There was barely a table in sight that wasn't wiped and has food on it, it wasn't well managed as there was a massive family next to us (that wasn't the problem) and left a giant mess that wasn't cleaned for an hour.

The food was quite nice however, the sausages were a bit on the overcooked side but other then that, the food was good, the environment not so much.

Just had a really great lunch here, 2 adult BOGOF meals, a kids meal, drinks for only £20

The food was excellent, especially the chips, nice and fresh. Smokin Joe burgers were delicious.

This review is to give big appreciation to the kitchen staff, having to work in this terrible heat.
Bar staff were very polite and friendly.

AWFUL!! Went for dinner yesterday with kids, the restaurant was No busier then you would expect on a bank holiday if anything it was probably quieter then I anticipated. Unfortunately we had to wait 1hour and 40mins to receive our main meals. After complaining we were still waiting at the hour and fifteen mark the waiter said he would go and check and unfortunately forgot to come back. Once food arrived it was cold and quite honestly rank. I’m not expecting Ritz quality but something that you could actually eat would of been nice. Will not be returning ever !

The steak was good, and the chips were good, but my kids' mash was stodgy with a bit of a brown colour. Not sure if it had been microwaved or just left on the side for a long time. Their carrots were also much too hard to eat. And the gravy was missing; despite reminding the staff, it still never arrived.

We went on a busy day without reservation and we have been lucky that we got a table. Staff have been friendly, you can feel the Christmas spirit all around. Best nachos ever! So delicious. Other then that 4 of us had different dishes and all of us after the main have been full and happy. Really good prices too.

We have been to Swan Inn a few times, most recent visit it seemed like they had upped their game... its not fine dining, but it is good value and child friendly. Food is generally good and portion sizes are pretty good. Pub itself could do with a lick of paint here and there...

Menu is varied with some slightly odd options - includes a burger meal with a rainbow bun and Vimto flavouring...!

We went for Christmas Dinner really lovely food and amazing service. Staff were lovely only issues was it was very warm and we couldn't turn the radiator down but was a minor issue. They were lovely with the children aswell and very tolerant of the mess my toddler made while enjoying his Christmas lunch.

Huge Compliments to the chef yesterday for serving my family and i a wonderful Christmas Dinner. It was a perfect meal especially the roast potatoes! The service and staff were very attentive and I did thank them before I left but was sorry I did not thank the chef personally. I would definitely recommend a Christmas Day lunch here and would return. Well done to you All you totally deserve a good review especially when you have to give up your special time to serve others. Thankyou!
