I am in town for business and I was looking for a place to get some comfort food. The Tide and Boar was within walking distance from my hotel and it looked to fit what I wanted. I came early for dinner and was greeted warmly and seated right away. I saw the v seafood chowder on the menu and asked about it. I was told it was a meal itself and was really hearty. The server was NOT kidding. A huge bowl of chowder was brought to my table with a thick slice of bread with butter. It was absolutely filled with lobster, mussels, shrimp and more! It was so good and really hit the spot. I was really full when I left and completely satisfied!

I have dined here many times over the past decade when in Moncton for business. On my recent stop I had the pan fried haddock and chips. Crispy light and on point as usual. For dessert so had the banana pudding which was decadent and not too heavy, however creamy and banana with the duché de lèche. Service attentive and not too obtrusive. Overall a pleasant experience.

The chef here is amazing, some of the best food I've had in a long time. I will definitely stop in anytime I'm in Moncton. The flavors were well paired and everything was cooked perfectly.

The food was decent and the server nice. When asking for mayo to go with the fries we were told it's an up charge. When asking for a small amount of tartar sauce to go with the left over fish we were told it was $1.50. The server informed us that any requests outside of ketchup and vinegar is a charge as the kitchen won't allow it. Perhaps there is a better reason other than being cheap but for 50 bucks per person for 1 drink and 1 plate I expected more. I was recommended this place and the frugal approach to such low cost items has left me disappointed.

I did not have a reservation but they were able to accomodate me in the lounge downstairs. That was ok because it was cooler on a hot night They had cocktails as well as beer and it was well made I ordered the two piece fish and chips (substituted poutine for just chips) Very filling. Two large pieces of very good fish with crispy batter The tartar sauce was home made and so was the cold slaw. Excellent

Tide & Boar on Main Street is a fantastic dining spot that truly exceeded expectations. The service was outstanding, with friendly and attentive staff who made the experience enjoyable. The restaurant features a large patio, perfect for outdoor dining and soaking up the atmosphere. With several food options on the menu, there’s something for everyone, from hearty meals to lighter bites, all reasonably priced. Its prime location on Main Street makes it convenient and close to everything, ideal for travelers exploring the area. The food was delicious and well-prepared, making it a delightful place to eat while on the go. Whether you're looking for a casual meal or a more substantial dining experience, Tide & Boar delivers. It was a memorable stop on my journey, and I would definitely go back. Highly recommended for anyone in the area looking for quality food and excellent service.

Went for my daughters birthday. Ordered the Korean fried chicken, and the banana pudding for dessert will include pictures. The food was tasty the restaurant was very warm others around us were saying the say thing. Waitress was very kind and helpful! 100% would eat here again lots of menu options. I will start adding the menu pictures to my reviews going forward! Also, they do have a vegan smash burger, and we're very good about our request for no nuts due to an allergy!

I was looking forward to a wonderful evening but was very disappointed. It was obvious they had overbooked as the place was so crowded customers and servers had difficulty walking between tables as chairs were back to back. Oh fire Marshall??? We were seated shortly after 5:45, by 6:30 we asked for coffee and by the time we left at 8:30, there was still no coffee put out on the side table. Difficult to ask servers again as they were performing. We were served the main course after 8 pm, the chicken was so overcooked, I thought I had bitten into a bone. There were a number of customers at our table with this same issue. I will never again be a customer at McSweenys Company Dinner Theater in Moncton.

Cant say enough great things about this place! Food was incredible. Charcuterie platter was spectacular and probably the best burger Ive had this year. Basque cheesecake and banana pudding were incredible desserts! Staff went out of their way to help my wife who walks with a cane, using a staff elevator to help get us to the lower level for a concert. Service above and beyond!! This is my new go-to when Im in Moncton

We had brunch/lunch with a group here today and were really disappointed with the food quality. I ordered the Pub Breakfast. The poached eggs were hard as a rock, the herbed biscuit was dried out with barely any butter on it and it was supposed to come with avocado but that never appeared on three of our plates. The one person who did get avocado on their plate said it was way too hard to even consider eating. At $18 for this meal it fell extremely short. Not likely to be back again if this is the type of quality we can expect. Very disappointing.

Awesome spot! The ambience was really nice for a few drinks in the evening, but I wasnt expecting the food to be so good. Had the parmesan- crusted haddock and my hats off to the chef - it was absolutely delicious. Great beer selection, highly recommend the Robot Food IPA and the Drown in the Juice IPA.

