★★★★★via Google“The Swan is in a very pretty spot where Claygate meets Esher. Excellent tapas and the inside is very well decorated of traditional pub meets modern tapas. Friendly staff. It isn’t cheap but the portions are generous and standard of food is high and consistently good.”
★★★★★via Google“I popped into the swan inn today with a friend and ordered some fish and chips which were delicious. Big thanks to Louie and Rachel who were both welcoming, friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. Great food, Great service and a really nice atmosphere. Definitely will be back!”

Had a feast of prawns fritters, scotch egg, delicious grilled asparagus, large grilled prawns. Patatas bravas - do request to have the tomato dip & mayo on the side as it is spicy and full of flavour. Once receing it, we were not keen when we saw the sauce being poured over the chips, which then overpowers the potatoes, something to remember for our next visit. Had delicious creamy ham & jamon crocketts, the jamon was strong in flovour. The sourdough bread was fresh & flavourful.”
★★★★★via Google“Stayed here a while back and found the pub restaurant side very good but as for staying in the b&b side absolutely appalling. Paint peeling off in places in the room, had absolutely no housekeeping for the 4 nights we were there (had to go ask at the bar for a fresh bin bag and toilet roll) which is not acceptable. The other thing I found a joke is there is 5 parking spaces which I’d presume are for guests, but no staff park in them leaving guests to go park far up the road. Really feel that with some effort it could be alot better.”

We ordered so much tapas as so much of the food sounded so lovely, I'm going back for sure as I think I got too full to enjoy all of the tapas that we ordered.”
★★★★★via Google“On arrival, I could not work out whether this is a pub or restaurant. I am from overseas so did not know anything about the place or it's reputation. It is neither and is trying to be a restaurant. The service staff were good but unfortunately the food was underwhelming. We were a party of 6 and had 3 dishes each, so we tried a pretty extensive range of the tapas dishes. The dishes that did dissappoint were the chicken skewers that were overcooked, dry and chewy and the 'taco' which was tasteless. I had just had a week in Spain so I did know what tapas was. The rest of the dishes were fine but none really stood out.”
★★★★★via Google“We had tapas in the restaurant, it came very highly recommended but didn’t quite live up to that. But still very good and the staff/service are very very good. Great people, clearly a very well run venue, would definitely go back”
★★★★★via Google“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely fantastic stay at The Swan Inn. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and looked after. The atmosphere was warm, relaxing and full of character. The room was clean, comfortable and very well maintained, and the food was excellent with great quality and service throughout our stay. A perfect place to relax, enjoy good hospitality and feel at home. We will definitely return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful stay.”
