Nice local pub to chill out and I love living in the Royal Borough:-) I think I will get used to the Greyhound evenings.

The Greyhound looks like quite a small local pub from the outside and opens up to a vast interior. Glad to see a pub that’s still a pub and hasn’t been turned into yet another gastro pub. Mind you, the food is excellent, a good mixture of pub stables (bangers & mash, burgers, fish & chips) and grazing boards. The latter are extremely generously portioned and come on beautiful wooden boards.
Good choice of beers and wines, just perfect.
I would like it even more if there were fewer screens and machines slotted around the bar area.

The Greyhound is hidden away just off Kensington High Street and a nice pub to go to for a drink with friends. It has two pool tables so if you fancy a game you can come here after work. It also serves food so is a good choice for some pub grub for lunch or dinner. I used to come here for lunch a few years back when they used to have 2 main meals for £5.99 but unfortunately the price of this offer kept creeping up as the portions of the meals got smaller and smaller so it was soon no longer good value for money which was a shame.
I’ve seen a few England games here and although the atmosphere is great, the big screen TV is very badly positioned as it reaches the floor meaning that people are frequently standing or sitting in the view of the screen. For footie matches I would recommend the Kensington Arms down the road although that’s no perfect either but at least you can always see the screen.

The greyhound is such a lovely pub. the atmosphere is so comfortable and friendly. i love to play pool here, often you can play with some of the locals who try their best to beat you! the beer is great, really cheap and they do really good cocktails too. it does get very busy but normally its really nice and quiet on a sunda afternoon.

Located just off kensington high street, this is quite an upmarket pub, frequented by quite a well-off clientle. The staff though seem slightly obnoxious. It consists of two main rooms, on of which boasts two full-size and a very large projector screen for all live sports. There is always a great atmosphere there for the big games. There is a great food menu during the day which won't set you back too much. ( I would recommend the steak sandwich). The spaciousness of the pub is a nice change from the very small ones around ken hi.

Although I'd don't frequent this pub as much as I used to abuse it, whenever I'm there it reminds me of Cheers: Yes, somewhere where at least someone will know your name. The beer is reasonably priced, food is a solid pub menu for about £5-7 per plate and the locals here are top-draw - next time England play, get there early to get a seat (i.e. VERY early) and spend a couple of hours chewing through your fingernails with some of the most boisterous people Kensington can offer. The only downer is the staff seem to be on a rolling rotation these days - I didn't recognise any last time I passed through.
