The Swan in Milton Keynes

This was the first time we’d eaten here and it was almost flawless… our waitress, Katie, was amazing: attentive; chatty; informative; the exact opposite of what we experience from most waitresses of her young age. She was truly a breath of fresh air and her overall personality reflected directly on our impression of The Swan. The other staff wandering by took the time to smile, nod hello and just acknowledge us. It wasn’t needed but it was noticed. Such a rare experience in more or less every other establishment we’ve eaten at. The food was absolutely divine and really great value. They really know how to cook a Sunday roast; the beef was ‘melt in your mouth’ wonderful and that seafood linguine was spectacular. They know how to cook scallops. We sat next to the open fire and the warm glows and gentle heat really added to our cosy autumnal Sunday lunch… Woburn Sands is a beautiful place where us locals really do use our local facilities (use it or lose it) and the competition is high. But you will not be disappointed here. Wonderful staff (especially Katie… she’s destined for a great future…), absolutely delicious food and the cosiest, warmest, friendliest, convivial surrounding, ambiance and atmosphere for miles. I never give a 5/5 review because any establishment might just pull an unexpected rabbit out of the hat so where else can you go… but make no mistake, this place is awesome. AWESOME! Bon Appetite. 👍🏻

Beautiful pub, lovely roast on a Sunday. Really nice inside and staff are friendly. Good portion sizes and side options. Family friendly, nice place to go.

went for sunday lunch,restaurant was cold,however carried on ordered a roast at £19 it arrived luke warm.the beef was really nice but very bloody actually left a pool on the plate which put my wife off,need not have worried.most of the meal was cold or uneatable anyway no idea when the potatoes were originally cooked.how restaurants think that this is acceptable i really dont know.on the bright side the waitress was excellent as helpfull as she could be.you have been warned

I came in for an amazing black and red strip carling. The service from both Tracey and Harry were fantastic. Definitely will be back. Long live The Swan !!!

Great little pub! Great selection of drinks, food super tasty and the decor looks so nice and fresh! Decent prices too! We were served by Jonny who was so friendly and welcoming. We will deffo be back!

Popped in with friends today had a great lunch spicy pizza, perfect amount of heat for me! Harry and Evie did a great job for our table we will definitely be back!

Staff were amazingly accommodating especially Tracy when we visited. The cheese burger was great as was the chicken burger but when I asked for an extra topping of chicken on my pizza, it came separately in a mini frying pan. Not a topping is it.

Place is nice and clean. The food was absolutely perfect, delicious and fresh sea food and good some vegetarian options as well. Tracey was super nice to us and helped us to have a lovely birthday lunch!

We're local and we love the Swan. The service is always great (Johnny served us this time), the food was fab and the cocktails are delicious. Thanks so much.

The swan had a great atmosphere and our service by Evie and Harry was amazing, they were so attentive to our needs and were really helpful

Went for late lunch and drinks with a friend and had a delicious sea bass meal. Food much nicer now it's under new management. Even better we had a 50% voucher off for Mondays so obviously has to spend the savings on a lovely bottle of prosecco too 🍾

Excellent food and service. Went for lunch. Was really lovely. Highly recommend the pie. Excellent service from Tracey.

First time visiting, enjoyed our Saturday lunch, food very good & Tracey, who looked after us, was fantastic. Recommended.

Overall, we had a lovely time, the meal was great, good portions, staff were nice, attentive and friendly. The only hiccup was no broccoli within the side of green veg, which was, however, replaced by other vegetables - and the staff was apologetic when I pointed it out.

A wonderful evening. Great food. Great service. And our waitress Debbie, was first class. Highly recommended.

The service was amazing and the food was fantastic. Great atmosphere in the restaurant. We will definitely be returning.

My Husband and myself had a lovely Evening meal here. He had the lamb shank and I had the duck salad , both were lovely and well presented. Service by Debbie was also great ,

A great place to take our German Shepherd dog. Wonderful menu choice and food is delicious. Had a slight issue with a dessert today but the staff rectified straight away without hesitation which made for yet another memorable and lovely meal. We always enjoy our experience here and the food is great. Try the Apple and damson crumble, a must!

Be Cautions. Parking Scamming! Parked at Swan "easy parking". Entered the premised, didn't like atmosphere, went back to car. Received 100£ parking ticket from Euro Car Parks for 15min parking 🤮

Food was amazing and our waitress, Tracey, was brilliant. Very funny and attentive and made sure everything was ok. Will be returning again soon.

Excellent service from the best staff , Debbie and Talia, prompt polite service, all with a great welcoming smile.

Tracey was a great hostess without being overly pushy on sales. Would definitely return and ask if Tracey is on shift. Good was also very good and atmosphere was very nice by the open fire.

Delicious food. Tracey was our waitress and she was very lovely, warm and welcoming. She was always smiling and couldn't do enough to help us enjoy our afternoon. Thank you Tracey ❤️ & Team Swan

Won’t be visiting again in a hurry. Just received a parking ticket in the post for £100! I won’t be paying it either. I’m a Blue Badge holder and I think it’s absolute robbery for a local pub to be a pay and display! Avoid!

Friendly staff & enjoyable food. Occasionally other customers brought on a strong smell of cigarette smoke but they were also amiable.

Fabulous service and food! Recommend the set lunches. Nice atmosphere too. Tracey our waitress made us feel comfortable and great on choosing the perfect meal.

Met friends for lunch and we all enjoyed well prepared and presented meals and delicious desserts. Served by the lovely Tracey who coped well with my husbands terrible attempts at humour! Would definitely recommend!

Food was good, atmosphere was great and the staff were exceptional. Our waitress Debbie was amazing!

I had lunch with a friend. The staff were helpful and friendly. The food was beautifully presented, of excellent quality and much enjoyed. There would be 5 stars but the service was a little slow.

The food, drink and service was excellent - Natalie was friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend!

We had a lovely quiet table. Great food and ambience. Johnny was very friendly and efficient. A great evening.

Food was mediocre. Our waitress Debbie was great - really friendly and helpful but the food was not great

Lovely Lunch thank you, was a bit hot in the restaurant but understandable, would have liked more iced water and glasses on the table.

Probably one of the best pub meals I’ve had. Great service, interesting menu with exceptionally well cooked food served hot! Good service and ambience….. it was faultless. Thank you.

Had a lovely meal at the swan, a great pie and summer pavlova for dessert. A really interesting wine list with something for everyone

Had a cheeky spicy pizza back in March- Tracey sat us at the table and was super informative about the specials they had on! Our server Debs was lovely through and through! Will be coming back soon!

We’re local to Woburn Sands and had a couple of bad experiences with the Swan before so hadn’t been for a while. However, last night was brilliant. The food was great and the service was prompt and friendly. Good work!

The brunch was really great, tasty and a great selection. The service from Debbie was fantastic, very attentive. Recommend checking out the Swan for breakfast.
