The Greyhound in Ipswich

Old ale is back on - meals freshly cooked - tastes amazing - staff are the friendliest people you will ever meet…what more do you want in a Public house.

Gem of a pub. Beautiful outside seating. We had our first visit there today. Will go back again and again. Delicious home cooked food, served by lovely people. Highly recommend.

Lovely pub. Just perfect. Delicious home made food. Lovely outside space. Great atmosphere and lovely people who are the hosts.

Went for Sunday lunch, which I was expecting more from for £21 a head. The staff and surroundings and especially the beer garden were very good. However a large roast at £21 was not much bigger than a "little" roast at £17.. The oversized Yorkshire puddings filled the plates. Dissapointed as had heard good things of this pub.

Four of us visited on the recommendation of friends, place was very busy but we found a quiet table. Food was excellent the best steak Pie I have ever had & generous too. Beer was v good . Place is very close to Ipswich town FC so gets very busy match days and is football decorated

Spent Friday evening enjoying the sun in the beer garden. Staff were friendly and the food was good.

Popped in for a quick drink, very poor non alcoholic beer drinks, only one. Bar lady very friendly

It's mental. But the best thing to happen to the greyhound was the pandemic!! I use to park in the car park!!! But because of the pandemic (space etc) It's now the beer garden!! Tripled the size of the place. All nicely done off with tables, flag stones, huts and covers. Great flower baskets. Best pub in Ipswich. (Its worth the extra ££).

Great local pub with good atmosphere and friendly service

Visited last night for my sons birthday. I just wanted to say how much we all really enjoyed the food here, everything about the place was lovely. Nothing too much trouble for the staff at all. Highly recommend!!

Amazing atmosphere, great drinks, superb food, staff very attentive and supporting, knowledgable and friendly. Easily my go to pub in town by a mile.

Superb local pub. Really nice mix of traditional pub with a great beer garden with modern booths and seating. Nice atmospheric lighting. Staff are very attentive and polite. Service was fantastic. We offered various dishes of the menu and all were delicious and very well presented.

Its been a few times visiting with family and we are always blown away at the level of service and the food.. omg the food! Hats of to the chefs because those sunday dinners are incredible!!

I enjoyed the crab salad here. Service was superb!!!

Revisit 4th July 2024 Still a great pub to visit. Food came out in good time, very tasty and filling. Staff attentive and polite. ########### Popped in for lunch today and it was very nice. The outside area has been done up so when they are allowed to open fully it will be very nice. Feel Covid secure so very happy. Food was a little slow to come but that seems to be the same with a few pubs I've been to so not marking down for that. I had the Bacon and Cheese burger which is home made and was very tasty, very pleased. Best Halloumi fries over ever had!! Can recommend them for sure. I had the Chocolate and Peanut butter brownie. It was nice but could have been a bit sweeter. Still very happy either way.

Wow the food here is amazing the Yorkshire puds were massive food is top notch highly rate it.

This is a lovely pub with nice staff and delicious food. the staff were very friendly and helpful when i was enquiring questions and the atmosphere is very welcoming

Fantastic place for drinks with the girls. Outdoor area such a lovely place to sit in the summer

Staff friendly and helpful but food disappointing. I had fish and chips... Chips over cooked and not nice at all. The whole dish was basic and very disappointing for the £18 price tag.

Sat in the beer garden on Friday evening, lovely atmosphere. Friendly staff. Clean pub. Knocked down a star purely for the cost of a half a pint of shandy, same price as having half a pint of lager.

Great Pub, Good food, Good Real Ale (Adnams), Great Quiz.

Really good pub, popped here on a Saturday evening, had table service at one of the pods. The burger is possibly one of the best pub burgers I've ever had, highly recommended! As for beers it's Adnams so there's a good range on tap.

Absolutely amazing meal. I get squid everywhere I go and this was bloody lush and a huge portion....and the pan fried salmon with risotto....chefs kiss!!!! And the mulled wine, so smooth amd boozy ❤️

Food was good, Pimms was excellent! Service was tip top. Good solid pub grub. My wife forgot to check her bill before paying and the following day noticed a bottle of PG was inadvertently added to the bill. I emailed them the copy of bill and explained…… the lovely Vanessa apologised and refunded immediately without question. This pub has ethics and a lovely atmosphere because of it!

