About Blue Boar Inn
With Norwich's landmarks, golf courses and a good spread of pubs and restaurants all within easy reach, Blue Boar Inn on Wroxham Road makes a practical base for exploring the city. Free on-site parking takes the hassle out of arriving by car, and the location gives quick access to entertainment nearby as well as the wider Norfolk countryside.
Rooms are en-suite and include family options, with drinks available in room and free WiFi throughout. The inn itself is a large one, built around an airy bar, a conservatory restaurant and a garden with outdoor seating, where real ales and hearty pub food are served. Breakfast is available each morning, and reception operates around the clock for late arrivals or early starts.

What guests say
A local pub to me and one which could be very very good if they could secure a good chef. Currently food is only available but the various food vans they allow on site. Usually at the weekends and one food van at a time. I've been told if there isn't a food van then they do allow you to order a takeaway, but better to check than assume you can first. One very important positive is the selection of beer on tap, all main brands but still a good selection. It would be nice to see a few craft beers in the mix. The staff are always friendly, the garden is a very good size and great for kids and parking is plentiful.

A very lovely place to stay for the night. Rooms were very clean and well kept. Extra towels, shampoo and toiletries. Rooms were also well heated and comfy. Though the bed was a tad squeaky but in all, the place was money well spent. Did I mention it was quiet and serene and the little park view from the window was good for the soul. 🤓

Food was amazing! You have some talented chefs. However we could only sit outside and it did mean that our food was cold very quickly, they don't have any blankets available so keep this in mind if you have a table booked outside and the weather isn't warm. I can highly recommend the roasts, great food.

It's an ok pub, it's bigger than we thought with a conservatory extensions and a beer garden. But as people who have just moved into the area, we did feel as though we were being stared at by some other customers as "strangers." As a result, we didn't sit in the main part of the building, but chose to sit in a quieter spot. I'm sure that people are lovely,but we felt a little uncomfortable on the day we visited. Saying that, the staff were lovely and served us v quickly. And there was a good choice of ciders 🙂
