Re: The Swan
THE Swan pub in St Peter Port is the only locally-based new entry in this year’s Michelin food guide.
New owner Christophe Gaultier was delighted to feature in the guide for Great Britain & Ireland.
He bought the pub with his partner, Briony Ferbrache, in December last year.
‘A lady came and ate in the pub last year and when she had finished she asked to have a word. That was when she said she was a Michelin inspector. I was shocked,’ said Mr Gaultier.
‘She was very pleased with everything and thought it was a beautiful traditional pub with an amazing atmosphere.’
There was a further secret inspection of the upstairs restaurant by the guide, but Mr Gaultier did not know when that had happened.
He said a customer had recommended the pub and that had prompted the visit.

Great to see a local pub receive this recognition...

I`ve heard some good reports about the food but unfortunately I wouldn`t ever go there until there is a change in management

And what's wrong with the management? Howard Holland has nothing to do with the place any more.

Re: The Swan
I agree. I think it's by far the best pub and most well run in town. The manager is always there unlike a lot of the other pubs and he actually seems to care if everybody is happy. :Luv 1:
