We had a lovely stay in this old country hotel. The doors lock with old fashioned mechanical keys (not digital cards). The bed was huge and soft - and we had a good night sleep. The breakfast was delicious - a standard full English breakfast. We will visit again if we go to that region.

Just called in at the spur of the moment and I can't definitely say we'll be going again, can recommend the fish and faggots meals they were fabulous. Well done to the staff, it was a lovely experience

My mum and I visited the Throckmorton last night for their ‘Game Week’ and all I can is wow! The food was 10/10, the service was great and as always there was just a lovely vibe about the whole place. I had the pheasant schnitzel burger with Brie and it was heavenly! The ginger biscuit cheesecake was also exceptionally creamy with the perfect amount of ginger. I love how they offer small portions of a few of the puddings too - perfect when you’re already feeling full but would love a bite of something sweet. Will be back again soon!

Food was good, but the last twice we visited, service could have been more attentive. We needed to wait or signal for service when staff were just chatting at the bar. Initial welcome was good though.

I have just come back from The Throckmorton for a Father's Day meal, and it was truly awful... I have been there on many occasions and has been good but not amazing. This was at 5 o'clock and I asked is the beef pink and I was told it wasn't but still nice, so I decided to have that, I wish I didn't, I had a piece of the meat and it was inedible so I left it and complained about it, NO REFUND. My wife's was not that much better with very dry lamb. My daughter in laws desert was horrible and said the chocolate mousse was very grainy. I will never return there and go down the road to The Boot for beautiful food. 0/10

Went out for fathers day. Service and staff were good and polite. Food unfortunately was sub par. Dad had the beef, which was tough, dry and tastless. I had the burger which was better, but was overloaded with feta cheese unfortunately. My fiance also had the same issue with her burger but overall it was okay. The deserts, I had the treacle sponge which tasted nice but was hard at the bottom, and the custard was okay. My fiance had the chocolate moose, which was awful, tastless and gritty. Overall, very disappointing. The bill was a lot more than we expected considering the standard of food we recieved. And the beef alone ruined the meal with my Dad on fathers day. Will not be returning.

Friendly staff, food ok and plenty of parking. I had the fish pie, I would say it was more mash with a small bit of fish, disappointing. Also shown to a dirty table so we chose to move tables.

A group of us visited today (2 June 2024), we found the staff to be quite rude, drinks were outrageously expensive, we were asked to move tables from what was a 'dining only' area to a non dining area, even though there was hardly anyone eating (I'm not surprised at their prices!). Not very friendly, not impressed, won't be returning.

Nice pub, can't complain at beer garden in summer which is lovely. But this is more directed at the breakfast and food offering, initially great but over the course of a few visits felt that some improvements needed. Sorry to say but appararance of some of the waiters needs to improve, cleanliness is an absolute must in serving/preparing food and things like hair should be tied back. Very off putting. Sadly has put us off revisiting in a hurry for breakfast/food.

Came in for a spot of breakfast. Milly/Millie served us. Her service was exceptional, very friendly and helpful. Bit of a wait for food but it was definitley worth the wait. Breakfast could have done with some more beans to make it a bit less dry but all in all very nice and hats off to Milly/Millie for the great service.

Great team of staff. All very welcoming and engaging. Food was excellent and good value. We stopped for 3 nights and could have stayed for a few more without running out of things on the menu that we wanted to try. There is also a small specials menu alongside the regular one. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. Stopping in February we were concerned that they may be cold, but this wasn't the case as they were plenty warm enough. The only small downside is that it is on a busy main road and the traffic noise can be heard in the front facing rooms. Overall though this didn't detract from our stay and we would fully recommend staying here.

Always a great experience. Food is extremely tasty and good value. I’d highly recommend one of the themed nights like St Patrick’s day or Burns night.

Came for a surprise family birthday celebration. Food was excellent. Bi and the team are friendly and helpful and went over and above to ensure we had the most wonderful night. We highly recommend this restaurant and can't wait to return.

We were not from the area, and we arranged for a night at a local cottage nearby. We did our research as this was a Christmas night out for work. We liked the look of the white swan restaurant and therefore booked this. About a month before we were due to come. I had a reminder about the booking a few days ago and confirmed we would be still be attending. However the Christmas light switch on was that night and when we arrived at the bar. The bar was heaving and we were confused to where the restaurant was as there was no one else eating. And there just seemed to be people drinking everywhere. We spoke to the manager and he said that there was no booking for us and he said you can try and find a table and we can see if we can try and do some food? I have two lots of confirmation. Confirming our booking. Either the pub was greedy and because of all the people drinking and maybe ours was the Only reservation they decided to just say they weren’t doing food! Or they decided before hand they weren’t doing food, but did not communicate this to us. However why get me to confirm a few days ago! The manager tried to blag us and say he only took over management 2 weeks ago! If that’s the case you need to look at your booking system as I was confirmed not once but twice. However we were really disappointed as this was our Christmas night out but felt like the manager didn’t care about this as the pub was so busy with drinkers . The local pub called the nags head fortunately was able to accommodate us. And they were also surprised with the lack of communication we had. So big shout out to the nags head for feeding our belly’s. So if you do book at the white swan just be mindful if there is an event on you might be cancelled with no warning as they care more about the profits than basic customer service.

Service was very slow and the steak from the festive menu wasn’t very good quality. We have visited many times before and this time it was a bit of a let down.
