"I’m writing this review primarily to highlight the exceptional service provided by a young waitress at this establishment. On Sunday, June 11th, our walking group arrived at the Swan later than anticipated, feeling hot and thirsty due to the warm weather. From the moment we arrived until we left, this young lady went above and beyond to ensure we were taken care of. She had a remarkable ability to anticipate our needs before we had to ask. Her demeanor was sharp, friendly, and incredibly efficient. She maintained a positive attitude, bringing us multiple jugs of iced water along with various soft and alcoholic drinks. She took our orders accurately on the first try, delivered everything simultaneously, and checked on us regularly, treating us with a level of attention and care that I've rarely experienced elsewhere. I would hire her in a heartbeat; she is a fantastic example of immense potential. The food was also quite good, but the service truly stood out. Thank you for the excellent experience!"

Lovely pub, quiet in the middle of the week. The beast burger lived up to its name and my wife really enjoyed the lasagne. Feels local but welcoming.

Big garden, plenty of space. Looked cosy inside with people having Sunday roasts. Need to drive there though as it 's one of those 'out of the way ' pubs in rural Kent.

I visited the Swan for a wake and had a positive experience. The beer was excellent, and the service was fantastic—very attentive throughout. I heard they serve Thai food on Fridays, so I'm planning to come back again.

Sarah was amazing at accommodating all our needs for a 60th birthday celebration. Service, food quality and ease of payment on individual bills under our names is above beyond service! We all had a great time....thank you Sarah! View menu

Popped in for lunch after a walk with my mum and baily her dog. We both had the swan ciabatta which was lovely. Baily didnt go with out as he had a doggy ice cream and ate the lot. Felt very welcome and was a fantastic welcoke feel.

I can’t recommend this place enough, the food is amazing! We went here this afternoon for a roast, and we think it was the best roast we’ve ever tasted- absolutely delicious. The service is also brilliant, the staff are so friendly and helpful :

Charming little pub! We came down for one of their regular bike nights. It was quite busy, but we were served quickly and without any problems. The outdoor food was decent, though fairly basic. I suppose when you're preparing meals for over 200 bikers, simplicity is key for speed. View menu

Little gem in the middle of nowhere. We had the Pork Belly dish and I have to say it was the best I have ever had. The Staff were extremely Friendly and Attentive and I was delighted to pay the discretionary Service charge as well deserved. Love the log fires as well. Very highly recommended, so give it a visit if your around the area as well worth it.

"Our excitement to see this café open allowed us an opportunity for some needed refreshment . Oh a cup of tea and a slice of cake or a little available small snack was what we needed . We were told by an employee sit down we come to you , so we did .. Another staff member standing behind the counter looked over and frumpy look called the cook who had the same frumpy look and went back to cooking , We : waited , waited , waited , waited and saw the frumpy counter woman still in the same spot , we waited and waited then left , maybe she was glued to the floor . We looked left and saw a pub named the Pheasant, oh drink and food , renewed enthusiasm and excitement we entered to staff who couldn 't do enough, so professional and warrants praise and a revisit , after a while we left and waited outside for our taxi , looking over we saw the cafe closed , ahhhhh it all came together and understanding that we was an inconvenience to the café as they was closing in half an hour after our visit , How long would it have taken to make a cup of tea for two? , us drink it , then how long would it have taken them to wash up the cups ? , they still would have twenty minutes for the woman to be unglued, our first impressions were of a cafe with many seats and a welcoming atmosphere, the woman employee sitting at the front table working was professional and welcoming the tables were clean and we kept our excitement as we waited , our excitement and enthusiasm faded, we left happily for the woman glued to the floor , we are appreciating the effort of the lady at the table who was seriously let down by the others , thank you for your efforts , apart from her professional customer service skills our Eureka moment to see the café open wasn 't to last , sorry to the staff member at the table I 'm very sure the service we had wouldn 't have been what you would have given , this review seems strong in tone but it 's our experience in here that day.. . I am not now able to show enthusiasm for another visit , I would have loved having that day and opportunity to empty my wallet a little and a little bit more on what would have been another visit , sorry no Eureka moment taken away that day."
