Swan inn in Herefordshire, County of - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Shocking food, my child could have cooked better. Filthy tables, floors, windows ( could hardly see out ) toilets, utter filth, goodness knows when they were cleaned last, no toilet roll or hand wash. Very expensive for very poor quality food that was obviously microwaved, dry, very bad quality all round. The wait for the food was ridiculous, chef was too busy sitting outside with drinkers all smoking. never return.

Lovely welcome by the Landlord, however it took an absolute age to get our order in & then another wait to find out they were out of ham (it was 1pm on a Wednesday??). Anyway we ordered sausage egg & chips instead, which again took an age, even though the pub was quiet. Although it tasted ok, it looked like a kids meal! Pretty disappointed. No vegan options, limited vegetarian. The lunch menu was a bit 1980s tbh. Toilets didn’t look like they’d had a decent clean for weeks & had no toilet roll or soap in the ladies. Certainly wouldn’t go there again for food.

Visited with two others at lunchtime on a july wednesday and were apparently the only customers .Food quality was ok but not particularly cheap.I think the place may have changed hands recently and the big plus was that staff were extremely helpful and welcoming so all things considered would recommend

Visited Hereford for a weekend trip and booked a table over the phone, ahead of time, for Sunday lunch at 3pm. Opening times unclear across FB & Google. Booking was taken, no issues. Arrived and the place was deserted. We were seated nonetheless but deduced they must be closing soon. Roast was a tiny, sad, carvery affair. ‘Cheesy’ leek consisted of thin water and flour mixture who forgot to invite cheddar to the party. Food tasted like it had never even heard of salt or seasoning, nevermind encountered it. Over-boiled carrots slumped sadly on our plates, begging for the end to come. And how one can mess up the humble potato to that extent was simply astounding. The only thing vaguely suggesting seasoning was the stuffing, which is just as well, as it likely came from a packet. The food had clearly been sat there for hours, marinading in its own despair. We looked forward to this as a weekend treat but left sorely disappointed. At £40+ for two people, it wasn’t just the food leaving a bitter taste. If you’d have just told us you were closing, or that we’d be thrown the sorry dregs of your remaining roast (heat lamps were turned off and bartender clocked off shortly after we arrived), we’d have happily gone elsewhere. In fact, we drove to Bunch of Carrots for dessert, in an attempt to salvage the remains of our Sunday, and almost cried when we saw their beautiful carvery on show. Never again.

Very friendly, welcoming and accomodating. We only had drinks so cannot comment on food. They even brought us a fresh bowl of water for our dog.

Brilliant food, amazing staff, will definitely be coming a lot, very accommodating for gluten free

Good food Well looked after

Been for Sunday lunch a few times and it has been very good. Everyone there very helpful. Thank you

Came in for a nice Sunday roast. Staff were very friendly and the place its self has a really nice rustic “family run / non-corporate” feel, which was lovely! The roast was delicious, only thing that let it down was the lack of broccoli, but that of course is personal preference. Really nice place would recommend!

Great food, great atmosphere, good service and a lovely welcome by the landlord. An extensive overall menu but as alternative a smaller lunchtime menu.

Went for lunch! Fabulous food! Good service! Friendly atmosphere! Highly recommended!

Friendly staff,, really good service,, really good food,, couldn't say anything bad about it at all

Excellent food service and surroundings really warm and friendly pub. Had the best beef madras I’ve ever had! Would recommend The Swan without reservation lovely atmosphere cosy and welcoming

Excellent food and you have to try their Sunday roast beef. It is so so good. Thursday night Steak with my Uncle and a nice long chat is fab and the staff look after him so well. Thanks guys for doing this.

This was our first time here. It's an attractive, spacious pub with an interesting menu with several specials. We enjoyed our meals and a couple of pints of Banks's. A friendly, genial host. We'll be going again.

thoroughly enjoyed our sunday lunch here today, food was perfect and the staff were very friendly. would definitley recommend this place and we will be back

Beautiful atmosphere great food definitely go again

Basic food, probably a little overpriced.

I have never been in this place so please explain how I am supposed to be able to give you feedback is there a con going on !!! Please explain.

Another great meal at the Swan, lovely and friendly staff and amazing food:)

Very nice. Old type of building, good service and nice staff

Excellent food excellent service

Love the Swan Inn. Food always very good as is prices. Good friendly service in a nice atmosphere.

Such a great pub, lovely food, great value. Had a steak here and the quality and portion was fab. Great roast too. Actually, the lovely landlord gave us a lot to the station when cab numbers turned out to be busy, such a great experience, will not forget, thanks guys!

