The Swan in Warrington

very nice meal had the lighter lunch option and the steak pie very well presented and very tasty highly recommended

We’ve just been in for a nice meal on a Sunday, it was busy as expected but we were sat fast and drinks were ordered and came so fast! Then the food was spot on. The lady serving us Ebony is so nice every time we come in always ensuring she makes conversation and make us feel so welcomed. We will be back every week! Thanks to everyone and Ebony especially the effort doesn’t go unnoticed!

A very long wait for table service. Ordered chicken breast with side salad. The chicken was bone dry and stringy. The salad consisted of a few leaves, wafer thin cucumber and tiny pieces of tomato. A very small meal which was not value for money. The menu is quite varied but everything seems to be "with chips". No good salad selections at all. First time visiting here and will the last. Not impressed with food or service.

Steph and Sally 🥂 fantastico hosts

Dreadful Sunday lunch. Grey beef, lumpy cold gravy. Old dry roast potatoes. Worst Sunday lunch ever. Lady who served us was lovely.

We had breakfast here and it was amazing. Sally the host was lovely and very welcoming and couldn't do enough for us. Definitely recommend coming here.

In time of need sally really helped us out when time of need Lovely place !!! X

Excellent service from Tina, she gives an extra effort always

Very nice pub but quite expensive nearly 14 pounds for 2 pints

Food was good and service but wait time was to long

Laura was the BEST waiter ever the food was lovely the atmosphere was amazing and the waiters were really fast and I really recommend it

Lovely place, nice food, friendly staff.

Such a lovely place and the staff are attentive.... but the food is absolutely diabolical and inedible. It was probably the worst meal I have ever had in my life. I did complain and was offered a free pudding which I declined. EXTREMELY POOR QUALITY FOOD. I will never return. ABSOLUTELY DREADFUL. I had Cod and chips. The Fish smelt off, the peas were like bullets and the chips were frozen, 10kg for a £1 chips. Inedible. My friend had chicken. Again completely inedible. We had to go to the chip shop on the way home. AVOID, AVOID, AVOID.

Received a lovely warm welcome on Saturday 3rd May for breakfast. Our order was taken as soon as we were ready and the food came out in good time and was delicious. We had some fun with our waiter Ellis, who explained they were short on teapot lids and tea spoons! I did get a teapot complete with lid..and knickerbocker glory tea spoon!! We had met up for a catch up and were not rushed in any way. Always refreshing to get such personable staff, be back soon.

Staff where very friendly service was very good lovely meal .

Wonderful meal, service from Mia was fantastic. Would definitely return.

Amazing service from Laura, food was amazing! Would definitely return!

Very little staff and service.was.poor.

Enjoyed the food and place very nice.

Lovely food, great atmosphere. Give my compliments to the kitchen staff, I know how hard they work behind the scenes. I hope they get as much recognition as the staff seen front of house. Couldn’t recommend the food here more.

We were looked after by Ebony. Lovely early evening meal after work on Friday. Great friendly service and excellent atmosphere. Thank you!

Breakfast service was good Sally was friendly and very helpful and the reason for the 5stars

Food was cold but Steph made it right .thankyou

First visit to the Swan for over 25 years. Food was good, reasonably priced and the service provided by Laura was excellent.

We had a lovely meal at the Swan for lunch today. The service was perfect, the food was great and the atmosphere was fantastic. Dalton served us today. He is very professional, friendly and hospitable. He is helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Dalton is an absolute asset to your establishment. A⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

What a lovely place! We came for an evening meal and then breakfast the following day. The evening meal was fantastic and the kids meals were better than the usual meals offered to kids. Service was amazing in the evening, happy staff looked like they enjoyed working here and the place had a lovely atmosphere to it. Breakfast the next morning was outstanding! I find cooked breakfasts are usually all the same but they were definitely a cut above here. Maggie was the chef at the time and I’ve got to say I’ve never tasted a nicer cooked breakfast. Continental breakfast available and all high quality food. Service was excellent! We were looked after by Steph who was super cheerful, helpful and on the ball making sure everyone was looked after and all tables cleaned promptly. We will definitely be back, thank you.

