The Greyhound in Wokingham

Celebrated my birthday with my family. Had the bottomless Sunday Lunch. Cara took great care of us, made it a perfect meal.

Absolutely delicious Sunday roast today to celebrate our 37th wedding anniversary. Our first visit to The Greyhound as we’ve recently moved into the area. Staff so welcoming, friendly and attentive and lovely atmosphere. We both chose roast pork and the best we’ve had eating out in a long time. Roasties, veg and cauliflower cheese, along with Yorkshire pud and pigs in blankets were so tasty and perfectly cooked - our compliments to the Chef! Lovely selection of desserts, we had apple & blackberry crumble with clotted cream, and vanilla cheesecake steeped in cherries, so delicious and homemade. Lovely addition a happy anniversary plate with chocolate brownie, so kind! A lovely afternoon and we look forward to our next visit!

Absolutely delicious Sunday Roast and a great menu for our fussy 7yr old. The food was excellent quality and the gravy was delicious. Bottomless sides was a winner! Pudding was yummy, the treacle tart (had mine with custard) was fabulous. We will be back!

I wouldn’t normally leave a negative review but if it helps improve the service then great. We came here for a birthday lunch and the service was extremely poor. We had to leave our table to chase drinks a number of times only to find them sitting on the bar on a tray with no one bringing them to us. We think it was perhaps down to the time we were there (4pm to 5pm changeover) but that shouldn’t really affect us. Food was nice though

Went for a family lunch/dinner. Lovely venue, & the staff were very helpful Keep it up

Sunday roast with bottomless sides. All of us agreed the best roast we have had at a restaurant. Service was spot on too. Will definitely be back. Highly recommend.

Used the coffee shop, nice coffee and cakes.

Can't believe I haven't been there yet. It was a really nice atmosphere, great drinks and food

Great pub / restaurant. Update: It's a bit of a shame there seems to be no bar area anymore and all set up tables for food. Still a good restaurant.

Overall a great place for good food, great service in a lovely atmosphere

Great for a Sunday roast and fab service!

Had a lovely Sunday roast at The Greyhound with my family. The service was great, the food was tasty and the atmosphere was nice. Little bit pricey but we all left full and happy so was a nice treat!

The Greyhound is a great local pub! Had a great night with live music a brilliant team and fabulous cocktails made by Matt!!! This truly is the best pub around.

The venue recently hosted my daughter's wedding. It was hard to believe it was their first one as everything was faultless and I can not praise them enough- it was the best wedding reception I have been to in my very long life. Every guest was delighted and all praised the wide variety of courses provided. The staff worked very hard with smiles on their faces over a 12 hour reception.

First wedding for them & the greyhound did a great job. Food & service were fantastic. Thank you

Great place to eat, food really good as was the service.

I have reconsidered my review following the response from the pub and some reflection. The roast beef was too tough to eat, it was difficult to get the attention of the staff and my friend was ill. This is the pub i went to, it was booked in my friend's name. I was given a complementary dessert. So there were some positives. I must adhere to my principles and report my experience honestly. I've left my previous text below for reference. I wonder if I can sum this up in one word? Rubbish. My beef would have been better employed protecting my feet. My friend was ill after the delights of the stale pork.

Great service and dinning experience. Good variety and choice on menu with the classic dishes done to perfection. Lovely ambiance to finish the summers day.

We said we will back for food :) 100% recommendation, amazing food, attentive staff,quick service. One of these places where you will back over and over again😊 Duck and pork belly die for:)

We visited recently for an anniversary lunch. The food as always was excellent quality and the service very friendly, polite and attentive. All in all, another super experience. Never disappoints.

Love this place, dog friendly, nice atmosphere etc. Food this evening a little bland, roast chicken very bland and sea trout tasteless. Not great given a bill of £90+ for two.

Such a super meal - we ended up having 3 courses as everything was delicious and well thought out. The flavours blended amazingly well making every mouthful a pleasure. The staff were delightful too.

I can find no fault in this lovely establishment at all! A beautiful building inside and out to start with. We had a booking for 3 and had had to change the time because of traffic which was no problem at all. The staff were very professional and friendly and showed us to our table outside. The choice of food was excellent and we were told they had a fresh fish delivery that day so I chose the lobster for my main and I had the goats cheese and asparagus tart with poached egg to start. The food is of very high quality and was delicious. For dessert I had the vanilla cheesecake with strawberries and they kindly wrote happy birthday in chocolate around my plate. If you have a special occasion or just want an excellent meal this is definately the place to go.

