Had a rare Friday morning off of work, so stopped for an early morning breakfast, couldn't fault it in the slightest. Fantastic food, would recommend to anybody, and very quick and efficient service to boost. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, with a constantly smile on their face, shout out in particular to kerry who looked after me from the moment I entered

Enjoyed an evening meal here with family. Good choices on the menu, although some of my mixed grill was a bit cool, not excessively, so not enough to complain about. Good choice of puddings and the sundaes are tasty. Staff were friendly and efficient. A couple of rapid chargers for your EV too, but didn't check out the rates.

Last time I had a meal here in the public bar was around 40 years ago if not more, it cost 21 shillings. The beer is still nice though and it is next to the river, and the service is good. Though it isn't all countryside now!

My first time here. After reading the reading the reviews i was very hesitate coming here. This service was great by Robin. Food was good.

Went here for a family meal and I have to say the food was absolutely terrible. We ordered our 3 year old a pizza and when it arrived it was clearly a Chicago town pizza that has been cooked in the microwave. It was inedible. The chips had looked like they had been sat out all day and thrown back into the fryer to heat them up. Our other son had a burger, which was just as awful. The picture attached is how the burger came out before our son started eating it. The roasts we ordered we terrible. Cold, dry and the roast potatoes were rock hard. Won’t be returning here any time soon.

Visited for lunch. Bar ladys attitude was churlish and poor. Once in the restaurant area, no problems at all. Lunch menu food was acceptable for the price paid.

December 9, 2024

Starters were nice mains were awful. Twice a steak had to be sent back was cold. Chips hard in the middle burnt tasting hunters chicken.. please dont get us wrong we never complain about food and eat out alot but tonight they were just not on there game. Food area was busy. Hence all that they did take all mains of the bill. Fair play.. and the wee guy waiter was so kind and full of apologies bless him....

We went back tonight ....two rump steaks mine was passable my husbands you could see was scraggy and tough a mouthful confirmed. Nobody came to check if we were happy so we called someone over ....the manager....he took my husbands back to get another and he sat waiting watching me eat....no sign of his food I finished....no sign of food or update from staff who stayed away. My husband left the table I called someone for an update. She went in the direction of the kitchen then walked straight past ignoring us and stood at the bar with the manager. Half an hour with no food and not feeling like waiting for me then to sit watching my husband eat we decided to leave. Walking past the manager and staff...still chatting...my husband said the manager were leaving...managers commented well I wasnt going to charge for the steaks anyway. With a manager who doesnt appreciate eating out is about the experience of eating together as well as good food and that our evening was ruined what hope is there? My husband ate McDonalds in the beer garden. A window has been broken for over a year with visible rot a sign of the care given to the whole place.

Our experience in this pub was god awful. We ordered several meals and drinks. Everything we ordered was terrible. The beers tasted off. The wine was warm. The chicken and bacon was overcooked and dry. The squid was rubbery/chewy. The staff also came across as rude and passive aggressive, we felt so uncomfortable. Just a bad experience all around, which is disappointing as its local. Definitely would not be coming back again.

I have eaten here in the past albeit over 12 months ago and the food and service was excellent. Tonights meal however was a totally different experience. We had a table for 8 booked and arrived in time and were taken to our table. We ordered some drinks and these arrived in around 10 minutes. After around 15 minutes of looking the menu over we ordered our starters and mains. This is where things started to go wrong. We waited over 45 minutes for our starters to arrive. One of the dishes had items missing, one arrived late and they were not as warm as expected. We finished the starters never the less and waited for the mains. Which arrived about 25 minutes after the starters were cleared away. The two Barbers Chicken were delivered well cooked but were lukewarm and still had unmelted grated cheese on them. The merlot and beef dripping gravey delivered with a steak had not been reduced enough as it was like having a glass of wine according to the person who ordered it. The steak was lukewarm also. The pastry of the steak and ale pie was very hard. All in all it took us just over 2 1/2 hours to get through two courses of food which was served to us lukewarm. This was pointed out to the staff and our bill reduced, but this was still a disappointing experience considering how good our previous visit had been.

I went here today for a late lunch with my wife, we went over to the dining area and waited to be seated, a staff member walked past us, totally ignoring us, i just assumed he was leaving for the day so when he returned 5 minutes later ignoring us once again I was annoyed to say the least. Giving them the benefit of the doubt I waited another 5 minutes right by the sign that states please wait here to be seated the bar woman was too busy serving drinks and a waitress saw us and totally ignored us. I was so disgusted I simply left, another customer at the bar witnessed all this and looked to me in acknowledgement of my decision to leave, he also commented on the poor service. Absolute disgrace.

