Greyhound Inn in East Devon - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Visited The Greyhound today for birthday lunch..had a really lovely time, excellent menu choices and everyone enjoyed their meal..served hot and fresh. The service was lovely too..would not hesitate to return to this lovely pub

we had dinner and drink the atmosphere was really good, staff were friendly, we both had the pie of the day, lamb, chorizo and oregano. the pie had way to much salt in, the rest of the meal was fine and gravy was really good. just let down by the amount of salt in pie

As always superb, the food was to die for and each mouth full was a delight. Young serving staff also excellent with a particular 'Thank You' to Alexander!

Lovely dinner in the bar on a Saturday night - fish special gurnard with samphire - and really good English breakfast in the morning. Room compact, clean comfortable and nice bathroom.

I had seafood gratin it was very tasty ,,, then the beef roast ,, extra cauliflower cheese on the side was only £2: i was really happy ,, big home made yorkie ,,, nice red wine ,,, good service , clean toilets ,,,,, a good xmas vibe ,, i would go back nxt time im in honiton

This was our second visit to this lovely country gem. We have our daughter nearby we regularly come to visit, and this time for an early Christmas together with our other children. Rooms, food, staff and owners all top notch - couldn't be more hospitable or friendly. Being in the hospitality industry ourselves we totally appreciate this. We will return again, thanks John and Ellen !!

Our visit was for dinner, an overnight stay and breakfast, to celebrate my husband’s birthday. We found a lovely welcome, excellent food, well kept beer and great service. We did have a little issue with our accommodation but I have to say the customer service was first rate, with a prompt response/resolution. I’d say that you can’t ask for more. Lastly I’d like to say that it’s thoroughly cleaned too; a definite plus in my book. We are very much looking forward to our next visit and have already recommended this place to friends and family.

Our annual stay at a nearby chain hotel was not possible this year because of a refurbishment and what a stroke of luck because it enabled us to discover the wonderful Greyhound Inn. For the same price we enjoyed a lovely beautifully decorated room with a fabulous view instead of a bland generic room with a view over the car park, A fabulous cozy restaurant with amazing food instead of a brightly lit airport lounge style restaurant, and finally an amazing cooked to order breakfast delivered to our table instead of a slightly overcooked buffet breakfast. We have found our new annual overnight stop!

We stayed here on our way home from holiday. The whole experience was excellent. Starting off with a gin and tonic, a great selection of gins. We had scallops as a starter, cooked to perfection, followed by the venison, which was delicious. Good selection of wine as well. Staff were lovely, friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. The atmosphere in the restaurant was cosy and comfortable, with discreet lighting. Thoroughly recommended, will definitely stop again on our way West.

We stopped for a bite of lunch en route to Cornwall. Very friendly and attentive staff and - rare these days - food produced without a lengthy delay. We had Chicken Caesar Salad and Ham, Eggs and Chips, both good. Nice choice of desserts. The ice creams are delicious. All well presented and reasonably priced. We stopped there again on our return journey two weeks later.

Lovely lunch here today. Very attentive & polite staff. Good selection of meals. Food served was very hot & good presentation. Couldn’t fault anything, will definitely return.

We chanced upon this pub while on holiday in the area. We hadn't booked a table as it was a dreary Thursday evening - but actually I think we were lucky to get a table. Always a good sign to see a pub busy on a week night. We were given a warm welcome and the serving staff were polite and helpful. Food arrived in good time and was delicious. We were also tempted to a dessert which was fab. Couldn't fault this place

Myself and my partner took my mum out for Sunday lunch to the greyhound today. We had a lovely table by the fire, it was a nice cosy atmosphere. Staff were very friendly and attentive. We were called earlier in the morning to see if we wanted to complete a pre order which we did. We ordered our drinks which came promptly and not long after our food arrived. The portions were great and it was nice to have all the veg individually served so you could choose what you wanted. Had the cauliflower cheese on the side and it was gorgeous. Really impressed very tasty food. Will definitely return!

We went on the basis of the reviews on here and were very disappointed. The food here was very average pub standard. I had ham egg and chips but the ham was the sort of stuff you get out of a supermarket packet, not at all what I had expected on the basis of the reviews. It's OK if all you want is very average pub food but otherwise...

