"I have eaten here many times , and always enjoyed both my meal and the atmosphere . However, I believe it is under new management with a new menu , which I experienced last night. We had pre ordered some of the meals as there were14 of us, but asked to make a change to two of them and were told that it wasn’t possible as they were already being cooked .. this is before we had even had starters and it was only lasagne we wanted to swap from to gammon . I also asked if we could have two separate tabs as two families , again it was not possible. Starters came minus one) that came after we had all finished ours . The food was adequate, but wasn’t as freshly cooked or as hot as it could have been. But overall we were satisfied. My main issue was the drinks and the pricing. I cannot believe that my half a draft cider was the same price as half a lemonade £2.75) and a toddlers fruit Shoot was more expensive costing £3.05. How is this justified ? I know that it’s the drinks that make the money but I find these prices , along with the rest of the party have put us off returning ."

Disappointed in food. Chose pan fried chicken. Didn 't come with tender stem broccoli as listed, ordinary broccoli which looked to gave been thrown on plate. Chips were dreadful, soggy and black. Food was just warm enough. Partner had steak which he said was alright .

I had pate to start which was a cold starter so couldn’t go wrong., came with no butter. Main was a beef roast dinner that was served cold, paid extra for a uncooked stuffing ball. Waitress was lovely and returned our food to be re-heated, I didn’t mind that. Veg was frozen veg and watery, not sure about the Yorkshire pudding but it really didn’t taste nice, no new potatoes as states on menu, 2 roast potatoes that were ok, roast beef over cooked a dry. This Sunday roast is definitely the worst I’ve been served.

It's been a while since we visited The Swynnie so didn't really know what to expect. Well, were we ever pleasantly surprised not only at the choice on the menu but also the quality of the food and the attentiveness of the staff. Service with a smile at all times. The place is obviously very popular as people kept arriving while we were there and when we left all the tables were taken. The highlight of an excellent meal were the home cooked chips, which were every bit as good as any we've ever tasted. Highly recommend and it won't be long before we return !!

Been visiting this pub for food for years. It's got a relatively new manager and care has been taken to update the establishment. The menu is extensive and printed very small so advise to look at menu on website) but now lacks choice other than sandwiches and baguettes for lunch and smaller appetites... the 2 course lunch menu is no longer available on Saturdays.. We did however enjoy what we had but a bit pricey for lunchtime and soon went cold as plates were not heated. Overall good food but changes to menu and price increases mean we will not visit as often.

When the sunday roast came, for the price it initially looked really good, sadly with it being cold only with warm gravy on top didn 't impress us very much. Also there was a very loud lady behind the bar. we assumed she was either a bar manager/landlady. She unfortunatly made the experience even worse, So we couldn 't wait to leave, She was barking orders or shouting orders to the staff, that made us feel sorry for them to have such a boss.... Normaly we would mention a cold meal , however me or my partner didn 't have the energy to have a row with x Person. Says it all for £2.00 extra we didn 't stay for dessert.

Just home from The Swynnerton Arms utterly replete and ready to lavish praise on this establishment. We booked a table for five, and went for the full three courses. The starters were very encouraging. Personally I went for the corned beef bon bons. How novel, I have never seen anything like these on any other menu, and they were superb. The Branston Pickle and salad accompanying these really worked. All the mains, ranging from rump steak to the Swynnerton Burger were perfect, and those chips!!!!! It is worth booking in here just for the taste of perfect chips as your nan used to cook. And then the desserts, just wow!!! I personally went for the chocolate and orange cake, which was superb.
