We were warmly welcomed and had a couple of excellent ales before crossing the road for an excellent indian meal. Nice atmosphere and good selection of beers.

Good real ale on fine form. My ham roll and “crispy things “ quite good except the small crispy bites were a bit soggy but tasty nevertheless.

Came in on a chilly January evening. The place was empty but we didn’t mind as we had the bar to ourselves! Drinks on draft and bottled were great and the bar staff were lovely. The best bit was that we had the jukebox to...ourselves too! We sunk several quid into that bad boy and got to reminisce with some classic tunes and banging tracks, which the bar staff appreciated too! We’d obviously created an atmosphere as the place started to fill up so our impromptu private party had to come to an end. We felt the pressure though as still had a few tracks to be played from our selection on the jukebox! Everyone seemed to enjoy most of them though and we left after having a happy few hours in what turned out to be a little gem of a pub, full of character and well kept. Thank you White Swan for a night to remember!More

Nipped in here for a couple of beers before eating across the road. Great atmosphere, friendly place, worth dropping into.

I stumbled upon the pub via their chalk board sign. Once inside I was served straight away by friendly bar staff. The choice of beers was good and it seemed I was there just before the lunch time rush. I found the whole experience enjoyable...and relaxing.More

Selling the excellent range of Kent-brewed Shepherd Neame real ales, this modest pub is a sweet spot to muse over a beer and watch the footie. Two rooms that merge into one around a big bar. Friendly Polish staff and a pleasant older clientele. A...classic City of London boozer.More

This is a proper pub, decent beers comfortable with good service. Food looked good though I have not tried it

I go to the White Swan for a drink with my friends before going across the road to the Halal Restaurant , so I have not eaten in the pub. A lovely busy atmosphere with lots of chatting going on. The staff are friendly and...eager to serve you as quick as they can. It is a Shepherd & Neame pub and only sells it's beer but it is always very fresh & healthy when it comes up. Like most London Pubs a bit pricey but that's the way of the world now unfortunately. A good pub to visit you will not be disappointed especially if you get a smile from the lovely blonde serving behind the bar !More

Just went for an early evening drink but found the staff so rude. We had the same drinks twice but the price changed depending who was serving. We had drinks on the bar but the bar staff decided to put all the empty glasses around...our drinks, was unreal, as I've never had this experience in any other pub before. The staff are stroppy under very little pressure, have poor English and limited maths. No chance of going back, and I will complain to brewery.More

Excellent bar on eastern edge of City. Handy for curry houses and pretty good for getting home from even if a short cab ride is required.

Quite close to my hotel so I decided to call in for a drink on a Friday evening. Very nice inside with a good range of draught beers at a reasonable price. The beer was good and the bar staff friendly. What more could you...ask for.More

We visited the Globe and watch a productions. The White Swan offered us good beer and a great patio from which to people watch. We didn't eat any food here but the service was great, the patio was comfortable and the beer was good.
