The New Boar

Been coming here for years. Is is my 'home from home' place. Under new management ( Now The New Boar) and it shows.Rooms nice, food great. Very nicely classy redecorated. Great bar, and Mia ( bartender) is an absolute star! Will be back soon...probably week after next.

Very nice bed & furnishings, excellent restaurant with out-door space. Easy check-out. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Convenient parking. Bathroom could do with a good deep cleanse, windows need updating so they can be opened - paint was peeling.

Restaurant has been refurbished and now feels more spacious than before. Choice of three Sunday roasts; beef, chicken or lamb - each £18. From ordering to on the table was less than 10 minutes, so it must be reheated. That said, apart from a bit of unevenness in temperature, it was pretty good. Plenty of meat served with roasties, cauliflower cheese, broccoli, carrots, stuffing, pig in blanket and giant Yorkie provided, with plenty of gravy. 5 or 6 desserts to chose from.

So let me explain... I came here 3 weeks ago for the first time. I'm back for my birthday. I have no affiliation with this venue. This is a god's honest review. I rocked up early to be unexpectedly greeted by Marie and her husband who arrive at 4am to keep this place looking immaculate, and it's just that. Its spotless. She's so lovely she hugged me. You're not getting that kind of reception at the Langham! Next up, the wonderful Dee who, for the 2nd time , went way beyond necessity to accommodate myself and my partner. She is the epitome of customer service, sweetness and light personified.. I've yet to meet anyone that surpasses her in hospitality. Time for shenanigans. The mixologist of Essex...THE MAN.....Francesco. As smooth as his cocktails...I've not tasted a better one in years. The stunning Mandy is also behind the bar..so friendly..I divulged all of my secrets within 10 mins. I rinsed off her ears and she didn't bar an eyelid. A 5* hotel concierge in waiting I'm not a fan of regular pubs. But this isn't a regular pub. It's beautiful. This is the Mal Maison of Aybridge but way better. None of the ponce with all of the class and sexy ambience you might want. I wanted that for my birthday and I got it in droves. The decor is flirtatiously delicious.. the patrons divine ( shout out to Big Dave who I encountered at the bar) and incredibly, I think they are undercharging. I used to do mystery shopping and I've paid twice this price for places that don't hit the spot. It's pristine, elegant and scrumptious. The New Boar gets it right..whether your here for business or leisure. I love this place. You'd be crazy not to stay here. The food is top notch too..I ate the Gamberino with my hands because it was so delicious. Thank you all so much for making this a birthday I won't ever forget. In the words of Arnold.....I'll be back. Gimme a couple of weeks to recover. This was some kind of birthday

Work commitments meant I had to find somewhere local to Loughton for an overnight stay I found this gem of a place Room had almost everything I needed, apart from a USB socket but worked through that little issue. Clean, modern and quiet. Food in the restaurant was fantastic, tasty, plentiful, balanced and beautiful on the plate Will be returning again when the need arises Staff were lovely and pleasant and nothing was too much trouble. Keep up the great work!

Absolutely fabulous accommodation although lots of stairs. The food on offer was choice of 3 roasts, chicken,lamb,beef. They were fabulous, steak tartare was amazing, Erin mess was the best my wife ever had. Wine selection/price very good. Will I return, he’ll yes!!!. Thank you to the team at the amazingly refurbished NEW Boar
