We had a lovely lunch here yesterday. Found this gem of a country pub by chance. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Very nice traditional atmosphere, open fire, exposed beams, etc. great choice of beers and the food was delicious, fresh and seasonal ingredients. Dog friendly too. All in all a brilliant pub that is great for eating and with a good sized bar area great for having a pint or two. Highly recommended

We had not been to this pub for 9 years going back a lot had changed but it had been done sympathetically to the age of the pub. The food was amazing and the staff were excellent. Dog friendly and even the music was awesome classic rock from the 7o's we was in our element and will certainly be going back and recommending to friends

The venue is nice the water was very amenable and polite. My steak was inedible due to I believe being fried…. Sent it back expecting not to be charged however was with only a small amount removed. After arriving home and checking the receipt I Discovered that I was massively overcharged by doubling up on items and two additions that were nothing to do with our table. I asked for this to be rectified and to honest the bare minimum was refunded the steak was still charged and the same rate and the 10% service charge not accounted for. I would suggest anyone visiting needs to be very cautious about charging especially when it is sorted properly even after pointing it out. Shame really Could have been rectified with some basic customer focused response.

Thank you to all the staff who worked so hard to make out Christmas Day so perfect. The food was delicious and there was an abundance! It was a very cosy experience with the log burner creating a magical Christmas card scene. It was the best Christmas Day meal out that I've experienced and the staff were polite and attentive. 😋

Went for a Sunday lunch and it didn’t disappoint. Nice selection of starters on the menu, although afterwards we struggled to finish sharing platter of Sunday Roast. All food was fresh and delicious, everything was cooked perfectly. Very generous portions of starters too. Service/Staff is lovely and helpful. I’d recommend booking in advance, all tables were full! Definitely coming back.

First time eating at the Swan for a little while. But it was good, it has improved from a year ago. When I thought the food lacked a bit of seasoning. I had mussels followed by lamb and could not fault it. £6.50 for two scoops of ice cream is a bit steep, but I guess this is the norm nowadays. Looking forward to returning soon.

Heard about a brass band evening here, so even though I'm not a fan of brass bands per se, decided to go along and see what it was. Well, what an amazing evening. A very talented band provided entertainment in the cozy garden area and later inside the pub. We had pizza which was really good and refreshing beers. Maybe not the cheapest place, but the quality was worth it. Friendly helpful staff makes all the difference in my opinion. Will definitely go there again.

Delicious food and lovely waiting staff. We ate outside in the garden which was really beautiful and spacious We both ordered from the specials menu and as the dishes were new the chef asked the waiting staff for our views on the dish (which was delicious) so it's clear the kitchen cares about the quality of the food they put out

We appreciated the fact that we could take our dogs into the restaurant. It was quiet which made lunch even more relaxing. Our needs were accommodated very well. The food was interesting and delicious - we found the starters were more than enough for a light lunch but still treated ourselves to a shared cheeseboard to finish. Exceeded my expectations!

A lovely pub tucked away in the pretty village of Braybrook, a short driving distance from Market Harborough and about ten minutes from the A14. We visited for Sunday lunch and I must admit I did struggle to park as the small car park to the front was rammed . Food and service was excellent and the pub interior was a mixture of old and new. The roast dinner we had was thoroughly enjoyed and arrived piping hot. No complaints at all.

Wow, I have no other words to describe it, our first time here. The presentation of the sharing platter was amazing, chose two meats, everything was cooked to perfection, piping hot and no stinting on the portions, service was incredible, staff went above and beyond, desserts were just as amazing, quite honestly the best Sunday lunch we have had anywhere. Booked for two of us but fitted in 2 more adults and a child at short notice. Decor was lovely, could not find anything that wasn't first class, would definitely go back.

