The Swan Inn - East Dunbartonshire

The Lennoxtown Swan Inn closed in early 2012 and reopened in October 2012, but it is now very different from its previous friendly pub restaurant atmosphere. Many beloved features such as fireside couches, live music, family and dog-friendly sections, excellent food from the West Brewing Company, and drink promotions are now gone. The new management has implemented disappointing policies that have changed the vibe of the pub, with low-quality drinks, bright lights, and loud televisions playing news channels. The lack of food service is a major letdown, as the previous menu offered great deals like 2 can dine for £12.99 for a two-course meal with wine. The new Swan Inn currently does not serve any food, with no concrete plans to start anytime soon. The drinks menu has also shifted to focus on shots and a 'bomb menu' for heavy drinkers, rather than the quality beers they used to offer. This change in atmosphere has led to incidents of fighting and vandalism in the pub shortly after its reopening. The pub now has a 'no tracksuits' sign on the door, but it is unclear who the target demographic is without families, dog owners, or casual patrons. Overall, the new Swan Inn has lost its charm and appeal, and it is a disappointment to see its decline from its previous reputation as a welcoming pub restaurant.

The Lennoxtown Swan Inn closed down earlier in the year and reopened in October, but the new establishment is a far cry from its previous friendly pub restaurant atmosphere. The cozy fireside couches, family-friendly vibe, dog-friendly section, delicious food, West Brewing Company beer, and drink specials are all gone. Instead, the new management has implemented disappointing changes such as low-quality drinks, bright lights, and loud televisions showing BBC News. Staff have admitted to implementing confusing and unappealing policies that do not cater to the traditional clientele of Lennoxtown. The lack of food service is particularly disappointing, as the previous Swan Inn was known for its excellent dining options. The new Swan Inn currently has no plans to serve food, with potential plans for basic pub grub in the future. The drinks menu has also changed drastically, with Jagermeister shots and a bomb menu targeted towards heavy drinkers. The atmosphere of the pub has shifted to a rowdier crowd, evident in recent incidents of fighting and vandalism. The lack of family-friendly amenities, music, and cozy ambience has left many patrons disillusioned with the new direction of the Swan Inn. With a new "no tracksuits" policy and bars still on the windows, the pub's target demographic is unclear. It is a shame to see the decline of the once-beloved Swan Inn.