First Class service,,and a First Class Meal see

Food great. Friendly.. Shame so dark and dingy. Looks like smoking was banned only last week. Tobacco coloured walls

We had a delightful evening. Good host, good food at a reasonable price (and one of us was a happy vegetarian with great choice). Look forward to our next visit

We had a lovely meal, all freshly cooked. We had to wait a while as a large table was in, but this was explained at booking so I knew this would be the case. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, you couldn’t ask for nicer and friendlier service. Our food came out hot and fresh, we really enjoyed the relaxed feel of the pub, no loud drinkers or music.. was just what we needed and wanted. We Will absolutely be visiting again!

What a lovely pub, staff very attentative, looked after all our needs, food was amazing, well done the swan

Lovely friendly staff, great place to stop on the way back from Wales.

Booked a table for myself, my partner and her parents. Absolutely loved our food, drinks and atmosphere. Linda and her team are simply amazing and everyone highly recommends Linda's cooking. All cooked to perfection, served in organised timely manner and our service was exceptional. I doubt that anyone can find anything negative with regards to exceptional dedication to professional standards second to none. Thank you so much Linda x We will be back soon!

Had a meal last night with two friends, and I couldn't fault the place. Lovely little pub,very friendly staff,atmosphere was great, and the food was excellent. I had the bass fishcakes and they were beautiful. The price of all three meals was very reasonable. I would Highly Recommend this pub. Many thanks, Alan.

Stumbled across this lovely pub while doing a delivery in Hereford. What an absolute delight! Lovely friendly staff, good selection and delicious food!!

Nice quiet place to have a meal, the food is really nice and it is a really nice pub with friendly staff and a good atmosphere

Great place to eat and friendly staff will definitely go there again

Disappointed that they didn't have what was on the menu, we settled for rump steak and it was tough and chewy

Gorgeous food and really lovely staff

Unpretentious pub with good beer and relatively cheap meals. Standard pub grub.

Excellent food, environment, prices and service

It was a beautiful meal which was complemented by the charming staff.

Very good home cooked food. Nice selection of bear/cider

Held my daughters baby reveal here today amazing food, catered for what I wanted staff excellent and such a lovely place thank you

We had our fathers wake at the Sawn Inn last week. From the start at short notice and a week before Christmas. From manager to all staff so sensitive considerate helpful and friendly and the food was fantastic. Thank you so so kuch

Boxing day meal for 11 . Very disappointed. We ordered the food before we arrived but they did not bother to check our email consequently couldn't have the meal I wanted. No Christmas atmosphere . Never will any of us go there again. Not a family treat we wanted. So disappointed No stars from us

Wow what can I say. Table was set up lovely with crackers and the christmas dinner was supperb , start main and pudding all for set price and loads of it, highly recommend. Friendly staff. (Sorry forgot to take pictures of starter's but they were great) left well stuffed.

Great pub & great food, staff were very friendly

Cracking little pub, food is simple but excellent, so much choice and very well cooked and served. Well worth a visit

Had an excellent midday meal, cooked by Craig & served by Liam, as usual. Highly recommended for quality of food & company too 😊👍

Visited last week with a couple of friends, we all had different meals and the general consensus was how clean the premises were, how polite the staff were and the food was very nice and at reasonable prices. Quite a selection of good pub grub which was cooked and presented well. Will probably return when in the area.

Nice quiet pub. Great food always a nice welcome.

To start this best inn because it is a transitional inn with very good food and drinks. The food is very good quality. There is good atmosphere. The prices are very good. They gone all out of way because there was ten of us for Sunday lunch . The food hot and lot for your money I like to say thank you from the Eckleys We will be back soon

Thanks to the wonderful team here, we had a lovely birthday celebration for my Dad's 90th, enjoying home cooked meals, as usual. Keep up the great work, Craig. Highly recommended

Great little pub, staff were fab and food was great.

Been many times but not recently, so went with whole family.. Meals were all lovely, place is really friendly, will go back soon.

We had a brilliant meal here. We'll cooked and not too long to wait. The owner was so kind, and the staff very friendly. We'll be back!! Phil & Carol 🥰🥰

Wonderful meal with fantastic customer service. Lovely gardens top.

Great food and beer and very reasonable price. Very friendly staff.

A beautiful pub with good food - Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Sunday lunch is well worth trying - Significant car park spaces, with level ground. Easy place to visit if wheelchair access is required.

