Restaurant

Bar & Garden

We have a selection of sandwiches and snacks available in the riverside garden and the bar. We aim to serve food in the bar & riveside garden until 5pm. However, during busy periods for the restaurant me may need to pause service of this menu.

We don't take bookings for these tables. If you want to be sure of eating on your visit it's best to book a table in the restaurant.

The riverside garden closes at dusk.

Our menu changes frequently as we use local seasonal produce. We try to keep the website copy up to date but availability of some dishes may change day to day.

On busy days, we occasionally need to stop offering bar food to 'walk in' customers for a short period to allow the kitchen to catch up with orders.

Bookings

We only take bookings for restaurant areas. The fastest way to book is here online. Unfortunately, same day tables AREN'T bookable online but you can always still email mail@thehennyswan.co.uk or call 01787 267 953 and leave a message.

If you email or telephone, please leave as many relevant details as possible and we will get back to you as soon as we are able. If we are busy, this may not be for quite some time. Sorry.

Online bookings can be made up to 60 days in advance. Our largest online booking size at this time is 10 persons.

On The Water

Visiting us by Water

You can visit us by canoe, kayak etc. Please 'park' your boat in the garden so the decking areas remain clear.

Boat Launching - Please read carefully:

Parking space has become an issue, please don't rely on launching here as parking preference will be given to patrons who remain on the premises. Our overflow car park is locked until the pub opens.

Subject to available parking, launching/return is generally permitted Monday to Friday from 10:30am. Over the weekend, launching is available once the pub opens (11:30 Saturday, 12:00 Sunday). The riverside garden closes at dusk so you must be back by then.

Please come and see us before launching any craft. There is a £5 charge per person to launch that can be redeemed at full value on purchases at the bar on the date issued.

Things change from time to time, so please check here regularly.
