I have been here a couple of times now and both times have been incredible. The food is absolutely delicious, would highly recommend the pie of the day (which was minted lamb the day I went), I've also been told by my friend that the Lasagne is very good. The sticky toffee is lip smackingly good! Very reasonably priced, quality ingredients in a charming little pub with fabulous ambience.

We are a party of 4, and after visiting "Severn Valley Railway," we decided to stop for a meal at "The Swan at Blakedown" before travelling home to Derby. The food, service, and atmosphere were very good, and the staff were extremely welcoming and helpful 😀 10/10 all-round 🤗🤗

Very impressed ! . After not visiting this place for many years, we decided on a Sunday teatime visit. Everything surpassed our expectations, good choice of qualify food , cooked to perfection. The staff were excellent, friendly and helpful, without being intrusive. Just right. We will definitely be back and will be recommending to friends and family.

Overall it’s fine. A nice normal run of the mill pub serving nice normal run of the mill pub grub. I went with two family members, all three of us had the pate to start. Our eyebrows did raise a little at how long this took to come out (45mins+) bearing in mind that the place wasn’t packed at the time, and what are you doing other than slapping a bit of toast, pate, and salad on a plate? I suspect they may have forgotten to put our order through for a moment, but no big deal. Pate arrived and it was again, fine! Nice but you won’t be writing home about it. For main I had the lamb shank, which surprisingly for me, I wholeheartedly recommend, it was brilliant! I will certainly be having it again should I go back. The mash and mint gravy was also to die for. The other two with me had chicken strips/goujons (you guessed it, fine!) and one of their baguettes (halloumi I believe, also fine!) We left satisfied but not blown away. I was going to knock off a star for poor atmosphere but the issue at hand was not the pubs fault nor the staffs fault. There were some rude and disruptive customers unfortunately sat near us, this put a bit of a downer on the outing, and the staff were unfortunately getting the sharp end of the stick too, trying to deal with these people so in light of that I don’t think it would be fair to remove a star.

A great looking pub that we've drove past a fair few times but stopped off and enjoyed a couple of visits recently. We've always received a lovely welcome and the service has been great also. The pub itself is superb and the only thing missing is a real fire. Minor thing. Decent Guinness and the food has been lovely but wish places would serve proper chips and not frozen ones. Great baguettes but we've also enjoyed the traditional menu and the sausage and mash and the pie and mash were cooked perfectly. The biscoff cheesecake was naughty but very nice. Dog friendly with a decent garden in warmer weather and hope to return soon.

A lovely looking pub, a lovely entrance but it enters a small room with a huge TV that is on a supposed news channel, very off putting. Luckily we were then seated in the conservatory, however it's bit dark in there, a bit more light needed to read the menu and see the food. I was a bit disappointed with the food which I expected to be home made and tasty, no-one was overly impressed, chips were not hot, nor was the veg. and for some reason one main meal had dried parsley sprinkled all over the food, it added nothing to the look or the flavour. Staff were very pleasant, but unlikely any of us will go again.

The Sunday roast at the Swan is one not to be missed, true home cooking, the roast potatoes are properly roasted, as is the meat. The gravy is full of flavour and lifts the meal to another level that is rarely achieved by many restaurants . The vegetables are served separately, and the portions are generous. The staff work very hard but always find time to be helpful and friendly. Because the food is so flavoursome and the service is so good it is necessary to book for Sunday lunch. Highly recommended.

The food was amazing, it's a real shame you're not closer to where we live as I'm sure you'd quickly become a firm favourite. We were so pleased it felt only fair to share this with you and to ask you to pass on our gratitude to front of house team and to the kitchen team. My goats cheese salad was gorgeous, my husbands scampi plentiful and my daughter actually ate all her meal (a rarity!)

We were looking for somewhere to eat on Thursday 7th September whilst spending a few days in Kiddiminster & it was getting quite late & came across The Swan. We got a drink at the bar & asked the lady what time they were serving food till as we got there about 7:45 & wasn’t sure if we would still be able to get something to eat. We were in luck, it wasn’t a problem even though they stopped serving food at 8 o’clock. We were shown into the conservatory & soon decided what we wanted, steak & chips with peppercorn sauce & scampi & chips with a side order of onion rings. We weren’t waiting long for our meals which were a good portion size & nicely presented. We thoroughly enjoyed our main courses & decided to have a dessert each - the homemade lotus biscoff cheesecake & the tiramisu which were also excellent! Both girls behind the bar that served us in the conservatory were really friendly & professional & were a credit to the owners. We wouldn’t hesitate to visit again the next time we stay in Kidderminster.