Lovely coffee shop attached to the pub, perfect place to stop off during a long walk

The staff is so caring, good food and an excellent atmosphere.

Staying with my parents in Finchampstead (they live in one of the surrounding houses to the pub) We’ve lived here for the last 18 years. Popped in around midday for a quick bite to eat with my 2.5 year old son, he needed some food before we headed back to London. Asked if they had any tables inside or out and we were immediately greeted by a rude member of staff who said there was no space for us at all (despite the pub being empty). We were looked up and down and told no. We are local to the area, have been here through all the pub owner changes. I went home and checked whether I could find a table online or whether they just genuinely didn’t have space however online there were tables available all afternoon. VERY disappointed. My parents virtually live next door - such a shame to have such a snooty pub right by the house. All we wanted was a plate of chips for my little one in the sun.

My partner and I came for lunch today and it's safe to say we'll definitely return. The food was delicious and Matt who looked after us today was fabulous, so friendly and made us feel very welcome. I'd definitely recommend.

We had a fantastic Sunday lunch for 4 here yesterday. Starting with some delicious Oysters and followed by the Greyhound’s superb Sunday roasts (beef and lamb was the choice of our table). The roasts were perfect and the added bonus of bottomless sides was great. Service was very attentive and Brian looked after us with great service and good humour too … we also enjoyed some fabulous wine from the varied list A perfect lunch in the lovely surroundings of the Greyhound - would 100% recommend - you won’t be disappointed !

Excellent service all evening from Brian & Matt whose recommendations were superb. The food presentation and quality was wonderful too. Compliments to your chefs. We will be back again very soon.

We cannot speak highly enough of The Greyhound in Finchamstead and continue to visit time and time again. The food is delicious, wine is plentiful and cocktails are the best. We are always made to feel so welcome from the moment we step through the door. This Pub/restaurant has a truly wonderful team who care about their customers! Special Thanks to Matt & Brian for a great sparkling wine recommendation - we will be back for more soon!!!

Excellent Sunday lunch at the Greyhound. Special mention to Brian Gregory and his waiting team who provided excellent service High recommended

Fabulous venue. Great food and great staff. Brian and Matt are absolutely on their game. Their recommendations are spot on..... I'm mildly annoyed that l didn't fully listen to Brian when he was telling me about a special bottle of wine they had in for tasting. I missed out! Next time, gadget!

Excellent lunch. Slightly more restaurant experience (as opposed to pub) Majors on fish

First time back here in about 25 years. It’s changed for the better. Good food and great service from a very personable waiter called James. Marmite hollandaise is a must for any Marmite fan even if only to dip your chips in.

Amazing food and great service as always. Popped in for dinner and was warmed welcomed. Had the trout and then steak which were delicious

Tried the new menu today. Fish&chips always a winner. Vegan burger was well received by our vegetarian. Pork belly was very good. But my duck dish was amazing, probably the best restaurant/pub dinner I've had in years. And birthday pudding was a lovely touch.

We visited on a bank holiday evening. Fantastic service all through the meal. Pretty location - has good parking. Wine excellent. Food wise it was ok. Desserts good. Menu very different. Presentation very good. I would think dishes are better other days. It was a last-minute decision to go there based on past reviews. We had not dined out for quite a while and did find it expensive. It became a birthday treat.

Fantastic Sunday roast with bottomless vegetables and roast potatoes. Great service and a nice atmosphere.

(June 2024) Lovely country pub. Has 0% on tap for the driver.

Really great food, was a quiet night so only 2 staff working so a little stretched between bar restaurant and the garden, beautiful place and definitely worth a detour for. Excellent lunch offer of £32 for 3 courses including a glass of prosecco.

Fabulous experience - Great food, excellent service and an all-round winner. Last time I was in the Greyhound was over 40 years ago - Changed a bit!!

