Swan

Went for a Sunday roast which was communicated to us that they had run out of roast. Waited 20 minutes for a drink to have the entire 2 litres of beer and other fizzy drinks spilt into my wife’s lap, all over my phone and other bits. Now, it is normal for accidents to happen and the waitress serving us was most apologetic but to not have anyone from management come over to us was not good at all. Not a word not a mention. Then to have to wait for replacement drinks, be told that everything including burgers was sold out is just not good enough service in general was sub par.

Our first time to this pub I am very reluctant to have sunday lunch when I go out as they are usually very disappointing. But having seen some of the lunches as we were being seated I thought I'd give it a go. I chose roast loin of pork. It came on a hot plate, well presented, decent home made Yorkshire pudding,nicely cooked vegetables, duck fat potatoes although a little pale, were tasty. Decent amount of pork which was tender, nice crackling too. Gravy although packet (all are these days) was ok. Really enjoyed it. I wouldn't normally have a dessert ,but on the strength of my lunch I decided to have one. A caramel, chocolate Sundae. Although a simple dessert it was very tasty. Usually desserts in other restaurants are a ridiculous price of £9 -£10 and are very poor indeed. So I was pleasantly surprised at £6.75. We really enjoyed our lunch and we definitely return.

Fabulous place to visit for a nice drink and have lunch. Staff so friendly and accommodating.

Unless you have no other option or you’re being forced to, never eat here! The food was the equivalent to what I might expect at a weatherspoons, in most cases this would be an insult to weatherspoons but in this case this restaurant is an insult to weatherspoons in comparison. Steak chewy, tasteless. Mash came out with a crisp outer layer so obviously microwaved it was shameful. My partner had chunky chips come out that were so hard you could barely unless with brute brunt force get a fork through them. Their gravy was lumpyyyy again - no one in that kitchen could care less about the food their serve. When we spoke to our waiter he barely sounded surprised, didn’t apologise but did get us some other chips, so credit where credit due. How the “chef” could let this food leave the kitchen is shameful. The fact that people have given this restaurant 5* is baffling - I can only think that they have never had the chance to eat good food before. The only reason this has got a 2* and not a 1* is that the pie to its credit was relatively nice, very crust heavy but at least didn’t make you question life as to whether is this really what food has become???? To the People in the kitchen please note there has to be some pride in what you serve otherwise why serve it at all.

I like the swan, especially that they’re dog friendly. I ordered two portions of chips for a light snack for the kids and they came out as tiny portions. Not enough to go around which was disappointing. I asked the waiter if they could add a few more which there was plenty of room for in the bowl but he said no. Again disappointing as we don’t usually have a problem here

Abbie was great! Very attentive and kind. We had a great meal.

Went into bar midafternoon on Saturday. Dogs welcome and rugby on big screen. Food good and plenty of choice. Will be visiting again soon.
