The Swan Inn Restaurant in Herefordshire, County of

My wife and I loved our stay here. The staff were all lovely and helpful. We would 100% recommend staying here.

Vegetarian options not so good sadly . Place vibrant and fun

Pleasant atmosphere but vegetarian options were not good

First time vist for us and thoroughly enjoyed our meal

The bartender was friendly and helpful when asking about food

They serve great food and incredibly delicious steaks. The service is very warm, courteous, funny, and unbeatable. Highly recommended.

Wonderful atmosphere and staff, food was sublime!

Location nice and central opposite Royal Oak Inn on Offa Dyke trail. Small, good room, good bed. Crooked floor :-). Otherwise fine.

Excellent food, great service and very friendly staff

We had a wonderful meal. The service was fantastic, absolutely loved our waiter. The steak and duck were extremely good and portions were ideal. We would definitely recommend.

Just lovely and were so considerate throughout also made me laugh great place

My family had an amazing meal on Wednesday 7th celebrating my 21st birthday. The food was absolutely incredible. I smashed out the tomahawk all to myself and had room for pudding, apparently the 1st female to attempt it solo. The service was incredible, Peter was making us laugh all night which was lovely unfortunately didn't get the bar staffs name. Will definitely be returning thats for sure. Highly recommend. It was just a lovely atmosphere

Great stop in the Swan Hotel. Really enjoyed the stay. Breakfast was really good along with the evening meal. Loads of great opertunities for a good walk in the vacinity as well. Staff were excellent and really helpful. I would definitely stop again.

Excellent friendly service,Pete and Alice made us feel so welcome. Pete always makes us laugh and smile.we had an amazing tomahawk steak to share. Really enjoyed our evening Looking forward to going again 😁

We ate here twice during our stay. I highly recommend the duck 👌

Service and staff were superb, would definitely recommend

Fantastic food with great service

This was my first time visiting here . Lovely bar and dining room , staff polite and attentive . I had the Swan Burger , it was the best meal I’ve had in a pub in a good while . Great value and very tasty

Thank you for the meal! The food was amazing, the service was amazing! The portions were big, couldn't eat all. Thank you! 5☆

Delicious food/pint in a historic pub

Visited for dinner as a group of 8 while visiting the area for a short break. Lovely pub and very friendly staff. Must mention Pete the waiter as kids thought he was a goat waiter (Greatest Of All Time). He was very entertaining and worked hard as the restaurant was busy. Food was excellent especially the items we had from the specials board. Steak was great along with the Swan burger. Tomahawk was great value and very tasty. Recommend a visit if in the area

Best night sleep in a while,the safe were great and the food was amazing

Absolutely outstanding meal. We had the tomahawk which we highly reccomend, so tasty and cooked to perfection. Our waiter Pete was absolutely fabulous, made our night. We had such a lovely time thank you 🤩

Lovely meal, food excellent and service was brilliant, always a smile.

This hotel was a fantastic place to stay. It was absolutely spotless and the service from all the staff we encountered was second to none … very friendly, yet very professional. The meals were delicious. Can highly recommend the Swan Hotel for accommodation, meals and service. Thank you!!

Great accommodation and service, lovely food, would highly recommend.

Friendly staff. Amazing food. Comfortable clean room.

Fantastic place great accommodation lovely warm welcome from all the staff , amazing home cooked food , definitely will be going back for a break. 😊

Delicious Sunday Carvery for only £12. Choice of 3 tender meats or combination of all, Yorkshire pudding, stuffing ball and pigs in blankets and then help yourself to the rest. Delightful desserts and the most cheerful and helpful staff I've come across in a long time. Beautiful hotel and the drinks were more reasonable than I'd usually expect in such an establishment. 10 different draft beers/lagers/ciders which is more than I've ever seen under 1 roof before. Just enough parking on the square to the side of the pub when we visited. We'll be back.

Saturday breakfast. Beautifully cooked tasty spread. The 'Swan' = 2x sausage, 2x bacon, black pudding, fried egg, beans, mushroom, tomato, 2x toast. Nice Bloody Mary too! Friendly welcome, roaring fire, sports on TV. Dog and child friendly. In centre of Kington so good for walkers too. Will definitely come back.

Amazing food! Fantastic service! Pete was outstanding and really looked after us, Will definitely be back! Thanks again

Delicious! Pete was very welcoming and we will definitely be back.

We visited here for dinner on Friday 7th February and our daughter and husband went the evening before. The welcome we received was outstanding. Such energy, enthusiasm and quick repartee .... It was wonderful! The bar/restaurant were cosy and we were particularly drawn to the armchairs in front of the roaring fire which was very welcome on a chilly evening. The food was delicious and the portions were very generous. I only regret not having space for a dessert! If we are ever back in that neck of the woods we will not hesitate to return.