Fantastic fòod, lovely atmosphere and welcoming staff.

Nice friendly staff, reasonably priced food

The T. A. average rating of 4.5 is correct: certainly a solid 4+. Looked in for a light lunch (sandwich), not on offer; so came back in the evening for dinner, very good food + value. Had homemade lasagna and tasty duck + pheasant pie, with lots of fresh veg. Excellent friendly service, cosy ambience. One oddity: doesn't - at least, last Sat. night didn't - serve wine by the glass, only the bottle. Reasonable parking space. Recommended.

Had Sunday lunch . Very school dinner. Overpriced for cooking ability.

Great meal and surroundings. I recommend :)

A super country pub with great staff and delicious food. Free car park. Great choice of specials, the lamb shank was great. Ace staff.

My partner and i happened upon the Swan returning from home Herefordshire on Valentines day, they were about to shut for lunch but kindly let us order lunch, and we were very happy they did, the food was excellent and cooked perfectly for us, we ordered a 10oz steak each with home made chips which came with lovely fresh salad, coleslaw, fried tomato and garden peas and onion rings, Liam who served us was really polite and friendly and the lady chef came and asked if everything is ok, she was about to go home when we arrived but stayed to cook our excellent meal. I highly recommend The Swan Inn , it is spot on and fairly priced !

Had chicken burger, raw in the middle, staff apologetic and replaced, then had the cook come out and say you the lady with the chicken burger, to be told you know how it is you assume its cooked when it floats to the top, that was enough for me.

Certainly not a pretentious pub, friendly staff, extensive menu and reasonable prices- what’s not to like.

Very good food and service, friendly staff.

Went for a family meal lovely atmosphere the waitress we had was lovely, great food all covid sanitising stations there, very enjoyable evening would highly recommend

My family(5 of us) took me to the Swan for a birthday meal lunch.Made welcome minute we entered premises. Nice to see a comprehensive menu rather than a limited one.We had excellent steaks all cooked to perfection with assorted choices of accompaniments and when served it was plentiful and very appealing to the eye. Service by the young waitress was very good.Will definitely bring friends here again. Thank you Linda & staff.

very nice place,great staff, good food at a very reasonable price,good size portions too.

Wonderful place with friendly staff and great food . Love the place !

Sunday Lunch Treat Never again there!!!! FOOD WAS SERVED COLD Quietly told the bar staff they apologised took it away and microwaved it!!! Disgusting Sunday roast in the microwave not to be potatoes like rubber dried up peas meat like rubber and dehydrated gravy just not nice and no taste !!!! Time to pay no apology about the food no offer of discount just full price!! horrified when he piped up and said come see you again. Not On Your Nelly.. Worst Sunday Lunch Ever. It is all cooked early in the morning and left warming in pans ready for service and then they will microwave it for you if its too cold.

Superb meal. Excellent service. Well recommended. Can't wait to go again.

Perfect meal Perfect service thank you

Found it very expensive and not worth the money on bit. And a long wait even tho not many in.

It was a lovely setting and great service with friendly, attentive and helpful staff

Nice food, good prices friendly staff. Who can ask for more.

Plenty of parking, fabulous food and plenty of it. Staff were a joy to be served by. 100% would recommend and I'm already planning my next visit.

Relaxed friendly atmosphere. Good service and food.

Really nice pub, excellent food and warm, welcoming atmosphere. Definitely go back again.

Fantastic stay, great food especially the pizza. Good night's sleep, great views. The service was spot on and looked after us.

A very pleasant experience, to visit a pub with no aspirations of being a gastropub pub ( whatever that is ). Very chatty landlord despite never having met us before. Attractive original decor without tasteless flourishes. No Adele or Atomic Kitten playing in the background...

Very good with excellent food 🍲

Lovely roast dinner for Fathers Day

Sunday lunch still as lush as ever. However, can we have Yorkshire puddings even if we don't have the beef?

As usual, the staff were very helpful. Lovely friendly pub/restaurant. The carvery which due to circumstances of Covid, is brought to your table. We chose the roast beef, and it was absolutely delicious. The meat was so tender, it just came apart. Congratulations to the...

Friendly staff, great food nothing to much trouble.

Very friendly and pleasant staff

Lovely food and the lady that served us was very warm and friendly. Great place.

Service good and staff very friendly, food cooked fresh lots of it vary good choice no complaints at all.

Amazing carvery, friendly staff, can't ask for anything more. I'll be seeing you soon! ✌️
