Greyhound Inn in Coventry

This is a little hidden gem with the best food for miles around and the best service. I went for a birthday meal and our waitress Hayley was a diamond, so kind and friendly. I can't praise this enough! A place I'm happy I got a chance to experience. Thank you!!! Day 2 was amazing had a breakfast before we start our journey and it couldn't be better. Ruby was a diamond and so kind. Everyone who works there are so friendly and lovely. A really amazing place to be!

What a find this was. Stunning location by the canal and a beautiful, traditional pub feel. Outstanding food and service. The place was totally full but service was quick and friendly.

Beautiful place to visit, beer is good on tap and the food really good 👍. For a summer sit buy the canal it's perfect.

Great traditional pub by the canal. Good service and very well kept beer.

Beautiful country pub next to the canal. Called in after the Coventry, Sunderland match. Very lively packed pub with a good selection of drinks.

Just great food been coming here regularly since moving up from London....... You can't be disappointed

Lovely canalside pub with a nice coal fire and great food , the feather blade of beef is a must try.

Love the recent renovations, much nicer

Great place for a meal and a great selection of beers. We went on Pancake Day and had a great selection of them. It was national pie week as well, brilliant choice of Pies.

We decided to make the most of the lovely weather. So we parked at the pub and went for a walk along the canal and then back. As the weather was still glorious we decided to sit outside in the garden, which has now been opened up with gorgeous views of the canal and new eating tables. Drinks: Cider x1; Lemonade & Lime x2 Meals: Ploughman's x1; Steak ciabatta Sides: portion of chips x1 Food was excellent and very tasty, as always. Was very busy as lots of people were walking along the canal and having a drink/food, but the service was still good.

Visited on a busy Fri eve. Great atmosphere and superb food. Especially the home made pies Inc the vegan ones. Even though they were very busy brilliant friendly quick service.

Once again we were served by Jill she is just a lovely person. Her customer service is second to none, nothing is too much trouble, she is helpful ,considerate and wants to make her customers feel comfortable. Thank you Jill for your kindness. Ps the lunch was delicious 😋

Great place to eat after a good walk by the canal. Friendly staff and cosy with log fire, food was excellent, 2 large fish and chips and 3 ploughman’s. Highly recommended for a good hearty meal. Definitely will be returning

Adorable pub, lovely views and nice food

A lovely evening with excellent service and good atmosphere. The food was high quality, as always. As long term customers of The Greyhound, we are very pleased that no major changes have been made, as it was a fantastic pub already (apart from the toilets, the new ones are much nicer!) We will be back.

Beautiful traditional canal side pub. Very close to Bedworth & really easy to get to. Parking at the rear. Very cozy with a fantastic atmosphere. Dogs welcome. I ordered food which was freshly cooked & of excellent quality. The steak was lovely & tender. Refreshingly, the white wine was nice & chilled too. I went for the lemon meringue for dessert with raspberry sorbet; I prefer a little more tartness to the lemon to balance the sweetness of the meringue myself so would choose a different dessert next time. But it certainly gave me a sugar rush to get me home! 😝 A very enjoyable visit & definitely recommended

We had a lovely Sunday dinner and excellent service. We were served by Lucas who was exceptional. Very polite and accommodating. This was our first time here but not our last.

Visited here on 11th Feb after a family funeral. The meal, value for money and atmosphere was the best ever! We will be back again hopefully not after a funeral next time.

Good food & beer. Table service in dining room. Very nice after refurb especially the toilets.

Proper pub! Great selection of ale and beer, food was lovely. Service was fantastic in bar and restaurant, they did everything they could to accommodate us. Can be hard to find a seat in the bar, as it's a very popular place. Some of the locals are a bit opinionated, but that's not the pubs fault at all.

Excellent food...just Excellent...

We had a team of 15 there. Was very nice food and very nice atmosphere. Price was very fair. Bit of a hidden gem of Coventry as we live on other side.

This was my second visit to warm and welcoming Inn. 1st visit was a joyous occasion and 2nd a more sombre occasion both were treated with equal professionalism and respect. Parking can be a little challenging but atmosphere and food more than makeup for this.

