We are a village pub at the heart of its community, at The Swan, we believe the local pub should be more than just a place to eat and drink, it should be the beating heart of the village. A place where stories are shared, laughter is loud, and everyone feels they belong. Our food philosophy is rooted in simplicity, seasonality, and locality. We use only the freshest ingredients from nearby farms, butchers, bakers, brewers, and producers, ensuring every plate celebrates the best of our region. Our menu blends British pub classics with a small plates and street food concept, designed for sharing and gathering without formality. Quality, comfort, and affordability are at the core of everything we serve. We bring the community together through a vibrant calendar of live entertainment from our ever-popular weekly quiz night, to live music, karaoke, open mic sessions, and stand-up comedy nights. Every event is a chance to laugh, connect, and make memories, whether you’re on stage or in the crowd.
