A great selection of beers and real ales on tap, wines, spirits and a warm friendly welcome!
The Swan is a Grade II listed 17th Century traditional coaching inn located on the High Street in heart of the village of Markyate. Featuring the original exposed internal timber frames, an open fireplace that is lit during the winter, various cosy areas to sit down to chat, or pull up a stool to the main bar.
In addition to the main pub, the Swan has its own separate function room – The Barn – at 300 years old, the Barn has been converted sympathetically to a modern space which can cater for all needs. For more info see here

Surprise birthday party 🎉 Fantastic. Good bar and selection of beers and the usual spirits. Nice and cosy in feel, but plenty of room to socialize and dance.
Great find. Clean and welcoming and the food was great too! The landlord was exceptionally good. We were waiting outside for our taxi and he made us come back in because it was so cold, even though my husband was eating a kebab from over the road (we ate early evening).
Had my wedding here. Beautiful venue, very accommodating landlord and staff. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect even acting as the DJ for music to walk down the isle to. Can't say enough positive things.
Popped in a couple of weeks ago, when I was at the end an 8 mile walk around Flamsted and Markyate. It was just a quick refreshment stop. I didn't eat on this occasion. I must say its one of the cleanest pubs I have ever been in, it had a really nice feel to it and I would definitely visit again, based on this alone.
Would highly recommend the pub for its’ vibrant atmosphere, very friendly staff and talented chef trying something new each time we visit. Have enjoyed a family breakfast this morning - very good traditional food with a modern twist. Many thanks Kyle and Jon! Definitely coming back.
