Wild Boar (Slaughterhouse)

An excellent brewpub located close to the railway station in Warwick. Ten hand-pulled cask ales, five of their own brews. No thirds. A rather small front room with a L-shape bar, a cozy open fire place, clean, and well-kept. The brewery plant is located in the back, and there was a large pool room to the rear of the building. Attentive and enthusiastic barman. The great music by the Rolling Stones in the back. (Visited with Finn 02.02.2020).

Wonderful backstreet pub not far from the station. 10HPs. 5 from Slaughterhouse. A handful of kegs. Good personal service.

My favourite pub in Warwick/Leamington. I love the relaxed feel of the place and the great selection of drink available and on tap, which is changed regularly with other brewery drinks. Staff always friendly and the locals also too! Close to the railway station and where I used to work so always popped in when I can. Now I work abroad I do try and pop in whenever I am back in the UK.

Mar ’17 rating 76. Continues to be very popular with both locals and visitors alike but the beer range has become pretty fixed now and the feel of the place isn’t quite what it was. A drop of 6 points for me.
Nov ’14 rating 82. The pub is extremely popular and full on every time we visit. The beer range continues to be varied. Certainly currently our favourite pub in Warwick.
Dec ’11 rating 76. Situated a handy 2 minute walk from Warwick Railway station this Everard, Slaughterhouse link up is proving to be very popular. There are always 4 or 5 Slaughterhouse beers plus other local breweries as guests. It is a community pub away from the heart of Warwick, but worth the trip out. The food appears to be very popular, although we haven’t eaten there yet. A bit tight for seating, it’s always worth a look in the back room to see if any is available. Slaughterhouse have built a second micro brewery within the pub, it can easily be seen through the glass panels near the toilets. This is where they run their short length specials, one of which is always available in the pub.

Moderinised village inn type of establishment, aimed mainly at the food trade going by my lunchtime visit. A bit middle class for my tastes, can’t see there being many workmens’ boots in here. Their own beer is pretty good, and included a rauchbier when I visited. Decent choice of guest ales as well.

We visited here on a gloriously sunny Saturday lunchtime, Sat 6th August 2016 to be precise. As others have mentioned it is probably easiest to say that this is just behind the railyway line/station on Lakin Road which appears to be a predominantly residential area, so I guess it’s a short walk of maybe 10 minutes from the centre of town.

It’s a nice looking pub both from the outside and in and I note that it proudly announces its award winning credentials outside trumpeting that it has been Warwickshire Pub of the Year and other received regional pub awards, I am not surprised because it appears to work hard at keeping it as the customer would like.

Inside the rooms are smaller than you imagine, the main room at the front doglegs around and leads into the back garden, I noted another room that sat behind the bar and then there was the small brewery on show along a corridor as you walk along to the toilets.Its actually a bit bigger than you think and I guess its been added to/extended a couple of times over the years.

The beer choice was mainly Slaughterhouse as one would expect, but the taps on the right hand side of the bar were guests, we settled on two different Slaughterhouse beers, both absolutely fine, not particularly great in terms of bags of hops or flavour, but certainly in very good nick.

It was nice sat outside, it was mostly a few locals at this time. The American lady who served us couldn’t have been more friendly or helpful, I liked this pub, ok I think beer wise we might crave a little more hop laden beers or indeed something a little more challenging than your normal golden/bitters, but there was absolutely nothing wrong with the beers its just our tastes have changed. I would thoroughly recommend this place.

Very nice pub close to the train station. Decent selection of there own and other beers very friendly staff and a decent atmosphere. Worth a visit for the Slaughterhouse beers.

Slaughterhouse Brewery Tap. A couple of minutes from Warwick Rail Station (take the exit away from the City Centre). Range of Slaughterhouse beer plus bog standard Everards. A Dominoes game in full flow when I was there.

Place is nice, 4 taps are good, but nothing special...

Excellent, if a bit foody, brewpub. Decent service, good selection of guest ales.
