The Greyhound, Trowbridge

Didn't look open from the outside, painted an unappealing anaemic mushy pea colour with the door closed. Gave it a push to find a fairly basic interior which has also succumbed to the Wilko paint brush, though some of the original parquet flooring and bottle green leatherette bench seating remains and the furniture looks like it's the best part of 50 years old - the chairs will sell for quids to hipsters and were actually quite comfy. Pool table in the very basic left side space and UK TV Gold to keep the locals amused in the other, said locals all gabbing away and quite witty as well, classic pub banter. Two pumps with a serviceable Tribute on offer (NBSS 3). You won't be dashing here but as a basic friendly local it does a job. GBG’22 listed but can see why it didn't make the ’23 edition. Trowbridge is a poor pub town so you might want to give this one a try for the leftfield value. 5.5
