This is a handy place to meet friends for lunch, with adequate parking. The food is very average, and the staff very hit and miss as to personality and being welcoming.

Fantastic food, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff. I was slightly disappointed that I was unable to have a ploughmans as I had been looking forward to it as it was my birthday and it was not clear on the menu you could only order until 4 plus I then could not have the dessert I wanted as it was sold out but the food I did order was really tasty and I enjoyed it.

The beef was really tough and mostly inedible, almost impossible to swallow. We had to leave most of it. They must have run out of roast potatoes because we only got a few scraps

Friendly and attentive staff, and very good beer. It was nice, at last, to have a wider choice on the food menu. The food was OK but not amazing; plates weren't hot and so the food goes cold too quickly, could easily be improved.

when we arrived we were very disappointed as we were in the marquee, i appreciate i asked for a quiet corner as we were a large group with children. but we didn't expect to be out on a limb, in a cold damp, marquee in January, that smelt damp. i wasn't even asked if we would be happy to be outside in the marquee when i booked, if there was no other choice i would have booked somewhere else. The children were cold, and we were prepared to eat our meal with our coats on. when the waitress came to take our drink order, i did ask was there any room in the pub, but i was told they were fully booked. but thank goodness, within five minutes a table was found inside to accommodate us. Service was ok, staff very pleasant, and a much better atmosphere to be inside, but I'm afraid the food wasn't as good as the last time we went, and unfortunately we won't be going back.

The food and staff were really very good. We were a bit disappointed not to be in the pub to eat and having to walk round the entire outside of the pub in the rain to use the toilet was annoying. We will book again but I would make sure that I request a pub table now I am aware. I would have liked to have known this when booking though

Sorry wasn't up to usual standard today, getting very expensive and extras like stuffing, Yorkshire etc are extortionate price. Love the Swan but unfortunately will be looking elsewhere for our get togethers in the future.
