The Swan

We went there to have lunch. They were really busy even though we went at 3pm. Staff was very warm and welcoming. Even though we were told that food would take long, it arrive pretty quickly. The food was delicious. We had a great time there. If I could I would give 10 stars to the team. Service was flawless. Would love to go back.

Food and drink are standard Greene King heritage fare and that's a good thing: you know what you get and at decent prices at that. The staff have been friendly on both recent occasions we've visited, although when it gets busy (Friday early evening) they seem to get a little more flustered. But not enough for it to mar the service. Food was good, though it's not difficult, to be fair, to go wrong with the stock they have. There are a few tables outside at the back, and more on the high street at the front: excellent for watching the world go by. Or for looking at the beautiful church. Or the windmill. Plenty of space inside, too, of course if the weather is inclement or it gets too dark (there is no outside lighting at the front). The toilets were clean and tidy but it's the staff that does it, making locals and visitors alike feel very welcome indeed! We'll be back!

My fiancé, 3 month old and I was staying a couple nights in the area and this was next door to us. So came up for some drinks and dinner. Even though it’s on a very busy road the inside was nice. Very spacious. Staff were all really nice and helpful. If you like your bikes & cars it’s a good spot to sit out front and watch. You get all sorts passing, with the nice view of the church opposite. Food was all spot on with no complaints. Nice and hot and well presented.

First evening meal here for a while. The car park was almost full when we arrived and there was a really good atmosphere inside. It was warm, although the large open fire was not lit. There were families here and in previous occasions I have seen well behaved dogs in the bar area (it's so lovely to find a pet friendly pub). There seemed to be a lack of staff, as we had to wait for bar staff to appear behind the bar in between serving at tables. There were people waiting to be served all round the bar. The meal we wanted was unavailable due to not having the main ingredients, which was a shame. Over the years, this has been a very hit and miss pub to go to. Hopefully it's just a New Year blip. Update Feb 2023 Visited again for a meeting in a room just off the main bar. The bar was well staffed and our meal was delivered promptly. Much better service tonight. Update May 2023 We popped in for a midweek lunch, and took the dog with us. There were a couple of parking spaces available. Service and food was fantastic. Everything we ordered was available and made to our preference. Even the dog had a sausage and met some of the customers. Toilets were fully stocked and clean.
