Booked at short notice, lovely roast meal and a glass or two of great red wine! Staff friendly and great atmosphere in pub.
Avoid at all costs Staff were friendly, food “ok” (not great) Our evening was ruined by the back door of pub being left open to allow customers at a function in the external marquee have access to the toilets My wife & I had to get up x5 to close the door because of an extremely cold breeze (it was 3 degrees outside) The guests outside said the pub staff had told them to leave the door open ! The barman had seated us in a corner of the dining room, rather than the bar where it was much warmer - nobody else was eating in the dining room We tried to complain about the cold & he said he’d thought our table in the corner might have been ok (so he knew the cold was a possible problem!) No gesture of goodwill was offered at any point.
Delicious food and great, attentive service. Family of five, really enjoyed our meal out.
Would have liked to have chosen my own table rather than the one allocated. Lucky with the time chosen as it became extremely busy towards the end of the meal. Friendly staff , food very good albeit a little pricey. Overall I would recommend the Swan to friends & family.
Very good service, food was good the only thing that was a bit disappointing was the loin of Haddock advertised with roast potatoes and seasonal veg. The fish was cooked nicely but the potatoes were the size of peas and about 2 spoons of seasonal veg which was hidden under the fish. Think the battered fish and chips would have been a better choice as the meal was not at all filling.
The bar staff were polite and helpful and although the pub was quiet the atmosphere was good.
Food was good wine was expensive but all pubs seem to charge a lot for wine these days bottleof wine costing about £7 shouldn't be over £26. Also a 10 per cent service charge was put on bill then I was told I could take it off if I wished. I do not like this practise so we will not be visiting this pub again.
The food and atmosphere was nice. Staff very friendly. Bye
Staff were great, food was very good, especially as it was a later roast time but still tasted fresh.
Really cosy pub/ restaurant. Staff were so friendly and helpful. Food arrived promptly, my vegetarian option was amazing.
Very enjoyable visit and meal was great with great service as well
Really lovely meal with friends. Options of smaller portions was great. The food was great and so was the atmosphere and staff. No pressure to hurry up and leave. Thanks
First visit to the Swan but it won't be the last. It was great to see more original items on the menu instead of just the pub classics, although these were available as well. The Steak Pie, according to my husband, was the best pie he has ever eaten, and he always chooses pies when we go out. I had the faggots and mash, which you do not often see on a menu these days. Again, they were great, the presentation was excellent, the chef obviously took some pride in the presentation, and the front of house team were lovely. A 10% tip was automatically added on to the bill and we were given an option to either remove or amend it but we had had a great experience and were very happy to leave the 10% tip on the bill. We will definitely be back in a few weeks time.
Great Pub, great staff, and lovely food, really nice Sunday roast.
Delicious Sunday roast, very large portions, would definitely recommend and will be back.
Was unable to have gluten free fish and chips as no GF batter. A disappointment for me. The three of us were happy with our meals but felt that main meal choices were limited. Didn't have dessert as we had to leave room for birthday cake. Staff were very nice.
Service and food were good. Sadly the the Gem was disappointing.
Staff lovely! Food delicious! We will return! Thank you all at the Swan Inn 😀
Lovely food and very good service at a good price
A fantastic Sunday lunch, very enjoyable food, the service was second to none. Will definitely be back very soon x
Staff very polite and helpful, good choice of food for gluten free and vegan. Clean plates all round.
Staff were lovely and the service was good. I was disappointed that they weren’t serving the fish board. There wasn’t much fish on the menu so I ended up with fish & chips, which I didn’t really want.
Great Sunday lunch with family. We had roast beef and it was plentiful and cooked well. Service was a bit slow but it was so busy especially in the garden as it was a lovely sunny day. We will be back.
There was only one half of a carrot and parsnips on the plate. Meat was really red made me very ill the next day . Don’t think I’ll eat there again
The pub was empty and after we ate we realised why. The food was bland and two of us were ill following the meal. The whole places needs a good clean.
Friendly, attentive staff. Quick service, food nice and the pub was cosy.
Food was great, the staff were very friendly and polite, granddaughter played in the kids playing area. Great day
We’ve just been along for Sunday lunch. It was lovely - delicious food, great selection of drinks, easy to park, great atmosphere. We will definitely be back.
Apart from my ham, egg and chips which was enjoyable, the food was not as we expected it would be. One of our party ordered gf fish and chips and this turned out to be fish without batter - that's how they do it gf - disappointing as many places manage to do gf batter. My daughter's pizza was, in fact, just two slices of pizza. We found the beer garden lacking in ambience and not somewhere that was enjoyable to sit.
Great food and Great service would highly recommend, thank you
Good Sunday roast. Longish wait but waitress apologised & kept us updated so a nice touch. Will return again.
Hot day so surprised there wasn’t a salad or lighter option for the specials menu. Another roast option seemed excessive. Roast potatoes a bit overdone. Service good
Really lovely pub staff really helpful and friendly food was amazing and ate in garden chikd friendly and dog friendly
Good food with really friendly service and a nice location
Excellent pie fantastic pint very good service little bit pricey tho
Good quality food. I would recommend the steak pie, home made, not a bought in individual pie, with chunks of lean meat, served with mash or chips and green veg. My wife had the lasagne, which was full of meat. Friendly service.
Food was great, would recommend for Sunday lunch, didn’t have a dessert but they looked good
Lovely pub, great food and reasonably priced. Lovely little play area outside too for kids.
Very friendly. Helpful explaining the special dessert offer to us
Welcoming staff and good food, not rushed. I would come again.
Beautiful Sunday roast in a great environment was able to bring the dog.
There was a problem in the kitchen and I was warned that a reduced menu would be available Items ordered were acceptable but unfortunately it took a long time to get to the table On another day there would probably be more smiley faces
Great service and friendly welcome. The only problem was that they only had a limited menu on, due to a broken extract fan. The food we had was still very nice. I would recommend and a great beer garden.
We had a lovely meal and staff very friendly. Looking forward to going again soon
Very friendly and welcoming. The food was lovely. Will visit again knowing there is an outdoor play area which looked great
The Sunday menu didn’t specify the right food items (fish and chips came with oven fries rather than triple cooked chips. Was told this was normal for a Sunday but the menu does not reflect this), food came on a old looking, battered, scratched plate (not appealing to eat off), children’s burger was very dry and bun was so stale it crumbled, portions were small compared to other times we’d visited, fish (in fish and chips) was mostly batter and skin on. Very disappointing all round. A shame when an adult main is £18!! We won’t be spending money there again.
Excellent food, friendly staff and a nice play area for the kids
It was a very busy day as the weather was glorious so lots of people out enjoying the sun and a pint. Even so the service was very good and with in no time after our order was taken good food arrived. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. All in all a very pleasant few hours was enjoyed by all
As a celiac the food at the Swan was amazing highly recommend it
Lovely food. Friendly, polite and attentive staff. Nice atmosphere too.