Great pub, fab ambience as obvs a local pub, staff super friendly and great food. So pleased we found you en route to our hotel 👍🏼

Had lunch there today, our first visit for quite a while. Absolutely excellent. We are regulars at the Hare and Hounds just down the road but for attentive table service it will be the Greyhound from now on....

Great Venue. Polite staff. Menu caters for Gluten Free. Food very tasty. I'm glad this is my pub to go to. Thank you very much

Nothing on the menue for vegans...except a hummus starter and sorbets. However they offered to make me what I wanted if they were told in advance. I asked for fried tofu in peanut sauce, asparagus and new potatoes. I got fried tofu in a tasteless peanut sauce, no asparagus replaced by other vegetables and new potatoes. For an eaterie that is quite glossy, I found this disappointing. I dont expect haute cuisine in a pub, but it is very rare to find no mains for a vegan....no vegan burger, vegan sausage and mash. And to offer vegan sorbets is such a standard fare...no icecreams or vegan brownies...also standard fare. So I score so low because of their lack of effort on the menue front. That said my meat eating companions seemed very pleased with what they got

Due to a last minute change to our travel plans, we needed to book a one night stay at a local hotel, we booked the Greyhound Country Inn, via Last minute.com. What good fortune, a great hotel, polite, helpful and attentive staff, a great nights sleep in a well appointed and clean room, followed with a fantastic full english breakfast. A great place for a drink, food or stay.

Really tasty Sunday roast, pre ordered our food so it was served promptly and everything warm and delicious. If I was being super fussy, I would say the vegetables we're a bit on the microwaved side. Would have preferred a honey roasted carrot or some tender stemmed broccoli. However we had the additional of cauliflower cheese so it was tasty. We would recommend this pub!

What a lovely find! Stopped in by chance on a Saturday afternoon. All the waitresses were super friendly and lovely. The food was amazing - better than your typical pub food. We had the tuna steak, fish finger sandwich and the Cajun chicken burger. Really really lovely. Very impressed, will be back! (Mind your head on the low beams though!)

Called in on spec on the way to Cornwall, what a pleasant surprise. Friendly staff, good food and service and reasonably priced. On the way back,because it was a Sunday, we booked online. How efficient, they even rang back to ask what roast we wanted...

Went in a couple of times the last with the old tractors while on a local tour vwry nice beer competivly priced nice place and staff very good

Very attractive pub/restaurant with welcoming staff . We stayed 1 night food was excellent both at dinner and breakfast.

Lovely stay our room was very clean and had everything you could want . Dinner for a large group of us was lovely we would definitely stay again

Moved to Devon 12 years ago from London and yes there was more choice back home, but I always dreamt of finding The One (in terms of food!) here. This place nailed it!! Food is a far better standard of any fancy restaurant I’ve been...

Searching for a stop off on the way home, perfect stop, friendly staff, nice roast dinner. Happy customer.

I had a dreadful conversation with the lady owner who informed me that due to a broadband breakdown they were unable to confirm a booking for Sunday lunch but could fit us in at the bar. I advised her that we had received confirmation all...

Great food, great menu very clean toilets with lovely hand wash. Good atmosphere and good service. Just lovely.

Fabulous food and service. We recommend the steak burger. Delicious. Great menu. Plenty to choose from. Nice ambience in a traditional country pub. Very welcoming.

Popped in for a sandwich without booking which was very nearly a mistake. Luckily we were found a table. We almost didn’t have sandwiches as the menu had so many tempting choices but a plan’s a plan. We certainly weren’t disappointed, the bread was so...

Quite honestly the Greyhound has become a firm favourite! The staff are absolutely delightful, the restaurant is spotless & managed very efficiently. The food is delicious, nicely presented with a wide range of choice. (Tip - try the homemade pies for a real treat). Can’t...

Unexpectedly excellent. We thought we would get 'an average' pub meal. The staff were lovely and the food was really top notch - a bit different and beautifully presented. Would have no hesitation in recommending. And it was on Monday evening!

What a lovely evening ! Excellent service , and lovely surroundings . The food was excellent , welll presented and delicious . Highly recommended

Had an excellent lunch here with friends.venison casserole was delicious served with dauphinois potatoes and fresh kale ,a healthy portion .Friends had the sea bass and cod all delicious. Service was friendly and efficient real fire and tables very well placed for an intimate yet...

