Swan, Shakespeare's GlobeReviews 

I booked this for 12 people back in June and the food was truly terrible. First we received hardly any of the side dishes that we had ordered. Secondly, most of the main courses were truly terrible from a culinary point of view - the chicken appeared to be some sort of reconstituted mush, rather than proper pieces of chicken and generally our entire party left unsatisfied with the standard of the food. We did not let it spoil the occasion which was the meeting of two families for the first time ahead of a wedding, but it was a real disappointment to find that a restaurant in such a prestigious location could perform so badly food wise (the service was ok). We have now had the wedding and I have been meaning to writing this review for some time.
I was also unhappy that booking via the intermediary (I think it was 'Design my Night' that had to be used as you could not book direct), had a checkbox for terms and condition that had to be completed but the page to view them was not available.
Think twice before you book this venue for a special occasion.

Terrible pushy service and then we were ignored!

Some of the meals were below par considering the price.

Not surprisingly the restaurant was more than 1/2 empty on a Friday night.

Had a drink before and after the performance. Nice lager, great views. But my friend ordered a half pint of cider and was charged £4-40. When I queried this I was told it was more than half a pint...

Amazing food with beautiful view. Lovely staff and good quality service.

Delicious foods and drinks, friendly staff and great service

Went here for an anniversary breakfast on Thursday 29th August at 8.30am. It was just after opening and the staff were ready for work with a great attitude. The female staff member (sorry, I don't know her name) in particular, really helped us as we have dietary restrictions. I recommend this place for the views, the staff and the food was fine too.

me and my father really enjoyed this restaurant

Our photographers really liked their decor and atmosphere. Good food and service. Highly recommend!

I've been coming here for years and it never loses it's appeal. As a previous reviewer commented, it is nice to find somewhere unique along the river amongst the many chains. With it's beautiful decor and exquisite food it is hard to find a better venue along the Thames to enjoy a meal or a few drinks.

I had a great meal with friends.The setting and decor are great and the service was welcoming and attentive.

The food and drink was excellent....the chocolate sharing dessert is as good as it sounds!

I can thoroughly recommend the restaurant and bar. The restaurant food, service and ambience are excellent. The views of the Thames and St Pauls are stunning, especially at night. We always have a drink in the bar before eating. The bar has a lively and friendly atmosphere and great cocktails! We always look forward to going to the Swan at the Globe.

I've been lucky enough to visit this delightful restaurant on more than one occasion of late. Every visit has left me looking forward to the next.

The location is perfect. Views across the Thames and towards St Pauls Cathedral are a great addition to any meal.

I found the staff to be attentive and enthusiastic without becoming overbearing. Something that a lot of restaurants struggle with.

Best of all is the food. Each of the meals I have eaten at The Swan at The Globe has left me with a sleepy look of complete satisfaction on my face as I meander home along the riverside.

Had a really lovely evening here, drinks in the bar followed by dinner upstairs. Really good food, couldn't fault it, what I love about this place is the classy, relaxed feel to it. Great design to it too. And of course the view is fantastic! Also I should mention the waiter was very attentive. 10/10.

We had the most amazing evening. The staff, food, and view combined made for one of the most romantic and care free evenings I've had in london. Would recommened the Swan for many occasions whether it be for a romantic evening or a relaxed dinner with colleagues.

Amazing food in an amazing environment.
