Swan with Two Necks - Pendleton
First off, I'm sure I've got a better photo of The Swan With Two Necks somewhere. This one's taken on a (not uncommon) drizzly day, missing out any of the nearby buildings that give Pendleton such character. It's the kind of place you have to dodge art groups painting the rural idyll. Anyway, despite this photo, the Swan is one of those great places to sit outside on a warm day.
Inside, the decor is slightly twee - lots of ornamental teapots line the walls, but it's a friendly place and you soon feel at home. The beer selection is excellent and unusual. There's usually 4 real ales on tap, and often I've not heard of a couple of them. These are rotated pretty regularly and are always well kept. The food is home-cooked with care and is excellent value.
So, a pub in an idyllic village undiscovered by tourists, serving great beer & food. What are you waiting for?

Dipped into the beer guide for somewhere different. It proved an excellent choice. The Morroccan Lamb was superb and very satisfying. The choice of beers first class: Woodforde Wherry, One from Essex a prize winner, Slaters and Copper Dragon. The place was warm, the food and ale superb. Well worth the trip out from Keighley.
On our last visit was a cat on the prowl...not very nice if you are dining!!
me and my family have been going to the swan for many years mostly on sundays or valentines day,mothers day or christmas time and the food is always cooked to a high standard,the choice you have is unbeliveable for the price and you can spend a good 15 mins trying to decide,over the years we have tried alot on the menue board and ever time is excellent food thats why we keep going back only a small complain if we had to and maybe a little refurbish in the place with new comfy chairs and a lick of paint would make it perfect
swan at pendleton is a hidden gem is got great food and drinks cosy fires in winter lovely relaxing beer garden in the summer,excellent menue to choose from thats why after trying other places alsofor many we always come back to the swan because we now know its the best but good we have some comfy new chairs in there please perfect then

My favourite pub! Fantastic food and beer...and it is a pleasure to dine in the company of the 24 year old white cat which guards the fireplace.
Definitely a hidden gem within the Ribble Valley.
Fantastic choice of menu, all beautifully and freshly cooked at a VERY reasonable price. We are always amazed as to how they can serve such a large and varied menu so very quickly. The service is simply superb and you will truly enjoy the ambience of a wonderfully warm and inviting village pub.
If you like to eat well ....... This is the place for you !
Christmas Day lunch is an experience to behold !
