18th and 19th July 2025
What a fabulous weekend we had celebrating our birthday – who can believe it is 6 years since The Swan was saved from the hands of developers to become THE community pub in Windsor!
On Friday, the sun shone, and Micky did some deals on summer-y, celebratory drinks while Girls Record Lounge played the great soundtrack to our afternoon party. FoTS volunteer chefs turned their hands to pizzas (and boy, did they fly out of the kitchen!) and everyone loved the special Swan Birthday Cake and Cupcakes.
Saturday was another day, and from early in the morning the heavens opened! Plan B sprung into action and DJ Dazz set up to play a chilled playlist in the bar rather than from the outdoor stage. Lou’s new homemade burger patties and chunky chips got a big thumbs up and the pizzas continued to be popular!
We had a special Swan Bingo session which captured the imagination of seasoned players and newbies alike …
… and the Chatty Ladies got the dancing going with gusto!
And then, as if by magic, the rain stopped, the evening sun came out, and the Windsor Ukulele Band were able to play into the night to a packed Courtyard. And not to forget, the cutting and sharing of Anne’s fabulous Birthday Cake!
A great couple of days, with a great community vibe – huge thanks go to all our volunteers, staff and you, our loyal customers, for making it a fitting celebration of our little pub. Here’s to another year at The Swan!
