Swan inn in Herefordshire, County of

Good, pub food and a very welcome at this pub. A good selection too, which is nice. Not over priced and the staff are just lovely.

Last minute booking to avoid the mother in law cooking on New Year’s Day! All five of us from 80-8 had a great meal. The pies were excellent, the puddings were good. Staff/owners were excellent. It’s a small detail but when the barman remembers the child’s name and engages with them it makes it such a relaxed family environment. Will be back

Went on a Monday night to celebrate husband's birthday. Just me, hubby and daughter. I had the horseshoe gammon, very tasty, eggs cooked perfectly, lovely buttery field mushroom, daughter had the homemade burger, she changed the chunky chips for skin on fries, delicious. Hubby tried the Freeranger pie with seasonal veg chunky chips and gravy, he was a bit dubious because he's fussy about pastry but he thoroughly enjoyed it. Daughter had choc fudge cake with ice cream and I had the toffee sundae. Waddled back home, stuffed. Too busy eating to take pics. Looking forward to going back, next time I'm trying a pie.

Aqua Xmas party What a delight & a fantastic evening had by us all 18 very satisfied friends Food was plentiful & exceptional Staff were very attentive Special mention to Clare the chef Adam & Kyle who made great Santa's Well, worth a visit Fully recommend The Swan Well done team 👏

Excellent food,superb service and very good value for a Xmas meal, really recommended for eating out, we will be returning.e

We pre-booked and were offered drinks on our arrival. Very pleasant staff who served us with a smile. I chose the Horseshoe Gammon and Poppy went for the Moo & Blue (steak and stilton pie). Food took about 40 minutes from order to delivery but we were in no rush. Both meals were wonderful with Poppy saying that it was the best pie she had ever eaten in a pub setting. Without a doubt we will be back.

What a super little pub, right on our doorstep! I do wish we visited earlier. Loved the traditional atmosphere. Staff were really friendly and welcoming and the food was delicious! All three essentials for a good pub ticked. We had a pie each off the pie menu. They were very tasty, as were the perfectly cooked (fresh, not over-boiled) seasonal vegetables and skin on fries. Our plates were polished. All three of us really enjoyed our evening. Next time we'll bring our dog too now that we know you're dog friendly!

Food was ok, nothing different . The guy serving us was great and welcoming. Found the inside of the pub dated and needs a good clean. Lots of webs, table and menu had stains and was sticky.

Had a lovely recent visit here, I myself have never been before but I’ll certainly be making an effort to return. Very reasonably priced, and more importantly the food was definitely worth the money. As a table of four we had the house curry (delicious and very generous portion!) two gammon meals and one Pieminster pie with two sides. We also all had desserts, which again were absolutely delicious. The staff were really attentive and you really couldn’t ask for much more! I would say if you’re on the fence, definitely give this place a visit. Such a lovely atmosphere and it really feels like the staff care and want to make this a successful place - which I’ve no doubt it will be!

Great steak, cooked exactly how we wanted it to be. Will visit again

Lovely old-fashioned pub, good food and friendly staff. The pie was amazing. I will definitely go there again.

The Sunday dinner we had today was spot on and very good value. Would highly recommend and will definitely go back again. Staff were very welcoming and couldn't do enough for you . Great pub and good location.

Had lunch here on a Wednesday with another couple and it was excellent. Incredible value for money for 2 courses (we would have happily paid more), we were well looked after by the front-of-house manager and the food was perfectly cooked with generous portions. The pub is very traditional, spacious and has ample, safe car parking. We will definitely go back.

We have been to the Swan 3 times in a week, excellent home made food, great portions and prices. A warm and friendly welcome makes the overall experience fantastic. You are shown to your table, orders taken for drinks and food separately and everything delivered with a smile. Well done to all at the Swan - You have it spot on - don't change a thing!!

Tasty burger, steak looked really nice. Only gripe I have is when asked if the desserts were home made, front of house asked chef, came back with the reply yes. I've worked in the industry for 40 years and I spot the difference 300 ft away before it's even reached the table.!!!

We the old farts decided to go to The Swan for our weekly lunch trip two of us had moo and blue pie very nice the jug of gravy that comes with it is really nice the other old fart had hunters chicken he said that was very nice we will definitely be back

Really enjoyable meal and a great range of pies. Friendly staff too

Staff was awesome! People serving carvery was lovely. However the roast dinner (carvery) was so bad! The only word I can describe it is it was awful. Burnt Yorkshire pudding which should not of been served! Skin on carrots,I mean who likes that. Lack of food given as it’s a served carvery not one you choose the meat and then help yourself to veg and stuff after. When they asked us do we want pudding we was like no thanks as the main put us well off. Had to go to KFC after as I was starving. Such a shame coz the staff was lovely and it’s a cozy pub and I feel embarrassed coz it was for my mums birthday meal and we paid a ridiculous amount for disgusting food.

