"Plastic in the homemade pudding. March 2024 I took the family for Easter lunch, we had 2 roast beef and a roast lamb an Eton Mess, a fruit crumble and I had the homemade jam roly poly, this is were the issue started. In my second spoonful of the pudding I found it contained a piece of plastic which stuck in my gum, on inspection it looked like the rim of a take away container about the length of my thumb nail and 3mm wide and very sharp its a good job I did not swallow it, Heaven knows what problems that would have caused. My daughter called over a member of kitchen staff who was walking through the restaurant at the time and I showed him the contaminate, he took it and went back to the kitchen, we heard nothing more, not a word, no apology, no offer of anything, not that I would have accepted anything) the only thing was that the pudding was taken off the bill. Which I would have asked for anyway. I have worked in many kitchens in the past and cross continuation is a hygiene area that must be avoided. I have now just spent a sleepless night with a throbbing gum, It's Easter bank holiday Monday and I am now trying to find a dentist to check if any permanent damage has been done. The attitude of the Blue Boar staff, and how my complaint was handled left me with the feeling, the staff thought I had bought this plastic with me and caused this issue myself. Very poor. I shall not be going back and I advise you not to."
