The White Swan in Leeds

Excellent food and service, great atmosphere definitely worth the visit today

Really nice Farmyard Burger tonight, served with lots of salad, coleslaw and fries. Definitely have this again. Washed down with Brixton Pale.

Thursday lunch, looking for food. No food avaliable. Only one customer unfortunate the gentleman behind the was very pleasant and the bar was a nice place. I suppose this is down to supermarkets selling alcohol at cheap prices.

Only had a few drinks out of the rain,2 kids running around the girl screaming etc drunk up and went wasnt for us

Lovely old pub . It had lovely sandwiches .

Loved this place! Thanks Jackie for the great conversation and bar service. Will be visiting again.

Always a welcoming atmosphere, great for all the sports and lovely bar staff.

This is a pleasant, traditional pub. Tye service was good as were our beers and the only thing that marred a pleasant visit was a group of workmen who had shocking manners, particularly one who thought it humorous to continually belch loudly with mouth wide open. I could suggest that such customers should be kept in check (or asked to leave) by the bar staff, but Scot that such action is well beyond the pay grade of ttr yong lady on duty.

Charlotte is an amazing lady who loves her job and is very welcoming x highly recommended

Wonderful night for my daughter's birthday. Staff couldn't have been more accommodating! Kids were welcome. Will definitely be back!

Lovely cask ale. Nice inside and a good amount of outdoor seating. Great for sports and friendly staff. A fantastic Otley pub 👍

Decent pint and friendly atmosphere

Traditional local with reasonable selection of beer.

Excellent beers and Sunday is Pork pie day! Lovely pint of Taylors Landlord!

Great pub, friendly staff. All the live sports. Dog friendly. Roaring fire in winter. Suits all ages.

Great ambiance good traditional inn

Great pub!! Just stopped in ....it was a real town pub! We really enjoyed our "chats" with the locals. Friendly and warm.

Great pub, we visited it Saturday evening. Unfortunately one of our group upset a local, thankfully all was sorted by the time we departed!!

Great local pub with lovely atmosphere. All staff really friendly serving fine cask ales. Sky/BT Sport to watch too

Nice atmosphere very friendly pub

Always a good pint and friendly place

Very good friendly old type pub no food just very good beer and staff.

I recommend here over the horrible otley tap house next door. This is a real friendly pub with a nice atmosphere

Amazing food! Lovely place , dog friendly Would recommend ❤️

Great atmosphere, good beer with a nice range of choice. Food was great, really fantastic chips. Had an enjoyable Sunday lunchtime

Good food, nice clean pub and nice bar staff. Great for families and for sports lovers too!

Had a day watching Otley rugby could not get served at the bar so walked into Otley never been in this pub so went in got a friendly welcome from the staff at the bar had a good selection of beers several hand pulled beers tried a few all very good.Good atmosphere in the pub well worth a visit.

Good range of real ales. Great locals and knowledgeable staff. Great real fire too.

Friendly staff and super local beers.

I like the White Swan. It has a good feel to it, well tidy, a good outside area, well kept beers and the folk there know what they are doing. It could well be the only pub (in the many) in Otley that has its own car park. Well worth popping in. We go weekly. Sound.

Good choice of real ales (4 if I remember correctly) plus keg/lagers. Busy, friendly boozer with laid-back ambience. Well worth a visit.

Brilliant staff great experience

Great atmosphere created by new owners. Good choice of drinks. Need to consider food offering.

Great beer , great service. Lovely place for a drink.

A pub with a real good atmosphere. Doggy friendly and always a good warm welcome, also great bar staff. Definitely worth a visit if you're in Otley or the surrounding area.

Beers and largers are all good on going to the ladies loo one of the toilet seats is taped up with masking tape surely they could replace it as it is not very hygienic and doesn't look good 😒

Great Verde and a traditional pub

Very friendly staff incredibly helpful lots of welcoming locals would certainly recommend and we are looking forward to visiting again

Enjoyed a nice pint and a choice of two dart boards to 'chuck a few arrows'. Managed a couple of 180's which is always nice!

Good quality beer, in friendly local atmosphere.

An excellent place, highly recommended

Good beers..nice friendly staff and customers!

Friendly atmosphere and real proper pub feel. Beer is always good and a good selection too. Staff are polite and welcoming as is the open fire.

Well kept beer and delightful bar staff

Only called in for drink, but the place would impress if you were trying to impress a date.