Not the best roast dinner ,meat was rationed (3 thin strips) and if two people have the same roast you share 5 over cooked small roast potatoes and a small handful of carrots and cabbage (veg was well cooked and tasty )

This is difficult to write as the food is lovely and on this occasion, so were the staff. However this is my second time going to The Greyhound and finding hair in my food. The last occasion was my first visit and I found 2 pieces of hair in 2 different dishes. I was told that it was the first time they have ever found hair in their food? However I returned for the second time, hoping I wouldn’t find hair in my food. However, as we got to dessert, my partner found a hair baked into his dessert. The server did come over and replaced the meal but we were told it’s from the pastry brush and not a human hair as “that would be disgusting”. I would have believed this if this wasn’t the second time I was finding hair in my food here. I’m concerned to think that I cannot be the only person finding hairs in my food before eating it. You would also think that due to the premium pricing of the restaurant, that food quality wouldn’t be this poor. Our meals still cost around £89… Unfortunately I won’t be returning as the redemption visit I tried to give it, was not successful.

What a terrific find, this gastro pub has a superb menu, fantastic wines (including local vineyards) and friendly, knowledge staff. The smoked trout caesar salad and Fowey mussels were especially good, highly recommended, will most definitely be back.

Well cooked food, a cut above the typical ‘gastropub’. Served by friendly and competent staff. Will return.

Lovely food, wine and ambience. It was nice to have a choice with something different on the menu from the norm

Why we've not found this place sooner I don't know. Great menu and lovely staff made for a great evening with a warm summer vibe. Looking fw to their "Répertoire de la Cuisine" gastro evening in September!

One of the best roast dinners I have ever tasted! The staff were extremely polite and friendly and extremely accommodating. The arena outside is super chill, with "wagons" for a more intimate experience, with heat lamps. Will definitely be back!!

I chose the fish and chips, the fish wasn’t in good condition, I could feel that the mushy and disgusting texture was not normal. The waiter (I believe he was the manager) offered to bring another one but with a very condescending attitude, I could understand perfectly he wasn’t believing in me. The second fish was perfect, very fresh and tasty. He asked how was the second fish and I told him that it was very good, very different from the first one. That would be his opportunity to apologise. He didn’t. At the end, we paid the full bill, no compensation for ruining our meal and again no apologies.

Did not quite live up to what it ‘says on the box’ as the menu read wonderfully! Possibly a busy Sunday with too many covers to fully pay attention to flavours and seasoning. Lovely venue, friendly staff, just too many short cuts on ensuring that the food delivered on taste and expectations.

Downside : the restaurant felt cold .may be as only 13 people eating. Service very good and food was fabulous.

We had a great experience. It is more expensive but you are taken care of. The venue itself is splendid to look at from the outside and in. Staff are welcoming and check-in often enough to attend to your tables needs but not so much to be obtrusive. The carpark is uneven so do take care.

Returned here after several visits to have lunch with a few friends. Selected the set menu. The food was OK but lacked taste and was very limited in size. We had Slow Cooked Lamb, Burger and also Whole Cornish plaice. Rather unfortunate as the place is very nice and service fine.

Great quality food at lunch, all four of us left completely clean plates. And great service. We’ll be back soon to see if that standard can be maintained!

Everything was excellent here and I'll certainly be returning. The service in particular stood out, the staff were very attentive and the bar staff were totally crushing it, every order was delivered very rapidly. The Sunday Roast was amazing with great trimmings.

Food was a bit slow but the friendly staff kept us informed and provided free drinks. Well presented and very tasty food. A nice evening out and we're definitely coming back soon.

We came on Easter Sunday, it was fabulous, can’t fault the food, we had the pork and chicken roasts which were tasty and of a high quality. My only comment would be the wine by the glass was a bit pricey but you get that in most places nowadays. Our second time visiting and we will definitely return.

The greyhound goes back a very long way for me. I’ve known it for as long as I’ve lived in Finchampstead and that’s coming up to 20 years. I’ve seen it change from hand to hand and it only seems to be getting better. I remember going with my Grandad after school to have a pudding! With a lot of strong competition in the area, The Greyhound is still my go to. My mum, I and my grandad ate on Easter bank holiday Monday and were very satisfied. It was safe to say there was no room for any chocolate after the well-sized portions. The eloquent young lady who partly served us stood out as extremely polite and caring. I have never had bad service here. I’ve been here approximately 50+ times in my lifetime and it never fails to disappoint. The food is always excellent, the staff are very professional and friendly. Even the chairs are exceptionally comfortable, which seems to be rare to find in a pub nowadays! Pat on the back to the Greyhound team!

