About This Pub
Ah, The Swan in Hindley Green – it's one of those neighbourhood spots that just feels like a proper British pub, you know? From the reviews, it's clear folks love the warm welcomes from the staff and regulars; it's that kind of place where you can pop in for a chat and end up staying for hours. The beer is spot on, and they've got a great setup for catching the footie or any live sports, which is always a winner on a weekend. Oh, and if you're after a bite, their Sunday roasts sound like a treat – massive portions at a fair price, perfect for a lazy afternoon. But, to be fair, it's not all roses; there was that one off-putting story about the landlord getting a bit heated over parking, which might make you think twice about where you leave your car. Still, with most people raving about it, I'd say it's worth giving it a go – just go in with an open mind and enjoy the good bits. It's those little local gems that make pubbing around here so enjoyable, really.

Thank you to the landlord at The Swan,
Hindley Green who chased me down the road shouting at me down the road for parking my car on his carpark - I was walking to do an errand to return half an hour later for a drink meeting my husband in your pub. Thank you for threatening to ticket my car. Thank you for embarrassing me in front of the whole beer garden especially the group of workmen who laughed at me. Thanks for the humiliation of having to walk through the beer garden as everyone stared at me!
Now you can thank me for supporting your business and spending my money on numerous occasions since you have re-opened and prior to lockdown.
