“Late Mother’s Day and martial arts pass celebration”
+Seen so many good reports on the newly refurbished Swan and Royal. Well it was amazing. Firstly the staff are a credit to you. Keep them ! The food was great too. The cheese pie had cheese in it ! Now so many serve cheese pie with more potatoes and onions than the bland cheese they use. This was soooo tasty. Loved it. We all ate what we were given and thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you 🙏 will definitely be back. Soon ! 😋 ❤️

+We have eaten here a few times and the food and service has always been exceptional. Whether just having a drink or something to eat , you will always be served by professional , welcoming members of staff, especially Curtis . If you are looking for a warm place to enjoy a drink or something to eat , The Swan is definitely worth a visit and we highly recommend it . Andrew & Julie

“Very Classy Decor and Fabulous Food”
+After a recent refurb, the Swan and Royal looks amazing. The decor is very classy and inviting. It's no longer the karaoke bar that it used to be, now much more refined and serves fabulous food.

“Definitely worth a go”
+Great meal at The Swan & Royal in Clitheroe tonight, it’s years since I have been in, someone told me it had been taken over by a young entrepreneur. Well I must say amazing fish & chips, clean batter and just the right amount of mushy peas. Loved it… my partner had cheese pie and he really enjoyed it, our friends had fish pie and said it was the best. Will definitely be calling back again and the bill was pleasantly surprising 😍

“Amazing how this has improved 😀”
+We called for a midweek lunch and were delighted to find the place was more or less full. The food was really tasty and it had generous sized portions. We last called many years ago and the new front of house décor was beautiful and had a cottage type/ country pub feel The staff were very friendly and very helpful. I can see that once again. The Swan and Royal is now back to its former glory and a very welcome addition to the main centre of Clitheroe for food and drink.
