Welcome To The Elm Tree Inn, Swanwick
Welcome to The Elm Tree, Swanwick – a British Free House that brings you old fashioned traditions – with a new twist.
Whatever the time of year, you’ll find a warm welcome waiting. Settle down by our roaring log fire when it’s chilly, or enjoy a drink in our lovely garden when the sun is shining. From relaxed drinks and catch-ups with friends to home-cooked meals and traditional Sunday roasts, The Elm Tree is a place to eat, drink and unwind.
You’ll find us on the corner of Swanwick Lane and Botley Road, just a stone’s throw from the beautiful Holly Hill Woodland Park and Swanwick Marina – perfectly placed for a drink or something to eat after a walk.
Dogs are very welcome in the pub and garden, although they are not permitted in the restaurant area.