We came here for lunch on Easter Monday as a couple of friends recommended this, especially for the beef wellington which sadly was not on the menu. Lovely airy and modern feel to the dining area. Food ok, husband had a burger which was quite pink inside which he ate but he would have preferred more cooked and I had the chicken which was lovely. He ordered chocolate delice for pudding which he liked, my only grumble was that I asked if I could have cheese and biscuits for one as on the menu for the price (i think £14) it was clearly meant for sharing and the waitress said no, the kitchen couldn’t do that which I thought was a bit odd as you could have just had less cheese and less crackers! Anyway I ended up with the jersey rice pudding which was nice although I was expecting it to be hot and not cold. I think we will try again and hopefully will be up to the five stars that everyone else has given. They must be doing something right though as it was extremely busy so I would recommend booking.

Served by Matt, the best pornstar martini 🍸 Silky and smooth ! 5 star service and ingredients. Highly recommend. Such a freindly experience and a very dishy front of house Michael made us very welcome.

Absolute shambles of a place. Used to be a nice little pub with decent pub meals. Clearly changed ownership as it's now a wannabe boujee restaurant. Food took a long time to arrive, tiny portion sizes, and menu items including £25 for a small rabbit pie and some broccoli. £150 for 3 people to wait hours to have an average at best meal, when there were 2 other tables of 2 in the place. Waitress didn't check for allergies, breaching legal obligation, checked once how the food was and didn't really respond when told it was mediocre and overpriced. Someone needs their head checking. The bill turned up in an empty passport case?

Highly recommended for a nice weekday lunch. Friendly and efficient staff, a nice variety on the fixed price lunch menu, and excellent food. The mackerel starter was fantastic. We were there to celebrate my mum’s birthday, and it was lovely that the staff realised that and acknowledged it quietly. We will be back.

Beautiful spot, spacious bar and dining areas and good outdoor garden too with some cabins with heat lamps. Really tasty Sunday lunch, all the trimmings and the offer of extra anything. Wonderful service, attentive but not insistent and ever helpful. Absolutely spot on will come again and been looking into the ‘secret supper club’ dinners!

Jess and Matt were amazing ! Came for a couple drinks with friends and the service was great! I couldn’t recommend this place enough.

Matt had been fantastic - great bar service, lovely food & drink! We’ll certainly be back in the future, for plenty more afternoons settled in at the bar!

Great night ! Matt gave great service, I thought the pub was great. Drinks were great. Had a fantastic night. Favourite pub in the area.

If you go to the greyhound make sure you ask for Matt and Jess , they were absolutely class, professional and really welcoming great members of staff to the greyhound bar staff

It was actually the charming farm shop that we visited- part of The Greyhound - lovely service,friendly, helpful staff and a great choice of food and drink. Well worth a visit

Hey I went to the greyhound with multiple work colleagues. This was an immensely important trip. The service was absolutely amazing. A young lady named Jess served us and was so amazing she dealt with all of our needs. Honestly what a great pub. I’d go to the greyhound for many more work trips. 10:10 service. Thank you Jess.

Went to this place in mother's day. Even though we hadn't booked , Got us a table straight away great food

We visited a weekday lunchtime and had a friendly greeting. Service was attentive and Matt took good care of us. We had the cheese burger and chicken dish and both were delicious. Not to mention the croquettes to start which were also amazing. Lovely atmosphere and surroundings, clean facilities- will definitely be back!

Met up on Mother’s Day with family. Good atmosphere. Roast Beef tender with delicious trimmings. Everyone happy with their meals . Staff were friendly and attentive and lovely with my 18 month old who likes to explore! Felt relaxed, not rushed . Busy all afternoon.

Worth dropping in for a morning coffee. The little shop offers a nice range of food. The staff are really nice as is the building and location. Nice cakes on offer. Well done

Food and service very good. Best restaurant we have been to in local area for some time. Highly Recommended.

Very pleasant interior with lots of dining capacity. Quite expensive menu which the Sunday lunch didn't really justify. Service was first class.

Fantastic gastropub in Finchampstead. We sat down at the bar for a few drinks before our table was ready and Matt kept the fantastic cocktails flowing. Matt makes a mean Margarita & Whisky Sour! Once we sat down at our table Tom gave us the best service, replacing our mussel shell dishes as they were filling up, checking up on us throughout the evening and he kept the wine flowing. The food was delicious and service fantastic, and they even gave us a little birthday brownie to wish the birthday girl. Fantastic food, great atmosphere and drinks, we will definitely be back very soon!

