    So happy that Wild Boar is here! The food is absolutely amazing and we have pretty much tried everything on the menu! We've never ordered anything that we didn't like. Always very fresh and quick! Service is always great and everyone on staff seems to enjoy working there and it shows. We go here probably once a week!

    We have been to Wild Boar Tavern several times now. For the most part our experiences have been positive. However tonight was the first time ordering a dessert. It left much to be desired. The Jack Fire Apple cobbler should be avoided. It seems to be a store bought pastry paired with the cinnamon apple side dish with some walnuts and a very small scope of ice cream. We asked for more ice cream considering the small amount with the dessert and were charged an additional $3 for a scoop of ice cream that was 1/4 - 1/3 a cup in size. (For comparison Bruster's is next door and will give about 3x that amount for the same price). We will definitely order their pizza again but will not be ordering dessert.

    We've been here four or five times now, love the atmosphere and space. Service is usually good. Just wish the food was better prepared. There's only been one time we've been there that the food was hot when it was delivered to the table, and then it wasn't accurate. Last time we went I told my wife that it would be the last if the food was cold again. It wasn't cold but my chicken sandwich came out and was just chicken breast tossed in sauce and put on a bun, none of the toppings or dressing that it was supposed to have.

    This restaurant is a fabulous place. The owner Jim England is a legend in the restaurant business and is always there, eager to meet and greet all the customers who come in. The food was great and we enjoyed the band as well. Love you guys at Wild Boar Tavern and look forward to seeing you again soon!!

    Easily some of the best bar food you'll ever eat. Order the mushrooms and BBQ pulled pork nachos! You could make a meal out of their appetizers, but don't because their main courses are fantastic also. Great catfish, awesome beer! Just go there! try it. You'll love it!