Eight of us ,two of them were children went for a Sunday lunch for my sons 21st birthday. The interior was lovely, very comfortable chairs and open fireplace, you could say very cosy. We got the drinks and ordered a food , after one hour of wait , waitress ask if we want more drinks ,we asked about the food, and she said it will come out soon. After another 30 minutes of wait , we checked with the staff again. The food was served and was cold , plates were not consistent and gravy had a specific non traditional flavour. Our frustration was obvious so the waitress offered us curtesy tea and coffee, by the way we had two children at the table. We were offered the cheapest drinks in the house to compensate their poor service. One more think we ordered desert and they missed one ordered by the younger child, he was not impressed. The staff were dismissive and non engaging, non came to check on us , there were running around , looked mess.

The venue and location are very nice however: Menu fairly small, maybe due to Christmas run up. Disappointing, haven't been for a long time. Dish we ordered wasn't available, felt bog standard steak and ale pie was over priced. Would very much like a lighter option. Such as sandwiches.

The pub is nice but the meal was a bit meh. "warm artisan bread" was cold and almost stale... The Christmas pie was nice but the chips were 5 mins after the pie. The pot of tea had barely half a cup and I had to ask for the milk by which time the tea was cold :(. We ordered a pudding but it didn't show up.... We gave up! And for 63 quid it seemed a bit pricey :( Staff were pleasant but over worked. Made nicer by lovely warm fire and live Christmas music from Playing Card Productions but wouldn't hurry back for a meal:(

Terrible customer service this time, with good food. Last month was excellent service and excellent food. Staff were slow and rude this time, never got desert but realise now they still charged us for it. 30 minute wait for starter, then 1 hour for main, then 20 minutes for ice cream that never arrived. Food and drink good overall

A proper hidden gem. Tucked away in Braybrooke, that Swan serves some serious recognition! A lovely, more traditional pub, with a great outside area. However, for me, the food is the reason for visiting. Met with a friend and had dinner, and it was amazing. The menu, whilst small, is packed with fantastic options and changes quite regularly. I'm certain I'll be back again! Staff were great, attentive, polite and friendly, just underlined a great experience! Thanks very much guys!

This was our first time visiting. I happened upon The Swan whilst searching for somewhere to go on google. When we arrived we were very pleased with what we saw. It is a beautiful place. A perfect mix of old & new decor. The old features of the building have been very professionally & respectfully complimented with a contemporary look. We were very quickly seated at a lovely table with very comfortable chairs. The menu was small. I like this, as I'd rather see a small menu of well prepared food, over a large menu of a lower quality. Unfortunately, on this occasion, all bar one fish dish was unavailable due to supply issues. In the current climate, I understand that. My wife doesn't like fish anyway, and I was more than happy to choose something else from the Summer Menu as it all sounded really good. Our order was taken for drinks first, & a few minutes later for the food. We ordered the pork croquettes & scotch egg for starters. The ploughman's and burger for main. We shared the starters. In my opinion, I have to say that the starters were quite possibly two of the best starters I've ever had. Especially the scotch egg. Beautiful. Our mains were also lovely. My wife couldn't finish her ploughman's, but she enjoyed every mouthful. All of the food was very well presented, & piping hot when it came to the table. My wife had a Coke & half a Tiger. She said that the Tiger was a little bland, but nothing worth complaining about. She used to run a pub, & keep a cellar so she knows her beers. Most people, including me, probably wouldn't have noticed any difference, but most of us aren't beer professionals. I had an American Pale Ale. It was cold, it was wet, it was refreshing. I liked it. If I'm to split hairs, the only minus was that we had to wait for a while for the bill. That's the only thing I can pick at, & that's no big deal. All of the staff were super friendly, & very well presented. We had a wonderful relaxing meal, and will definitely be returning.

They like to mug you off when it comes to their own offer of buy one get one free pizza so be careful when ordering from here such a shame cause the foods nice however had many of problems when it comes to what you’ve ordered from there as not received what we’ve paid for. One time had received a pepperoni pizza with one piece of pepperoni on it
