What User likes about The Swallows Return:
I was here for motherly day meal and I have to say we all had a great time. the food was well cooked and the interior of the restaurant is fantastic. friendly helpful service! View all feedback. What User doesn't like about The Swallows Return:
we arrived on time to say only because of kitchen problem, the whole Sunday menu was not available. So, in a very short time my disabled woman and I had to eat alternatives to the finest. since this was an online booking, we think that management has given us at least one excuse from this situation. very poor service.

Swallows Return has garnered mixed experiences from guests, marked by recurring issues with reservation management. While some diners enjoyed well-prepared meals in a charming setting with friendly service, others faced significant delays, kitchen problems, and improper handling of online bookings. Complaints about long waits between courses and quality inconsistencies, particularly on busy occasions like Mother’s Day, have surfaced. Despite these flaws, prompt resolution of issues and a generally pleasant dining atmosphere suggest potential for improvement. Overall, while many customers had delightful celebrations, others recommend caution until operational challenges are fully addressed.