Welcoming, helpful lovely room with everything you need. The restaurant’s food was excellent and breakfast was plentiful. Will definitely stay again

Superb in every way. The cleanest pub I have ever seen, everything was spotless! There were lots of helpful staff even on a busy Friday night. The service was second to none. They were all friendly and efficient. The menu was great as it detailed...

As far as country pubs go this is a cut above the rest! Could not fault it. Food is always excellent, staff are friendly and are also child friendly with a large outside garden and climbing frame

My wife and I had lunch here with a friend and were delighted with the friendly and professional service as well as the delicious food and good value for money. Can highly recommend and will certainly book again

Very good meal. We all had game pie which was very tasty. Would recommend Dog friendly. Lovely staff. Been several times and never disappointed

Two nights at this country inn and nothing to fault! The staff are pleasant and helpful, the accommodation was a recently refurbished room with a very comfortable bed. We had a meal the first night, again absolutely nothing to say other than compliments - it...

Living close by we have become regular visitors as The Greyhound is family friendly & consistently reliable. The staff are extremely pleasant, the service is very good and the meals are delicious. I’d recommend booking to avoid disappointment.

Staff very rood and unhelpful. Manager needs customer service training. Would not recommend and definitely will not be returning.

Visited for a date night with my partner and we weren’t disappointed. The pub/restaurant is gorgeous. Very cosy and traditional. Staff were incredibly attentive. Service was quick. Food was gorgeous. Reasonably priced. Great, friendly atmosphere. Would definitely return.

My wife and I, along with family and numerous friends have had the pleasure of staying at this delightful inn and enjoy the wonderful food many times since it was taken over by Wayne and Tina several years ago. They, and their lovely team have...

We have been staying at the greyhound annually for a while now. We look forward to it every year. The staff are friendly and helpful and we always look forward to catching up with the landlord/lady. The food is lovely, the atmosphere is wonderful. The...

Turn up to what looked to be a lovely pub and overnight stay. The rooms we stayed in was small and over priced for what we were expecting. You can't check in before 3 even if the room is ready but you have to be...

We arrived at 2.20 and the staff were really happy to serve us lunch despite it being fairly close to kitchen closing. They were so helpful and polite and the kids meals were really family friendly.

Was disappointed about the vegetarian options so ended up having food from the kids menu pizza and chips Sadly had an upset tummy since yesterday so not happy great pub great company but naff food for me just want basic nice vegetarian food like the...

Booked a table here on a wet Saturday evening and what a way to brighten the day. Friendly, smiling staff greeting you and show you to your table. The waiting staff are equally as friendly and happy to explain items on the menu. The food...

Decided to book somewhere different for Sunday Lunch and after hearing good comments from friends we decided on The Greyhound Country Inn, a bit of a nostalgic choice as my wife and I spent our wedding night at the Inn when it was known as...

My wife, 2 daughters and I have just got back from our Sunday Lunch at The Greyhound Inn and we really feel compelled to write a good review for this establishment. The Sunday lunch was beautifully cooked, well proportioned and wonderfully plated. The Girls had...

Booked this as a very last minute decision, couldnt have been more pleased with the outcome. Room was spotless, Staff were friendly and very helpful. You need to reserve a table for the restaurant as it is popular. Food is great some very varied and...

Hosts Wayne & Tina have worked hard to turn this beautiful thatched pub into a perfect place to stay & enjoy this part of Devon. We loved every thing the room was spotless & comfortable. the menu was varied with plenty of options. the staff...

I'm not sure who this pub think they are. The terms and conditions of booking a table, giving credit card details and charging a potential £10 for no shows are beyond belief. From previous experience there is nothing special about this place and anyone accepting...

Stayed for one night. The room had all we needed. The welcome and service was fabulous. The food, such a good choice and real treats that I just would not have at home. The food was seriously pleasing, delicious and inventive. I honestly enjoyed every...

A very warm welcome to the Greyhound for a 3 night stay. Excellent location with ample parking. Room was very well maintained and a really friendly atmosphere. We ate in the dinning room in the evenings and were never disappointed. Servers were knowledgable about foods...

