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.

    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.

    We’ve had one of the most memorable evenings at the Swan. Firstly, we were a little bit apprehensive of booking to the monthly quiz, due to our overall low IQ average but when we turned up - we were made feel immediately at home. The food came out in minutes and our demanding children were super happy. Jerry was an entertainer as a host and the quiz itself was super interesting. Edwin who runs the pub looked after us super well! all in all an amazing experience - thank you THYME!!!! I wish we knew all the answers…OUCH Bottom line / I have never been made feel so stupid and at the same time so happy to pay the bill, which was a humble amount for what a pub meal is these days. Coming back ASAP!!!!!! Quality 10/10
