Quinno _ left this review about The Greyhound
A pleasant Adnams pub in a very posh part of Ipswich, with some stunning old houses to look at on the walk in up the hill via Fonnereau Road. In contrast this is a fairly simple brick building however the exterior, festooned with flora, certainly fits in. The interior consists of two long rooms either side of the bar and a sizeable rear area. Mustard yellow, white and greyish blue are the predominant colours. Extremely busy and we got the last table left, a tiny two-seater in a corner by the rear bar. A legion of young staff who were to a (wo)man busy, friendly and efficient. Four ales from Adnams, I plumped for a Mosaic (NBSS 3.5) and a half of the Dry Hopped Lager. Big on food here and most of the clientele were eating but we weren’t made to feel unwelcome. A good all-rounder, at a quieter time I may have liked it even more.
Visited early August.

The Greyhound is an Adnams pub, uphill from the town centre. I arrived yesterday afternoon to find a sign stating that they were fully booked. However, seeing that there were free tables, I decided to chance my arm and ask if they had one available for a swift half.
To my surprise, the staff were friendly and accommodating and instead of the patronising "have you booked" remarks I seem to be getting everywhere, they gladly showed me to a table, in what is quite a large outdoor area to the side and rear of the pub.
Southwold Bitter, Broadside, Ghost Ship & Mosaic were the real ales. I opted instead for the Wild Wave cider, which was nothing special.
A nice drinking environment, with a pleasant atmosphere and good service made this my favourite pub of my first 6 of the day in Ipswich.

Small traditional road pub, basic but good for it