The best food we have had out in a long time served with a smile.

Thoroughly recommend the blade of beef

Wow I real hidden gem, food not only delicious but presentation is second to none, real good value for money , staff are really helpful and you are served with a smile, service was swift to say we were a large group and no complaints from anyone. Myself and my husband had the blade of beef omg best ever and desserts I have no words apart from heavenly. I will definitely be returning. Darren is so welcoming and made sure everyone was well looked after which we were , thankyou for a truly amazing lunch experience.

Thank you for the beautiful hot and cold buffet provided by you yesterday. A great variety of hot and cold food attention to detail was perfect. Thank you to Darren and the team.

A lovely setting by the canal, the pub is traditional and very welcoming inside. A minor booking error was dealt with quickly by staff and the service was really good. Everyone in our party enjoyed the food and the price was a pleasant surprise, given how expensive everything is these days. Exactly what we all needed, having just watched a dire 1-0 loss for Bristol City at the Coventry Arena!

We had a family lunch after Xmas. Good food, and given a private room. Excellent service, making sure we got what we wanted. Setting also great.

A nice warm welcome. It was Thursday lunchtime we hadn't booked a table, and just managed to get the last one. It was service with a smile and a very good lunch Well worth the 3 miles each way along the towpath. Will definitely do it again

Lovely little pub. Popped in here with a couple of friends and the missus tonight. Cosy , vibrant atmosphere. The roast beef Sunday dinner was stupendous.

Great food and an excellent range of quality beers.

Beautiful old pub, great atmosphere. We're tourists trying local ol' pub and didn't disappoint. Staffs were good. Friendly guests bought us drinks 🍻 made our visit unforgettable. We didn't get a chance to try the food as kitchen close on Sunday 6 pm. Maybe next time.

Absolutely exceptional place an location too.Must go if you want to know.Loved it hoping to pass through summer times.

Excellent Christmas meal as always - could do with some more varied vegetarian options but very nice!

One of the best pubs in coventry

Phenomenal pub grub. Went as a party of 3 and had the slow braised beef feather blade, braised steak in red wine pie and pan seared tenderloin which all came with mash/chips, baby carrot, baby leeks and rich gravies to accompany. All dishes were cooked to beautiful perfection; quite possibly one of the best meals I have ever eaten! Pub is situated in a beautiful corner overlooking the canal and there is ample parking. I will be back!

Visited today with 3 friends for pre Christmas meal lovely food friendly staff

Lovely friendly welcome on arrival. Nice choice on the menu with the option of small bites. I chose the small bite beef burger, chips and bake beans which was ample .

Love this place, great food, great scenery, friendly people. The roast pork is amazing 👏

Thoroughly enjoyed a good lunch with my brother and wife. Food good and people very welcoming

27 of us booked. All the staff were brilliant, looking after us all. The food all came out quickly , hot and tasted superb. Cannot recommend the place enough. Thank you so much for giving us a great evening out.

Nice & simple lunchtime food. Good choice on the menu. Food was served hot & well presented. Will be going back again

Good beer in cozy, friendly atmosphere. You can't beat a traditional pub like this in winter.

Easy to book, very pleasant and efficient staff, very quick, great food, steak very tender and juicy, really really good, thoroughly enjoyed it, definitely go again.

Had lovely lunchtime special today the beef stew with herb dumplings, hubby had burger...absolutely beautiful Will return thanks

Excellent place for old fashion charm, and food was first class staff are well organized and friendly, Jo and Josh. P s they didn’t get my joke. What did one plate say to the other plate? Answer - lunch is on me. Does anybody else get the joke ?

You really must try this place and book ahead due to popularity. We started with the infamous garlic sizzling prawns the a huicy sirloin with peppercorn sauce, huge onion rings and othe trimming and chips. Dessert was a hard choose. We ended up having the frangipane tart. All washed down with a half of spiral pale ale. The service and speed of the food to table was excellent and service by Josh who catered for all our needs. Perfect place in the summer too. In fact all year round.

