"Wonderful!!! We stayed at the Swan Gillingham for a few days and could not fault it. The room was spotless and comfortable, roomy and well stocked with tea and coffee supplies. We ate in for several meals including Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner over or stay, which were all cooked from fresh and of very good quality, prepared and cooked by good chefs, the plates were full and the price was very good too. All the staff where friendly and very helpful combined with a lovely atmosphere all round. I have an unusual severe allergy (not one of the common 14 listed) and I'm often turned away from restaurants where I live, however, the Swan at Gillingham had NO problem with it at all! As the food was made and served on the premises they knew exactly what the ingredients were for every item, including sauces and this was very unusual and a lovely treat for me. It made a real change for me to be able to eat different meals and combinations with sauces that I have never had before, I felt confident, safe and comfortable with the food on the plate and it was lovely. Gillingham Swan is a short walk away from Beccles town and the Norfolk Broads at Beccles. We highly recommend The Swan for staying or for meals, also recommend booking a table as it gets booked very quickly!"

We had our beloved Dad’s wake at the Gillingham Swan and the service we received was outstanding. The presentation and the quality of the home made food was truly exceptional and we would recommend to anyone. View menu

Very disappointed! Rude staff. Ignored when we walked in, too busy standing behind bar chatting with other staff joking while on their phones. Brought out the wrong meals, I was told ‘I don’t get things wrong!’ Was looking forward to an end of month treat. Miss the blonde lady

It was my wife’s birthday and she said that the swan was her choice for our celebratory meal. Our meal was just brill. I had a lovely piece of cod with all of the trimmings and a good salad. We have been here a few times recently and the food and service is always first class. Well done to everyone who looked after us. We will return.

The food here is really good. I'm not being derogatory when I say it is basic, home cooked snap. That is a compliment. Nothing fancy or pretentious. Sadly, the service was littered with basic mistakes, wrong thing arriving, missing items and forgotten drinks. However, these were very quickly rectified politely and complimentary drinks given. We all make mistakes and things were sorted. Would recommend.

"Where do I even begin? The service from the woman behind the bar was shocking. When I inquired about dairy-free options for my son, I was told that nothing could be modified and that they don't cater to allergies at all! I pointed out the menu's claim that they could accommodate such needs, but my concerns were met with an eye roll. I then tried to order him some chips, but was told they were fried in the same oil as dairy and meat products, and since we are vegetarian, that wouldn't work. I asked about the vegan dishes, only to learn that they are also prepared alongside meat products, so there's no guarantee they would actually be vegan. At this point, my daughters had already become excited about eating out and the play area, so I reluctantly decided to go along with it and ordered three sandwiches on granary bread and a child's fish and chips. My son had a packet of crisps. When the sandwiches arrived, they were absolutely terrible. The cheese and onion sandwich consisted of two slices of cheap store-bought bread, some pre-grated cheese, and a few onion slices—without even a hint of butter! It certainly wasn’t inexpensive; we paid £45 for four soft drinks, three sandwiches, and a child's meal. As for the play area, it was concerning—there were sharp screws poking through the wood chips, loose sharp fixtures on top of the slide, and a large exposed electric cable under the swings! We decided to leave swiftly; it was such a disappointing way to end our holiday, when it should have been a lovely final meal before heading home. I was appalled by their attitude towards me—I felt like an inconvenience. The food was awful, and I genuinely recommend avoiding this place if you are vegan or have allergies; even if a dish is labeled vegan, they certainly don’t take the necessary precautions to keep it separate from meat products. It’s truly unfortunate, as the location by the river is beautiful, and we were all so excited to be there, but we left feeling very disappointed. We definitely won't be returning."