Great atmosphere, cozy fires, comfortable seating, and friendly bar staff, and the food was excellent. We will be returning. The steak and ale pie was made that morning, and the pizza was wood-fired and delicious! The locals seemed to enjoy the food too and are regulars to the dining room.

If you haven't been I ask why not ? Absolutely amazing.

Came over from Australia to find a place to live and out of all my travels through England the service and meal was by far the best I have had. Outstanding. So tender and delicious will definitely be back for more

Fabulous steaks, cosy atmosphere, excellent service.

Lovely pub with 2 log burners, plenty of seating. Dog friendly, large beer garden and events throughout the year. Good food, staff and service

Lovely Sunday carvery today. Staff lush, friendly atmosphere 😍 and really accommodating with our 8 month old. Really happy with the service, more then happy to travel back again!

Wonderful meal and great service!

Lovely Sunday carvery lunch for 19 of us. Great food, friendly staff and dog friendly!

Great food and service for a large party of 19 people for Sunday lunch . Great value for money .

Excellent meal and service tonight. The lamb shank was delicious. Thank you. Happy New Year to all at The Swan..

Lovely evening in a pub with a good atmosphere. Good food, friendly staff and good value.

Great atmosphere, food exceptional, staff very, very friendly & obliging. Have visited here for over 30 years, was friends with old owners. The owners now have done an exceptional job, keeping up with old traditions & new. Totally recommend 100% anyone & everyone to visit xx 👍 My 13 year old grandson loves their fillet steak & peppercorn sauce.

First time going, had a wonderful experience. Amazing service, lovely atmosphere and fantastic food. Would very happily go back

Delicious food, very friendly, helpful and personable staff. Will definitely be back.

Well no complaints food excellent staff pleasant service excellent 👌

Peter was an absolute delight. Food was delicious and reasonably priced.

Great meal with great service. Excellent service from Pete, very friendly, chatty and funny. Lovely pub, highly recommended!

We've not been here for a while but had a really good light lunch of jacket potato with chicken curry. Delicious. Log fire and conversation from locals gave a really welcome feeling. Will definitely return, especially for steak, cod and chips and steak pie. They sound wonderful.

Very good steak as usual good team excellent thank you be there again

Rarely do we give 5 stars but having dinner at The Swan Hotel was a 5 star experience for us!! The service was so friendly, positive and engaging and the food was absolutely delicious, home made and hearty. We shared a melted camenbert to start, I had the Mediterranean Tart for main (with added home made onion rings that were not part of the dish but we're given and not charged for) while my boyfriend had a steak with mustard sauce. We topped it off with biscoff cheesecake 😋. The food was plentiful, great atmosphere and lovely service. To top it off we thought it was very reasonably priced, three courses and a drink each for under £75.

Delicious food and great service, as always! Peter always brings a smile to our faces! Highly recommend a visit!

Warm and friendly welcome! Nice beer and the food is very good, well presented. Clean premised, all good! Will return and recommend.

Very pleasant evening last week in our local - this time we had dinner rather than just drinks. Three courses were all very tasty and filling - nicely presented too. Although it was busy, the service was friendly, helpful and considerate. Good value for two three course meals and drinks. I would definitely recommend!

Fantastic friendly staff, the food was outstanding, and a very comfortable nights stay.

Relaxing restaurant that serves in my opinion the best food in Kinsdon.

What a steak diner. Totally best pub steak i have had in years. Shame the Wye Valley Ale ran out though.

What more could you want on a cold, wet Sunday afternoon than a lovely roast dinner with a warm welcome. Great food and service, we'll definitely be back.

Had Sunday carvery today for the first time and very nice indeed. All foods and meat were cooked very nice indeed lovely big Yorkshire pudding. Will definitely be back Thanks all

Lovely food with amazing service. Our waiter was really busy tonight but still paid everyone attention and had a laugh and joke. Thank you!

What a fantastic place to eat and drink. Food was amazing, staff were lovely and friendly and a wonderful selection of beer and ales. Will definitely be coming back. Thank you guys!

Fabulous place we found, service was amazing wanted for nothing and nothing was too much trouble. Great banter as well with the crew. Mixture of pizza, steak, lamb and the specials ate along with pudding and vast amount of booze and soft drinks between the 5 of us. Would 100% recommend and would return if in the area again. Thank you, Katie and the monster truck crew

Excellent food, great selection of beer. Lively atmosphere and clean and tidy rooms at excellent value, been here a few times now and doesn't disappoint.

One of the best pub meals I have had for a long time. Prompt and courteous service, friendly atmosphere, our dog made most welcome.

Great food, great service, great price!

Lovely friendly pub with good food, perfect for a refuel after a long walk.

