Only stopped for one drink but what a lovely pub and garden. A good amount of parking. The interior was old wood floors and beams and took me back years with fond memories of times past. Lovely. A huge garden area, accessible from the bar by quite a few steps. There may be other access points? The sun was shining and it was perfect. Two roads run by the side of the pub but any noise was only minor from both. Food is served but I didn't have any on this occasion. Service was with a smile and felt genuinely warm. If, in the area again, I would love to return. Would recommend, at the very least, a quick visit while passing or a longer one if in the area on a visit or holiday.

So pleased that we dropped into the Swan for a family early evening meal. If we’d left it later we wouldn’t have got a table - the pub filled quickly as soon as the evening kitchen opened. Extensive & reasonably-priced menu, excellent food, generous portions, efficient service and brilliant staff.

Served us yummy pub food despite the kitchen being closed - the lady offered this as we were struggling to find something for a large lunch on a Monday. We sat in their gorgeous garden on a hot summers day, and had the perfect ploughman's and a scampi and chips. Great little pub!

We popped for a drink after visiting the mysterious pyramid in nearby in Brightling. The Swan was very welcoming and we decided to have lunch. Everything was fresh and well-presented. It is clearly popular with local people who dropped in for a chat. The Harvey's was well kept too.

A great pub for food and ales. The sharing Camembert cheese dip was an excellent starter. Mains included skate fish, a lamb curry and steak. All were well prepared and flavoursome. Puddings were traditional pub choices like sticky toffee pudding , chocolate brownie and the like. Quite excellent. Great serving staff who were always pleasant. WORTH GOING. Pricing was around £16 for a main dish.

We are staying just down the road and we're looking for a nice local pub for a drink and some food, so we popped in on Friday evening. The first thing that we both noticed straight away, was how busy it was. This is not a criticism as it was so nice to see a full pub on a Friday night, with what was obviously lots of regulars having a drink or two. Very refreshing and everyone seemed to know each other. The landlady was very warm and friendly and we felt very welcome. They also loved our dog, Bert, but that's a gimme really, as he's so friendly. A few decent ales on tap but to be honest, the real star of the show was the food. A very decent menu offering at very fair prices. We both chose the steak and kidney pudding with chips and it did not disappoint. The crust was just like my Mum used to make and the filling, gorgeous steak, kidney and gravy, was from top to bottom. A full and stunning pud which we both enjoyed so much. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone and if we are local again, we'll be back

I called in to check out the menu as I had heard that they served venison, ordered a pint of lager and was charged £6.80 at those prices which are more expensive than most London pubs my interest in even looking at the menu stopped. I have passed this pub many times and thought it looked like a very traditional place which would be worth checking out and mentioned it to my friends but even at the Cooden Beach Hotel I did not pay nearly as much for the same pint of beer.

The food on this occasion was very average to poor the worst we ever had ,perhaps the chef had a day off as it was on a Tuesday lunch time and the cook didn't know what they were doing. We live locally and won't be returning and will be relaying this to our neighbours and contacts. Great shame and a dissapoinment on this visit.

Lively and cosy country pub. We visited on a Friday evening for food and the main bar area where we were seated was busy to begin with. Noticed a restaurant area which might have been better if attending here for a meal and not just drinks. Good food, and pricing not too bad. Thought the chicken wings were great. The bacon and brie beef burger was lacking something - i'd do away with the onion rings and add some cranberry sauce inside the burger instead. Otherwise an enjoyable visit.

The Swan Inn was just up the road from where we were staying for a short break. We booked a table for Monday night and were treated to a lovely reception by Trudy who looked after us all evening. The service was brilliant as was the food. So good in fact, we went back the following night to sample something different from the menu. We weren’t disappointed. Trudy was on hand again and started the birthday singing for my wife when the puds were brought out. If we’re ever in the area again, we’ll be back! Thanks!

