Fodor's Expert Review The Swan

In the center of Broadway, this pub-restaurant makes a handy stop for a snack, lunch, drink, or something more substantial. Among the hot dishes you're likely to find slow-cooked corned salt-beef hash or sticky crispy duck salad; tapots (small British tapas-style dishes) and tasting platters are a popular alternative. There's a good wine cellar and plenty of cask ales available. Service may be occasionally slapdash and the place can get congested, but on a weekday it's cozy and convivial, with an open fire in winter and comfortable seating. The imaginative decor blends the traditional and trendy with large mirrors, log-studded walls, and eye-catching knickknacks.