This quaint little gastropub in the heart of Moncton served an incredible plate of seared scallops, which was paired with Uncut Hops, a hazy New England IPA that was very citrus forward without any hint of bitterness. The Boat Poutine was also great, although it did get a little greasy near the bottom. This was paired with a delicious pilsner, simply called The Pilsner.

Have been to Tide & Boar downtown countless times, love the atmosphere, food is good and their beers are excellent especially IPAs. However we came earlier today and were turned away because they wanted to check IDs?! 2 ladies (staff) at the door were asking for IDs. I was so surprised and said is it new? Cause I have been here way too many times. They said no they always check IDs and it depends on who is at the door. If it s their new rule I totally understand since they have alcohol but I do come here very often and never ever heard of ID check before. Kinda ruin a Sunday lunch for us since a friend was visiting from another country and we would have to go back home to get her passport for ID. Felt very unwelcome.

We stopped into Tide and Boar after a costco trip. This was probably the best experience we have had here. It was a beautiful day, and there was plenty of outdoor seating, so we made our way to the host. She was super friendly and told us we could have a seat anywhere that had utensils and menus. We found our way to the table. Bottles of water already there were a great touch! Our server came to our table quickly to see if we wanted any drinks and that we could look up the beers on tap from our phones. Im not really a fan of that, as not everyone brings their phones. (Im not sure if there are other options). We werent having any adult beverages, so that was fine. We knew pretty much before we got there what we wanted. My partner ordered the Boar Poutine, and I had Unami pork bites. The Boar poutine is large enough for 2 or 3 people. It has lots of meat and cheese on top. The gravy comes on the side, and they have their own homemade ketchup, which is delicious (a little kick to it). My Unami pork bites were good. But I did notice they made them a bit different. Usually, the Sriracha is drizzled on top, but this time, it was costed on the meat. I didnt really like that as much. But they were still good. There is just a little change in flavor. Our food came so quickly it was amazing. Our server was super friendly and asked our plans for the day. We loved the outdoor vibe , with the lights, smelling the smoker, lounge seats and tables. Also we seen on the chalk board there are more meats available after 4 or 5 certain days of the week off the smoker. Hopefully we can catch that next time! Cannot wait for our next visit! Parking: We had to walk a few minutes for a paid parking lot.

Came in for dinner. It was located in downtown Moncton on Main street. The restaurant was completely packed and we were lucky to get a table as we didn t have reservations. My friends ordered the chicken sandwich, burrata + tomatoes, smoked wings and I ordered the Boar Poutine. I never had Boar so I was unsure about it. All the dishes looked so delicious and the servings were huge ! I didn t like the Boar Poutine. I don t think it was anything the restaurant did, I just didn t like the taste/texture. I wish I had ordered something else because everything looked amazing. This was on me. I don t think it s fair to give a negative review simply because I didn t like a food I ve never tasted before. I hope to come back again and try something else. The staff were WONDERFUL !

This place is just lovely. Seasonal selections, long-standing menu, craft beers made in-house for a variety of preferences. I wasnt in NB for long, but I highly recommend giving it a try. Lobster roll was delicious, halibut was great, service was attentive and helpful. Our server was a young man who just had great instincts for what guests might like. Patio was nice but would use caution on hot days with no wind, as there are two large brick buildings on either side. Vegetarian options: Plenty of options for a variety of dietary restrictions.

Solid bar restaurant. Located in downtown Moncton on the main strip with street parking nearby this popular spot is a good choice for a night out or a bite with friends. They have the occasional live acts and paid events with a cover charge so check before you go. The place is small but has a sublevel with more tables and a second bar. The food is good and service is pretty quick and helpful. Wheelchair accessibility: Only the main floor is accessible and there is limited seating. You will not have access to a bathroom since they are located in the basement.

Update June 2024: Arrived on a rainy Saturday afternoon and it was packed. The young woman that greeted me was very pleasant, unfortunately the only table available was downstairs. So, the atmosphere wasnt as vibrant, but excellent wait staff and food made up for it. I had the parmesan encrusted haddock and fries, it was amazing! Also, if you like hazy IPAs you must try the Drown in the Juice IPA. A very bright citricy flavour, but not overpowering. A great summer choice. Sept 2023: One of my favorite local brew pubs. Love the local beer, always seems to be something new to try. Last time I lucked out and they had the BBQ going, and had one of the best briskets I have ever experienced. Awesome spot!

