04Since 1913
From grain store to neighbourhood pub
Built in 1913 for the grain trade. Home to Swan’s since 1989. The heavy timber, brick walls and old Buckerfields sign tell the story.

The building, 1913 to today.
Grain, feed and farm supplies came first. The 1913 warehouse became Buckerfields' downtown store, then Swan's in 1989.

The brewery years
A big part of the Swan's story
Swan's has a long brewery history, and the signs and art remain throughout the building. Today, you can order local beer on tap and see reminders of the brewery years around the room.
