Welcome
Since reopening after lockdown we have had the pleasure of welcoming old friends and made many new friends providing a great experience for everybody in a COVID safe environment. We continue to review everything we do from creating exceptional seasonal food and drink offerings to improving our COVID safe working practices. We know the virus and its impact will be with us for some time, but rest assured the whole Greyhound team is working tirelessly to make your experience memorable, enjoyable and above all SAFE. If you have any questions either before arrival or whilst you are here with us do please ask, we will be happy to help.
Although it is not necessary to book a table it is strongly recommended that you do so as we have reduced capacity both inside and in our stunning garden to ensure social distancing and customer safety. Only tables in the restaurant can be booked and currently outside tables can not be booked and are available on a first come first served basis. The easiest way to book if via the booking button on our website or by calling us on 01929 480205. We are strictly adhering to the RULE OF SIX. Please do not book a table for a group of more than six and please do not be offended if we refuse to take a booking for a larger group as it is important that we all adhere to regulations that are in all of our interests.
Our current opening time is 11am and our last booking time for dinner is 8pm. Between 3pm and 5pm we serve pizza and sandwiches only. These times are subject to change at short notice dependent on the local or national restrictions in place at the time. Finally, please be patient with the team here at the Greyhound. We have a reduced menu, though we update it regularly and the pub classics are always available and we do not serve fast food. We serve great food as quickly as we can.

Whether you’re looking for a relaxed catch up with friends over brunch or lunch with a sharing platter, or a delicious classic pub lunch after a family walk around Corfe Castle, to a romantic meal with a loved one. Whatever the occasion, we are the perfect stop off point and you can be sure that we’ve got the freshest ingredients for you to enjoy in our unique setting under the shadow of the historic Corfe Castle ruins.
Our food is fresh, seasonal, local and, like so many things in life, best kept simple.
We offer a range of the finest cask ales, keg lagers and ciders from local breweries such as The Dorset Brewing Company, Ringwood Brewery and the Purbeck Cider Company. We also have a premium wine selection featuring wines from around the world, along with a large selection of mainline and boutique spirits, including our own infusions.
Here at The Greyhound Inn we love our food, and the satisfaction of our guests is our number one priority. Our menus offer a variety of dishes to appeal to all dietary choices so, whether you’re vegan, veggie, Gluten Free, celiac or fancy something completely new, there’s plenty of dishes for you to try – Just take your pick from our stunning selection of small dishes, larger plates, sharing platters and indulgent desserts.
Not sure what drink will complement your meal? Our skilled bar staff are on hand to offer advice on our large selection of drinks. Whether it be a full-bodied red wine to pair with a beautifully cooked steak, a hoppy ale from a local brewery or maybe you’re a lover of artisan gins and would like to try our house infused spirits or cocktails; our extensive drinks list is sure to have something which will take your fancy.
All of us the Greyhound look forward to serving you.

Pre-booked a table for Sunday lunch for a day trip to Corfe.
Clean premises with a, now normal, one way system in place and masks required if moving around the pub.
We arrived nearly an hour early for our table and were welcomed and accommodated with a table.
Generous portions, and nicely cooked.
The staff were pleasant and attentive.
Dogs are welcome – no mask required for them .
Toilets are clean but the hand dryer in the ladies is situated quite high up – a challenge for shorter people.

We called here spontaneously on our last day of our holiday and were really glad that we did. We sat outside in the dog friendly beer garden with fabulous views of Corfe Castle and passing steam trains on the Swanage Railway.
There was an outside bar which made food and drink orders really simple and easy. Our food came quickly and was delicious.

Booked a table for dinner this evening with my family on the last night of our holiday and we’re gutted that we didn’t discover The Greyhound on the first day! When we arrived the woman behind the bar was very quick to make us feel welcome and gave us the option of sitting outside or showing us to our table which was nice. We arrived a little early for our booking so took the opportunity to go outside for a drink from the garden bar with a beautiful view of the castle before going in for our food. Inside, table service was flawless and the mussels and cheese pizza were absolutely delicious even the kids meals were tasty and a good portion! The churros were also a big hit with the kids A thoroughly enjoyable evening I have never used tripadvisor but thought it was well worth leaving a review on this one

I’m still sat in the garden as I type this. The meal was so fantastic I had to review straight away. The atmosphere here is great and there are easy to follow covid rules. The young guy at the bar was friendly and welcoming, food was delivered with a smile (behind a mask) and the mussels were heavenly. I can’t wait to return again! The tables are constantly being cleaned well by 2 chirpyembwra of staff to ensure clean and safe and all staff are wearing a mask. Really fabulous find.

I came here for lunch before visiting the castle on a Wednesday afternoon. The staff were so friendly and welcoming; I’ve been here a few times now and they know my drink and are always pleased to see me. I had the carnivore pizza with mushrooms and it was soooo good! Yesterday I had the chorizo burger which was massive and delicious.
Thank you to everyone at the greyhound, I’ll be back soon.
