Swan Inn in Bridgend

Fancied a pint on Sunday afternoon, and we were passing, so popped in. The only beer on was an ipa, two largers, or bottled cider, we chose our drinks and sat in the beer garden, and it was very unpleasant, dirt on the tables, under the tables, and needed a good sweep. Shame as the inside of the pup looked quite nice, 😕

Had a lovely meal here while in Bridgend for husbands birthday.. Service was speedy and friendly and the food was very tasty. We had a desert too. Beer & wine was very reasonable price and was run by lovely people. Thank you

Visited on burger night, and wow, what a burger. Had the double steak, with loaded fries and it definitely didn’t disappoint and was excellent value One of the regulars said the breakfasts are too notch, so that’s my next visit planned!

Lovely warm welcome fantastic chose of drinks also non alcohol choices too

Curry night at the swan, tasty, delicious and piping hot!!! Such a warm welcome from James the landlord, Will certainly be back!!

Had a really lovely breakfast here at a fantastic price. I went for the small breakfast which was ample for me. You get a juice/coffee/tea in with the price, real bargain. The waiter was really nice and the whole place was immaculate

Lovely atmosphere, cosy, clean and good selection

Beautiful Sunday lunch here, excellent choice of drinks including Guinness, so nice to see it full of families enjoying lunch together!! Will certainly be back, keep up the good work James x

Thank you James for having zero Gin at the bar…. It made a real difference to the day…. Diet Coke just doesn’t cut it … keep it stocked as I will be having it again !!! X

Absolutely awful experience! Booked here for Mothers Day. We were booked for 1.30 at 1.40 we asked how long it would be before we could be seated. Told half hour or so followed up by you can have my table as I’d rather be somewhere else. We soon discovered that the owners family were having lunch there rather than free up tables for their booked guests! No remorse no apologies and quite frankly staff who couldn’t care less. Worst experience ever resulting in a booking of 10 people leaving

Absolutely horrendous service! No care or manner at all towards customers. Politely asked how long our table would be as booked for a certain time and wasn’t ready, were very rude and not one bit of care or an apology for the fact they couldn’t even give us a time it would be ready.

Arrived for an arranged darts tournament in a local league... stood at the bar waiting to be served for over 10 minutes, watching as the bar staff (2 members) totally ignored us over and over again to serve their cronies and people they knew. Disgusting service!!! I didn't think this kind of, or lack of, customer service existed anymore, but these people need extensive training in customer service.

All good, new management finding their feet, promising start, keep it up

Couldn’t ask for a better local pub. Friendly welcome whether you’re a local or it’s your first time stopping in. Pour a lovely pint and a lovely environment

Great environment good beer and reasonable priced

Good local pub, freindly staff, log fires, great value

Always good value and atmosphere

Not the best dinner I've had there tbh but service is awesome fair play . For me the veg was bland .

Really nice traditional Sunday roast. Very generous portions of vegetables and a good selection. Friendly efficient staff too!

Just had a really lovely Sunday lunch with a very generous portions of vegetables. Lovely food and lovely people. Will go back again soon 🥂👍

I just had a Sunday dinner from the swan the food was exceptional top quality you get so much for your money Great value every time highly recommend this place to everyone and not just for the Sunday meals lovely people very friendly place to go and the beer is second to none

Really enjoyed sunday roast very tasty . Definitely recommend it .

I rang on the off chance to see if I could book to Sunday lunches. The choice of meats was really good and the price was excellent. I explained that my parents lived local to the pub but due to their age they would not be able to collect the meal and if there was any way they could help by delivering the food. They agreed that they would take the food to my parents home. Fantastic service, I was so pleased and glad I could get home cooked food to my parents. The food was so tasty my mum explained and the portion was huge. Lots of veg and a choice of potatoes. So thanks to the team at the Swan for helping me and delivering two lovely Sunday lunches.

Here for a funeral, lovely staff and food service.

Good food good quantity and good prices. Sunday roast. Lovely.

Has all the sport on a number TVs throughout the pub. Would like to see a few more beers on tap but is one of the cheapest places around

Great would definitely recommend it

Good all round food from a very popular Pub Inn Located in the village between Aberkenfig & Penyfai, Near Bridgend. Sunday dinners especially are popular with locals we go there every Sunday with a good choice of food choices.

Fantastic Sunday dinner and love curry night on a Wednesday. Excellent friendly service. Bring cash though no card machine.

Fabulous Halloween party well done all !

Absolutely tasty Sunday lunches

This place does a fab Sunday lunch at a reasonable price. Plenty of meat and a gravy jug for each lunch. You can choose a small or regular lunch to suit your appetite. Not a very big place so would recommend to book. Friendly staff and they also do a vegetarian option. They also do take away lunches. Well worth a visit.

Excellent pub food check availability times,plus great Sunday lunches, staff accommodating.