I was here for a business dinner and really enjoyed the atmosphere, a member of my party was very impressed with the song playlist. We found that the tide and boar board needs more bread and crackers. We asked for more, but only received 3 small peices of fried bread. We could have easily used 3 times that with the remaining cheeses, etc. on the board. The fried chicken sandwich was really good but I had to ask for a side of mayo as it was dry. The other person in my party agreed and wished there was more mayo on his too.

I was really hungry tonight, so I took the $7 upgrade to have a poutine side with my burger. OMG! It was laughable. My girlfriend got regular fries with her burger. My upgraded poutine was a mini, infant-sized sample that could have rested comfortably in the palm of my hand - for SEVEN EXTRA dollars! It was even placed in a stacked dish that initially made it seem like it was in a deeper bowl. I easily had about one fourth the amount of fries to satiate my big appetite. Unless you enjoy paying more to get considerably less, stay away from T&Bs premium-priced meal downgrade. Beers were tasty! Our server was great and saw humour in the above situation. Grossly overpriced add-ons aside, we had a great time.

I have not been up the east coast through Moncton for a few years before COVID so I was elated to see this local gastropub had survived the decimating affect of that crazy time. In addition, I has so pleased to hear that they have excelled in these years and moved the basement brewery outta the lower floor and into a bigger facility further into town. (NEXT TIME!!!!!) A walk on a cold and drizzly March evening was rewarded by the energy of the crowded rooms and the flavours wafting out of the kitchen. Some of THE TIDE pilsner accompanied my BOAR BOARD of delectable house-cured meats and pates. Textures and flavours unique to me and certainly enjoyable. I am only sad that my capacity for food is not what it was but i will return next time FAMISHED and gorge myself. Thanks to all for a wonderful evening.

The beer selection was tasty and varied. We shared 4 different ones and enjoyed each. The server was excellent despite the restaurant being unusually full for a Sunday night. The food was good. We tried a few things and found the pub-style options to be excellent and the more restaurant-style choices a little less so,but still good. Definitely would recommend a stop here!

Ordered one small vegan donair and the option of an extra-small poutine for a side (roughly 2 cups). It tasted ok, however I could have made it more flavourful at home. The upcharge for the poutine was 7$ and the amount of the upcharge was not advertised on the menu. 31$ total (incl. tax) for a small meal: It was more expensive than what it was worth, even at todays prices at comparable restaurants.

I havent been this pleasantly surprised and impressed with a restaurant in a long time! When we arrived it was fairly busy, but we were seated in a timely fashion. The waitress was so sweet and friendly! I was shocked when I saw a seperate menu due to vegan week! There was an app option, 3 dinner options, and a dessert option.....ALL VEGAN! Being vegan, is it especially hard when you go to restaurants!!! There is very rarely much choice. Especially with such imagination...... i got the cauliflower Buffalo wings (delicious), Donair Detroit style pizza (incredible) and the vegan lava cake. All phenomenal. Even my husband, who does not enjoy vegan pizza at all, thought it was incredible! We are from PEI, so its not exactly down the street, but I would drive this far for THAT meal anyday!! And I dont mind paying for good food!! I cannot wait to have a cold slice for breakfast! You hit this experience out of the park for us. Thank you Tide and Boar!! Well definitely be back! I recommend highly!

Stopped in Moncton and this was our first meal here. A very bustling establishment, kind service and some uniqueness on their dishes. Wife and I were quite hungry, we ordered fish and chips, chowder and a meat & cheese board. Their charcuterie board had some really fascinating pieces, each meat was delicious and cheeses fairly unique and local. They had some pickled garnishes that were very tasty when eaten together, this was certainly the high point of items on their menu. I hate to point this out and maybe its a culture thing, but unfortunately the chowder and the fish and chips were under seasoned. The fish and chips had a good texture and were perfectly flaky, but were completely bland to the point that it was almost unbearable to eat. I had to use every crevice of the tartar sauce to just get it down. The chowder was similarly under seasoned and watery, it really didnt feel like a chowder. It was probably the worst one weve had on our trip. The dishes were pretty, the space was nice, and people were enjoying themselves. It was just really unfortunate that the food was lacking.

