One of Rhyl's oldest pubs, this popular local is situated just off the town centre. The lounge is wood panelled and used for both drinking and dining; background music is maintained at a pleasant volume and pictures on the wall show something of Rhyl's history. The public bar is equipped for darts and pool, and TVs show a variety of sports. Outside is a covered smoking and seating area. In 1951 the Swan was among the first pubs in Britain to hold a TV licence.
