Excellent pub, no wonder it won Pub of the year (Cheltenham 2006) - This place is usually packed on a Friday night, one of the few places I think that benifits more from the smoking ban. The staff are very friendly, and that includes the doormen, the food here is priced slightly higher than your chain pubs but thats because it's proper food, local food for local people, ... are you local? Seriosuly it's well presented, perfectly cooked, & huge portions when your plate arrives, so paying a few extra pence is irrelevant, you get exactly what you pay for.

Not a great deal of real ales on tap, tried the Harrier Lite, which is not my favourite beer but a few pints of it and I didn't care anyway. I remember drinking a strange home brew cider called Black Rat, more of this please! Haven't seen the concoction since.

The Swan is an excellent pub for any time of the day, been there on a saturday afternoon and sat alongise families, then returned later that night to meet some friends and been in a mix of students race goers (posh types) and 30 somethings.

Fantastic pub, anyone who comes to Cheltenham as soon as you get into a taxi, don't ask for your hotel, ask for the Swan, get yourself a pint and watch the wolrd go by.

Great food if a little expensive, regular guest beers and a buzzing atmosphere that makes you want to stay all day / evening. Great for babies and children as well. Clean , cool and calm. At lunchtimes they even play Leonard Cohen - how about that for non-conformity?

Very good 'real' pub ..... friendly staff, well trained and always busy ... good food, especially home made burgers on 'Burger Night' wednesdays ... good mix of customers ... all ages, sizes and shapes ... the Pub style and decor doesnt dominate the environment - the people in it create the atmosphere ... and it is a friendly one. The live music (sometimes on a Thursday) is also worth coming to with a variety of musical tastes ... yes you guessed it I like the place and the people ... including you Vanessa !
