Great pub with a huge selection of beers and whiskey.

A superb pub, by some margin the best in Loughborough, in my opinion, though the Generous Briton is getting good.
I look forward to visiting when I visit Loughborough (I live in London) and do so regularly. The Swan is all about the beer, with an extensive selection of well-kept real ales. On the very rare occasions that my pint hasn’t been tip-top the staff are only too happy to know.

The locals are friendly but not overbearing (head in on a Friday or Saturday and you’ll end up talking to someone!). Food is tasty and delicious, well priced. The Swan Chilli goes down very well indeed.
Am I being over-positive? Well compared to the many thousands of pubs serving average beer, £2.50 for a pint of award winning well-kept Harvest Pale is refreshing. One warning: pop in for one and you might still be there 5+ pints later, it goes down that well!

They have music and comedy events that are not usually my thing; however the set up of the pub means they don’t interfere with a pleasant pint.

In summary a thriving pub because of good beer and service; the Swan shows why so many pubs in the UK are going bust - they are rubbish in comparison!

A pub we always visit in Loughborough but sadly this time the cellar cooler had packed up and the beers were warm (not off but warm) so the visit was slightly marred by that. However it's still good value - for beer and food and the range of ales was fine (Castle Rock/Goffs/Milestone/Great Newsome and a couple of others).
You can use your Castle Rock loyalty card in here - "1 over the 8" - a free pint when you buy eight (not all at once!!). Still worth a visit.

Castle Rock pub. OK enough with decent selection of ales.

Very nice pub! Usual great range of Castle Rock beers plus guests. Unlike a lot of other Tynemill establishments they're also big on food here. I recommend the hot steak baguette with curly chips!
