The Swan

My new go-to for casual sports bar beers and food. The food is very solid. Service usually great. I prefer to sit at the bar. The decor and overall atmosphere is much higher than your average sports bar. Not a dive, but not fancy or pretentious. Very comfortable. Great prices.I especially like the burger, chicken sandwich, and the salmon salad.

This used to be another spot, The Swan moved in and did the remix. This is a friendly after work spot located in Bed-Stuy. TV's are everywhere, it was soccer on tonight and the bar was going wild. The drinks are top shelf and flowing, the prices are affordable, and this bartender will mix whatever you desire. I was invited here for after work drinks and The Swan did not disappoint. The service is friendly, the bartender is attentive, and there's a wonderful seating area in the back yard if the bar scene is not for you. I had Espolòn Tequila and pineapple juice which was s tasty and not too sweet. The shots of Espolòn Tequila made my night. I like my wings HOT. The hot wings with cayenne based sauce and ranch were definitely worth the trip.Come out and enjoy the casual atmosphere on any night, seating also available out front. The after work prices are available on Saturdays and wait for it... they have alcoholic smoothies (did I say that correctly?)Come thru support local business.

Great restaurant and sports bar in bedstuy. Beautiful decor with televisions throughout to watch your favorite sport (soccer, football, basketball ball... they have it all!) They have Taco Tuesdays so if you love sports and Tacos, Tuesday is your day!I enjoyed the ambiance. It's perfect for drinks with friends or a casual date. Beautiful decor and lighting and it wasn't too loud so you wouldn't have to speak loudly to be heard. Service was also quick and friendly. I'd definitely be returning soon.*Not 100% sure but i believe this establishment was previously called Black Swan. I think it's under new management and I like this version! A LOT!Give it a try.

- friendly service- spacious- huge portions - great for watching games, no bad seats (other than the corridor)- three bathrooms- alright mozz sticks- decent chicken bites- I loved the kale ceasar, with vinaigrette instead of ceasar- fried are regular- chicken sandwich was good - throwback soundtrack was great!

Martin builds some of the best cocktails I've tasted in this area and the steak was great. (Kudos to the chef) Loved the ambiance and location as well.

The carbonara is great! Liked the chili and wings, too. And can't go wrong with pub fries. The waiter was nice, too. Much bigger inside than it looks! So nice to eat in a bar that doesn't smell like stale beer.

This is a solid neighborhood pub/sports bar, with solid food and drinks, and a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere. The staff is friendly, and it's a good place to watch a game. I recently tried the salmon salad, which was pretty good. The bar food standards - mozzarella sticks, wings, fries, nachos, etc. - are good and will satisfy your bar food cravings (but they aren't distinguishable from a lot of other pub-style bars in Brooklyn). I wish the beer menu featured more craft options, but what's currently available offer enough variety that you'll probably be able to find something you want. Overall, you're going to come here more for the vibe - an easy place to hang with friends and watch a game or strike up a conversation with the bartender - than the food or drinks, but what's on offer is satisfying and good enough for return trips.

So, the other day we went to SWAN ( nee: BLACK SWAN ), and it's current version is just basically the exact same thing, same decor, same layout, same same, except this version came with a lovely Irish lass whose accent was sooooo spot on and almost too perfect that the whole rest of the day I thought about how this was a Brooklyn waitress who goes home after a long shift at SWAN and is, in fact, not from Ireland, never been to Ireland, and has been fooling hundreds of folks for as long as she's worked there.Suffice to say, the food is mid at best, the portions are WAY OUT OF CONTROL though. I mean, seriously, nice job with taking care of folks but you could cut costs on your to go boxes if you could manage the portions a bit better. The kids menu is out of control. There was so much food. Kids don't eat that much food. My kids spent 99% of the time colouring on the menu. SOOOO MANY tater tots! SOOOOOOOO much Mac n Cheese. Just crazy servings.All and all, I'm glad this place didn't turn into condos like the rest of Bedford ave. It'll do just fine.

No frills bar food during happy hour. Loved the chicken bites and pretzel! We also got the mozzarella sticks and they were good.

I love this bar. Just has the best servers great ambiance the food is consistently good and everytime I leave happy. This is like my haven
