The Swan, W2

Young's Special and London Pride on – Pride at £3 a pint is the going rate for this area I suppose. This is a big old pub next to Hyde Park. It has a great location, but in my opinion not much in the way of character. However it seems to serve its main purpose, apparently as a tourist restaurant. There was a rather pervasive smell of fish and chips when I was in. I suppose as pub it's OK-ish, but I can't see much reason to return.
