Great pub with a good atmosphere and a good roast dinner on a Sunday.
We had the roast beef and it was delicious.
Staff were really friendly and attentive and made you feel welcome. Felt like the place had a real buzz about it over lunch.
Will have to go back on an evening to see what it's like.
Kid-friendliness: No probs with our 8 year old and had a kids menu. The child's roast beef dinner was great with a really good portion size
Booked their function room for a party. Amazing service and a really great private room.
Tasty Food, great staff and cosy environment
Great local pub serving quality food.
We visited recently and were impressed by their flat iron steaks, which were delicious and good value too. The new outdoor seating area is fabulous too - it's a great addition.
I an a vegetarian and also have various food intolerances and I was looked after, and fed, very well. The food is delicious. The staff are great and the pub has a lovely atmosphere. My partner said it was the best Sunday roast he'd had for years (and we have visited a lot of London pubs and tried their roasts)
I couldn’t fault it.
We went for a Sunday Roast, which was really good, particularly the roast potatoes and red cabbage!
However, throughout the meal, the service was bad. There seemed to be two people actively working for the “restaurant section” of the pub: one was attentive, but also doing other parts of the pub and the other was absent.
Though a 12.5% Service Charge was added to the bill (which we paid because the food was good), we could not get anyone’s attention to order more drinks, get the bill, etc. so we ended up having to go to the bar to do these.
Vegetarian options: The nut roast was vegetarian and can be made vegan.
Had a much better experience here recently - arrived for mid-afternoon lunch on Sunday and place was nice and clean and staff friendly and attentive - managed to get a roast at 5pm on Sunday when other pubs in Sydenham had closed their kitchens and didn’t want my business.
It is a very cosy palce and the waiters are so friendly.

Lunch on a Saturday. Food was delicious, I had a steak with great flavour - could have had a few more chips!
Our waitress was lovely, friendly and attentive. There is also a lovely function room for hire with a reasonable minimum spend.
I found the toilets downstairs to be a bit dingy and not very fresh which is why I haven’t given 5 stars.
Fantastic roast lunch.
Staff were amazing.
More places should be like this !
The Greyhound is a gorgeous pub, and we had a fantastic experience hiring the private room for a family dinner before our wedding. The service was exceptional and food delicious as always. Thank you to Jason and all the staff!
My friend had a stroke so loud music is painful to him. When we asked for the music to be turned down he was told it is for young people. Sad that the Greyhound is ageist and contemptuous of illness. We old ones have the money and would have spent a lot on dinner had we had a nicer reception. Horrible place, unpleasant, untrained staff. Avoid.
I recently planned my grandad’s surprise 80th birthday party in the private function room, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, Jason, the manager, was incredibly organised, communicated effectively, and provided fantastic service throughout the entire event. No request was too big or too small for him, and his attention to detail ensured everything ran smoothly. The food was delicious and our guests left expressing how much they enjoyed themselves. I highly recommend this venue for any special occasion!