As a international cheese salesman I happen to frequent many taverns. I was warmly welcomed upon my arrival and served a hoppy delight upon request. Clean, great service, great beer what more do you need

Love the white swan Friendly staff Dog friendly pub Good prices

We popped in to see if food was being served but no it wasn't but we did notice the toilets were very dirty and main bar unkempt the staff quite arrogant but the beer was nice

A classic old fashioned drinking hole. Dog friendly. A short walk from the centre

Not sure why there are more reviews for here, we found he place very welcoming, lovely friendly service from the bar staff, would happily visit here again next time we visit, had a great atmosphere and if we lived in the area would make it our local.

The staff were ignorant. Very little that we asked for was available.

Good all round pub, really turned this place round just a little further and it will he five stars all day. The staff should be proud.

Aparecimos aquí ya que fue un día de calor y, aunque el interior era agradable y fresco, optamos para sentarse afuera en el patio cerrado en la parte trasera del pub donde había algo de sombra, así como el sol! El personal era muy acogedor y las bebidas justo lo que el doctor! Nos gusta mucho este pub!

Good clean pub, not the plastic modern type, helpful friendly staff.Worth visiting again for Black Sheep ale and the friendly welcome

A great pub, located just on the edge of Otley Town. 8 real ales to chose from, plus several largers, wines and spirits. With a large outdoor terrace area, highly recommended.

I bought a drink and then started playing a game of chess. They wouldn't let me finish the chess game unless I bought another drink. They were bad. They didn't even have the right chess pieces in the set.

Despite a sign outside advertising "Delicious Pub Grub" The White Swan no longer serves food. An enquiry about food to the barmaid when we entered the premises was greeted with a disinterested "We don't do food". Zero for customer service and the false advertising, but a score of 1 for seeming to have real ale on pump. Give this one a miss - the town is full of other pubs with polite staff and food on offer.

We found the food to be nice, and the people were really friendly. We were able to take the dog in with us. We didn't have to Waite long for the food to come.

...but it does seem like a mens' drinking pub by night, full of farmers and market traders. Nothing wrong with that, and there was a roaring fire to welcome us, but I had a glass of wine, (not very good), and there wasn't much choice..the beer may be better..

At short notice had to organise a meeting venue. Staff were very helpful but in the end the meeting was cancelled and the venue not needed.

My partner and I went to Otley for the weekend on the 30.05.14. We went to the White Swan for a meal in the evning to be told that they no longer do food. The barman used to be the chef. We did have a pint of really goofd real ale each. The barman was helpful in suggesting somewhere else to eat. Not a lot of choice as most of the pubs do not do food.

Popped in for their Saturday burger day. We didn't realise that it was two burgers and chips for £10, but what a bargain! The food was all freshly cooked, burger and chips were home made as opposed to shop bought. We know this mainly because the chef came out to chat to people, asking if everything was ok. Would definitely recommend. Planning on visiting again for try out the rest of the menu.

A friend recommended that we eat here for lunch, as the pub allows dogs. Our party of 2 adults, a 2 year old and 2 dogs were given a warm welcome and nothing was too much trouble. The food was very tasty and obviously home cooked, no microwaved gubbins. We had a couple of starters to share (I can definitely recommended the homemade spam fritters - delicious!) and the BBQ burger which was a special that day accompanied with some of the best chips I've ever tasted! The chef was more than happy to make something not on the menu for the youngest in our group. And the dogs were overjoyed at the attention from the bar staff! Overall a great visit for all us and will definitely return.

First impressions gave us a sense of welcome. On our visit we tried a couple of beers which were in excellent condition. There is a wide selection of real ales. We tried the food from a good menu selection where there is something for everyone from nibbles to a substantial meal. There is a real fire and the seating is well spaced. There is good parking to the rear. In conclusion this is a very friendly public house that deserves a visit. I'm sure you will enjoy your visit just as much as I did.

This was my first visit to eat at The White Swan and I was very impressed. All the food was delicious and good value for money. The 'real' chips are definitely worth going back for. Friendly bar staff and good service.

this was a lovely dining experience. The food was traditional pub food, obviously home cooked and really delicious and reasonably priced. The surroundings were pleasant and there is ample parking as it is walking distance from the town.

The White Swan, which was refurbished last year is a very pleasant pub close to the centre of Otley (3 minutes walk from the Market Place). They serve a good range of real ales which change regularly.All the food in this pub is obviously freshly cooked and of excellent quality. The beef and ale pie is the best pie I have ever tasted and the chips are addictive! Nothing tastes as though it has been frozen or microwaved. The service is good and the atmosphere is friendly. The Chef takes a personal interest in ensuring his customers are happy.
