The Swan is a little pub on the edge of Lewes town, which is vibrant and busy, traditional and inclusive, quirky and individual. The pub is a traditional, old-fashioned two bar public house. It’s low ceilings, wonky walls and open fire are every bit the country pub of yesteryear. The earliest known recorded reference to the Swan appears in the Lewes Journal 1760, which tells the story of a stranger from foreign shores who arrived at the Swan looking for shelter and refreshment. He was set upon by ruffians, beaten and robbed. Visitors can expect a warm and friendly welcome. In the winter the fires are roaring, in the summer the vast, award winning garden is an absolute delight. Food is served all day, have a vinyl only music policy, purvey delicious well made drinks and are proud of the buzzy, jovial atmosphere which encourages conversation, merriment and mirth. The pub takes pride in being a true community gem which caters for all. Cider is Westons Rosie's Pig.