Very cosy rooms, friendly staff, excellent value and great food and beer! Would recommend very highly.

If ever you are looking for accommodation or something to eat just outside of Exeter or in Honiton look no further than the Greyhound Inn. This beautiful pub is dog-friendly, well run, clean, friendly and has lovely accommodation. Food and drink highly recommended. All round...

Excellent food and excellent staff for a busy Sunday lunch. Book early to avoid disappointment. I personally prefer the set up here where a lunch served with all veggies on the side more than a carvery. Desserts are great and made on the premises and...

Had a lovely meal with the family, great service very clean and tidy and welcoming for children. Decent pub grub lots of selection would recommend.

We have just had yet another excellent meal here. Good choice of food, presentation and flavours were first class. Haddock fish cake and beetroot and goats cheese spring rolls with fish and chips and chicken for main. All amazing. Staff and service were fantastic and...

Lovely roast meal for our family of 5. The staff were very friendly and the service was excellent. The roast meat arrived on your plate with a vegetable serving dish to choose your favourite veg. Altogether a lovely meal, thank you.

We have visited the Greyhound now several times and each time I mean to write a review so, here goes! We visited here on Christmas Eve and despite wanting to book a table for 9 at the very last minute, they accommodated us no problem....

Very accomadating when making the booking as we had forgotten to mention we had a dog with us. The meal was lovely and staff friendly. The choice if food was good especially for vegetarians. The pub is traditional and has a warm relaxing atmosphere. Great...

We have stayed here on more than one occasion and everytime we revisit things only get better. Since taking over the Greyhound there have been many works carried out to improve the property. Rooms and comfortably furnished, food is good quality and on this occasion...

Had a really nice meal with friends, but disappointed that there was no ventilation...much too warm inside...and please...temperature as a sign of covid ...this is number 5...catch up greyhound please...the most up to date symptoms are similar to flu which isn't rocket science !!!! Runny...

Can’t go wrong dining here, great atmosphere, with great service, has very quickly turned into a favourite even though it’s a little travel to get to for us.

We went as a family of four for lunch. Poor service, poor welcome, poor food and poor environment. Dark, cold and dreary. Sad as we are always keen to support small local businesses. But save your time and go elsewhere

We have been here several times over the past few years as the menu use. To be massive with loads of lovely a la carte specials on a board, usually served up with a selection of veg on the side, this has all changed with...

A family group of 6 adult's, two of us were there early so ordered a drink and waited for the other 4. When they arrived they too wanted a drink before we sat down barmen (nice chap serving decent real ale) was about to serve...

Overall nice pub and food younger staff great. Female manager very rude unfriendly attitude wouldn’t return based on this. Front of house is everything in this business!

Great service, good food, and excellent standards of cleanliness. Staff all wearing masks and were very attentive and polite. Kids very happy with their meals, although my 8 year old just wanted more and more so maybe now on the small side for older ones....

Had a lunch with my wife and her friend for her friends birthday. Three delicious, fantastically tasty courses finished with a coffee. Staff were brilliant very friendly and helpful. Very recommended. Must visit.

Stayed for 2 nights at the beginning of August, the staff are extremely polite and friendly as were the owners. Room and Bar were clean and the food was exceptional! Prices were very reasonable, I would definitely stay here again.

Our stay was great! Breakfast was perfect and service amazing! Rooms were spotless, Had lots of cuddles with their friendly cat, Definitely would recommend!

Visited as a family group with the children. Great parking and real friendly staff. Arrived about 1:30pm and although it seemed like no availability on line there was plenty of space for walk ins. I believe you can book on their web site . Or...

Went to the Greyhound Country Inn today and had a drink in the garden. Luckily I had. Pint of cider which was fine. My wife however asked for a half of Dartmoor Jail Ale, one of her favourite beers. The beer was very musty and...

Stopped here for lunch on the way down to Devon. Very popular and for good reason. Food was very good, all fresh and well cooked. Fish and Chips was good as well the Beef and Ale Pie.

Visited on a hot Saturday evening. The garden was busy, music playing and families enjoying themselves. Usual Covid regs in place when we walked in. Shown to our table and a drinks order taken. Food was ordered soon after and then the fun bit... delicious...