Very personal served, bartenders and servers know people by name, service is not corporate at all. Would return!

Lovely pub, always plenty of staff to take orders. Really nice beer garden and delicious food. Highly recommended 👌🏼

Very nice food, very popular pub.

Nothing special food wise, Very salty chips. Nice friendly staff. Looks a nice pub but small inside but plenty of outside seating if weather nice.

Great meal last night. The cod and risotto was delicious.

Dog friendly pub offering friendly service of good quality, nicely priced food. Comfortable seating inside & outside.

Excellent pub, good beer and food, very lively and fun on ITFC match days.. Match day menu is mainly themed burgers and sandwiches but I believe they offer a more sophisticated menu on other days.

THE BEST roast I've ever had from a pub,just superb.Lovely staff members who are very attentive.Pods in the garden are a nice touch.

Got to go for dinner before the Watford game, the staff are so friendly and helpful and when it's busy they get more staff :) The food is delicious, home made and good value for money, I recommend the Mighty Morsy - it'll also keep you going for some time! A lovely ambience both inside and outside and I imagine will be a lovely place to enjoy some food, and some friend / family drinks during the warm summer nights under the lights in the beautiful beer garden. Thank you team GH and keep up the good work!

The best lamb roast I've had in ages and fantastic wine 🍷 highly recommend it.

Hood quality pub food and lovely service. Steak and ale pie a must!

Great place to prepare for a match at Portman Road. Extremely popular with the home fans - may not get a seat. If you do have the cheesy chips with chilli beans. Great pint of Adnams too

I have been to loads of places for Sunday lunch in suffolk because I love to have roast cooked for me. I am told by everyone I'm a great cook do a really tasty roast but cannot find anywhere that I enjoy more than mine except a few actually 3 places. For mothers day I choose this place as I'd read about the greyhound in evening star. I of course had my chicken roast. It was delicious I cannot praise the chef enough. It was best tastiest roast I have ever had in any suffolk restaurant. Service was exceptional and manageress even introduced herself and the owner/landlord. I liked the fact they do large roast or normal size with different prices. The meal I had was not overpriced especially for the quality and taste. Book here you definately will not be disappointed as I'm a great cook I am very fussy

Lovely pub, very cozy as was expected - although it was a bit of a squeeze. Service was excellent and the staff were very amicable. Food is on the pricey side, but the serving sizes are good and the quality is also good. Nothing to rave about, but a pleasant place for lunch.

Nice place. Very tasty the Sunday roast. Pork is awesome and juicy

Lovely meal with great service and atmosphere. Good value, will be back.

My friend and I meet up here each month for chilli and chat. Great food and awesome beer. They still have a £10 main meal menu, which is really appreciated.

Visited on a Friday night, after booking a table on the recommendation of friends. Place was very busy and a little noisy but service was quick and the food was delicious, The ambiance however was not threating with people of all ages present Price wise not cheap but the portions were generous and the beer was very good would recommend but you need to prebook

During covid I spent some time here. A couple invited me over to join them. Not sure quite what happened, but they started feeling uncomfortable. They got up and went into the bar. Obviously decided to complain to staff instead of being honest with me. Landlord basically throws me out without hearing my side of the story. Never been back, never intend to. I am high function autistic, and do not tolerate being treated like that. I'm sure everyone else who works here is fine but the landlord needs to sort his attitude out. I'll stick to the Brewers Arms and the Woolpack thanks very much....they tolerate "different " in these two places.

This was once a lovely pub in a great location near the park, where one could go for a relaxed drink, maybe a Sunday roast, and just chill out. However, the owners have now decided to go all-in on the Gastropub approach. Which is fair enough, if it wasn't for the fact that they're running the place like some kind of factory farm. Every spare inch of inside and outside the pub is crammed full of tables and chairs, so tightly-packed that people are practically sitting on top of one another throughout. It's noisy, over-crowded, claustrophobic, and overwhelming. If you just want to go in for a quiet drink, forget it. There's nowhere to sit if you're not eating. We didn't stay to find out whether the food was as good as the reviews suggest, because the overall ambiance was horrible. We had one drink (outside in the cold as there were no seats inside) and they were insanely expensive too. I'm glad the owners are obviously doing a roaring trade, but what a shame that it's now basically a posher version of Isaacs.

