Greyhound Inn in Carlisle

A great local village pub which is one of the main hubs of Cotehill village. Good food is available and there are regular social events. The village would not be the same without “The Greyhound” long may it prosper!!!

Fabulous family friendly village pub with great atmosphere, friendly staff and local as well as great value for money food.

Food was lovely and the bar maid was very friendly. Lovely little country pub

Staff were very friendly and entertaining love the music and the food was really nice

Lovely friendly staff and a great pub with good food. Will be back soon

Good home cooked meals at reasonable prices

Lovely pub, friendly bar staff and the crispy chillie beef was beautiful! Thank you

Warm and inviting, just what we needed after a long drive to our nearby overnight stay at Travelodge. Easy to book via the website. Relaxed and child-friendly with a good choice of home-cooked food. Just what we needed!

Excellent food and a good quiz night with a good atmosphere and very good service Still a good little place to go if your around that area

Beautiful meal... Such lovely friendly staff... Would deffo recomend

Excellent food and great service. Recommended.

The lady of the pub is incredibly sweet, with a warm smile, the fish and chips was REALLY good with proper chips (that's quite rare), such a beautiful energy in this place, a lovely and peaceful moment I recommend it at 100%! Thank you for that! 🌸

Country pub in small village called Cotehil. We sat outside as we have a pooch. Beer is good and service great.

Nice local food serving good ales and food.

Walked a mile to get there to find kitchen closed.

Really nice and friendly staff. Good pub food. If we could book on our return (fully booked) we would be returning

Waste of time only opens when it feels like it . Don't bother

Enjoyed the meal and will be back

First of all it took about 40 minutes for our food to arrive at our table, The service was friendly however quite slow, second of all the food was extremely cold and and had to request to send it back to the kitchen but when it returned back to our table after 10 minutes it was still cold. Thirdly very overpriced and didn’t even get a refund for the revolting food and fourthly the food has made two of the 6 customers vomit. The toilets were very unhygienic and had urine and pubic hair on the toilet seats.

Fantastic pub great food ,great atmosphere fully recommended to any one.... All the staff where very friendly .

Nice quiet country pub good food

Comfy, well decorated and service with a smile, all will be found here. A lovely beer n chat helped make my evening enjoyable, an experience to be repeated!

So many village pubs have closed in recent years, it's wonderful to find one that's still open, and well supported by the locals and tourists alike. We've visited several times for drinks and also been for food. The meals are excellent and very reasonably priced, the Landlord, Landlady and staff are friendly and the atmosphere is great. What more could you want.

Had a few moretties here we loved it lovely staff

Good food, good service and dog friendly.

Whilst visiting relatives in the area, I visited the Greyhound Inn twice with them.The Inn has a very pleasant atmosphere and the staff were all very friendly and helpful.We had the Katsu Chicken curry, which was superb. For dessert, we tried the two Cheesecake options. The young lady who made them served us and explained that she makes various flavours including malteser. Unfortunately, we missed that one but the two flavours we had were both excellent. Well done to her.When I return to Cumbria, we will be back for more of their excellent food and hospitality.Thank you.

Friendly welcoming service. Nice food and nothing too much trouble. Lovely dog too!

Great food lovely staff will be back

Very nice, nice food nice staff. BZ

I was going to make this a very short review, but decided the staff needed a mention as well as the food. The staff are all young, or I’m getting old, and are brilliant. Very friendly and very helpful, always a smile on their faces, even when it got busy as locals arrived to watch the England v Croatia match. They have a policy of only taking bookings on half their tables, this enables them to accept walk-ins, but also turn them down if the kitchens look like they are becoming overwhelmed with orders, (something a place in one of my previous reviews could learn from). The Sunday lunch is one of the best I have ever had in a pub, and I’ve had lots. Good portions, good thick slices of tender meat, I never understand places that serve the meat so thin you can read the Sunday papers through them. Lots of good fresh vegetables, and a real homemade Yorkshire pudding, you can tell they’re homemade, no two are the same shape. Perfect.

Service very slow and chips undercooked! We were outside the front and no one came out to ask if everything was OK. Disappointed!

