It is the oldest establishment in Hazzard County, and is owned by Boss Hogg. It is the main social gathering place for the Duke family—cousins Bo, Luke and Daisy, and their Uncle Jesse—and their friends and adversaries. One source describes it as the place "where the Dukes unwound with a beer at the end of most episodes". Daisy is employed as a waitress at the business. In the 2007 made-for-TV movie, The Dukes of Hazzard: The Beginning, she was depicted as being conservatively-dressed until she sought a job there, adopting her trademark "sexy attire" to gain the approval of bartender Hughie Hogg.

| - The Boar's Nest is a fictional local restaurant and tavern appearing in the television series The Dukes of Hazzard and its various spinoff films and other productions, and the movie Moonrunners. It is the oldest establishment in Hazzard County, and is owned by Boss Hogg. It is the main social gathering place for the Duke family—cousins Bo, Luke and Daisy, and their Uncle Jesse—and their friends and adversaries. One source describes it as the place "where the Dukes unwound with a beer at the end of most episodes". Daisy is employed as a waitress at the business. In the 2007 made-for-TV movie, The Dukes of Hazzard: The Beginning, she was depicted as being conservatively-dressed until she sought a job there, adopting her trademark "sexy attire" to gain the approval of bartender Hughie Hogg. The establishment contains ample seating room for customers, a small kitchen and a bar. The main bar also contains a popcorn machine, a jukebox, a pinball machine, a pool table and pay telephone. There is also a small stage area, where plays, contests and performances by big-name country music stars perform, usually to settle trumped up traffic violations applied by Sheriff Rosco when they pass through his jurisdiction. One group shown performing there was The Oak Ridge Boys, twice featured on the show. Member Joe Bonsall wrote that these were "[t]wo of our most popular appearances on television". Cast member Ben Jones, who played mechanic Cooter in the series, explained: We had an occasional piece at the end of some episodes called “ Boss Hogg's Speed Trap , " a musical ending that featured Nashville stars who had been stopped in Hazzard's speed trap and had to perform at the Boar's Nest in lieu of a huge fine. Boss, who owned the joint, would make a killing when Tammy Wynette or Roy Orbison did a show at his honky-tonk. Jones noted that he suggested having James Brown appear in this way, which the cast supported. The network vetoed this, asserting that this would not appeal to the show's audience, which the cast considered an insulting reaction. In the back of the restaurant is an office where Boss Hogg conducts many of his crooked business schemes. The basement has an escape tunnel, which was used in the days when the Hogg and Duke families were involved in moonshine running and were trying to elude the authorities. Outside the business are two HoggoCo gas pumps and ample parking space. The parking lot often serves as the starting and finishing lines for various races that take place in Hazzard County. In the 1997 The Dukes of Hazzard: Reunion! movie, the original Boar's Nest had been burned down by a wedding party, and a new one was built in town. (en)

L'edificio si compone di un'ampia sala, una piccola cucina e un bar. Il bar principale contiene anche una macchina per i popcorn, un jukebox, un flipper, un tavolo da biliardo e un telefono a pagamento. C'è anche un piccolo palcoscenico, dove prendono scena spettacoli teatrali, concorsi e spettacoli di grandi artisti della musica country, di solito per sistemare le violazioni del traffico applicate dallo sceriffo Rosco P. Coltrane quando attraversano la sua giurisdizione. Nella parte posteriore del ristorante c'è un ufficio in cui Boss Hogg conduce molti dei suoi affari disonesti. Il seminterrato ha un tunnel di fuga, che è stato utilizzato nei giorni in cui le famiglie Hogg e Duke erano coinvolte nella corsa al chiaro di luna e stavano cercando di eludere le autorità. Di fronte all'attività ci sono due pompe a gas HoggoCo e un ampio parcheggio. Il parcheggio spesso funge da punto di partenza e arrivo per varie gare che si svolgono nella contea di Hazzard. Nel film del 1997, Hazzard 20 anni dopo, il Boar's Nest era stato bruciato da una festa di matrimonio, e uno nuovo era stato costruito in città. (it)
