Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Old Swan Uppers

Traditional village pub with a remodelled U-shaped interior that still retains some character with exposed timbers, etc. With three of the four handpumps in use, I found the regular London Pride and local Rebellion IPA along with the seasonal Winter Royal (£5.30) from the latter brewery. With a friendly welcome from the barman and a good-natured atmosphere all round, this is quite an appealing alternative to the posher establishments nearby.

Quinno _ left this review about The Old Swan Uppers

Very busy on our brief stop-off. The only change of note inside is that some of the beams have been painted white, never a good look in my book. The usual regional line-up (or ‘beers you have heard of’, depending on your bent). I went for a Marstons 61 Deep which was in very good shape, as befits this place’s reputation. They were getting set-up for a Eurovision party in the back room but the lass in the sequin dress very kindly allowed us to finish up our drinks rather than turfing us out into the squash of the main bar.

The most obviously pubby pub in Crookham, with a nice atmosphere and friendly service. Traditional low-ceilinged black beamed bar at front for drinkers with some half-wood panelling, inglenook fireplaces and rooms further back for dining. Side gravel-laid beer garden. Five pumps four ales; Butcombe (very good), Pride (very good) Courage Best and Doom Bar (I think). Perhaps a bit of a dull line-up for the hardened ale drinker but the quality of the two I tried made up for it. Rated 8

Very much in the olde English style in the front bar, rather less so in the rear restaurant area. Five pulls with regional Brewers wares, Brains, Fullers, St Austell and Wells among them plus Butcombe bitter. Fairly average condition and still under £4 a pint. Nice decor of beams from elsewhere and brass. It's also the nearest pub to Cookham railway station.
