Shame that the Boar's Nest is closing, the food really is top notch and far better than any other food available in West Hull.

I can understand the proprietors point of view though, Princes Ave is horrendous on the weekend these days tbf and certainly not a pleasant place with decent folk.

Don't understand the inverted snobbery in this thread either tbf

I have never eat at the Boars Nest but was so suprised when the owner/chef felt he needed to have a go about his location on Princes Ave in the HDM - He had a freebie advert in a local Glamour Magazine saying where the Boars Head was moving to and there was no mention about Drunkards in his reason for moving. A car ride for all you Hullites me thinks if you can find it.

Its down Scale Lane next door to Manchester Arms.

Its owned by Martin Andrews (an Aussie) who also does the cooking.

Its only small so you do usually need to book for a Friday or Saturday night. During the week you can maybe turn up and walk in but I would ring to check if they are open first because sometimes Marty only seems to open if he feels like it!

only thing putting me off is Old Town on a Saturday night

Are you Simon Rogers by any chance
