Visited last Tuesday for the first time in ages and have to say it was excellent. The Butcombe Bitter was 10/10, service good and at 20.30 was comfortable.

Fine traditional, but small city pub with a narrow bar at ground level and an upstairs bar that is somewhat bigger and not quite as busy. It's a Fullers pub that takes the permitted guest beer - note the numerous pump clips on display

Rather pleasingly, the management of this pub clearly read BITE as pinned up by the bar is the BITE top 40 listing in Feb 2007 when this pub was briefly at number 1 and the nearby Bell in Cannon Street (which is under the same ownership ) was at number 2.

What I would say to the management is that the upstairs bar had a strong whiff of furniture polish yesterday evening - one of the unpleasant consequences of smoking now being banned, obviously.

I'll put this down to a temporary aberration - the Swan is still one of the best pubs in this part of the city in my book

The Swan seems to get busier and busier and it's easy to see why, the beer is always excellent and the staff are great, special mention to Big Simon!

An old friend this one but I don't get in there as much as I should since I moved office up to Broadgate. Popped in again a couple of weeks ago and it doesn't change. Downstairs bar for lunchtime - upstairs for the evenings - just great