We visited this pub after watching football in the afternoon. I have eaten here previously when the food was excellent so had suggested this would be a good place to go. Food was average at best. Two of us ordered burgers which were no better than off a burger van and came with a tiny portion of chips as a side. One ordered a hake dish which was very small for £20.00 and not particularly tasty. The other ordered small haddock and chips which was ok but nothing special. All round it was disappointing.

Over priced nachos! It’s just crisps and a bit of cheese and topping. Wasn’t sure I was given the large either

Great Food, Great Service, Cracking Pub. Came for a roast and weren't disappointed! We will be back for another one very soon!

We have visited here several times now. The menu has several pub classics as standard, supplemented with weekly specials. We have never been disappointed with our choices. The Sunday roasts are excellent too. Good selection of beer. Follow them on socials to see the menus.

This has been one of my favourite pubs for more years than I care to remember. The beer has always been first class, now the food is also excellent and, to top it all, the former car park has been very tastefully converted to a very pleasant al fresco experience (maybe due to the pandemic encouraging outdoor living). All in all, a perfect pub.

Excellent service with a lovely atmosphere.

Didn't sample the food but it looked good. Great for a pre match pint or two. Very friendly place.

The food is amazing in here. Had a venison, guinea foul and mushroom suet pudding that was absolutely delicious. The staff are very friendly and efficient. Highly recommended.

Very nice food, fast service an loads of covered outdoor seating

Very friendly service and excellent quality food

Good food at a great price with fantastic service. The greyhound just gets better and better!

Awesome Sunday roast. Go for the smaller portion and even a big apatite will not be disappointed.

Food is reasonable priced not cheap? but very good. Drink price another matter. I've payed less in a lot of London pubs, no need to charge those extortionate prices, I won't be going back unfortunately 😔

The best pub in Ipswich hands down. Cosy, chilled atmosphere combined with friendly faces and amazing food - what’s not to love. Plus the pub garden is 10/10.

Good choice of drinks,just very expensive compared to a pub 2mins away.

Food was delicious. You really get what you pay for here! Service was great even though the pub was sooooo busy. But you can understand why! Take my hat off to all staff.

I loved the cozy feeling of the pub. Servers were attentive, friendly and went out of their way to accommodate us. I was part of a birthday party that was held in one of the private rooms.

Service OK, burger buns was soggy, chips not nice very cold in restaurant, had to eat in my coat. Won't be going back

Great pub, friendly service and good food.

Excellent food as usual, Steak pie with chips and mushy peas followed by brownie and pistachio ice cream.

Staff are really good, work hard and helpful, especially little Lauren. Book one of their pods, and you get table service. Definitely book as it gets busy. Food is good quality. Overall, it was well worth the visit. I definitely recommend it. Many thanks.

Gorgeous private pods at the food of the garden. A real treat.

We booked as we thought it wise, and it was! We also thought they had a car park, but this has been lost to seating now, so be warned - parking ain't easy! The interior is split into two parts, the front being rather dark and crammed full of tables, the back being infinitely preferable. The staff were great. On the ball and amusing. The food was excellent. My haddock and salad was devine and washed down with a pint of Broadside. My only moan was dogs. I really do not like dogs around when I'm eating, but that's a personal thing and not enough to put me off returning. But next time I'll get a cab as parking was a nightmare.

Exactly what you would hope for from a well run local dining pub with no pretensions!

Nice meal with a good variety on the menu. As a chip fan I was disappointed with the quality of the frozen chips.

Had an after works drink here. Hired out the pod in the back garden area, friendly staff and good prices.

Enjoyed a fantastic family meal for 10, celebrating a birthday. Food was delicious - particularly the roasts! Brilliant atmosphere and amazing staff. Quiz was great fun too. Thanks very much. Garry & Gail

The roast dinner was amazing will definitely be coming back

8 of us went on a Sunday Afternoon, best roast I have ever had out fantastic service cant wait to come again

Nice gastropub. Not cheap but food really good. Only minor complaints were that the mushroom gnocchi was a bit greasy and the chips were only average. Note the website is slightly inaccurate as they no longer have a car park. They've replaced it with lots of outdoor tables, which is definitely better. The pods are particularly cool. Free on street parking on Sundays though.

