younger crowd and there is a DJ at weekends. There is also a pool table in there which proves quite popular. There is an outside area to the side of the pub with plenty of tables and benches. The decor isnt that great inside and could do with a bit of a revamp as its looking a bit tired. The staff are friendly and the drinks are reasonably priced. Only downside is there are only 2 toilets so it can be a bit of a wait if you go on a busy night.

The pub itself is ok I suppose, several small bars, good selection of beer, wines and spirits, but nothing extraordinary. However, the food was absolutely disgusting. Cynical doesn't cover the abysmal quality of the food served. Over cooked veg, swimming in liquid, a slice of grey beef, two over cooked roast potatoes, a couple of mushy new potatoes, the Yorkshire was ok... But barely enough gravy to make it palatable! The kids meal was not much better, a couple of undercooked sausages, and mushy chips... At least the beans were warm. One of the worst lunches I have had the misfortune to pay for. Take my advice and keep driving, McDonalds is only a few miles north!

I had the misfortune of attending a NYE party here 07/08 and it was dreadful. The pub for a start is quite small and as you pay for tickets to attend the party they packed way too many people in. The decor is absolutely horrible, it is so run down and in desperate need of modernisation. The bar itself isnt big enough which makes getting a drink a nightmare as everyone is crowding round trying to get served. The NYE ticket included food and they put on the worst buffet ever and by the time we got near the table the food had nearly gone, they definitely did not cater for the number of people they sold tickets to. As we were in a big group we still had fun despite the surroundings and made the best of the night . I have been back since that NYE to give it the benefit of the doubt but nothing has improved, i advise you to give it a miss, or be prepared to be disappointed.

After 7pm there is security on the door and you will not be let in with trainers. A couple of people have tricked their way in by putting black socks over their trainers! But an easier way to get in is just to remember to wear shoes! Trainers are fine in the day. Inside the decor is nice and welcoming, everything is kept clean and staff are efficient at collecting glasses and cleaning tables. The food is quite nice, a bit more expensive that the other alternative pubs in the area but the surroundings are a lot nicer so its worth paying the extra. In the summer months they sometimes do barbeques outside which is a welcomed change and there are tables and chairs outside to sit in the sunshine. But beware on sunny days this bar does prove very popular and getting a seat outside can be near impossible as people tend to stay there all afternoon!