Steph looked after us today and she was very pleasant, would definitely come again

Wonderful friendly pub style atmosphere.

Great atmosphere and very nice food. Our server, Laura, was extremely pleasant throughout and attentative. A lovely family meal out.

Great experience at the Swan for my first time. I was served by the lovely Laura, who went above and beyond. I will be back for the steak and Ale pie again soon .

A great evening in the Swan. Great food and drinks & fantastic service from Laura. Great atmosphere, food and staff! Would recommend.

Staying at the premier inn so nipped in because the customer I’m working for recommended this place for food I travel a lot with my job so I’m always away so I can honestly say this place is quality for food and all staff are really nice Steph the manager is really welcoming and it’s a place that is organized the food is proper tasty and cooked well reasonable prices I’ll definitely come back for food

Lovely pub with lovely food. Our server was Laura and she was great! Steak and ale pie had both steak and ale in it, what more could a gal ask for

Had a lovely meal with family. Jake R was brilliant and really helpful and efficient

From when we entered the door, the staff were so lovely, helpful and created a great atmosphere. The food was amazing! We both had mains from the specials and they were truly amazing. Our sever Jake R was so sweet and made our meal so much better. Can’t wait to return :)

Me and my husband have just been for a meal here, service was great! Please pass on a massive thank you to Ebony for looking after us. The portion sizes were great, food was amazing and service was quick! Will definitely be back Thank you!

First time visiter to the Swan , but definitely not my last , Food was just what my family needed , Thanks to Ebony for making us feel so welcome on our travels. Thanks from the Livesey's

We love coming to The Swan! The atmosphere is cozy, the food is great, and Ebony is always a friendly face. She is incredibly helpful, friendly, and makes us feel so welcome. Would definitely come back and would highly recommend.

Ebony provided exceptional service, making the dining experience delightful. The burger was perfectly cooked and flavorful. Will be back again soon.

Friendly staff, excellent service and large portions of quality food. Several vegan options available which is akways a plus for me! Can't fault it, definitely recommend. Thank you Tina for being a lovely server.

Whilst staying at the adjacent Premier Inn we enjoyed both evenings in The Swan. On our final evening we were welcomed by Laura, who was a fantastic host for the entire evening. We originally ordered some food that had become unavailable due to the busy Easter weekend. Laura allowed us plenty of additional time to choose another option. Her and the other members of the teams' overall service were exceptional, as was the Cod and chips we ate. Desserts were incredible. All food is reasonably priced. The Mixed Grill and Sausage and Mash we had the previous night were also fantastic. Overall a great experience and thanks again to Laura for her patience and professionalism throughout the evening. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.

Lovely Easter lunch perfectly taken care of by Olly who was fantastic!

Very friendly great burger and I recommend coming - served by oli

We have visited the Swan on several occasions and always find the food and service excellent. It's our favourite pub offering great food and service. We last visited on Saturday 19/04/2025 and thoroughly enjoyed our family meal. A special thanks to Steph and Dalton for the lovely time that we had. The customer service is not only exceptional but consistently excels expectations. Thank you and see you soon Val Mark and Richard

Had a lovely meal here today ,are server ,Laura was really great ,the food was lovely and the pub was friendly and staff really nice

Lovely food. Great venue and superb staff 👍🏼

It was amazing always lovely to go. Our server Lara was amazing she was so kind and bubbly. She always had a smile on her face and was helped us with all our requirements.

Dropped in for lunch. Service was exceptional from Laura, food was great and overall atmosphere lovely for a Saturday afternoon.

Three times we've been in the last 2 months and without a booking, got turned away (despite there being plenty of empty tables). Third time (now I understood why) made a booking but it was the worst experience ever. Waited ages to be seated (and watched other people stand and wait ages too on arrival). Had to sit at a table that was full of the previous people's left over food and drink (outside table). When I went in to order at the bar, stood waiting for ages again- barman came and saw me, said he's be a minute and continued to wait until another person finally came and served me. I ordered the gammon and my hubby the mixed grill - the gammon in the mixed grill was bigger than mine. Won't be dining here again.