We moored up alongside the Greyhound for an early dinner. We were last here a year ago and were impressed, so decided to come back. We shared a whitebait and then had homemade steak and stilton ale pie and faggots from the light bite menu to ensure there was room for the delicious banoffee. Unfortunately they ran out of the Elevation IPA after a pint, but did squeeze another one out of the barrel (thank you!). The meal was certainly as good as last time and the staff were brilliant. Special shout out to Jo who was attentive and we enjoyed some jokes with her - thanks Jo!

Excellent place for food and drinks. Very relaxed and welcoming place.

Went to the Greyhound for Sunday Lunch with a party of 4 with two dogs. As we were with dogs we could not eat in the Restaurant but a private room was allocated on the first floor. The food was good and excellent value for money. Even though the room was remote from the Restaurant the service given by Grace was good and she really looked after us..

Good food served hot and very welcoming staff

Went for lunch today with my sister. Lovely friendly service from Jo, Josh & Rybee and both meals were delicious. Fish was excellent (and I’m quite fussy) and the chips although not home made were very nice. The pie dinner was equally tasty … oh and all food served lovely and hot (I hate tepid food but this didn’t disappoint) We’ll definitely be returning and would recommend.

I always come here with family for football away games against Coventry City. The canal side old pub has a terrific atmosphere and really friendly staff. The Steak & Stilton Pie is absolutely fab and the Bass is decent. I highly recommend this place.

Fantastic canalside proper pub with good food. Love the large communal table for the local old boys too.

Good pub with lovely location. The food was great but I have been a little disappointed of late if I'm honest. I believe they're trying to do too many covers from such a small kitchen. It's popularity may be it's ultimate downfall. Nothing inherently wrong with the place, just not as good as it was before it's expansion.

Food never fails to disappoint. Visited 2nd Nov lunchtime ..excellent

Excellent so booking essential for the restaurant. Lots of outdoor seating. Always a selection of real ales.

Best steak pie we've had in years Proper pub atmosphere, great choice of music too. Will definitely go back.

Food was amazing complements to the chefs. I had the feathered beef (highly recommended) melts in your mouth, husband had the seafood pasta (explosion of flavours on the pallet) Staff are so welcoming, each staff member I came into contact with was happy had a lovely chat about the food and how it's sooo CHEAP yet should be more for the quality and service received. Well done to each and every member of the team there you are all such lovely people

We moored on the canal nearby and stopped for a pie and a pint. Really recommend this inn. Staff are friendly, the beer is great and the pies are absolutely awesome. We had a pint of Tiger Ale a pint of Atomic Blonde, a steak and red wine pie with chips and a steak and stilton pie with chips. Excellent, really hit the spot.

Nice friendly place to chill .. especially outside on a nice day with views over the canal .. they pull a great pint of Guinness and do great toasties too

What an amazing place. I had a crispy skin sea bass with a perfect porched egg, pancetta crumb, capers and hollandaise drizzle for my starter. 10/10. Main was Pork tenderloin wrapped in pancetta, excellent baby carrots and baby leeks, Fondant potato (🤔) and the most delicious Gorgonzola cream sauce. Another 9.9/10. Absolutely Fantastic 🫡👏👏👏👏

I've been here a few times for a meal, which is with two ex-work mates. We all are always impressed with our meals & the service is always very good. We will certainly keep returning in the future.

Very friendly, great beer selection, excellent food. Superb canalside location

Still a nice pub. New landlord last year. Beer kept as well as ever.

Great food... great service...wonderful vibe! My favourite pub on the planet.

Fabulous food and beer. Excellent, friendly service. Can recommend the braised feather blade of beef and horseradish mash.

We did arrive a little late due to a car problem. That was our fault. However, we were made to feel very uncomfortable. We were told 4 times that the chef was going and just felt rushed.

Good old fashioned pub with separate dining area and large outdoor seating area by the canal juction

We called in whilst moored nearby. The first time since the change of hands. We were very happy with food. It didn’t get five stars because the chicken burger was a bit to well coked. The whitebaits were some of the best we’ve had for ages. It was extremely busy but didn’t wait long for food or to be served for drinks.

