Stopped here on the way home from my son's horse show. The food was so good and the service was fast! We got the kids chicken tender meal, breaded chicken sandwhich, a horseshoe, gouda mac n cheese bites, and the giant pretzel. Our server was also great! Great place for families and highly recommend!!

I have gotten several items from here over several weeks and here is my overall experience.
Fried mushrooms - they are FANTASTIC. They are fresh lightly breaded and seasoned. Not over battered like a lot of places. You can really taste the difference. Great vegetarian option.
Boneless 2lb wings - they are really good and so different than other places in the best way. They are basically really nicely cut up thick chicken breasts lightly battered and tossed in sauce. Not processed meat or overly battered and the sauce is great. I got medium buffalo.
The buffalo chicken horse shoe is fantastic too. If you know what a shoe is it’s great. I also had the horse shoe with the pulled pork and Cole slaw it’s a specially shoe (can’t remember the name of it) that one isn’t for everyone it’s a different to say the least but ok as for and a specialty shoe. I’ve been to several restaurants in the area for shoes (Dublin pub, Corner pub Charlie Parker’s and a few others) so I can accurately say the shoes at Boars Nest are above average. The cheese is VERY good and they put it separate for take out so it doesn’t make your horseshoe soggy which is very considerate.
Overall I would recommend The Boars Nest to anyone who asked. Food is great. Staff are great.

Great local restaurant if you are ever out near Athens or in Petersburg visiting Lincoln's New Salem and want to find a burger joint that isn't fast food. Our server Cheyenne was awesome and super friendly! (Deserved a big tip!) The kids' menu is fairly priced, and they have Horseshoes, a central Illinois must-have!
The boar’s nest is a great place to eat with excellent customer service. Appetizers are good and their cheese sauce is signature to this restaurant. Thanks for the great service.
