Ate in here over the Christmas period. A good looking pub which is more of a restaurant, definately not a locals pub.

Food is pretty good but as another reviewer says below it a a "Chef and Brewer" pub so has a uniform menu. Slightly more expensive than you'd expect from a standard chain.

Four well kept ales were on offer but nothing exciting (no micros). Large garden, ideal for those long summer afternoon / evenings.

Large car park and number 18 bus stops outside.

A lovely garden, what a shame the food was so disappointing. I work very close by to this pub, so as it was a sunny Friday, I decided to go for lunch. Having decided on a Brie and Bacon sandwich with chips (£6.50), I sat and waited for 25 minutes for my food to arrive. When it did, I was rather disgusted to see that the chips were in fact oven chips: you know, the kind with no taste and the texture of cotton wool inside. This was rather surprising for a place that advertise itself as a 'Gastro pub'. (A portion of Oven Chips would have cost you £3.50 BTW.) I also had to work rather hard to find the Bacon in my sandwich.

AVOID AVOID AVOID!

Have had two meals at Ye Olde Swan and both were superb. Children welcome. Excellent Service. As good as the Birch at Woburn but more reasonable prices.

Looks promising, but the Chef & Brewer sign outside gives a clue to the disappointing fare on offer inside. The menu is way to big. Quality, not quantity should be the theme here. Prices are on the high side for the standard of food. Beer was pretty good and staff tried hard to please. Little chance of a return trip however.

Interestingly, the pub stands on the border of the good part of Woughton on the Green and the not so good part. Go there and you'll see what I mean.

Either this place has changed in the 2 years since most of these reviews or it was because we had spent all day in Bletchley Park and got there 5.30pm last Sunday.
Food was good although several of our first choices were unavailable (roasts, salmon, duck breast) and did not take too long to arrive. Service at the bar had the big company feel as did the style of the menus but which didn't seem to be advertised. Ales included Deuchers IPA which according to my mate is a regular here
