   Amazing venue, great staff and the food was to DIE for. Our second visit as a group (and the 17th time I’ve been there!) will be booking a reunion for our cousin brunch shortly. Fantastic ambience (even if we were the noisiest in the pub, the neighbours to our table were understanding) and the staff ensured we had a great time.

   The Swan is a nice buzzy gastropub and the staff are always friendly. The problem is their portion control is making this poor value for money. The meat platter for 2 was just enough as a meal for 1 and the staff acknowledged the issue and removed the £17 from the bill. The main course portion sizes were equally sparse with one minute mushroom and tomato accompanying the steak. Fortunately the Rib Eye was excellent which went some way to make up for it!

   We met two friends for a special lunch and we all had something different to eat and thoroughly enjoyed all four choices. The staff were very friendly and cheerful, they looked after us and the experience was very good. We would go back for sure and take other friends and family. We have been to the Swan a few times now and have never been disappointed.

   Great food and an ideal location that’s only just over 5mins to the M1 to pop there for a nice lunch if having a stop on your journey. The only down side was that we went on a Wednesday lunchtime and there was only one waitress working, which meant she was quite stretched and we had to remind her of things we’d ordered when they were forgotten.

   Have been a frequent visitor of this place for many years on and off ...in the past it has been hit or miss, however it has changed hands and it was top notch

   Our server really tried her best, but we had to wait ages for our drinks, this happened last time we were there, and there were no customers at the bar. The starter arrived before the drinks, and the drinks order was taken on arrival. The rustic bread that we had to start was dry, and there wasn't enough oil & balsamic to moisten it. We both wanted a roast dinner, which is why we came to the swan but to be honest we both found it very underwhelming. We had 3 small pieces of beef, and the cabbage was hardly cooked. The one saving grace was the roast potatoes which were lovely.

   Food good, service good. Tables close together and noisy table next door which ruined the ambience. A bit expensive we thought.

    My ex-work colleagues and I had been looking for somewhere to lunch regularly where a tasty menu was available. The Swan has surpassed our expectations, and although we thought we would change the venue each time we met since coming here have had no reason to go elsewhere. My friend said it is a real find. We look forward to lunching there again and again. Highly recommended.