We were welcomed back by the new management, after a dissapointing meal months prior. The food and service was excellent. Can't thank you enough. We will defiantly be back

Great food and great service from Laura who looked after me and my mum

Celebrated an 80th birthday here. Couldn’t have chosen better. Ollie our waiter was really friendly, checking in regularly with us, taking photos and providing a great service. The food was prompt, delicious, hot and tasty. Highly recommended.

A lovely pub with a great menu. What lets it down is the lack of staff. The staff are very good but there's always too few on. It's a big pub so staff members have a lot of customers to look after. On the last two visits, I've had to go looking for staff to place orders or ask questions. On every visit I've made, I've had to wait for a good while at the door to be greeted and then seated. I know profit margins in the industry are tight and staffing seems to have reduced across the board but the service level here seems particularly poor despite having diligent experienced staff.

Terrible just terrible. For starters the wait for getting a seat was 5-10 minutes. We ordered the crispy chicken burger which took 30-50 minutes to get there, the quality of chips and burger was cold and very few. We also got a sorbet which to half an our and it had no flavour and was pretty much ice.

Service was very slow but was quite busy. Chicken strips & Halloumi Fries were heavily fried & really quite greasy. Was ok.

lovely food and staff was amazing. Special shoutout out to Olly who went that extra mile to make out experience special

Ollie was amazing, made us feel really welcome,

Me and my little girl visited the Swan recently and had an amazing experience! Especially Ollie who was absolutely great with Cece and couldn't have done more for us! Will definitely visit again!

Enjoyed a lovely evening here with friends. Ollie, our server was amazing and couldn't of been more attentive. Will definately be back soon!

Visited with friends and few weeks ago. We was served by a young lad called Ollie. Such a positive young man. Made our visit worth while

All staff were friendly and welcoming and couldn’t do enough for us. The Swan pub is like a country cosy cottage and there is loads of outdoor space for drinks in warmer weather but we sat inside. Oliver was our server and was so friendly and helpful, he was such a lovely fella and gave recommendations for food and drinks. Although he was young Oliver seemed a total natural at his job and made sure everyone at our table was comfortable and happy. Would definitely go back.

Came with friends last Sunday, was served by a lovely young lad called olly, he was very polite and food was lovely

came in for a meal and it was lovely, made better by the service from your fabulous member of staff oliver, what an asset to your company.

Had a lovely Sunday dinner and the server olly was fantastic!

Great food and even better service from Oliver 😍

Great food, Olly was an exceptional member of staff

Stayed at the swan with work, was served by Tina for my breakfast,. Tina was very friendly and helpful and she made a lovely start to my day. Thx Tina

Very pleasant family lunch. Very well looked after by Tina. Hope to be back soon.

Nice place. Interior may be in need of renovation in the coming years, but not too bad. Food was decent. Service was also decent, but room for improvement. Staff were very pleasant but while some staff seemed rushed off their feet, others sauntered aimlessly, although this could mean that they were simply in training. After initially posting, I received a nice reply from Stephanie (GM) and so will definitely come again. It seems to me to be a business that is trying hard to improve.

Friendly and great service by Ollie

I've not been in the Swan for a very long time but I have to say it was absolutely lovely!!! Ellis who waited on our table could not do enough and made recommendations. I believe when exceptional service is provided praise should be given.We will certainly be returning. Thanks again.

Another amazing visit to The Swan such a lovely atmosphere with delicious food big mention to Tina who managed to fit us in desperate being busy, true customer service. Ps, Pork, Apple Terrine is to die for

We visit the swan quite regularly and cannot fault the service and food received every time, a special mention to Tina who always makes us feel welcome and that nothing is too much trouble. Brilliant customer service & atmosphere which keeps us coming back 😊 A recommendation greatly deserved x

Nice Sunday meal and good service from Ollie

We had a great roast dinner - Tina and her team were exceptional!

Great Sunday lunch. We didn’t book but were seated anyway. We asked Ollie for extra gravy and he was back with a steaming jug of extra gravy in a heartbeat. Great service, great food. Thanks Ollie and Swan

Ebony is great everytime I visit the Swan. Outstanding service and never fails to impress!!

Wonderful place to eat, food is always great, Tina is fantastic, very attentive.

