The Swan
About
Nestled on the scenic banks of the River Thames in Walton‑on‑Thames, The Swan is a newly‑refurbished pub that blends classic British charm with modern comfort. With dark‑oak paneling, warm lighting and cosy furnishings, the interior welcomes guests to a relaxed ambience. The venue offers a variety of spaces, from a lively bar with a crackling fireplace to the spacious “Swan Room” for private events, and even the outdoors with a heated River Terrace and covered Garden Huts. The pub’s menu, curated by Head Chef Jonah, showcases seasonal British dishes, hearty Sunday roasts, and a selection of bar snacks and cocktails, all cooked with locally sourced ingredients. The Swan is renowned for its lively calendar of events – live music, quiz nights, craft beer tastings, and themed parties – making it a favourite spot for locals and visitors alike. The venue is open year‑round, serving food from 12:00 to 21:30 on weekdays and 12:00 to 21:00 on Sundays, with venue hours running 11:00‑23:00 (and 23:00‑00:00 on Friday and Saturday). "Book Your Table" options are available for those who wish to reserve a spot in advance, though booking is not required for casual dining. Whether you’re looking for a family brunch, a romantic riverside dinner, or a lively group celebration, The Swan offers a welcoming atmosphere with breathtaking river views and a commitment to excellent hospitality.
