The Swan Tavern, West Wimbledon
The Swan has been a favourite haunt of mine for several years now, and I feel obliged to share my opinions with you all. A change of management has occured since the 'australians behind bar' suffered such a horrendous prison sentence. Firstly, they were never that bad. On the contrary, they were extremely personable. Secondly, australia is spely with a capital A!
Incongruous to the latest reviewer, I find the interior to be somewhat enchanting; oozing charm and romanticism from a 40's film noir.
The management, a very personable young lady and her friendly family, have proved to be extremely pleasant and accommodating addition to a legacy that harks back to the day of Dick Turpin, I will sadly miss a certain member of staff who has recently left to travel the world. And perhaps this is where The Swan is so valued- its ability to take on young staff, offer them invaluable experience working within a safe and stable environment, and providing excellent service in the meantime.
Reviewers that insult The Swan insult my very own integrity, for as a filmmaker and teacher I can think of no other place (locally) I would rather spend time relaxing, conversing and being inspired.!