Food amazing staff friendly and very helpful. Had sirloin steak, steak kidney pie, fish platter all lovely.

Great warm welcome friendly staff food was delicious good price I would highly recommend you try it and even better dogs are welcome will definitely be back with our dog next time thank you

Just back home from having an excellent lunch at The Swan. Excellent food fantastic service . I would highly recommend the food at The Swan to everyone.

Had the most amazing pie and mash for lunch at the Swan Hereford. Kyle was really helpful with the menu choices and the beer was a really good pint. Will be back and recommend to anyone in the area to visit

Had veg lasagne was disgusting £14 was a frozen slop from a supermarket ,rest of the party had pies which was OK on mash (not home made ) child had sausage and chips ( burnt sausage) won't be going back

This was our first visit to the Swan since its new ownership, we met friends here for lunch, on a Wednesday. There was a good choice on the menu. We ordered gammon, lasagna and Hunters chicken. Initially we thought the service was fairly slow but when the meals arrived they were worth the wait as they were all freshly cooked and looked appealing. All of us agreed after eating the food was excellent and we were happy with the prices. We were too full to eat puddings! Please give this place a try. There is plenty of car parking and the staff were very welcoming and friendly. There is a good range of food and if our meals were to go by, really delicious.

Luke warm over cooked veg not good for the money will not be back

The steak was excellent—tender, flavourful, and a great value for the price. Service was also top-notch, with attentive and friendly staff. My only minor critique would be that with such high-quality steak, a more curated wine selection could elevate the experience even further. Nevertheless, I’ll definitely be returning!

Excellent food service and surrounding nice warm friendly, Steak Ale pie was a winner. Everything was cooked well. High recommend.

Amazing food had the steak the best I ever had first class food and service thank you

Went for a evening meal, 4of us, daughter wanted curry but they had sold out, no lasagne, no burgers no pie although they advertise being a pie and steak pub advertising a good choice of pies and bestbof all they had run out of vinegar surely buy it in bottles and keep a stock unlikely to visit again.

Shocking food, my child could have cooked better. Filthy tables, floors, windows ( could hardly see out ) toilets, utter filth, goodness knows when they were cleaned last, no toilet roll or hand wash. Very expensive for very poor quality food that was obviously microwaved, dry, very bad quality all round. The wait for the food was ridiculous, chef was too busy sitting outside with drinkers all smoking. never return.

Very good pub with unusual meals which are very good.plus staff very good- nice to go to.

Fabulous birthday meal family of 4 mixed grill,2 rump steaks,chichen tikka masala could not fault anything 5⭐️ Steaks melt in Yr mouth 😋

Lovely welcome by the Landlord, however it took an absolute age to get our order in & then another wait to find out they were out of ham (it was 1pm on a Wednesday??). Anyway we ordered sausage egg & chips instead, which again took an age, even though the pub was quiet. Although it tasted ok, it looked like a kids meal! Pretty disappointed. No vegan options, limited vegetarian. The lunch menu was a bit 1980s tbh. Toilets didn’t look like they’d had a decent clean for weeks & had no toilet roll or soap in the ladies. Certainly wouldn’t go there again for food.

Visited with two others at lunchtime on a july wednesday and were apparently the only customers .Food quality was ok but not particularly cheap.I think the place may have changed hands recently and the big plus was that staff were extremely helpful and welcoming so all things considered would recommend

Visited Hereford for a weekend trip and booked a table over the phone, ahead of time, for Sunday lunch at 3pm. Opening times unclear across FB & Google. Booking was taken, no issues. Arrived and the place was deserted. We were seated nonetheless but deduced they must be closing soon. Roast was a tiny, sad, carvery affair. ‘Cheesy’ leek consisted of thin water and flour mixture who forgot to invite cheddar to the party. Food tasted like it had never even heard of salt or seasoning, nevermind encountered it. Over-boiled carrots slumped sadly on our plates, begging for the end to come. And how one can mess up the humble potato to that extent was simply astounding. The only thing vaguely suggesting seasoning was the stuffing, which is just as well, as it likely came from a packet. The food had clearly been sat there for hours, marinading in its own despair. We looked forward to this as a weekend treat but left sorely disappointed. At £40+ for two people, it wasn’t just the food leaving a bitter taste. If you’d have just told us you were closing, or that we’d be thrown the sorry dregs of your remaining roast (heat lamps were turned off and bartender clocked off shortly after we arrived), we’d have happily gone elsewhere. In fact, we drove to Bunch of Carrots for dessert, in an attempt to salvage the remains of our Sunday, and almost cried when we saw their beautiful carvery on show. Never again.