Went a couple weeks ago on a Friday evening and had a lovely meal Went back yesterday early evening and had an awful meal Ordered filet steak at just under £29.00 was cooked horrendous, they sliced it ? Never had filet cooked like that so overcooked Kids meal ordered sausage mash and beans and got 3 large very Bernie sausages mash was awful broccoli carrots and cucumber sticks, my little 5 year old tried sausage but hated it waste of £8.00 My meal pork very average and cod and chips very average No seasoning no taste and very boring Spoke to waitress who was very apologetic and she gave us free pudding and hit drink which I had wasn t much better Shame as I raved about our 1st meal but 100% won t be going back or recommend it

Sunday roast is a thing of mine. I love it. My family and I have been coming here for years on and off and on a Sunday I always have the same thing - roast beef with extra gravy and never have any complaints.... They have a new chef. My family and I visited a few weeks ago and the plate of food served to me was so bad the waitress took it away without being asked, commenting You cant eat this. She came back with a new meal which was actually very nice, but not a patch on the food Id previously had. Today, I ordered (predictably) the roast beef and received a plate of tepid, over cooked veg, a meagre amount of meat and watery, tasteless gravy. The roast potatoes were few and ridiculously small - as was the portion. There was no presentation at all. The food looked as though it had been thrown onto the plate. All rather disappointing and unappetising. The chef is not a chef. Lets be honest. My nan made better roasts and she wouldnt have called herself a chef. Whoever is in the kitchen would be better heating ready meals or making pot noodles. Its the kind of food youd expect if you lived in student accommodation and a drunk housemate decided to entertain. Now, there are 2 ways of looking at this: Firstly, the I Didnt Cook it Myself, So its a Luxury and secondly, the Im Paying For it ,So I Want Value For Money. I wish Id cooked it myself. I wish Id saved my money. Interestingly, The Red Lion, in Iver (just down the road) is also owned by Chef and Brewer. The food there is far better and I would recommend anyone wanting a decent roast to go there rather than the Swan and Bottle. That being said, the staff are lovely. Its a shame you have to air your grievances to them - they do an amazing job and are lovely people. They dont deserve the backlash and incompetent cook ensues. Sack the wannabe chef and get this place back on track or youll lose customers. Me? Im going to the Red Lion.

Came here for breakfast and most options not available for e.g. no granola and no porridge. So we ordered 2 full English breakfast. The bacon was streaky , cheaper version - advertised as back bacon - and the mushrooms were burnt. All in all one of the worst breakfasts Ive had. The manager did offer to compensate for bad food which is lovely but not the point. Parking: Good parking location

Went for dinner last night and ordered a vegan garden plate . First they had no mushrooms or sweet potatoes, so they added a vegan burger (which was like carpet ). The guy serving us was lovely , and the pub is nice , but the food was awful ..and £16.99 for a badly cooked plate of veg. Come on guys up your game ,there are loads of lovely vegan recipes out there ..just lazy choices that are horrible.

My husband organised a lunch for Mothers day. We had 4 children with us.. to say the service was exceptional is an understatement. My daughter gets really HANGRY.. to the point where she was having a full on melt down.. shes 6.. all the waitresses could see the sheer pain in my eyes and were trying really hard to get the food out. They were apologetic but I was mortified as we must of disturbed other patrols but they were so kind and supportive and thats what a mum needs. Food was awesome and overall minus the meltdown it was brilliant. Really cant fault. Thank you so much for a lovely mothers day

Update 10/03/2024 We visited yesterday for Mother s Day. We arrived on time for our booking but our table wasn t ready - this was clear from one of the waiting staff telling another young woman (the one with tattoos all over both forearms) that the table should have been ready for guests when they arrive. The lady apologised to us for this happening so we had to wait with a pram and two young children whilst the table was set. The lady with the tattoos cleaned and set up the table whilst we were waiting but she seemed to lack basic customer service or professionalism. Whilst putting the napkins out she literally threw one of them in my mums direction because she couldn t reach - it would have been better to simply hand it to me instead of fling it in my mum s direction. Food was delicious and although it was very busy I would say they coped well with timings. All other members of staff were so friendly and helpful except for this young lady with the tattoos on her arms (I wish I got her name but I didn t). This young lady also processed payment and even though my husband said thank you she simply walked off without saying anything. This member of staff brought down the level of service whilst the others were great and working so hard to keep up with how busy it was. It is unfortunate that one person can create a bad impression when the others were lovely and food was great. Nevertheless, we enjoyed the food and the service of other members of staff but I wanted to mention the lack of professionalism and service from this one member of staff as I would think this isn t the standard Swan and Bottle normally provides - which can be seen through all other members of staff and the service they provide. 24/12/2023 We went for a Christmas Eve lunch here and the food was very tasty. The only thing I would say made me give one less star on the service is that we pre-ordered and selected the option for a child s Christmas meal - when we got to receiving the food, we were told their systems weren t working and the pre-orders were messed up. This meant that they didn t even have a meal ready for our daughter (almost 2 years old) so we had to order something off their regular menu and pay extra for this. Also, when we were ordering drinks from their festive menu - the waitress told us that most of the syrups weren t available so we had to order something different. Apart from these points, everything else was lovely. Food, service from staff and the atmosphere was great. Would definitely visit again.

