A lovely birthday dinner. Staff were very friendly and attentive. The food was amazing, made all the more special with a David Attenborough 100th Birthday Menu. The asparagus and goats cheese starter was incredible.

We had a fantastic evening at The Greyhound last night. The service was outstanding — really attentive throughout and the team were so knowledgeable about both the food and drink, which made a real difference. Our waiter was professional, engaging, and struck that perfect balance of being present without ever being intrusive. It genuinely added to the whole experience. We had the best time and will definitely be back.
