We had family come up for a visit so had decided to go out for dinner. The Old Swan is local to us and always has fair pub prices on booze and food. I am so glad we all had Sunday roasts as they were so yummy and all fresh ingredients. Including proper homemade yorky pudds. The family ranged age 11 to 76 and everyone enjoyed it. The restaurant end is nicely decorated and plenty of space between the tables too. We will be back and as always the staff were great and friendly. Highly recommended and great value sunday roast. Definitely one of the best we've ever had in a pub.

We had traveled over from Norfolk to meet up with family and I picked the old swan as family lived nearby anyway food was awful. I had roast Turkey and beef you needed a chainsaw to get through the beef, the mash was yellow from sitting under a hot lamp I guess,I tried a little then left it. They charged for onion rings that came with hunters chicken meal plus added ciabatta bread and charged but we didn’t order it Long long wait for dessert, overall we had been in there over two half hours from the time we booked ! Half a pint of Guinness £4.80 crazy . This has to be the worst experience in a restaurant even the staff were laid back and unprofessional

1/ 5 This has to be worst place we have been for a family meal out and we’ve been to a lot of places very disappointed. The Sunday roast was very tough and tasted like it had been under the hot a long time While’s writing this we’ve been waiting half an hour for our dessert. We ordered on the Sunday specials menu as it’s two courses for £12.49 which is a good deal but we also have blue light discount but they won’t offer both deals but this was not mentioned when ordering. Staff are very unprofessional and I’m not planning on returning.

Lovely pub with one major flaw. The "new" menu is dreadful. Used to be able to get a Sunday roast, lasagne and other pasta- all gone. Lots of regulars - and the staff - complaining about the menu forced on them by Green and King. After last meal have been in bed for 3 days ill . Come on Green King change the menu back to a more palatable choice.

The pub was decent, but it didn't leave a lasting impression. The atmosphere was alright, and the drink selection was typical. While it's a fine place to hang out, it lacked that unique charm or standout features that would make it truly special.

One of the few places we found open on a Monday evening. Kallum, the host, was extremely accommodating, not least given the size of our group with relatively limited space. There were one or two issues with our order, which were swiftly and generously resolved. The food was not too quick to arrive, but was hot and generous in portion size, and very good value for money.

I was told all tables were reserved when they were not as nobody occupied them within the 2hour sitting. Also I was told I could only eat in a certain area while others were told they could eat where they wanted . I also had very poor service. I would rate this place a 0 but that was not an option so I give it a 1.

Wow. Our first time back to the pub in over a year and It's brilliant to see how Trudy and the team have brought this much loved pub back to life. The food was utterly divine. Trudy mentioned the side orders that we could have with our food. They didn't have 2 poppadom and i was offered an alternative. Previously these little extras would've been ignored/dismissed. It's nice to see that Trudy and the team know what customer service is and are wanting to make the Old Swan an success. Well Done Trudy & Team. You're doing an amazing job. xxx

We ordered 2 pints of real ale from the bar maid who obviously wished she was anywhere but behind the bar. The beer was warm to the touch and should not have been served, the beer was clearly off. The bar maid refused to replace it until she had servered other before sorting the issue at hand. She then had to call the manager to approve a swap, it took so long we asked for a refund. My first and last visit to this pub. Rude and unwelcoming.

Its ok just for the location and the facilities, portions are really small for the price you pay, and its just ok food, its not something that tastes amazing and the chips were not fully cooked. So 3 stars for location and because its dog friendly but very low score on the food.
