The iconic Shakespeare Globe Theatre needs no introduction, though its flagship restaurant Swan is a lesser-known gem. Get unbeatable views of the city while dining on a delicious Brunch in our modern British restaurant in Bankside.

Low-slung and cosy, the interior here is as inviting as they come and is steeped in history, with beautiful views of St Paul's Cathedral and other landmarks from the window seats.

Inspired by the seasons, our chefs use only the best British ingredients on our menus. Our seafoods come exclusively from UK waters, while our meat is all sourced from Cumbria, supporting family-run Lake District fells and smallholdings. And with English wines, London beers, and cheese from nearby Neal’s Yard Dairy in Borough Market, we’re in love with local on the plate and in your glass.

Swan's weekend brunch is the perfect occasion to celebrate your weekend, with a range of delicious dishes and drinks including mimosas, bloody and virgin Marys and a selection of cold, fresh pressé.

From light and healthy fruit bowls with coconut yoghurt and granola to sweeter, or savoury, pancakes with strawberries, Chantilly cream and maple syrup or bacon and maple syrup, this menu is sure to impress. Or, if you're more of a savoury fan, eggs royale, benedict and florentine never fail to satisfy. 

Swan London is conveniently located for you to visit, whether you're a local or you're on a weekend trip to London, with Southwark Underground Station just under five minutes away on foot.

    Oh my goodness! We absolutely adore this place! We’ve been here for both Christmas and summer, and it’s been a delightful experience. They offer a wide variety of vegan options, and the food is simply delicious! Our server, Riyas, was exceptional. He was incredibly helpful in assisting us with our dairy-free accommodation, and his tea selection was simply superb. And let’s not forget the breathtaking views from the Thames—they add to the overall great memories!

    We went to this pub before heading to the Globe theater —just for a gin tonic and a quick meal. It's really charming and very well-kept. The staff, especially the waitress who served us, was extremely friendly and kind. I definitely recommend this place because they have a great selection of cocktails and dishes, ranging from simple and quick bites to more substantial options. It's an excellent spot, and I would definitely like to return. Highly recommended!

    The Swan restaurant is absolutely amazing! The service from the time we walked in to the time we left was spectacular. The food was SO delicious. I highly recommend the Sunday roast, specifically the beef one. If you're debating on trying The Swan, it is most definitely worth it!
