The Greyhound Inn ‘Where Historic Charm Meets Supurb Dining’ is nestled underneath Corfe Castle and is found easily in the village.

There’s a choice of sitting in the brilliant beer terrace, cosy inside or outside the front of the pub.

The staff are knowledgeable and friendly and believe the satisfaction of the guests is number one.

The beer terrace has amazing close-up views of Corfe Castle. There are plenty of photo opportunities, a great atmosphere and picturesque scenery all around.

It’s a large terrace with lots of seating. Lots of dog walkers frequent the pub and it’s the perfect spot to admire the various dogs.

On warm, sunny days, live music is sometimes played, adding to the relaxing vibe.

As well as the castle, you’ll hear the sounds and may get a glimpse of the Swanage steam train making its way through the village. It’s arguably one of the best spots in Dorset!

The terrace also has a bar offering delicious drinks, many from local breweries such as The Dorset Brewery, Ringwood Brewery and Purbeck Cider Company.

On offer also are a range of wines, spirits, cocktails and soft drinks.

There’s nothing better than a cold, refreshing drink in the sun.

The food on offer is fresh, seasonal and locally sourced, presented in beautiful and eye pleasing ways.

The hearty roast dinners are the perfect way to warm up after a chilly walk in the country.

If a roast dinner isn’t your thing, then burgers, salads, and traditional ‘pub grub’ dishes are on offer.

The Greyhound is well known for its fantastic homemade pizzas. A thin and crispy base, homemade passata and a wide range of toppings, all prepared in a wood-fired oven, a recipe for an excellent pizza.
