An award-winning village pub, The Swan sits at the heart of the picture-perfect village of Southrop. Part of Thyme, an historic Cotswold estate, the menus celebrate the ingredients and flavours of the farm and kitchen garden, as well as using ingredients carefully sourced from local suppliers.

Locally distinct brews, wines and non-alcoholic drinks lead to an interesting drinks menu, with wines available by the glass. Our seasonal table menu ensures a country pub feel which has a good choice of simple, rustic dishes as well as your pub classic dishes.

Just a short stroll from Thyme, The Swan sits at the heart of the village of Southrop adjacent to the green. The Swan is characterised by low-slung ceilings, roaring fires and a spacious garden room. The higgledy-piggledy wooden furniture combined with bright stripes and Bertioli fabrics make the perfect setting for cosy feasting and simple merry-making.

    Roast dinner was fabulous! Delicious and great portion. Not much fish left after deboning but guess that’s the risk you take. Pear dessert is tiny weeny … tasted lovely but is is a slither of a pear and tiny weeny biscuit with a normal scoop of yummy ice cream. Staff were great. Decor and surroundings gorgeous.

    Had a fantastic Mother’s Day experience. We had the beef and pork roast and pasta for our son. All were really well cooked and seasoned. Staff where very diligent and helped remove any unneeded table ware out of our sons 1yr old reach. The venue as a whole was great, clean, presentable and smelled really nice all while maintaining its historic charm.

    Always have a great time here. Food was delicious; mum says it was the best vegan burger she has ever had. Gorgeous atmosphere, lovely staff, great food - can't fault it. And bonus points for being dog friendly! Undoubtedly the most charming pub in the area.
