The baked camembert was served with a generous amount of toast which in turn was generously buttered with garlic.

If you eat in the bar area you go to the bartender order your drink of choice and meal. Hint...if you only feel like a half portion of fish and chips you can order a half order and for me it's a perfect portion of food. They do have a bar menu too if you don't want fish and chips. But really who goes to a pub in England and not order fish and chips. This is the place to do so. They do have a restaurant but I believe you need a reservation for that. Worth every bit for a nice meal out and I believe that the menu is a bit different.

I'd been putting off going to the Swan Inn, because I quickly realised that it has the same menu as…read moreThe Polmeroy Inn. I'd already been to the Polmeroy twice, so why go to the Swan... big mistake. Where as the Polmeroy is snug and cozy, the Swan Inn had a more open, airy feel. There is a fantadtic terrasse in the back. It's true that Polmeroy and Swan are sister restaurants with the same a la carte menus. I chose one of the specials, which was a pork loin served with garden fresh peas and pea greens (read the shoots, incredibly good) and crisp broccoli, as well as a purée of potatoes with chorizo. It was quite the meal: a little fatty/ salty /spicy tones of the chorizo with the fresh primavera notes of the pea shoots. The tenderloin preserved its juices and was succulent. Great place. I'm a fan

Just tried calling to book a table for tomorrow (called at 14.15 as website said they close at…read more14.30), phone was answered by a very rude individual who told me they were too busy with lunchtime and to call back later. I asked if they'd be open to answer the phone later and he shouted 'the pub is open all day I'm very busy' and hung up on me! So won't be dining there then. Sorry, but first impressions really matter - if you're too busy to answer the phone (the only way to book) then DON'T or implement a different method of booking tables. Don't recommend it, they were horrible and obviously too busy to be bothered.

What an amazing little pub and restaurant. I found this place purely by chance and what a little…read moregem. Be warned if you want to eat here book in advance we couldn't get any food! The pub was amazing and quirky. It was all of different levels with the restaurant being an extension out the back. The pub had the log fire going with antiques all around - even some quirky games too! The allowed dogs inside the pub and in the beer garden. The garden was lovely not massive but a good sun trap. Warning there isn't much parking either and had to park on the side of the road. Reasonable prices and great atmosphere I will surely be back

The usual food, in fact pretty much the same menu as at all of them I think. The quality has been a bit hit and miss for me, though their burgers are decent. The puddings have been a bit of a let down specifically the rhubarb crumble which is more just rhubarb and custard and only a smidgen of crumble. Still, it is pretty good value as they do a two course menu for £10.
