Excellent setting in the garden, helpful landlord and staff, prompt friendly service, good food at reasonable prices. Looking forward to a return visit.
Loved our lunch, very very quick service, had doggy ice cream and was a beautiful setting
The service was excellent and the food came quickly great meal will be calling again.
Food arrived quickly but it was tepid. Such a shame
Lovely garden space, overlooking Corfe Castle. Amazing good, served quickly, with friendly, helpful staff. So well organised. Would thoroughly recommend.
First time coming, not the last... lovely pub, lovely food and lovely staff
Few mistakes by waitress mains arrived before starters but overall the food was lovely, plenty of gluten free options for my friends and its a great pub
Good service and good food. Staff very polite and helpful.
Amazing on every level! Really friendly service, seated and served super fast and our dog was fetched water as soon as we were seated. Food was excellent! Portion size was was perfect and both our meals were really tasty and very well prepared. Great background music, great views and very welcoming atmosphere. Service was exemplary, professional but really friendly and personal as well. Would 100% recommend and will definitely be back ourselves. Thank you for a lovely lunch! x
Wonderful food and garden with fabulous views of Corfe Castle. Staff exceptionally friendly and helpful.
Great food and atmosphere. We sat in the beer garden with our two dogs for our meal. Very friendly and attentive staff.
The food was great and the setting is idyllic. It felt as if the service could have been quicker than it was, though the attention given by the staff was good.
Fabulous Sunday lunch and the ginger pudding was divine. Staff were as brilliant as always - even on such a busy day.
Terrible service. Food was awful and expensive avoid. Staff outside rude. Inside was OK.
Welcomed from the moment we entered the front door by a friendly barmaid who explained how to get to the garden. Perfect service throughout, delicious food, attentive staff... and an added bonus to get 10% off with our Steam train tickets! Have been before, and will return again!
The greyhound is one of our favourite places to go when visiting Swanage. We will often get a taxi up for a nice meal. Limited menu offered was lovely, sandwiches and pizzas offer a good/varied choice of toppings. We waited around 10 minutes to be approached and seated, despite speaking to the bar man when we walked in. A number of the team walked past without acknowledging us. Once seated we then waited just over 20 minutes for a drinks order to be taken. If the place was busy you could understand this, however at the busiest point there were around 8 tables. In the end had to call someone over and they cleared a table prior to coming over despite us having waiting so long. Once we were served initially the staff were attentive for additional drinks etc. We would not go back based on this experience alone, however, we have always previously had fantastic service so will take this as a blip in service and be back in summer.
Beautiful setting, friendly and efficient staff. Varied menu with Lovely food.
Great food very attentive can’t wait to be back there
Great food, quickly served and looked after throughout our visit by Erin, who despite basically , looking after everyone on her own managed to look after us and the other diners extremely well. Enjoyed it so much going back very soon.
Good food especially the red cabbage with apricots. Couldn’t finish and no room for dessert! A hot plate would have been good as the food did get cold quite quickly. Good service after an initial wait. Recommended and will go back
Great food as always … was put in side room to start but moved after we requested to be in main restaurant - have been ‘locked-away’ long enough and wanted social interaction.
Food came to table very quickly and was only warm
Booked in advance and we're taken to our table promptly. We had two dogs with us, which were welcomed. Food was very good and the view of Corfe Castle stunning. One downside was waiting nearly 30 minutes before any order was taken. I appreciate it was very busy, but a drinks order could have been taken.
Fabulous location , friendly ,efficient staff and wonderful food . What more could you ask for .
Lovely to be back and as ever, great service, fabulous food and welcoming hospitality.
Lovely atmosphere staff brilliant lovely garden with cover and heaters.Food great.
Ambiance, staff, service, food & drinks excellent. Sat in the garden with fabulous view of the Castle
First time at The Greyhound, and is certainly an experience we will be repeating! The shared ploughmans was just wonderful - highly recommended. Lovely, clean surroundings, and a joy to be able to eat inside the pub once again. The pub clearly highly values its reputation for service, and it pays off.
Fantastic food, great service and the views amazing. Will definitely go back again and highly recommend to others.
Amazing view, friendly staff. Food great, especially considering prime tourist position. Would definitely recommend
Firs time I'd seen my friend and been out since the pandemic started in March. The staff where great, they did forget our water but the waitress was very funny so we forgave her ;) Staff and pub had made a great effort to create a warm and festive atmosphere, not easy at the moment. Food was marvellous! We shared the raclette (with "special raclette cheese") and butternut squash hummous, both were delicious and ample portions. We had a lovely time and almost felt normal for a bit. Thanks :)
Love this pub. Lovely set up, great food. Friendly approachable staff.
Excellent Fondue evening. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Food delicious. Although very windy it added to the festive atmosphere.
The service was fantastic; exceptional professional and attentive. Highly recommended.
Well managed uder new giud lines and food was very good
Unfortunately our lunch was inedible. Grey food at the Greyhound. I wish I could put a photo up to show.
Staff were great table was brilliant and we were always checked upon. Food was below average. I read the website getting excited and it was all very basic stuff. I had the moules which were excellent but. Simple things like the chips and bread were really poor. My friends and family were disappointed with their meals I think mine was the nicest. Simple food can be made that little bit nicer with extra quality and it needs a bit of extra care.
Eaten here lots of times before, always good value and service. Would recommend. Good one way system to help with the COVID situation, felt safe
Wonderful staff - when we contacted to say our car and developed a flat battery they took our food order over the telephone to ensure we had a meal even if we arrived late. So friendly and helpful and when we finally arrived we were greeted wonderfully - and the meals were lovely - couldn't ask for a better experience 😀
Safe secure and great food. Lovely old pub and fantastic view
Burgers not the best for £15 a head!, our previous experience at the Greyhound was much better.
really enjoyed eating at the greyhound, we had pizzas which were lovely, Husband had fish and chips which to was lovely. Would definatley recomend, we were not rushed and staff were lovely, would definatley go back an all round very good experience.
Great experience all round will be going back (dog friendly to)
