The Greyhound in South Norfolk

3 of us stayed here for the night and throughout our stay we where all very pleased with the rooms and facilities you have provided, the bar staff where nice. The breakfast was lovely and the bar man even gave us our drinks for free! It was perfect and I’d definitely recommend it.

There have been some very negative views of The Greyhound over the past few months since it reopened and rightly so. Following a meeting with local residents where there were some pretty strong views expressed, Darryl is starting to turn this pub back into the village pub it should be. The large outdoor stage has gone, it is under new management (Shane) and best of all it is returning back to The Greyhound and "The Venue" is no more. The atmosphere is now much better, the language improved and the quality of staff. If you haven't tried the Sunday lunch, it's definitely worth it as are the other meals too. If you were disappointed a few months ago, give it another chance, you will definitely notice big and positive improvements with more to come.

We held an 18th birthday party at the greyhound, daryl was so helpful from the start. Sid the chef made an amazing buffet, he went above and beyond with the food and it was simply amazing and so tasty. I would 100% recommend the greyhound and the staff. Amazing effort from the team.

Landlord and staff very friendly, food was excellent. Pub has just been refurbished to a high standard. Will definitely go back.

Another place struck by everything negative about this day and age, sadly I don't think this place will be around for much longer. Never imagined there were still people out there who would cover up wooden beams in a historic building. A very unwelcoming fence now at the front of the pub, I was the only customer here, and what I presumed to be the owner stands out in the garden, giving you a cold condescending look to make sure no one comes back. The person behind the bar was friendly but they seemed to not want to be there. Hopefully when the inevitable happens, the village is able to buy this pub and bring it back to feeling like their second home. Modernization isn't a bad thing when done right, but when every little bit is gone in a remote area full of local people with local memories without their consultation, it's going to be very difficult for anyone to come back and embrace what it is now. Hopefully brighter days are ahead, specially after this place survived Watney Mann in the 1970s.

We booked a table for 6 on 12th August for my mum’s Birthday at 5 pm. When we arrived the staff were not able to find our reservation, which we had booked a couple of weeks in advance. We were taken to a table and the table cloth was covered in thunder flies. We were then told that the kitchen didn’t open until 5.30. Although we were told on the phone, when we were making the reservation that it opened at 5. We were then told after ordering drinks, that it opened at 6pm. I tried ordering the wild mushroom risotto, but was then told that it was unavailable. We ordered some Parmesan truffle fries with our meal and when the meal arrived, we didn’t receive them. We asked the waitress for them and we were then told that they didn’t have any Parmesan, that was why we didn’t receive them. They didn’t tell us when we ordered them. My nan ordered pulled pork and that was dry, so she couldn’t eat much of it. It was terrible service and it spoilt my mum’s birthday.

Lovely staff and had a very nice pint of their own stout …

Only called for a quick pint and to be nosy, what a brilliant change inside and out Beer was excellent as was the service we'll return to try out the food 😋

When we arrived the restaurant was empty which should have set alarm bells ringing but two other tables were filled soon after so we went with it. Pizzas were 2 for 1 which was a nice touch HOWEVER..... There were 6 of us and we waited about an hour for food. All items came out over about a 15 minute period and we had to chase items. We were told several times that the chef was stressed! The gravy was very lumpy and inedible. The chicken was dry. We had to chase side dishes and although we were donated an extra portion of chips it didn't really make up for the watery coleslaw and dry meat. One pizza was supposed to have pesto on it, we ended up asking for some as you couldn't taste it. Upon paying and airing our frustrations we were not offered any discount. We were only asked if our food was all OK at the end of our meal. Won't be returning sadly. Beautiful location just felt non atmospheric.

Recently undergone a major refurbishment of the pub and the grounds. Our first visit since it reopened and was totally impressed. What a fantastic job has been done. The Venue (The Greyhound) deserves to succeed. It offers so much more than just a pub. With all the outside seating, so much under cover, the childrens play area, the music stage and large screen, the events facilities etc. Lastly the lovely girls who served us, friendly and happy. We live in Wymondham but have family almost next door to the pub so this is going to be a regular for us.

My wife and I found it to be a nice place to stay for the weekend in the nice accommodation they have available the food was good and the staff were nice and friendly live music on Saturday evening and quiet at night.

Great country pub for a pint. They have a big screen out back for watching sport and a quieter courtyard type area at the front

We had heard good things about the re opening so came down early for some food and to watch the Euros final . Owner and staff couldn't have been friendlier and food was great . Was really busy for the final but everything was set up really well Is a great place to take your family for some good food and also to support someone trying to bring something to the local community

Having visited this beautiful village many times I feel that I must put in writing how awful this place is, I come from Scotland and I cannot believe that this awful place is permitted. You could not find a worse place in the most deprived areas that compared to this dump. The language being spouted across the tannoy beggars believe xenophobic, vulgar & aggressive. I feel heart sore for all who live in what was a little paradise and now have to suffer this transformation.

The food was tasty and the staff were very friendly, the only thing I would say is that some of the portion sizes are a little bit unusual… A child’s portion of the children’s menu had more chips on than my main meal, but it was very tasty!

Pub has re-opened but tacked on a new restaurant building and huge outdoor seating area with giant screen for euro 2024. a massive place in the middle of nowhere. Great place to watch the football. Burger exceeded expectations, can tell its from a good local butcher. Also had good selection of beers and ale on tap inc victoria bitter

First I've been since the refurbishment , they've done a great job, really updated it but it still has a bit of the old greyhound, which is lovely. Food was awesome, staff were lovely, will definitely be going back.