How Lucky are we to call this our local .. Great staff .. especially the lovely Alexa always a warm welcome … great atmosphere as well! Good choice of drinks and food never disappoints x

First time here. Lovely pub. Friendly staff. A little disappointed that the Sunday menu is just roast. But bearing that in mind I had the chicken and my friend had the nut roast. Disappointment sums up both meals. Very dry. Tough chicken. Dry roast potatoes. The Yorkshire was almost in edible. Arrive was great though. Would come again for drinks. Or maybe to try the main weekday menu.

Absolutely fabulous pub! Really friendly and helpful staff, food was wonderful. Fantastic, and dog friendly as well. Thanks to everyone at The Greyhound for a really great Sunday afternoon! Cheers!

We booked a last-minute table for 6 adults and 3 kids on a Monday lunchtime. Service was friendly and efficient, food was delicious and really good value for money. Will definitely be back!

Excellent lunch and handling of our big party of 12. Really attentive service and the food was delicious. Many of us had the roast beef (beautifully pink) and all the trimmings were also excellent.

Myself & my BF absolutely love this place. The minute you walk in the door someone asks if they can help you. Extremely polite & professional and chatty. Food is yummy especially the desserts. We go there regularly

Made an enquiry on 12/09/23 for Christmas Day booking at 1pm for x3, the response was only 12.00 & 2.30pm free. Booking so early was disappointed that 1pm tables had all gone. We've been out for Christmas Day for many years and always secured our desired time. Must have been off the ball in 2023. We arrive at 12.00 full of Christmas cheer and excited for our Christmas lunch. We where greeted and escorted into a complety empty dining room, hummmm okay we must be the first!. 20 minutes later we asked the server where is everybody she said they will be busier later. One hour later a table for x2 arrived by this point we had become so uncomfortable with the experience we had received being the only table in a completely empty restaurant with the staff staring constantly we felt like a zoo exhibition. The starter arrived and once cleared removed within seconds of the cutlery being placed and the main arrived meer minutes after. The whole experience was horrible I've had more atmosphere at a wake than at the greyhound. More tables did arrive around 1.20pm and by the time we made a hasty exit at 1.40am the resturant was a 1/3 full. Leaving me baffled as to WHY we where given such a time at the response email. The greyhound deliberately placed us in an completely empty restaurant for 80% of our meal which was £110 each + drinks and £50 inforced tip the server made it clear they did not want to be there. Who ever runs this place clearly stares as the profits and does not want returning custom. We had been regular patrons until 2023 wake-mas. Now its avoided like the plague and not recommended to anyone I come in contact with.

Had our New year's eve family night out here. Very nice and classy 👌

A Gastro-Pub tucked away in Eversley. Popped in for a Sunday Roast. Service and food was excellent.

Everything is amazing about this place. Just wish they had a cozy fireplace, and that’s me wishing.

Lovely place, great menu, tasty food and good service

Just had a fabulous meal here. It’s hard to come by both good food and good service these days, and the Greyhound ticked both those boxes! Food was really lovely with good portion sizes and the staff were attentive. Thank you! :)

Beautiful place for dinner, the food was so good . Only thing that lets this place down is the parking, but don't let it deter you from the yummy food and good service inside

Excellent service and great food today for a party of 11. Friendly and efficient staff. Good portion size and flavour

Great food, amazing service, the space is just perfect. Will return for sure!

Amazing food amazing service and atmosphere I took my father for his 85 birthday and he raved about his lamb shank and my hake was to die for ! I recently ate at the beehive in white Waltham which is nice but this is exceptional fabulous will definitely be back

Fab food, a little pricier than other local pubs, but really wonderful food every time, so worth it if you can!

Beautiful pub, great service with exceptionally friendly staff. Went for a Sunday lunch, 3 of us had roast unfortunately the food was luke warm, I think it had been sitting on the pass, plated up and waiting. The non roast eaters had hot food, so theirs seems to have been made fresh. Two of the puddings were cold, we sent those back which they provided new ones and removed them from the bill. Overall was disappoining as the food is the most important part of a pub experience. I would go back if I was with friends who wanted to eat there, but wouldn't go back on my own accord.

Had a lovely meal in this very stylish location. Worth checking online for their 'secret' dinning experiences.

Went for a lunch to celebrate our Golden Wedding and we were not disappointed. Good choice and friendly and efficient staff

Came here with a big group for a Sunday roast and was SO impressed! Our waitress was so friendly, helpful and the service was very quick. Food was really tasty with big portions, genuinely one of the best roasts i’ve had! Can’t wait to come back :-)

Really enjoy eating & drinking here