There is always a friendly and relaxed atmosphere at the Swan. The food is exceptionally good especially the meat puddings which are just like my grandmother used to make.

We were not hounded to place our orders. The service was excellent. We were not hurried to eat our meal. In fact we did not leave until 3.45.

Gobsmacked by the positive reviews on here. Probably the worst pub meal of my life. All the ingredients (presumably) from the cheapest possible cash and carry. My “halloumi and mushroom” burger was made with some kind of chewy white substance that did not taste even 1% halloumi-like and then fried in a disgusting thick batter. The mushrooms were a couple of sodden slices hidden underneath. Chips utterly tasteless Really horrible meal. Only ate it because I was starving! On the plus side, the pub interior is nice, there is a beer garden out the back and the service was prompt and friendly.

Lovely old pub, everyone was raving on FB how good the Carvery is. Well what a disappointment, firstly I like an Ale plus to have a choice, there was only one option available. This surprised me with this pub that’s trying to keep tradition. The eating area was a little cramped to say the least but a lovely open fire going but can get a little warm if you are on the table directly in front of the fire. My partner had the beef/ venison carvery and there wasn’t much difference in taste, the roast potatoes were burnt, Yorkshire pudding was very soggy and the vegetables were overcooked. As for the gravy! I’m not sure what the ingredients were but it had a funny aftertaste twang to it, it wasn’t very nice. I had the beef/pork, again you couldn’t tell the difference in meats. My potatoes were not burnt but they were not crisp, just soft and soggy. My vegetables were again overcooked and the gravy had the same twangy taste. We didn’t have a dessert as we were put off. Overall a very disappointing experience and we won’t be returning.

Had been recommended this pub for a Sunday carvery but was disappointed. Potatoes burnt, Yorkshire pudding soggy, and strange tasting gravy. The staff were friendly but the restaurant part of the pub lacked atmosphere. It did have a decent looking menu though so perhaps there’s a better choice than the carvery. Poor choice of draught beers too - only Harvey’s! Sadly, don’t think I’d go back.

My first visit to the Swan Inn. Based my visit on previous reviews. Is fairly unassuming country pub from the outside. The decor and smoking area at the front don't do it any favours. Decent sized carpark, fairly flat access. Inside has a cozy, period feel. Friendly greeting and good service. Sat in the very pleasant large rear garden. Steps down to the garden but is a side access, I think without steps. Drinks selection was good, including a decent local real ale. The food was the surprise event. I ordered a chicken caesar salad. Often chicken is grilled to within an inch of its life. However this was soft and succulent and had probably been cooked with care, in a milk bath or similar. Fresh salad base. Altogether delicious. Price was good. All together a really nice lunch. Will definitely go back if in the area.

I've read a few not quite so favourable reviews recently - you can only report as you find, I understand that- so I thought I'd add this one from this evening. Four of us enjoyed a relaxing meal, at reasonable cost (ok, the desserts might be a smidge expensive, but they were nice); main courses of steak and kidney pud (which my friend thought was the best she had probably ever eaten out), giant haddock and chips, which really was pretty sizeable and lovely, Moroccan stew -very tasty with good sides, and belly pork (with which the mustard mash was a highlight) were well cooked and enjoyed by all. A new barrel of Harveys Best had just been tapped, and wine by the glass was good value and quality. Service was exemplary (yes, the pub wasn't that busy, but that doesn't always mean good service). We thoroughly enjoyed our evening - both members of front-of-house staff who looked after us (one apparently being very new) were delightful, and added to our enjoyment.

To be honest I had no real idea of what The Bell would be like when I booked it. The location was convenient for a function we were attending elsewhere. What a revelation, this place is amazing. You have to consider that the "project " is ongoing, but this doesn't impact on anything. The standards are great. Service, welcome and the whole experience was amazing. While entering the bedroom, the standard of which it had been decorated and furnished to was just way above what you could have expected. Only down side was that we were only staying the one night.