Good staff service first class good beer

My wife and I frequent this pub for drinks and food quite often and have got to know the landlady (Julie) and her husband Alistair (affectionately known as (Fat Fingers) to the locals and we find good food,ales,atmosphere,entertainment and most of all appreciation from the hosts first class as would most of the locals especially in these times of restrictions due to Covid 19 where most pubs have remained closed throughout,but not here, they show true British spirit and battle on best they can,serving the local community and also to outsiders if they wish to visit.There is adequate seating at the front of the pub and also a huge tent at the rear with heating although the sides have to be lifted up as to comply with rules.Passing through the bar area to gain access to the outdoor heated tent while wearing a mask I observed the Perspex screen at the bar which is another bonus in these trying times Fat Fingers can often be seen over a distance of 2metres away tucking into his well earned dinner as it is his own home after a hard days graft,if you want to risk life and limb to go near him in these uncertain times that is completely your own choice and not compulsory and easily avoidable, I will certainly visit this place again in the near future,keep up the good work !

Visited in April 2021.On arrival there were 3 men sitting in the bar drinking. Sitting in the bar at the time was NOT permitted under COVID 19 legislation.To make this worse, they did NOT have masks on and were sitting at the only point that you make your way to the garden.We had to wait quite a while for them to move. Whilst waiting several more customers walked through without masks.Later, when we went to pay, there were again people sitting around the till area in the corridor.We mentioned this to the Landlady, who went to look and then came back to say 'That's My Husband'.SO YOUR HUSBAND'S EXEMPT FROM THE RULES THEN????Can't complain about the food. The young staff obviously wouldn't ask the owner to move or comply with the rules.We visit the area regularly but WON'T come here again.

had a wonderful meal , the food was superb, great selection locally sourced ingredients . the host was very friendly and accommodating and the chef excellent. good selection of drinks.highly recommended we were in the heated marque at the rear of the pub where social distancing was well organised

Great place, lovely food, friendly staff...Nice to sit & have a drink with a meal that someone else cooked!!! Will be back

Great food lovely friendly and comfortable x

We walked from nearby campsite, despite meeting someone who advised us against the Greyhound. We suspect he has not been there in ages - the food really good, new nice decor, freindly staff, and sensible Covid precautions. Not twee, just a nice pub amidst lovely countryside.

Good food and a good beer, good service and pleasant staff, thoroughly enjoyable

We came here on a Monday night without really having high expectations, we just wanted a pub tea. What we got was delicious, interesting and satisfying and far better than we expected. The menu was wide ranging enough for a family of four vegetarians, and both kids and parents were impressed. Just when we thought we couldn't eat any more we had the most amazing desserts as well. Definitely worth a visit.

Ok for a pub meal, so much competition in the area from others offering better quality at a similar price range.

Village pub with friendly staff and great atmosphere.

Visited for a family get together very friendly staff good service good food will visit again

We totally enjoyed our evening here! The food was delicious, the environment was comfortable and pleasing, and the locals made it extra special! Everyone was friendly and enjoyed chatting away with us. We loved it here!

Called in for food on Friday night and the food and service was outstanding... My son is a very fussy eater and he loved it ... Will definitely be back soon

Always a welcoming smile and nothing ever a bother in the greyhound, lovely village atmosphere which is disappearing from most of village pubs nowadays. On my go again list. Thanks

We arrived in Cumbria from London yesterday on holiday and decided to come here for Sunday lunch and the food is stunning and the service is amazing, the owners are really welcoming and the food is fantastic. We will be coming loads while here as it’s an amazing place. Highly highly recommend it.

First visit today but it won't be the last We live in the next village and will certainly return A beautiful Sunday Dinner and delicious pudding

Went for afternoon tea. £12.50pp. Good selection of lovely food with either tea or coffee. Would recommend!

This is my 3rd visit to this pub since I first came to the nearby caravan site in 2011. I always make a visit for a meal when I am here. I think there may have been a change of ownership since my last visit in 2015 however apart from that the place is as welcoming as ever & the food & service are still excellent. Here's to my next visit

Great village pub, lovely home cooked food

On the sign outside it said it opened at 12 noon, this was on Saturday 13th July. Four of us left after wating 10 minutes that was after trying the door.

