A welcoming traditional pub that has sat in the heart of the village since 1606. It features a public bar, side room with a real fire and an impressive lounge with a raised area for entertainment. Lunchtime cobs and pies are available daily and a variety of food vans park up in the car park on Fridays serving hot food such as pizza, kebabs etc.
Quiz nights, Jazz nights and Open Mic nights are held regularly, see Facebook for details. There is a large garden and children's play area at the rear overlooking the beautiful local countryside.
The pub is popular with walkers and cyclists alike (no muddy boots in the lounge). Bathams XXX available in December. Bathams Best Bitter was originally brewed for the Swan as Worcestershire drinkers wanted a pale rather dark (mild) ale.
Historic Interest
The Elizabethan Harvington Hall is nearby
Late-18c rendered brick building with four rooms. A visit to the Swan is recommended for its excellent snug at the rear. This tiny bare wood floored room has old half-height panelled walls and a glazed partition to the back of the bar with a folding window for service. Off this is a passage on the right with a hatch/door to the servery. Other old fittings include a terrazzo floored front lobby with intact, but disused off-sales hatch; the bar has old fixed seating. All the bar counters and bar backs are modern as is the fireplace and panelling in the high ceilinged lounge on the left, which is a venue for live music. There is a small restaurant on the right. Not enough.