Great food at reasonable prices in a friendly environment, we will be back.

Very tasty Sunday roast. We visited for the first time last week. The young staff work extremely hard here and are very polite, friendly and professional. The food was served to us piping hot with ample amounts of meat, potatos, veg and gravy and all at a very reasonable cost. Plenty of desserts to choose from also Would most definitely recommend and will be returning one day soon.

Had our first Sunday roast here today and can honestly say it was delicious. It came out boiling hot, with ample sized portions and the young staff were amazing. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Excellent value for money. Adult meals at only £6.50! Would definitely recommend and will be returning.

We attended a funeral buffer there. A nice clean place which catered well for the occasion.

Been here a few times over the past few months with friends to watch football on BT Sports, but last night I tried the food for the first time. Not a bad little menu, consisting of steak, gammon, mixed grill etc. But also they have a separate curry menu out of which I had the Welsh Black Beef Curry Half & Half with Naan. Curry was very tasty and decent sized portion too. Good value for £6.95! Wednesday they do a Curry Night which you get a pint included and Saturday they apparently do 2 Mixed Grills for £17

Recently found this place proper home cooked food always hot and really tasty .we came Mother's Day and even though really busy still had plenty of time to give us attention especially Chris who even paid himself for a free drink for us so appreciated it .fabulous service and fabulous food

Great place to eat food is excellent from steaks too Sunday lunch. Great prices to

Great local pub with 1st class food

Fantastic Sunday Dinner hot and tasty and even though we were a table of ten we all were served at the same time. Staff very accommodating and a very friendly relaxed atmosphere

Lovely pint with my old butty ....

Sunday lunch exceptional. Recommend booking.

Yup enjoyed with some friends, a local pub with darts pool Sky TV,(No bad vibes) I had a look at the menu, well priced and a few vegetarian dishes

Good friendly pub with live sports

Smashing little pub, always have family get togethers here Good friendly staff, always on your level Such a nice place! Only downfall is locals do not know personal space within the bar

Good Sunday lunch served carvery style. Shame that the soft drinks were served warm but the staff were friendly and helpful. Car parking can be difficult and the restaurant gets really busy though this shows how popular it is.

Good beer. Good food. Good sports viewing.

The team are wonderful Small quiet pub

Party of seven had very good meal good choice on menu friendly staff Only one's dinning lot of dinkers Recommend the afternoon Large screen for sports

Terrible food. Really disappointed. will not be returning. Staff swearing and inappropriate poor atmosphere.

Lovely lunch plenty of it, the only down fall was the beef which I think was processed beef & not a nice roast joint. Service was good, waitresses very nice & polite

Lovely pub food served by friendly staff. Generous portions, piping hot, can't fault especially for the price.

que son los clientes de esta joya de un pub, la comida es fantástica y Colin y su personal te hacen sentir muy bienvenido, darle una oportunidad no te defraudará 😀

Alimentos muy agradable. Viene con auténtica salsa que es esencial. Un montón de verduras y salsa extra. No me puedo quejar.

Nos encanta salir a cenar por nuestra comida de domingo y nuestro preferido decidimos parar para llevar. Estábamos bastante devastadas y pensé que nunca encontrar un lugar para igual. Comenzamos probará diferentes restaurantes y bares en la zona de bridgend. La mayoría fueron bien, simplemente satisfactorio. Un amigo me sugirió el Swan Inn en Aberkenfig, así que reservamos. ¡Qué descubrimiento maravilloso! Un pequeño pub, decorado con muy buen gusto en tonos violetas y cremas y personal muy amable. Nos llevaron a nuestra mesa. Había un montón de espacio entre las mesas que es útil si lleva un pariente anciano, y tener que les ayuda a conseguir una mesa. Los camareros y las camareras son muy educados y no puede hacer más por ti. Hay mucha variedad en el menú regular y el domingo menú. La carne del domingo asado es abundante y de muy buen gusto. Todos los asados incluir morcilla, relleno de Yorkshire, asado parsnip y patatas asadas y también un plus adicional 5 verduras un montón de sabrosa salsa y las salsas apropiados para cada carne. Fue absolutamente deliciosa. Nos habían encontrado finalmente nuestro nuevo 'local' para nuestra comida de los domingos. Los postres son también excelentes, pero acuérdate de dejar espacio para ellos! Los precios son muy razonables, pero por favor asegúrate de reservar. Estoy encantado que encontramos El Swan Inn en Aberkenfig. Merece la pena una visita. Os garantizo que no te decepcionará!

Only a little pub, but Colin and staff cook the best meals ever from homemade curries to a fabulous mixed grill and the best Sunday lunch, the prices are really cheap, for Sunday lunch you must book as small place gets very busy

A wonderful little pub, The staff are very friendly and helpful, The meal's, service and atmosphere are Excellent, I would recommend this pub to anyone.
