Firstly all the staff are extremely helpful, kind and always look after their customers! The food is great, the drinks are great! By far the best place in Stafford for the service, Tina is always rushing around doing her very best for everyone! Highly recommend the swan!

This is the third time in just over a month that I have had Sunday Lunch/Roast at the Swan. Although a regular for coffee in the Coffee Shop (which is always perfect, served by Friendly, Efficient and Helpful Staff) I had not tried their Sunday Roast so wasn't sure what to expect. It was excellent, the first time I had beef, the second time, their Roast of the Day which was turkey and I had beef again yesterday. I like my beef 'well done' but so often it comes out dry and hard, definitely not the case at the Swan. It was first-rate and tasty, as was the turkey the previous time. Although on each occasion we didn't eat until late afternoon, everything was fresh and their range of vegetables superb plus cauliflower cheese all included, also roast potatoes and mash. Their gravy came separately, with the offer of extra for those that like to flood their plate. The Yorkshire Pudding was enormous and No I couldn't manage it all, even though it was fluffy and 'light'. The Perfect Sunday Lunch and great value. Although I didn't manage a dessert both my brother-in-law and sister-in-law had plenty to choose from. It wasn't just the food that was good, it was made even more special by the staff and the service. Well done all - I will be back, as will those who have visited with me each time. For those that don't do Sunday Roast, (although my husband had the Vegetarian Roast on my first visit and he was equally impressed), they also serve their usual menu as well. Will definitely visit again soon.

We came on a whim for a date night as haven't been for quite some time so thought we would give it a go. We usually only come for drinks. We had the 3 small plates, the bao bun, cheddar croquettes and the katsu. Were all very tasty especially thr bap bun and croquettes. For mains we both had the belly pork hanging kebab. The plates were huge and we struggled to finish. My pork was a little bit too much fat than meat, but then it is belly pork... So I get it. I had a cocktail which was thoroughly enjoyable and service was very good. Did not have to wait for anything and did try very hard to get us to have desert but we were ready to pop! Overall a lovely evening.

Where to start. The lady at the till was so rude, I was standing waiting to be served with no acknowledgement I was standing there waiting. When she finally wanted to serve me she said yep but I just politely just told her my order. She gave me a dirty glass with lipstick all around the top of the glass so I asked for a clean glass which she didn't seem happy about me asking for. She went into the back and I could hear them talking about me asking for a clean glass. The food was cold. My husband said his muffin for his eggs benedict was rock hard but he didn't want to complain because the staff were already rude and there was a long wait for the food. I asked for a slice of fried bread and paid for a slice of toast (£1.25) and when it came out it was only a half slice of fried bread. Which they did put right. The bottle of coke I had was flat. My husband's drink was nice. The food looks presentable unfortunately it was stone cold. Overall we won't recommend coming here for Breakfast and we most certainly won't be returning.

What a fantastic place-so relaxing. We had family up from Plymouth and went for a late lunch. Small plates, burger and club sandwiches, which were all fantastic. Service is great, very friendly and a great place for a catch-up. We'll definitely be back - especially as we spotted the roast dinner, but after we had ordered! Thanks to all at the Swan. 😁

Had brunch at just after 12. The ingredients seemed good, but bacon and sausage must have been leftovers from breakfast. Bacon was chewy (fork wouldn't go in) and sausage was crunchy. Yes, what I said, so dried out it was crunchy. Nothing wrong with the service, but fire whoever was in the kitchen and thought it was OK to send out food like that. My partners poached eggs were nice though.

The restaurant had a number of popular items missing and his was growing as the evening progressed. There appears to be a serious supply problem. The food was not very hot and must have been standing for a long time before being served. At the end of the meal we waited nearly 25 minutes to get the bill.I would not return in the near future due to these supply issues and food quality I did not consider it value for money.

Our party of 16 were in the main restaurant area , and enjoyed an excellent pre-booked main course meal. The food served was tasty and well-presented, and service friendly and efficient. Our tables were rather too close together, and the car park was very crowded. Nevertheless, we very much enjoyed the experience, having dined here previously in March 2023, and high standards had been maintained.

Sorry to say the food was not the best. The sprouts were so hard, i could not eat them. The stuffing wasn’t cooked either. I had to leave half of my meal because cranberry sauce had been spread all over the plate, I don’t like cranberry sauce. I personally shall not be eating there again. Very expensive and inedible.

I loved this place. The little cafe is where we ended up and had a lovely coffee and English style breakfast, both the original and vegan choice. The plates were nice too. Decent helpings and arrived in very good time, not much waiting. Really liked the little chocolates that came with the coffee too, very cute. The waitresses were lovely and friendly. Taking a stroll through the hotel area to the loo area was also nice and relaxing, nice decor with a cozy orangerie style vibe. The building itself is a lovely piece of history I guess, lots of character. Everywhere was very clean. I hope to visit again.

