Moby Duck left this review about Busby and Wilds
This pub seems to be about 75% a restaurant with a slightly less formal area presumably aimed at the lone drinker but still set for food should they feel peckish. In fact I was suggested I may prefer the beer garden by the landlady/manageress, she was right. There is one handpump, undressed on my visit, on the keg front there were two or three from Big Hug Brewery everything else was standard fayre.Can't see a return to this one.

Strongers . left this review about The Swan
I tried to visit the Swan early last year, but unfortunately it used to stay closed on Tuesdays for some strange reason. It has now been renamed Busby and Wilds and is open seven days a week. I visited on Friday night a couple of weeks ago when there were few other customers, but I received a warm welcome. The bar is located on the rear wall where Stella, Becks Vier, Guinness and Aspells cider are available on draught. Two hand pumps were also drawing Tribute and Blindfold Welsh cider.
Food is served and the cheapest main on the menu is the burger which comes in at £9.50 so this isn’t the cheapest place to eat. Bar snacks are available and I paid £2 for the best pork scratchings I have ever ordered.
There was some background music playing and I didn’t spot any gaming machines or televisions.
At the rear is a small beer garden that houses some picnic tables.
This place maybe a little too gastro for some, but I liked it and will return if in the area again.
