About Swan
Traditional pub with high, moulded ceilings, varnished wood interior and upstairs dining room.
Claimed to be on the site of the first coaching stop west after leaving the City and now handily placed between the two Hammersmith Underground stations and close to the bus station, the Swan, built in 1901 by the architect Frederick Miller in Jacobean style, is Grade II listed and a CAMRA one-star Heritage Pub. Note the fine tessellated gables depicting the eponymous fowl.
Inside, wood predominates in the bustling 'L'-shaped main room. Beyond the counter, with its fine back-bar, is more seating in the spacious corridor and alcove which formed the original hotel entrance. An ornate double staircase leads to a first-floor restaurant with its own bar and the pub's toilets.
A good range of cask ales is on offer downstairs, including some darker and some paler brews. The usual Nicholson's menu offers traditional fare at reasonable prices throughout the pub; the venue also offers a food collection or home delivery service.

Very charming building! Good service and food for the price. I ordered the Sunday roast and enjoyed it. The food was well seasoned and the sauce complimented it well. I read the reviews before ordering and one person said they don't have much meat, but I had a good portion, which I was very grateful for. It was served with a yorkshire pudding which isn't in the picture because it was packaged separately to avoid becoming soggy.

Good place to go for visitors. Excellent fish and chips and typical (ohne gesmack sagt mein Sohn) english beer . British pub atmosphere !

Found this on Google Maps before my trip. Very popular place. Had a couple of Guinness with Runny Scotch eggs with English mustard brown sauce.

Had lunch with friends on a Monday Lunchtime. It was very quiet The decor is gorgeous, rich wooden mouldings, the Staff were nice. The food arrived quickly, I had the lentil and vegetable cottage pie which was so tasty! My friend had a pie and mash, though they accidentally forgot the gravy in the gravy boat. I had the caramel biscuit torte for dessert, which was very sweet and the coffee was very bitter. But otherwise fine. They didn't have any alternative milk - just semi skimmed, don't know if this is a permanent thing but that wasn't very vegan friendly - if you are. The female toilets…