Warm and friendly welcome, good beers and a superb relaxing atmosphere! 5🌟

Your opinion of this old world village local, will depend on your taste in pubs. This is my kind of pub. Of which, there are too few. Traditional, cosy and focussing on serving good real ales. Lacons Norfolk Gem and 3 beers by Grain Brewery. Well kept. And it had a relaxed convivial friendly atmosphere. That is. Not plastic, formulaic and designed on an office computer. Some memorabilia on the wall, related to the wartime history of Tibenham airfield, where JJ. J... James Stewart was based. The locals weren't Royston Vasey types and were very welcoming.. They don't have a menu but they have sausage rolls or pies sometimes.The half dozen locals were tucking into a take away Indian, with the full blessing of the landlord. I'll be going Again!

Fab, friendly landlord who always takes the time to say hi to the kids. Lovely atmosphere. Always feel welcome

Top pub.. Great beer and top staff.

Great Pub, Landlord, service and customers. Cheerz

Good old fashioned village pub, with a roaring log fire in the winter. Supports village events and also hosts a range of events through the year. Keep up the good work Rob.

Fab atmosphere, great for the kids to play football out the back. Rob always welcoming and now I have a 'usual" woohoo!!

This little freindly pub has a great carvery

Friendly local pub with nice staff and the food looked good

If you like small, no fuss, country pubs you'll like the Greyhound. The drinks are cheap and the fire is warm.

Wonderful place with great character and lovely atmosphere with great ales

good beer good food great people

Super Sunday lunch. Roast beef from the carvery for just £8.50. You can't beat that. Lovely traditional pub atmosphere

Lovely, welcoming traditional pub. We greatly appreciated their flexibility in providing vegetarian food without us giving prior notice on a busy Sunday lunchtime.

A great pub. I frequented this pub many times in the 70s and 80s. It is still the same. A great pub for quality beer. A cosy retreat where one can wind down. It is a absolute must to visit. A pub which has not sold it's soul to the 'demands' of modern commercialism. It is a genuine place.

Great traditional pub, with good beer and friendly atmosphere.

Very nice country pub with log fire and real ale

Proper village pub; thank you for keeping it that way . . . .

Friendly, old fashioned, community pub. Not really a foodie pub but the centre of the village community. Links to Tibenham airfield with an annual 1940's weekend.

Nice country pub and one's a year there is a motorcycle rally held here that was called the Flecher Rally. But unfortunately he has died, so this yaer 2018 a memorial rally is being held here. You will get a warm welcome here. The pub has a large pice of land at the rear for adventis.

Came here for a roast, best roast dinner i have ever had, staff were so friendly and helpful, if you’re ever in the area defiantly come for a roast, the beef was fantastic!

One of the best roasts ive had. Beef was cooked to perfection and melted in the mouth. Would highly recommend!

Reservé para 24 en nuestro grupo para un domingo asado. Tengo que decir que el chef no pudo hacer lo suficiente para nosotros. Comimos carne asada y pavo y es uno de los mejores asados ​​que he comido en un pub o restaurante. Recomiendo encarecidamente este pub pero tendrá que reservar ya que el asador es muy popular entre los lugareños.

In my opinion the Greyhound is the best of the village pubs in this part of South Norfolk. The food nights are good and I've been to both the sausage and mash and curry nights. My one criticism is that some of the bar staff seem to know nothing about the beer on offer at all.

A very nice country pub. A 1940's event is held there with everyone dressing in wartime style and the people are always very friendly

Great pub good food and if you want to take caravan cheap as chips

Great place for caravanning or camping nice pub and friendly staff would definately visit again

Friendly staff and good beer. Nice garden for quiet pint in the sun

Brilliant pub. Way out in the sticks & found this place closed but seeing it was a community pub went back later. Had a warm welcome from the sole proprietor & leaned a bit of history about the local airfields & the previous landlady connection with the Beatles. Really nice homely atmosphere, they were not doing food that night & do have a very limited menu, but this place is an absolute gem. The beers was in fantastic condition & we has a thoroughly wonderful visit.

Nice country side pub we stop here for a quick half while we were out on the bikes

Fabulous pub and food. As now cold welcoming open log fire. Small but cosy and friendly. Good beer always.

Run by Robert - this is a great out of the way country pub with history. The film star James Stewart often used it when he was in charge of Tibenham & Old Buckenham airfields during WWII. It features Curry Night on Tuesdays, Sausage & Mash on Thursdays and Friday Fry-Up (sausage, chicken or scampi, all with chips) on Friday. This is from 7pm at a price of £6. The Sunday roast from 1pm is popular and highly recommended, but booking is advisable. This pub has atmosphere, large grounds including a play area, adequate parking and a friendly staff and locals. Not many traditional pubs like this thriving today. They also have many themed and re-enactment weekends throughout the year. All in all well worth the effort to find it.

Great atmosphere and lovely roast lunch.

Village pub, good choice of drinks

Lovely country pub good beer and have some great events on

Super Bowl of curry and rice on Tuesday night only a £5. Great welcome and beer

Excellent location great venue lovely people

Fantastic pub, fantastic landlord and lady and even better beer. Keep up the great work.