We were staying at a local tourer site. We had a meal here which was very good. People very welcoming will be back when next in the area

Just back from here and will definitely be back .Proper no nonsense, delicious, plentiful pub food which was cooked well and hearty enough to fill a hungry appetite. Staff really pleasant and to top it all some fantastically kept ales.Looking forward to a return visit.

Called for a meal this week. The Greyhound is a proper pub, welcoming, warm, friendly and the food was very good. I had the chicken Leoni which was very tasty and my hubby had Chinese chicken curry, which was also very good. The lady who served us was lovely and told us about the place. Could deffo recommend.

Nice staff but quite an unpleasant pub with plastic shot glasses, poor Guinness (head full of bubbles) and the specials written on a tacky light board. Food looked pallid and lifeless. Shame as could be a lovely historic village pub.

local pub home cooking but going down hill a bit but ok's

novelty bar and beer pumps, large open areas, comfordable seats service ok, chatty bar staff, good clean toilets, novelty urinals

We had a great meal here last night, my uncle and cousin are regulars but it was our first visit. A varied menu and a few specials so hard to choose, but everyone was happy with their food and there weren't many leftovers. Everything seemed to have been freshly prepared, and the desserts were delicious. A friendly team running a welcoming pub.

Couldn't fault this if I tried food was beautiful and really helpful friendly staff, highly recommended I will be back

Viewed it online and wanted to try somewhere different .Didnt book in advance but were lucky enough to get a table.1st class service with a lovely home cooked sunday lunch. Would recommend and situated not too far out of town.

Nice and clean and cozy and plenty room very friendly staff great music jam every fortnight

Excellent food, beer, friendly efficient staff just a lovely bar/restaurant.

This is an a amazing place they make home made chips

We walked here from our inn down the street. What a great pub and restaurant. To my delight it was dog friendly so I got to meet some four legged patrons. The bar was well stocked and the food was freshly prepared pub fare that was very tasty. I had fish and chips of an enormous proportion. Chips were perfection. The sticky toffee pudding was the best I had during my two week vacation. I loved this place!

Very nice pub and shop love the food

We were camping in the area and looking for somewhere to watch the Liverpool champions league final and have a meal. We found the Greyhound and went into inquire and they were all very friendly reserving us a table infront of the tv for later in the evening. The meal we had was excellent and the friendliness continued through all the staff and the locals who joined us watching the game.

A group of us went for an evening meal. Staff friendly and made us feel welcome. Plenty of choice on the menu and specials board. Food good. Will go again.

A great country pub serving home cooked delicious meals all made by Julie.great atmosphere and plenty going on.Well worth a visit

Great village pub. Food good, just a little pricey. Friendly staff and good atmosphere, with welcoming locals. Great!

The FOOD and DRINK was top quality. Well worth the trip from Lancashire. Great customers service. WELL DONE 👍👍👍👍

EXCELLENT FOOD AND DRINK.Price is very good. Well worth the trip from Lancashire WELL DONE ✔✔✔✔

The service and food was outstanding, everything freshly cooked and plentiful. Unfortunately a group of locals were in and despite us having our 3 year old daughter with us they continued to use bad language. The waitress apologised but in the end we didn’t want to experience any more so we left. Shame as we were having a lovely meal.

Best place to go for drinks and eating food

My first visit to this lively village 'local'. A decent beef madras with excellent chips and my companions were well pleased with their choices. Friendly efficient staff.

excellent meals homemade, very dog friendly. fantastic staff and service. highly recommended. a fantastic start to the holiday. November 2017. a proper pub.

Total leckeres Essen, sehr sympathische Gäste und Personal. Immer wieder gerne.

On holiday near by and four of us went twice this was a great pub with basic good home cooked pub grub - nothing complicated but very tasty the chips were fabulous would recommend if you just want good well cooked food

We fancied trying some where new for Sunday lunch I'd heard good reports about the food at the Greyhound so we decided to give it a go.

Great pub great food and great hosts

Went in to ask if the village had a shop (for some milk we'd forgotten) and to find out if it was dog friendly.

We actually stayed at the Mardale in Bampton as the Greyhound was still closed for renovations. However, Lee (who owns...

