The Rising Sun

About

The Rising Sun is a charming country pub in the picturesque village of Swanmore, tucked on the edge of the rolling Meon Valley. From the moment you step inside, a warm, rustic ambience fills the air—think polished log‑fire walls, timber beams, and the inviting glow from open fire pits. With three distinct dining areas, guests can choose a cosy corner near the hearth, a relaxed patio in the spacious beer garden, or a lively spot upstairs—ideal for groups of any size. The bar boasts a generous selection of real ales, local guest beers, and a curated range of wines and spirits. The kitchen keeps things fresh and hearty with daily specials, roast dinners on Sundays, and a new Autumn Menu available for download. Whether you’re craving a hearty pub lunch, a relaxed late‑night bite, or a family‑friendly pint, every dish is cooked from scratch and served with friendly, attentive service. With a child‑friendly play area and a spacious beer garden that opens from noon to late evening, The Rising Sun is as perfect for casual diners as it is for special occasions. Visit to experience the authentic charm of a traditional English country pub while enjoying the scenic backdrop of the Meon Valley.