Very friendly, welcoming and accomodating. We only had drinks so cannot comment on food. They even brought us a fresh bowl of water for our dog.

Brilliant food, amazing staff, will definitely be coming a lot, very accommodating for gluten free

Good food Well looked after

Been for Sunday lunch a few times and it has been very good. Everyone there very helpful. Thank you

Came in for a nice Sunday roast. Staff were very friendly and the place its self has a really nice rustic “family run / non-corporate” feel, which was lovely! The roast was delicious, only thing that let it down was the lack of broccoli, but that of course is personal preference. Really nice place would recommend!

Great food, great atmosphere, good service and a lovely welcome by the landlord. An extensive overall menu but as alternative a smaller lunchtime menu.

Went for lunch! Fabulous food! Good service! Friendly atmosphere! Highly recommended!

Friendly staff,, really good service,, really good food,, couldn't say anything bad about it at all

Fabulous birthday meal family of 4 mixed grill,2 rump steaks,chichen tikka masala could not fault anything 5⭐️ Steaks melt in Yr mouth 😋

Absolutely fantastic food 😋 starter platter for 2 Main meal 1 mixed grill,1 steak The steaks where cooked to perfection medium rare very tasty and tender Puddings Apple pie with Ice cream,sticky toffee pudding with cream the puds are home cooked and lush best apple pie I've had plenty of filling and the pastry really buttery

Good meal service is brilliant and friendly. Nothing is too much trouble

Excellent food service and surroundings really warm and friendly pub. Had the best beef madras I’ve ever had! Would recommend The Swan without reservation lovely atmosphere cosy and welcoming

Excellent food and you have to try their Sunday roast beef. It is so so good. Thursday night Steak with my Uncle and a nice long chat is fab and the staff look after him so well. Thanks guys for doing this.

This was our first time here. It's an attractive, spacious pub with an interesting menu with several specials. We enjoyed our meals and a couple of pints of Banks's. A friendly, genial host. We'll be going again.

thoroughly enjoyed our sunday lunch here today, food was perfect and the staff were very friendly. would definitley recommend this place and we will be back

Beautiful atmosphere great food definitely go again

Basic food, probably a little overpriced.

I have never been in this place so please explain how I am supposed to be able to give you feedback is there a con going on !!! Please explain.

Another great meal at the Swan, lovely and friendly staff and amazing food:)

Very nice. Old type of building, good service and nice staff

Excellent food excellent service

Love the Swan Inn. Food always very good as is prices. Good friendly service in a nice atmosphere.

Such a great pub, lovely food, great value. Had a steak here and the quality and portion was fab. Great roast too. Actually, the lovely landlord gave us a lot to the station when cab numbers turned out to be busy, such a great experience, will not forget, thanks guys!

First Class service,,and a First Class Meal see

Food great. Friendly.. Shame so dark and dingy. Looks like smoking was banned only last week. Tobacco coloured walls

We had a delightful evening. Good host, good food at a reasonable price (and one of us was a happy vegetarian with great choice). Look forward to our next visit

What a lovely pub, staff very attentative, looked after all our needs, food was amazing, well done the swan

We had a lovely meal, all freshly cooked. We had to wait a while as a large table was in, but this was explained at booking so I knew this would be the case. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, you couldn’t ask for nicer and friendlier service. Our food came out hot and fresh, we really enjoyed the relaxed feel of the pub, no loud drinkers or music.. was just what we needed and wanted. We Will absolutely be visiting again!

Lovely friendly staff, great place to stop on the way back from Wales.

Booked a table for myself, my partner and her parents. Absolutely loved our food, drinks and atmosphere. Linda and her team are simply amazing and everyone highly recommends Linda's cooking. All cooked to perfection, served in organised timely manner and our service was exceptional. I doubt that anyone can find anything negative with regards to exceptional dedication to professional standards second to none. Thank you so much Linda x We will be back soon!