The pub has a convenient location near a busy road. There is parking and tables outside overlooking river Colne. We went for dinner on Sunday evening and sat inside as it was quite noisy outside. It was busy but we managed to find a table. Service was a bit slow - we about 30 minutes for our food. Unfortunately, they didnt have a few items on the food menu and didnt have the beer we wanted. The food could have been better - the signature burger was dry and I I didnt like the sause. My partners ordered fish and chips, the chips were okay, but the fish needed more flavour. The service was friendly but needs improvement. I was still eating when the waitress approached to take my plate. The hygiene in the toilets also needs improvement - there were tissues all over the floor. Overall, the atmosphere is nice and cosy, and if the food quality, hygiene, and service improve, it would be a great place.

Cosy pub, food portions good, pay for parking before you go in but taken off your bill. 2 and 3 course meals reasonable. Staff courteous and offered excellent customer service and was very helpful. Took constructive feedback on our roast dinner. Dessert was gorgeous especially donating to Macmillan having the apple pie and given extra custard was just right - thanks.

One of the waitress, didn t smile the whole night. Poor service. Refused to honour dessert order, because we paid for a bill already. Very disappointed.

An early Saturday dinner, staff were very tentative. Not entirely sure though how you can justify charging £1.99 for a small pot of peppercorn sauce to accompany the steak. Whats next, charging separately for salt and pepper too?

Just came back from my first trip to the swan and Bottle. Had a great evening with some friends. The food was fantastic, with good-sized portions and reasonably priced. The service was very good. We were served by a dark-haired girl with a nose ring, and she was very attentive and very polite. Couldnt get a real feel of the atmosphere as it was quite quiet, but it gave us all chance to have a good chat. I will definitely be returning.

A really nice and friendly pub right by the canal and on the London Loop path. It proved a fantastic haven after a day of walking. The food was excellent - simple and very well-cooked meals. I had a dish of mixed fish, which was exactly what I was hoping for in terms of good comfortable food, and when I casually asked if they had any spinach side dishes, they provided a bowl of it even though it wasnt on the menu! Also, the interior decor stood out, with lots of objects and exhibits to see - beautiful ornaments, glassware and display cases creating a very nice atmosphere. This is definitely a pub I want to come back to

Kids pizza was a Chicago town pizza for £12. The service tends to be quite slow, little presentation to the drinks, one ice cube and no fruit in the gin. No lemon/lime or salt with the tequila. The best bit of service came from the manager which is why I have rated it 4*, if not it would have been 2* at a push. Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly environment but the food was not an option

I have been eating out at this pub for the past 30 years and apart from it going down a few years ago Ive always had a good experience .& now it s back to its best .. BUT two weeks ago I arrange to meet a friend for lunch on a sat .. I pulled into car park fully intending to log in with car reg inside when my friend arrived .,unfortunately when they did arrive it was tell me they had a call that their father was unwell and had to cancel our lunch .. so I left only being there 15mins .. I now have a parking fine for £100 £60 if paid early !!!! I don t think I will be booking here again if 15mins in car park gets me a fine .. I now live in Banbury and had driven up for lunch & often use swan & bottle for lunch with friends who still live in the area !!!! I think I will choose elsewhere nxt time .. sue

I have been visiting this pub since 79, its changed a bit, with the times, but a favourite canal side spot.. The Swan and Bottle has been a popular Uxbridge pub for many years and remains so, it has a rich history, dating from the 17th century when it used to be two pubs, the Olde Swan and the Leather Bottle, its a large pub with low ceilings, open beams and plenty of wood panelling. It can be found on the Oxford road, between the Grand Union Canal and the River Colne near the historic Grade II listed Uxbridge Lock, and is a super nice spot in summer for snacks and food, as well as for evening meals anytime, and roast dinners at the weekend, when in winter the dining room is heated by a real log fire! - There is parking, which can fill up on a busy day! The public has several sections but only one bar, and these days its part of the Chef and Brewer chain (menu and beer-wise). It seems to be less crowded now, with Xerox no longer being across the road, however, what was the Xerox building has now become modern flats and so this could change! The food was good when we visited, but alas my guest reported the ladies were an area that could be improved in terms of cleanliness. Nice, good service this evening... And again today, late Nov 2023