Not alot of choice Bar top full of dirty glasses very vert slow to get service

Fantastic food with amazing flavours was very impressed.

Lovely meal, and great service!! Thanks Mia for the recommendations and excellent service!

Visited with the wife for lunch. It was very nice. Can't recommend the cod & chips and steak and ale pie enough. Massive portions. Tina was our waitress. She's very knowledgeable, smiley and made our experience just amazing. We definitely will return. Thank you.

Lovely roast, waiter Olly was friendly and professional

I’ve visited The Swan multiple times, and every time, Ebony has been an absolute star. She’s friendly, attentive, and always serves with a smile. Whether she’s behind the bar or waiting tables, she goes above and beyond to make sure customers are happy. Her warm and welcoming attitude makes the experience even better. It’s clear she takes pride in her work, and it shows in the great service she provides. She needs a pay rise! If you’re heading to The Swan, you’ll be in great hands with Ebony! Highly recommend.

Ebony was amazing and as always brings the fabulous to the swan 10/10

We celebrated my Dad's birthday on 13th March 2025. The food was excellent and the staff couldn't be more helpful and friendly. We would like to pass our particular thanks to Patrick who served us all evening. He was attentive, helpful and professional. Can't wait for our next visit.

Great place and we always feel welcome. Ebony is an absolute star and deserved a pay rise!

Was having a terrible week to be honest, than Ebony came a long and sung the best version of ‘I want to break free’ by Queen I’ve ever heard! Pint was excellent the atmosphere and vibe was great too, the day,week and months are saved! Will return again!

Amazing pub, EBONY really looked after us and made the evening extra special.

Great service from Tina. Who put up with our whit and sarcasm . Food fantastic and well served

Tina was a fabulous member of the team who was very professional friendly and made our time at the Swan a great experience .Thank you

We would've had a great time, but we were served cold uncooked food, it was a disaster, and the chicken strips were shoelaces.....We complained The staff were brilliant 👏 didn't pay for it so not a bad pub at all. Just didn't get to try the food 😒

Superbe and vast pub with lots of history? Nice food served by friendly staff in friendly atmosphere at reasonable prices. But best to book in advance as it gets busy

Delicious food, service great and staff friendly

New manager and food as good as always

Been in multiple times over the last couple of Sundays for a roast always great food and great service. The pub is stunning and always clean. Usually served by Oli

Meal at Swan on Sunday was lovely. Food was great made all the more special by a really nice lad serving us called Oliver. Great attitude, polite abd really helpful.

I visited the swan Sunday after noon as was served by Oliver who was a polite man who just made the meal more enjoyable will be returning, and recommend to be served by him, amazing service!! 😁

Visited the Swan with my sister for the first time today and it was absolutely amazing. The food was delicious (I had lasagne and my sister had the steak and ale pie followed by cheesecakes for dessert). The staff were so friendly and welcoming and couldn’t do enough for us (it did get quite full towards the end of our visit which meant we waited a little while for desserts but this was to be expected). The vibe of the pub is like a country cosy cottage and there is plenty of outdoor space for drinks in the summer. I will definitely be visiting a lot more in future, a hidden gem! 🙌🏻

A lovely end to our family day out, followed by an unreal turkey dinner which was 10/10. However the service was appalling, non existent of child friendliness from 1 waiter from the get go. We arrived and our table weren’t ready, which we went to the bar as directed and got drinks but with a 3 & 4 year wanting to sit at a table with their teddies, dolls etc waiters didn’t like it. We finally got seated, ordered and again 2 kids being kids mooching around, speaking to other couples in the restaurant doing no harm we was told if they could stay seated which we listened, we was placed in a square booth with with approx 6 tables and again we ate the girls both got up, we told them to stay near and this 1 waiter was sniffing around for problems, the girls got on a empty table after they had ate and was playing and again we was told ‘can you keep them seated as I’ve got to reset the table as they’ve sat on it’ I also wouldn’t feed my dog the chicken strips they were served with, but moral of the story and a little advice - don’t serve a children’s menu if you can’t tolerate kids being kids, kids in worlds of there own doing zero apart from speaking to the public.