We had lunch there today for my dad's 80th, dad hasn't been out for 18 months and the staff were so kind. The food was great and the service was attentive, efficient and courteous. Would highly recommend!

Absolutely brilliant pub, friendly warm atmosphere and food was good value, not at all ‘standard’ pub grub! Had fish and chips for a change and was not disappointed by portion. brilliant service with a smile, very helpful. Will be visiting again!!

Was greeted by a rather rude blonde lady who seemed like the manager. No polite hello, or anything for that matter. Booked a table, and I asked if it’s ok to sit outside so the children could play, she bluntly then said, if it rains...

Stayed one night on our way to Cornwall. Lovely clean room, evening meal and breakfast was excellent. Lovely garden with lots of seating. Happy staff and nothing too much trouble. Would definitely stay again and would recommend.

We came here last week as a family of 8 outside. The service was fantastic! A young lady greeted us when we arrived and was super helpful, cheerful and nothing was any trouble. Efficient app service that enables you to use your phone and not...

This is a delightful place to visit - the first place since lockdown rules changed . The staff are very welcoming and friendly and it is clear that they are taking the current guidelines seriously with plenty of hand sanitizer around, social distancing - the...

Lovely meal taken last night. The venue was busy but the staff coped really well and the service couldn’t have been better. Our table was well distanced from others and the staff COVID careful. The menu is varied and we ate two of the specials...

Absolutely first class service, Covid regulations in place and we felt 100% safe. The staff were amazing, very friendly, service was first class.Food excellent high standard. We cannot fault our lunch time visit ! Thank you all so much we will definitely be back !

Nice family lunch. Nice burger meal. Didn't have dessert as main meal was more than enough. Polite staff, and Nice food.

Very COVID aware, made to feel very comfortable, gel readily accessible, staff made sure you follow the guidelines. The food was fantastic and very reasonably priced. We stumbled on this lovely pub driving past, but will be back. Thank you for a very relaxed enjoyable...

I've been visiting this pub since i was a child, and i've always had a great experience. The food is always great and the staff are always friendly. This place is a constant favourite of mine, due to the great service and great standard of...

As we were attending a wedding at the nearby Deer Park Country House this was a great choice to stay the night before. Such a benefit to have an excellent meal and then climb the stairs to bed. Our dinner was delicous and to be...

From the smart website and the online menu I expected this 'country inn' to be above average, but it is just a pub serving pub grub. Right now, during Covid restrictions, because our group was from 4 households we were ordered to eat outside in...

A very friendly and well run pub with excellent accommodation which was spotless and very comfortable. All the Covid measures were very well organised and safe , the restaurant had a great choice including many gluten free options. We were able to stay with our...

Just back from a great 2 night stay at the Greyhound Inn. The rooms were clean, staff were always so polite and always very attentive, the food and service was excellent, great job. Thanks for a great stay.

Amazing food, moderately priced but tasty. Great service. The fish and chips that hubby and the eldest had was fresh cod, crispy batter and very good. The children's burger was 'proper' meat and clearly homemade. The puddings looked outstanding (I refrained sadly) with th children giving them 8.5-9/10!!They are doing well with Covid guidelines, I was disappointed to have to use my phone to access the menu. I'm sure wipeable single menus are simple enough to sort or print paper as all other places we've been (though great for the environment).

We had such a lovely evening at the pub, the food was delicious, we could not fault the presentation and taste of each course. The pork loin special was AMAZING! Nathan was so helpful and friendly and helped make our evening even more special at the pub. We will be back very soon! Lizzie & Alex

Stopped for lunch on way back to South East coming from Cornwall. Lunch considered excellent by all! Kids chicken nuggets, main course burger and fish and chips devoured!

Just stayed here for two nights with the family. First stop outside London on our ‘staycation’ and the Greyhound has set the standard!The room was spacious, recently renovated to a high standard (Fenny Bridges) and incredibly clean. The whole team are really efficient, delivering a high level of service but not at the expense of friendliness.However, whether you are just staying or passing by, the food in the restaurant is superb, and reasonably priced. I’m not a vegetarian but I had the halloumi and mushroom burger and it was delicious, better than most steak burgers I’ve had.Finally, in this day and age, it is worth calling out how hot they are on Covid hygiene which is really appreciated. Nothing to fault here!