Went for the burger fest, it was good but the burger arrived 5 minutes after we sat down which is weird. It was cold and there was almost no sauce, probably because it was premade. Our drinks came when we were almost done eating. No one came to see us the entire time and the waitress left when she dropped the bill.

The only slightly negative thing I can honestly say is that 1 of our chairs and our small table were wobbly. Our server thankfully wedged something under the bottom of the table to help the drinks stay upright. The food was awesome. Service was fantastic. We didnt wait long for our food, and it came out hot! Will be visiting again soon. Hopefully, we will get a different table.

Great experience. I was waiting to try the boar poutine. Did read a review saying it was on the blander side and would have to agree. Could have had more gravy, in my opinion. The service was great tho, wonderful pairing and knowledgeable of product available. Would come again to try other options.

Normally we really enjoy T&B thoroughly. Unfortunately we went to the T&B for NYE and it just seems that the kitchen was overwhelmed trying to feed too many people too quickly so as to facilitate the NYE celebrations. Most of the food arrived very cold and if you ordered a steak...basically uncooked. That is really more on us than T&B. But the price was exhorbitant as well. 75 bucks a head for entrees that were effectively inedible. We gotta be smarter about picking table dhotes for that many people on a crunched timeline. Live and learn. On the upside the staff worked their butts off given the situation.

Today my husband and I went to The Tide & Boar Gastropub in Moncton for the first time. We enjoyed the burger quite a bit. We both agreed it was the best Flip Fest Burger weve had and we try a lot of them every year. When we first arrived we were greeted by Mel who was amazing. She was very friendly as well as very professional. Even though she was a server, not a waitress she went way beyond in both positions. Besides being friendly as well as professional, she even brought our drinks as well as burgers to us. She also checked on us a few times to see if we needed anything. She told us she wasnt a waitress which surprised my husband and I as she was so amazing. She was one of the best servers both of us have ever had. She was smiling the whole time as well as very pleasant to talk to. We would go back for the burgers but also because she made us feel so welcome especially since it was our first time visiting. Thanks so much Mel, it was great meeting you!

I am almost reluctant to praise the Vegan Smash Burger for fear that it results in an increase in popularity that makes it difficult for me to get my hands on one. Lets start with the fries. Theyre crispy, theyre salty, theyre golden brown, theyre perfection. Then you have the burger. Id post a picture of it, but it never lasts long enough for me to get my phone out. The bun is soft yet chewy, perfect for containing the deliciousness. Then theres the cheese. I dont know what the cheese is, but if it were to require a 12 mile hike up the side of a rocky cliff in order to get the recipe, Ill be over here lacing up my hiking boots. It pairs perfectly with the mayo, which has little pieces of dill goodness mixed in. Then we get to the real star of the show. That patty. Oh boy, that patty. Its succulent, its smoky, its that day in the third grade when you go to the scholastic book fair and buy that one book that you read obsessively for the next 6 months. I am being genuine when I say that this burger was what I wanted for my birthday this year. My wife and I have had this burger half a dozen times in the past year and a half, and each bite, I hear Leonard Cohens Hallelujah. Pair this burger with a delicious, crisp, slightly spicy ginger beer. The staff are always friendly, engaging, and seem excited to be there. Its a great environment, and people always seem to be having a good time. You cannot go wrong here.

We ran into issues with our service. Nothing was on our reserved table. We continually had to ask for utensils and napkins. When they came with them they only gave us 3 napkins and 5 sets of utensils. A table of 8? A neighboring table offered some of their extras. We had food in front of us with no way to eat them for several minutes. When you ask for these types of things the waitress should ensure they bring enough the first time not to have to repeatedly have to chase down the basics of dining. I understand they may have been busy but they were giving themselves more work by not doing it right the first time. To pass these things to us and leave before we could respond, we were jaw dropped. We were not rude diners nor were we the demanding type, we kept things pretty cool, but we all felt we wont be back. They lost alot of business by not following up with our drinks or desserts. The staff were friendly but maybe over worked? Under trained?

We would visit again. Our favourite is to share the Scotch Egg between the two of us as an appetizer. What a superb dish! The Parmesan Fish, Tide & Boar salad and mini/side of boar poutine was tasty. During our second night we tried different items and were shocked by the portion size of the Korean Chicken. It is definitely shareable or you are taking uneaten portions home. A few of the lesser IBU beers were tried and enjoyed. A special thanks to the staff both nights who were very helpful, pleasant and efficient. The Red N Stormy was enjoyed too.
