Every time we visit The Swan, we are met with very pleasant and professional staff. We met some family who were visiting London, and we were able to take our time to catch up and have a lovely meal and drinks.

On arrival we were very pleasantly greeted by the reception desk. We were taken to the gallery, We were then taken to an excellent table in the corner of the restaurant and given menus. There is either an Al la Carte or a set 2 or 3 course menu, to choose from. We found the choices offered on both were very good The service provided by the staff was excellent. We were not rushed in anyway and the food was delicious. We were very pleased with everything.

Great choice for a place to eat, views of Saint Pauls from the windows, and away from the madding crowd. Ideal for a meal after or before seeing a play - it has links directly to the Globe Theatre.

We had an amazing afternoon celebrating my mother in law's birthday with a classic afternoon tea. The setting was beautiful, tastefully decorated, comfortable and with views overlooking the Thames and St Psul's Cathedral. The staff were welcoming and the level of service second to none. I would highly recommend.
