Quinno _ left this review about The Greyhound
Has a new manager and a bit more beer emphasis, plus a brighter bar. Four on the other night, three Fullers and a guest (bland Hydes). The ESB was fine.
October 2013
The outside is a lovely-looking old thatched cottage (though actually it’s a rebuild as the original burnt down in a fire a few years back). The inside is all low beams (one of them has been given a foam cladding to stop anyone over 5ft bashing their heads on it) and country pub dining ambience rules the day. Have been in a few times and had mixed experiences.  First visit found some decent Fuller's beer including a guest (Elgood's Cambridge) in good nick and I enjoyed my brief stay. Second and third visits found only two of the Fuller's on, in variable condition. A potential gem that's lost it's lustre a bit with me.