Had a meal last night with two friends, and I couldn't fault the place. Lovely little pub,very friendly staff,atmosphere was great, and the food was excellent. I had the bass fishcakes and they were beautiful. The price of all three meals was very reasonable. I would Highly Recommend this pub. Many thanks, Alan.

Stumbled across this lovely pub while doing a delivery in Hereford. What an absolute delight! Lovely friendly staff, good selection and delicious food!!

Nice quiet place to have a meal, the food is really nice and it is a really nice pub with friendly staff and a good atmosphere

Great place to eat and friendly staff will definitely go there again

Disappointed that they didn't have what was on the menu, we settled for rump steak and it was tough and chewy

Gorgeous food and really lovely staff

Unpretentious pub with good beer and relatively cheap meals. Standard pub grub.

Excellent food, environment, prices and service

It was a beautiful meal which was complemented by the charming staff.

Very good home cooked food. Nice selection of bear/cider

Held my daughters baby reveal here today amazing food, catered for what I wanted staff excellent and such a lovely place thank you

Boxing day meal for 11 . Very disappointed. We ordered the food before we arrived but they did not bother to check our email consequently couldn't have the meal I wanted. No Christmas atmosphere . Never will any of us go there again. Not a family treat we wanted. So disappointed No stars from us

We had our fathers wake at the Sawn Inn last week. From the start at short notice and a week before Christmas. From manager to all staff so sensitive considerate helpful and friendly and the food was fantastic. Thank you so so kuch

Wow what can I say. Table was set up lovely with crackers and the christmas dinner was supperb , start main and pudding all for set price and loads of it, highly recommend. Friendly staff. (Sorry forgot to take pictures of starter's but they were great) left well stuffed.

Great pub & great food, staff were very friendly

Cracking little pub, food is simple but excellent, so much choice and very well cooked and served. Well worth a visit

Had an excellent midday meal, cooked by Craig & served by Liam, as usual. Highly recommended for quality of food & company too 😊👍

Visited last week with a couple of friends, we all had different meals and the general consensus was how clean the premises were, how polite the staff were and the food was very nice and at reasonable prices. Quite a selection of good pub grub which was cooked and presented well. Will probably return when in the area.

Nice quiet pub. Great food always a nice welcome.

To start this best inn because it is a transitional inn with very good food and drinks. The food is very good quality. There is good atmosphere. The prices are very good. They gone all out of way because there was ten of us for Sunday lunch . The food hot and lot for your money I like to say thank you from the Eckleys We will be back soon

Thanks to the wonderful team here, we had a lovely birthday celebration for my Dad's 90th, enjoying home cooked meals, as usual. Keep up the great work, Craig. Highly recommended

Great little pub, staff were fab and food was great.

Been many times but not recently, so went with whole family.. Meals were all lovely, place is really friendly, will go back soon.

We had a brilliant meal here. We'll cooked and not too long to wait. The owner was so kind, and the staff very friendly. We'll be back!! Phil & Carol 🥰🥰

Wonderful meal with fantastic customer service. Lovely gardens top.

Great food and beer and very reasonable price. Very friendly staff.

A beautiful pub with good food - Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Sunday lunch is well worth trying - Significant car park spaces, with level ground. Easy place to visit if wheelchair access is required.

Fantastic fòod, lovely atmosphere and welcoming staff.

Nice friendly staff, reasonably priced food

The T. A. average rating of 4.5 is correct: certainly a solid 4+. Looked in for a light lunch (sandwich), not on offer; so came back in the evening for dinner, very good food + value. Had homemade lasagna and tasty duck + pheasant pie, with lots of fresh veg. Excellent friendly service, cosy ambience. One oddity: doesn't - at least, last Sat. night didn't - serve wine by the glass, only the bottle. Reasonable parking space. Recommended.

Had Sunday lunch . Very school dinner. Overpriced for cooking ability.

Great meal and surroundings. I recommend :)

A super country pub with great staff and delicious food. Free car park. Great choice of specials, the lamb shank was great. Ace staff.

My partner and i happened upon the Swan returning from home Herefordshire on Valentines day, they were about to shut for lunch but kindly let us order lunch, and we were very happy they did, the food was excellent and cooked perfectly for us, we ordered a 10oz steak each with home made chips which came with lovely fresh salad, coleslaw, fried tomato and garden peas and onion rings, Liam who served us was really polite and friendly and the lady chef came and asked if everything is ok, she was about to go home when we arrived but stayed to cook our excellent meal. I highly recommend The Swan Inn , it is spot on and fairly priced !