Went here for a family Sunday lunch the staff were great and the food was superb, will definitely go back again .. 5 stars from the Evans & McCabe family..

Fitted us in when fully booked on steak night...beautiful food and excellent service as usual.

This is an update from the original review below to respond to the owners comment. The following words are a direct quote from the hotel e mail to me on the 11 June when they cancelled my dinner booking for the first week in July .... "Yes it is correct I’m afraid, our kitchen is closed all week due to the chef being on holiday and being short staffed, we can’t find any cover to do evening meals. We do apologies for this". Perfectly located if you're doing the Offas Dyke walk. Clean and comfortable room, friendly staff. Only downside was they weren't doing evening meals due to staff shortages, so went to the Burton Hotel which was fine.

Excellent Restaurant, amazing food, Bar was very nice and pleasant staff. Great atmosphere, will be returning 😀

Really good restaurant. Great beer garden.

Nice enough, but like a lot of places, no cooking on a Monday night

Went for a meal at 6.45 we were seated and served by 7pm. Home just after 8. Fantastic service from our lovely waitress thank you We've been many times before but tonight was superb 👌

Lovely afternoon served by the lovely Alice, great food service and not to mention the beer, thanks for accomidating us..lovely as always...thanks to the all

Lovely historical pub, friendly staff. The only thing that let it down slightly was a bit of a communication issue - the waitress didn’t seem to have been updated on items that were sold out by the kitchen. Otherwise thoroughly enjoyed my steak and cider. You get a free drink with your meal on steak night apparently, which is a nice touch 🙂

Really nice pub with rooms above. Breakfast was excellent!

Loved it, good food and a lovely waitress

Truly, with no exaggeration, one of the best steaks I've ever had! Cannot fault the food or the service! Bed was incredibly comfy too! I stayed for work but I am planning to return for a holiday based on how good the food and room was! My only slight negative is that we couldn't have a hot breakfast, breakfast started at 0800 (I think off the top of my head) which felt quite late

Coffee is unbearable. Cold and from a machine the staff are rude, not a place if you are expecting a decent coffee. The bear on tap is poor.. I could not comment on the food…

i went to dis restarant yesterday and they tell me i have to leave becaus of me religion and ethnicity, very rude woman talk to me and tell me she don’t like me, i had me food thrown in me face and got thrown out by de rude rude woman, would not bludclat recommend

Right in the heart of picturesque Kington, the Swan Hotel is a friendly welcoming place and the perfect combination of traditional country pub and modern hotel. The room was clean, airy and luxurious. The beds are very comfortable, and at £100 per night for a double, not unreasonably priced. The food was absolutely delicious, of a high quality and was generously sized portions, again for a very reasonable price. The selection of beers was very good, all of which were well kept and delicious. The included breakfast was a bonus that I'd missed on the initial booking, using quality and presumably local, ingredients. The staff were exceptionally friendly, welcoming and accommodating. I will inevitably find myself in the area again and when I do, I can't wait to stay again!

The food is stunning all home made tasty as my mother used to make. And the staff are top notch friendly and chatty. Highly recomended

The Swan is a brilliant country pub with a great atmosphere. The menu caters for most tastes and budgets, and the bar is likewise. They have five comfortable rooms for those who need to stay the night. Easily one of the most comfortable hotel stays I've had this year, (and I've had a few)

Excellent experience, loved it.

No food was available during the Thursday at all when they said from 12 to 15.00 what a joke

Good pub. Only one in the town that appear to show any sports. Good modern decor and good selection of beers and snacks. Do check food opening times as on the door it says lunch until 2pm and we arrived at 1.40 and told the kitchen was closed

Always a good choice on the A44 route to and from the Midlands, or a trip to Hereford. Good food, friendly staff and a nice clientele. Dogs allowed, and a good range of drinks. Our favourite place in Kington. We use them whenever we visit Kington- impeccable service, nice food and drinks and a good social atmosphere.

Gone up from last visit last year as I expected ,portions have gone down though not expected.

Good Sunday cavery. Well kept beers Good atmosphere. We had meal for group of 10

We have had a fantastic time staying at The Swan Hotel. Luke & Casey have been outstanding as always, they go the extra mile. Fabulous food, hospitality and accommodation! Highly recommend The Swan Burger. The Swan is a 10/10.

Brilliant stay. Management so kind. Excellent breakfast. And great price. Highly recommended.

Great food, amazing service from our waiter

Perfectly adequate accommodation for a 2 night working trip. Room was simple but comfortable. Staff were friendly and professional. Breakfast was great, and their coffee machine is fantastic! Will stay here again.

Great staff, and pub environment.

Good food and service. Staff helpful and friendly.

Lovely staff and great food every time i go

Extremely fresh and prepared food. Clean and welcoming Grate options

Great choice of vegetarian meals, friendly staff
