The Swan Inn overview
Recently refurbished, the Swan Inn Newtown is a cosy, family-friendly pub located approximately 2 miles from Newbury. The pub serves a range of fine ales and the kitchen offers an extensive ...
gastro-style menu including Sunday Roasts (half price roasts are also available for children). The pub has a delightful beer garden with a small stream and footbridge where children can play pooh-sticks. There is ample car parking or for those on foot, Newbury Racecourse is the closest station with links via Reading or Newbury to London.
Excellent location and food

We ate lunch here before Xmas 2011 and got a warm welcome and thought the menu was good. Sunday lunch was immense, and our lad enjoyed playing in the garden despite the cold! The prices were not cheap, but it should not be compared with a Weatherspoons. (I struggle to understand an earlier review that criticised everything, including an non-existent smell!)

Sewage smells garden
19 Jan 2011
Visited with: Teenager
I visited the Swan Inn in January 2011 and was shocked to find that the Inn has removed all of the old charm that it once had. It now represents a modern Inn with no local ales and overpriced food which comes directly from a freezer into a microwave!
The more worrying issue was the smell of sewage which directly came from the carpark and river and made the local area smell quite badly.
I would not recommend anyone to visit this pub as it offers nothing that a pub with a family wants and I would never allow a child near the garden due to the sewage issue.

Stumbled across this great pub

Visited with: Infant, Child
We'd gone for a walk in the area and came across this gem of a pub by chance (the one we had planned to go to stopped serving food at 2pm). We sat outside in the terrific beer garden with our two kids and enjoyed a lovely Sunday roast. The inside looked spacious enough and bright, and their changing facilities were immaculate.
