| Reasonable enough place but very loud background music and a smell of chips rather detracts from it. Large pub that goes back a long way from the entrance. Beware the low ceiling in places! 4 beers on yesterday - Doombar, something from each of RCH and Georges plus Wye Valley Bitter and an amazing £1.95 a pint! Quality was fine. cheshirecat - 3 Jul 2011 12:31 |
| When we first moved to Worcester 10 years ago I fell in love with this pub, it's great atmosphere and brilliant jukebox - oh how things change. We went in on Saturday for the first time in six months and ordered a Hoegaarden and a vodka and coke. I was then stunned when the barman informed me that would be over £8! Incredulous I asked why and he shrugged and said, well the Hoegaarden is over £4 as it's "specialist". Not wanting to cause a scene we went and sat down and after a couple of minutes realised of course that that meant a bog standard vodka and coke must also be ridiculously expensive. I went back and checked with the barman and yes, it was a mental £3.80. I said pleasantly to him that it seemed a very high price and he shrugged again....We sat stunned and drank slowly, it just felt like we had been ripped off in what was a well loved pub. My partner finished her drink so I said, come on, let's give them another chance and she went for a Smirnoff ice and you guessed it £3.80 :( Having drunk similar rounds with a specialist beer (Schneider Weise or Erdinger) plus a vodka and coke in two other pubs in the same street and being charged around the £6 mark on that night I just don't know what's going on at the Swan, but this experience doesn't make me want to go back.

| DudleyC - I banged my head going down the step by the bar! Ouch! (ha ha) Went here last week and was impressed. Had a pint each of the St George themed ales (brewed locally but I can't remember which brewery). £2.50 a pint and not as cheap as other people have reported. Didn't see the "70's theme bar" or "trendy bar" that other people have commented about. Or even the "bizarre lounge upstairs". All I found upstairs were the toilets! mattbeer - 13 Apr 2010 02:05 |
| Great pub, good choice of Ales, Friendly staff, just mind your head on that step. DudleyC - 6 Apr 2010 10:31 |
| This pub is three for the price of one. The main bar area is the Swan, the back bar is a venue called Drummonds and upstairs is a 70’s bar called the Lunar Lounge. The pub is a low ceiling and flag floors sort of place with lots of Whitbread and Flowers memorabilia around. There are 4 handpumps on the bar serving Boddingtons Cask plus 3 changing guests all at an amazing £1.59 a pint and no it’s not a JDW. Called in for a couple on both of our nights in Worcester and the beer was always spot on. The real ale is served in the main pub part only though. Mind you a 70’s theme bar should be selling keg Red Barrel and Gauntlet etc anyway. It’s a good pub. ROBCamra - 13 Nov 2009 13:45 |
