Ye Olde Whyte Swanne

A quaint little pub, located on the main street in Louth, opposite Mackays. It serves food at reasonable prices and is usually quite popular. However the front bar area is very small and you are lucky if you can ever get a table there. There is a larger dinning area at the back though and this is ok, but not as nice. The food is pretty good and reasonably priced.

Lovely little pub, dating back to 1612 or
Olde Whyte Swanne at Louth was once a coaching inn and it is the oldest pub in Louth. Wood panelled, with old beams and quarry tiles, this delightful pub serves good value food. There is limited overnight accommodation.
Well presented Bass and a guest beer.
Nestling close to Louth Parish Church, which has the tallest spire of any Parish Church in England.
Three cosy rooms, especially the snug, which has a nice coal fire.
Regular changes of Real Ales.
Serves good food, try the home made Stilton and Broccoli quiche, good beer and there is a sausage festival held at the end of May.
A chair by the fire is not to be sat it. it was the chair of a long term customer who died and he is said to get cross if anyone sits in it.
It is also supposedly haunted by the ghost of a tall man, wearing a white cape. Until recently he was seen on frequent occasions, normally manifesting just before midnight.
Worthfinding when visiting this great market Town and as it is on the edge of the market place it is easy to find.
The market is a large old fashion type. On Weds it also has a farmers auction in the centre with rabbits and chickens, sacks of veg, bits of farm machinery etc. Sat. is also market day.