Perfect place on a sunny afternoon (even in the cold) to sit by the canal and watch the boats manoeuvre the hairpin; excellent food and service (great portions & value); best friendly people serving and as fellow customers. It's a bit of an adventure driving in and out but well worth it for drivers capable of negotiating the shared lane

Amazing place to visit for good atmosphere and great scenery

The service on a Sunday was so quick and friendly and the meal was so lovely!

Very Popular pub with good food, good selection of real ale.

One of the best canalside pubs for food and beer

Great little pub. Staff was wonderful

Great pub in a fantastic location. We decided to have a family Sunday dinner which was served in a timely fashion and hot. If I was to be slightly critical I would say the roast potatoes were over done and served with the smallest piece of stuffing I have ever seen on a roast dinner. Staff really nice.

Cozy small pub with friendly atmosphere along the canal, been once before for Valentine’s Day a few months earlier and got the braised beef featherblade, had it again just to make sure it was just as delectable as the first time, and it definitely was! Was given plenty of time to be by ourselves and decide what to order, when enquiring about drinks they offered great options even considering strengths for personal preference. Food was 10/10 even with a picky eater with me, who didn’t realise there was raisins in the apple strudel, luckily I like raisins! In passing conversation with one of the waitresses they heard it was my birthday the day before and I received a lovely slice of cake topped with a serenade from the whole pub! Very embarrassed but very amusing! I would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the West Midlands area, just make sure to book beforehand if you want to sit inside due to the limited amount of space.

What a hidden Gem, this place has that lovely old pub feel traditional. The food was stunning, staff were really lovely. Would recommend to anyone.

Food absolutely fab definitely going again staff so friendly

Great price, good pub grub and an amazing g atmosphere right by the canal.

Really nice old.style pub with a great selection of local cask and keg beer. Food looked good but I didn't eat there. There is a gorgeous canal that runs along the side too.

They offer both a pub and a dining area. A good assortment of beer and other drinks. Good homemade food and friendly people. Making a reservation is advised. Also a nice terrace outside with views on the lock and the canal

My partner and I regularly visit as it's only a 5 minute walk (lucky us!). Food is always delicious but there really could be some more vegetarian options, especially on the specials. Can be a bit hectic at busy periods to get served, almost like an extra person is needed behind the bar. But it is very small behind the bar so probably not possible. With that said, we have never had a bad experience and enjoy our visits with our dog (very dog friendly). Live music is also good.

Went here to watch a sixties band and they were absolutely brilliant!! The atmosphere was amazing too and everyone really friendly

Great food. Great location. Great service. Good prices. Well worth visit. Just revisited and was not disappointed. Well worth a visit if you are passing.

Had a lovely meal, staff and service couldn't fault it. Lovely clean and well kept Pub, great location too.

It's a great pub with lovely food and good service. It's in a nice setting on the canal and there's parking

First visit in a few years and sad to say it has gone way downhill. The food was cold, they mixed up the order and the atmosphere is just not the same. The tables were sticky, the carpet was sticky, the service was also very poor. Very sad but won't be returning ....

Amazing place sit outside or in watch the badges go by out in the sticks a bit so nice no trouble mostly locals but some visitors

Lovely canalside pub. Good selection of food and drinks.

First time I have been back here since the change of management, but found it just as good as before. Excellent choice of food for meat eaters and veggies alike, all cooked to perfection and portions were just right. Staff helpful and attentive without getting in the way. It was very busy when we went and some options had run out, I might have ordered a different starter if I had known but there were lots of choices.

Fantastic food + drink amazing atmosphere,friendly staff & owner all-around great company ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

Beautiful surroundings. Beer was expensive but it's worth it if you like tranquility and good food. If I lived by there it would be my local.

A warm welcome from the staff, 2nd time we have visited since the change of management.

Fantastic place, great food, great beer, great team of staff!

Lovely cider great place to sit outside in the sun

Fabulous staff. Amazing food. Plenty of free parking.

Wonderful old canalside pub. Biggest Gammon steak I've had in years. Ale was first class and served well