I don’t write reviews but feel compelled on this occasion as I’m so annoyed. Pre theatre visit on a Sunday … meal forty-five-minute wait, after asking where’s our meal it eventually turned up (no apologies or explanation). We then waited another ten minutes whilst the staff member toddled off to find knives and forks, when she returned she had to go off and find salt & pepper?? Flippin heck! It was as if they had never served a meal before! Can not use the excuse 'busy' as few customers in. Staff are more interested in talking about their social lives (in groups) than the customers. Meal was very disappointing, chicken breast? Smallest piece of chicken I’ve ever seen (what the?). We felt as if we were an inconvenience to the staff just by being there. The ironic thing is, when/if the manager and staff read this review they won’t have a clue how poor they are and how they are perceived by customers. We were not the only ones who seemed to be unimpressed. If the owners do have a staff training matrix I would suggest they review it. We will not be returning.

Visited The Swan for a couple of drinks with my partner, supposedly one of the more established venues in the town centre considering their prices. Left after first drink… firstly as soon as you walk in you’re hit with the pungent odour of fish. Walked up to the main bar to order drinks to be told this bar is closed go to the other quite bluntly. (Not the warmest of welcomes let me tell you) Ordered and collected our drinks and headed outside away from the smelly aroma inside. Arrived to their beer garden, every single table had dirt and debris on them. Walked around trying to find a clean table, failed. Went back inside to the bar to ask for our table to have a quick wipe to be told I’ll have to wait by a miserable young waitress. We only wanted a couple of drinks in a nice environment but left feeling we were an inconvenience. Will be absolutely avoiding and telling all I know to also. Used to be a lovely clean venue with great customer service. I understand most of hospitality venues are struggling with staffing levels but to be failing at the basic fundamentals, a welcoming customer service with a smile, clean tables and venue shouldn’t be the case. My opinion of the swan now.. nearing it to a care home for the elderly, the atmosphere, the smell, the dirt, the forlorn beer garden. Rotting away.

I stayed here for 2 nights in November and had a full meal on the first night and the food was really good although equally a good price. Portions were indeed a good size and I washed it down with a pint of their own blonde beer which was very acceptable indeed! The hotel part was fine and comfortable and I was comfy even in the single bed (as opposed to home which is just me in a double bed!). Tea / coffee making facilities in the room so again very homely and welcome after a long day.

I have been to the Swan a few times sometimes just for coffee and cake and others for social drink and dinning. However, since changing ownership I have had a couple of disappointing visits for food. Once a muffin was very dry but was quickly replaced but I think the most disappointing was the Tandoori Chicken Ciabatta. I was expecting for £8 home cooked hot tandoori chicken not unlike the type you are usually served as an Indian starter however, the chicken was cold and more like the plastic stuff you buy as sandwich meat in the supermarket. Maybe I was expecting to much but it was so disappointing!! I have since been for an evening meal and although the order was taken quite promptly (table of 10) it took nearly an hour to get our food which to be honest was not really worth the wait.

We visited the Swan for a second time, having enjoyed our first visit. The place was quite busy on a Saturday lunchtime but fortunately, we found a wonderful window table free. The menu suited us as we were looking for a substantial snack and we both chose jacket potatoes, mine with cheese, my partners with beans. They were both served with salad. The service was friendly and considering the time of day, timely.

Pre-booked a meal for 13 people for a family event. We all chose meals in advance and informed the restaurant and they even accommodated us when we asked if the soup could be tomato soup in order to please everybody!

Tonight I visited the Swan in Stafford with a friend for dinner and drinks. Our meal was superb. The food was delicious. However, what really stood out was the outstanding service we received from our waiter Alex. Alex was attentive, extremely polite and couldn’t do enough for us to ensure our time at The Swan was the absolute best it could be. He truly is an asset to your company. Many thanks. We will be visiting again very soon.

Excellent choice of cocktails quickly served by friendly bar staff. Good choice of dishes on the menu. The food was delicious, beautifully cooked and superbly presented. Laura, the waitress, was friendly and efficient and added to our experience. Would highly recommend the restaurant.

We called in at The Swan on our way north, having negotiated the maze of streets to find the car park. I understand the need for a pay and display system in the car park as it's so close to the crown centre. However the fee is deducted from the food bill. We found a table in the informal seating area, ordered our food and it arrived soon after, delivered by very pleasant staff. The food was good. We came away feeling that we'll return one day as we'd enjoyed the experience and been treated well.

We’ve eaten here a few times since moving to the Stafford area because the meal is always good and the restaurant run well. You know what you’re going to get, in decent surroundings and at a reasonable price.

A very hot day so the air conditioning was very welcome! Food was delicious and very well presented . Staff friendly and attentive . Tables are nicely spread so you don't feel squashed and the building is very tastefully decorated . Big well done to all involved , especially Laura our waitress .

Popped in for a light lunch and read my paper. I ordered an afternoon tea - which strangely enough they had to check in the kitchens to see if they could serve me something on the menu??? The service was first class as always and the afternoon tea was great - very tasty and plenty of it and free refills of tea or coffee - great!!! Much re - decorated since being taken over but looks good for it and it was nice before!

Second visit to the Brasserie since Coaching inns took over and I must say I was very impressed. The first visit was pretty unimpressive and bland but the team have definitely upped their game with this new menu.

You are not short of choice for coffee places on Stone’s high street, but there is no need to look further than BEAR. Contemporary, open environment with a wide selection of food and drink. There are items here that you will not find in other cafes, it is a treat to see. The coffee is fantastic quality, and the staff are always cheery and helpful.
