| Busy on the Saturday afternoon when i visited, not a great pub and does obviously need an injection of something to make it worth visiting. Really makes the Blue Boar and The Queens stand out as the High St are pretty dire. lezford - 24 Jan 2012 13:24 |
| Recently taken over by new management, this place will need a lot of work to turn it round. Usually full of chav kids slamming shots, and some old duffers at the end of the bar that don't know what year it is. Redeeming feature is the dance hall behind the main bar, which hosts R & R nights every other Wednesday. Maldon Gold is always good, and probably the cheapest in town bar the Con club.

| I was looking for a place to celebrate my 50th birthday, the first weekend of May 2008. Requirements: A pub with accommodation facilities, a decent meal for a party of app. 20, a place with some selection of real ale, situated in a not too big and not too small town, not too far from Stansted, since most of the party of ale lovers from Norway, would arrive there. I ended up booking at The Swan in Maldon – which all in all matched fairly well with my requirements. Then I came across the comments about The Swan here in BITE, and I really started to become worried: “Dirty dingy hotel”, “a horrible pub”, “rude staff - don’t go in”. U–oh. Was my birthday weekend going to be a sorry experience? I am very pleased to say that all my worries were ill founded (as Rune has commented below). The party in the Tudor room was a very nice time; the food very nice, the staff did a tremendous job serving us, and the ale was OK. The hotel rooms were nice and clean, and the full English breakfast was perfect. And Maldon was a really nice town. I thank the hostess Claire and her staff for a very nice weekend. I have no problem recommending The Swan Hotel in Maldon. CinnamonGirl - 11 Jul 2008 22:22 |
| To celebrate our friend 50 years old birthday 15 Norwegians stayed at The Swan Hotel for three nights. The food for birthday dinner and breakfast was great and the service excellent. Comfortable accommodation. Moderate choice of real ales in the pub, but there were always a London Pride and the summer spirit of Mighty Oak’s Maldon Gold to enjoy. They also had a few bottled beers from the local Farmers Ales. Overall a friendly, welcoming and recommendable place right in the centre of the Maldon. rune - 11 Jul 2008 07:45 |
