About This Pub

Ah, the Old Swan Inn – it's one of those places that just hits the spot for a relaxed afternoon or a lively evening in Paisley. From what I've gathered from the reviews, it's got this warm, welcoming vibe that really draws you in, especially if you're up for some live music; folks rave about the gigs and how they make every visit feel special. The staff sound like absolute stars, always on hand with a smile and quick service, and the drinks are sensibly priced, so you won't feel short-changed. It's got a solid 4.6 rating, which isn't surprising given the glowing feedback from recent visitors who've had brilliant nights out. On the flip side, it's a shame there's no website to easily look up what's on or get more details, and the opening times can seem a bit all over the place, which might catch you out if you're planning ahead. All in all, though, it's a gem of a spot – I'd say give it a try if you're in the area; you might just end up making it your regular haunt!

A wee afternoon out with friends. We had a wee afternoon tea which for the cost was absolutely fine. Great atmosphere, drinks reasonably priced and service great.