Fuimos aquí después de una recomendación de un amigo y después de leer las críticas en Tripadvisor. No nos decepcionó. Todos tuvimos el cordero asado, que era excelente, tenía dos tipos de patatas y verduras frescas. 4 Las verduras estaban bien cocinados, así como el cordero. Las raciones eran suficiente para satisfacer incluso a los apetitos más hambre. Los postres eran caseros y otra vez eran muy buenos.

Un amigo nos recomendó el almuerzo en el greyhound y fuimos ayer. La comida era muy fresca, casera y muy sabrosa. Incluso postres caseros. Ambiente encantador y un personal muy amable y nada era demasiado problema. Una gran relación calidad-precio. Sin duda volveré cuando estamos pasando.

Lovely pub, dog friendly, very warm welcome from landlady and landlord and the Cotehill young farmers ☺

Dropped in for a drink and received a very warm welcome from the landlord and landlady. It seems a very friendly local pub, sat chatting to the regulars and the Cotehill young farmers

Good village pub with pub food, Seemed to be well supported by the locals which is good considering how many pubs are closing due to lack of business.

We were looking forward to a Sunday evening meal out with friends, but very disappointed to be greeted by a large group of young people who had obviously been sitting outside the pub all afternoon getting totally wasted and whose language was absolutely atrocious. We were seated at a table inside, just next to these people. Language was so bad so we had to close the window to try and block out the noise, but it was so warm. No attempt by management to quieten them down, or consider the other guests trying to enjoy a meal out. When the food eventually arrived it was good food but the overall experience was not a relaxing evening, therefore we won't be rushing back.

First class food and drinks you want find anything Better

This is a great pub! Very tasty food at reasonable price and gray service. The ambience was very good too. Enjoyed our time here. Will highly recommend it!

Called by for a meal one evening and was very pleased we did as the food is very good. Good honest pub grub at a reasonable rate.

Staying at the local b n b who phoned up for us xx and advised that they were busy so might have a wait. Lovely, wouldn't want to go to a pub that wasn't busy on a Saturday night. We were quite happy to have a drink while waiting. Very good beer on tap. And good selection of drinks available generally. What a welcome, not only from the landlord and landlady but the locals having drinks and food. You can see by my reviews that I get about and I can say I had the best pub chips ever, and the fish was excellent too. The misses had a chicken curry which she said was excellent too. The dog was welcomed too by everyone, before we knew it she'd had a Cumberland sausage, chicken nuggets and gammon! Luckily she's well trim and can have an indulgence now n again. I gotta say our passing through visit to this village and pub has made us wish we had a reason to move there.

A traditional country pub with a very warm welcome from the landlady and landlord.My partner is a real ale fan and recommends the grasmere gold.Lovely home cooked meal with real chips and delicious puddings, particularly the crunchy cheesecake.We will definitely be back.

My family and I went to this pub for a meal on a friday evening, only to be told the place was closed for a birthday part in no uncertain terms. No smile or even advice as to where else to try.This pub advertises itself as open for meals 7 days a week. But this is obviously not the case. This venue is popular with Caravan Club members staying at Englethwaite Hall site. Next time we will go to another place to eat and not spend my money here.

Good pun grub with great landlord and landlady xx

Came for a Saturday evening meal .. the food was absolutely delicious I had a lamb shank and it just fell off the bone .. and the sticky toffee pudding was to die for .. the staff were so friendly and welcoming .. if you're passing or staying nearby it's a must x

First time at visiting this pub, myself husband and 2 kids , and another family of 3 we reserved a table for sunday lunch, they actuly couldnt of been any nicer , very welcoming and friendly, approachable and on hand if we needed anything. The pub was very clean and tidy inc the toilets, thank you very much we will be back again. :)

Six of us visited last night for a meal that we booked previously and the food and service was second to none. Would highly recommend this friendly, warm and cosy pub with an atmosphere to match.

We had an evening meal here and were very impressed with both the warm welcome we received and the excellent food. Will definitely come back when we are in the area.

We were in few days ago on the one day they do not serve food. We were afoot and had few options. Manager went out her way to fix us an excellent cold plate. We also had a few beers and some great conversation. Hope we get back to the area to try the fish and chips.
