About the Swan & Bottle – your local country pub in Uxbridge

On the outskirts of Greater London, you’ll find the charming riverside town of Uxbridge. As the last stop on both the Piccadilly line and Metropolitan line, this town is the perfect place to park up, grab your Oyster card and jump onto the London Underground to explore the capital city. That is if you can bring yourself to leave our lovely little town. 

With handsome countryside and highlights like the Colne Valley Regional Park right on our doorstep, it’s easy to forget just how close we are to the hustle and bustle of the capital. Unless that’s what you’re escaping in the first place. Either way, a warm welcome and a delicious meal always awaits at the Swan & Bottle, one of the best pubs in Uxbridge.

Riverside rusticity

Whether you’re looking for a riverside escape or a cosy spot to unwind after exploring Uxbridge’s unique blend of metropolitan buzz set against countryside beauty, the Swan & Bottle is a perfect pub destination for any occasion. 

The town itself has a history that calls back to the English civil war of the 1600s, and a university named after famous engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel, which means there are students and scholars abound on the streets. And away from the countryside and closer to the city, Uxbridge’s high street has a unique urban charm of its own — with a large shopping centre and restaurants aplenty. 

What’s more, the town and region is split by picturesque canals, home to iconic canal barges that pass by at a leisurely pace on their way to and from the Colne Valley Regional Park, where you’ll find endless lovely walks. And the best place to see those barges is from the beer garden of one of the best countryside pubs in Uxbridge, the Swan & Bottle. 

 

Pair history with modernity

Part of what’s so special about the Swan & Bottle is the character found within our walls. In the June 1901 edition of The Anglo Saxon Review, the Reverend William John Loftie wrote of how becalming he found “those gabled houses, those long bridges, that placid stream and the trees and gardens round that old fishing inn, the Swan and Bottle”. So if you take the word of the honourable reverend as gospel, you’ll be rewarded when you visit us. 

Of course, this country pub in Uxbridge has changed a little since 1901, adding modern amenities like free Wi-Fi and on-site parking. So whether you’re joining us for a delicious meal, some drinks with friends or even a special celebration, we’ve got you covered. 

What’s more, if you’re in the area for a relaxing dog walk, bring along your pet to our dog-friendly pub and we’ll be sure to provide for them as much as we do for you.
