The BLT salad was great. The fish was cooked well and portion was large enough to bring home for a sandwich the next day. Hush puppies good and fresh.

Nice looking spot on the inside. Got the pulled pork BBQ sandwich with fries for the road. Would sit down at the bar next time. Huge portion for the price!

Want quiet lunch in a comfortable place with EXCELLENT bar food? A simple menu that doesn't overwhelm you but packs in unique flavors and homey classic BBQ foods that's The Salty Boar. Our Friday afternoon visit around lunch wasn't busy yet. Fantastic quick service too. The only appetizer we had was the cheddar cheese cubes with made fresh buttermilk dip that cools your mouthafter the spicy goodness of the creamy cheese with the excellent crispy spicy coating. The fried fish is crispy and fluffy not oily or soggy and spiced perfectly, fries are crispy and fluffy perfection. Another of us had the fried green tomato and pimento cheese sandwich the was on crispy not too thick Texas toast with the house voodoo sauce and beautifully tangy not sweet and the crunchiest onion rings I've found around. The last diner of our group had an absolutely juicy with crispy edges pulled pork plate with two side. One was a crispy bacon pasta salad with that incredible ranch dressing again and hamburger beans . Not your typical baked bean. Wonderful. We did take in and extra side to try the coleslaw and it rounds it out to a large portioned, delish lunch that we all took half home from those big portions. Moderately priced and worth the ride to Duquoin to pop in for lunch. On weekends they do a pork steak that definitelyakes the drive well worth it! Impeccable service and fantastic food on thewnu will definitely bring us back. I have to go try everything!

Nasty!!! Left over rotten ribs and pork steaks!!
This place was recommended to us for their food being great. Me and my husband were in the area and stopped in. The food was freaking awesome!! Great service, friendly staff, cold beers. We didn’t have to wait long for our food which we had fried fish (huge catfish filets) and probably the best baked beans I have ever had. Look forward to stopping in next time we’re in the area and trying some other items on their menu. Definitely recommend this place!!

Came for the oysters, they were terrible, waited over 2 hours for our food. Some of oysters we weren't even able to eat. Will not come back
First time going to the Salty Boar, I looked at a menu online, went for the Chopped Brisket Sandwich, which was no longer available. I decided on the ½ Pound Fried Chicken Basket (southern) comes with Duke's mayo, lettuce and dill pickle chow. The chicken was crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. The dill pickle chow was delicious. The fries were perfectly cooked and seasoned. My husband had the smoked chicken wings with the dry rub of course I had to try one of them. We both agree, these were one of the best wings we have tasted. The smokey flavor, crispy on the outside, moist and tender on the inside.Our waitress was amazing, she happily answered all of our questions, she did it with a smile. Very friendly, welcoming personality. Definitely look forward to many more visits in the future.I included in the pictures the current menu.
