  “We went here on a Saturday evening. The pub was fairly quiet which was a little surprising. The music playing was decent, the service was good as was was the food. No issues whatsoever and we'd happily eat here again. This isn't gourmet food just good solid pub grub. Most enjoyable!”

  “Another great Sunday lunch with the family. The food was delicious and really good portions for everyone. The service was fast, friendly and efficient. Our waitress Olivia was friendly and attentive as usual. Looking forward to our next visit.”

  “Very disappointed. We took some friends for lunch on 1st Ocober. Out of 4 meals only the steak and Ale pie was enjoyed. The venison (and all veg)was totally sumbmerged in a thick pink sauce and the meat was super rare. 2 salmon fish cakes were almost cold with hard eggs on top. Accompanying 'roast ' potatoes seemed like left over new potatoes just slighty heated but certainly not roasted. Service was however, friendly and efficient.”

  “I had a lovely meal yesterday at Ye olde Swan. I chose the venison, I believe it is a new dish, it was fantastic! To top off my experience I was served by a lovely young lady called Olivia, very attentive, polite and most importantly down to earth. It is rare to get such an authentic interaction from a server. This is definitely an experience I will remember when I walk into a pub. I will definitely be returning again!”

  “This pub is in a beautiful setting and has a certain charm despite its large size. Service was excellent. My request for yoghurt as an alternative to mayonnaise was catered for. The food let it down a little. The kid's menu has steak on it, which is good. They asked how I wanted it cooked, also good. It came with a generous coating of cracked pepper. This is something they should have also asked about. Children can be fussy and scraping the pepper off wasn't enough, my little one wouldn't eat it. I wasn't asked how I wanted my burger cooked. This is acceptable as microbiology dictates ground beef shouldn't be rare. The burger (a double) was completely overdone which ruined it somewhat. I would go back to this pub but I'd be a little more careful with what I ordered next time. All in all I felt it was a little pricey for what I got.”

  “A lovely Greene King pub. The staff were incredibly friendly and the service was really swift. The food was hot and well made. They clearly care about what they are producing.”

  “Had a great experience at the pub thanks to Olivia. She was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Despite the pub being busy, she remained professional, checked on us regularly, and made sure our food and drinks arrived promptly. The food was really nice and everything was served perfectly. Olivia's positive attitude and excellent customer service really stood out”

  “Solid pub lunch, squid to start, followed by 3 meat roast (beef, pork and turkey) dinner. I skipped dessert but included a pic of my daughter's STP which she said was excellent. £29 for a 3 course lunch which is good value for a sit down meal in a lovely pub. Served by James today who was excellent.”

  “We as a family come here sometimes for meals for special occasions, we came here on Thursday for our Christmas dinner!! The revamp looks better and looks more cosy than what it was like previously. The festive burger was what I had and it was delicious! Me and my family love it here!! Lots of food and drinks to choose from. The staff are wonderful too, they're attentive, however I had to keep getting their attention at points which is something you shouldn't have to do but for me that's not a big deal, they are still attentive staff and welcoming. The atmosphere is very comfortable, and it looks like your eating at someone's house, lovely pub 😊”

  “We booked dinner for three as we couldn’t get into the restaurant next to our hotel. Drinks and mains only, two steaks, both medium/rare and a steak pie. I forgot to take pics before we had started eating 🙄 Food was lovely, staff friendly and hard working. I asked for extra gravy with my pie which was no problem at all. Would definitely recommend and return.”
