Reopening 9th September after a refurbishment

Hi everyone

The pub is undergoing a well-earned refurbishment over the next few weeks, and we'll be back open on Wednesday 9th September. Join our mailing list and follow us on socials to keep up to date on the progress and our plans for reopening.

We look forward to welcoming you all back soon.

Welcome to the Blue Boar

Overlooking the market square in the historic town of Witney, The Blue Boar is a sensitively restored 17th-century Cotswold coaching inn, freshly renovated and better than ever. The building has been painstakingly brought back to life, with original features sitting comfortably alongside a fresh, contemporary look that does justice to a pub with this much history behind it.

Open daily from 7am for breakfast, and from noon for the full daily menu, the kitchen is headed up by Head Chef Andy and his team, cooking freshly prepared dishes from the grill and wood-fired oven, from hand-crafted pizzas to seasonal pub favourites, alongside a strong selection of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options. The Sunday roast is well worth planning a trip for.

The bar is stocked with craft beers, real ales, wines, cocktails and spirits, and when the weather plays ball, the courtyard is one of the better spots in Witney to sit with a drink or a bite to eat.

For private events, the newly refurbished Bosworth Suite can accommodate up to 40 guests for a sit-down meal or 75 standing, and is well suited to everything from birthday celebrations to corporate meetings. Talk to Curtis and the team about what you have in mind.

For an overnight stay, our 20 individually designed boutique rooms have been fully refurbished to offer a comfortable, characterful base - whether you're visiting Witney or using us as a jumping-off point for the Cotswolds.

Acorn Pubs

Acorn pubs are a collection of 9 pubs, 5 of which offer bedrooms, which sit primarily in the home counties. We could be described as ‘modern pubs’, with an extensive range of draft beers, wines and cocktails with a great menu of freshly cooked Mediterranean-inspired food, which centres around our wood-fired ovens and charcoal grills, using traditional cooking techniques and sustainably sourced produce.

Our buildings range from modern to historic, all rejuvenated into contemporary spaces that fit the needs of the communities they serve.

Whether our customers are catching up with friends over drinks, treating the family to Sunday roast in our restaurant, or escaping for a couple of nights to one of our hotels, we pride ourselves on offering the perfect, quality environment to suit, and warm, friendly hospitality.