Amazing Sunday lunch. Enormous Yorkshire puddings, tender meat and a brilliant selection of veg. Awesome Adnams drinks selection too.

Decent beers Good good Amazing atmosphere and service

I love this spot for its great ambience and food. Great to sit down with some friends with a point of cider or beer and get some sun in the early evenings in summer. It's pet friendly and you get to meet many a doggo who decided to visit the place with their families.. The outdoor seating area has a few different seating concepts and heated spaces for the cosy dinners (check out their specials on the weekends). Must try their Sunday roast soon! They have a few gluten free options available; it would be nice if they introduced a few more!

Staff were friendly and helpful. The crab and prawn fishcakes were lovely 💞

I hade very lovely lunch with my family.

Food was excellent it was my partners 70th birthday and it was all good

I popped for a pre dinner drink before 5 friends joined me for dinner. I enquired about the veg to a staff member who was very helpful, but a staff member in shorts was very rude. She needs some customer service skills training. I decided to not bother eating there and booked another restaurant. Over priced beer and food. Also dogs in the restaurant area which is very unique hygienic

The greyhound the best pub in Ipswich the food is gorgeous. The beer garden is perfect. If your a Ipswich fan before the game this place is perfect. Highly recommend this pub to everyone.

Had a lovely meal there, staff were friendly and attentive. Decent beer, wine over priced (£25 for a bottle of house white)

Am vegetarian. Brought an extremely tough chicken dish before I realised. Very indifferent thrown together curry. One of our group overcharged on her meal Unbelievably expensive drinks. Feel the pub is resting on its reputation and providing a second rate experience.

Popped in for a beer after watching Town win against Stoke. Excellent atmosphere

It was amazing foods and drinks, and very nice pub and restaurant, & Good service, Today I went there, since 2020, I has said Wow ! I like it ❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Cibo fantastico condito con uno staff super accogliente e una location bellissima. Grazie!

Great Sunday lunch and really good service too. I liked this place immensely. Planning to return and would recommend.

Good beer and great staff. Venue is great too.

Consistently great food with a menu that caters for everyone, great atmosphere and lovely staff. My favourite pub in Ipswich. The management / staff make you feel like you’re a friend no matter how often you’ve visited & nothing is too much trouble.

Despite previously having a poor meal I thought I would try again. My rational being that the very least they would get right would be a Sunday roast. Sadly this was disappointing. Service was fine - was advised sirloin of beef would be served are - which suited me. However this arrived well done - no follow up to ask if all was ok so - ate little of it, veg was fine. Will not bother again. Will travel up to the Plough and sail which has never let me down. On a positive note they have made great use of the outdoor space which I am sure is a great boost for their business. The beer is always good

Great food, friendly staff and great atmosphere

Amazing . tops all the roasts I've had in Ipswich. Their chef is a Master.. Gold ⭐ Star. Plenty on my plate. Hard pushed to finish.

Food quite expensive for mediocre meal,had haddock and chips ,mushy peas,which were on plate,not seperate ,fish batter so soggy,not what i expected, £17 quite disappointed, such a shame,nobody came and asked if meal was ok,till we had finished,will give it another try again and see,staff were great and friendly

Was lovely sitting in pod with heating 👌🏻

Really nice pub, the improvement made to outside is fantastic. Never had a bad meal here, great spot. Only reason a 4* not 5* is because I feel they need some better value wines. It’s about £10.00 for the cheapest dry rose and be nice to have an alternative.

My regular pub. Huge beergarden, cosy atmosphere, friendly staff. Some decent beers on tap incl. Mosaic

I am a regular and I love it staff and food fantastic

The Best Burgers and Cheesy chips , Quality of food is top notch ! This is the first time both of us had returned in 10 months , Naturally Of course we found the beers had gone up dramatically , we expected it , The food had stayed around the same price .

Lovely venue, good tasty and filling food, super helpful staff. Vegan chilli vegan cheese, thank you!
