   Great meal found unexpectedly when working nearby. All 4 of us had different meals and all 4 were lovely. So good; we’re heading back tomorrow!!

   If you are popping there just for a beer and something light I’m sure it’s lovely. Ambience is nice and staff are very friendly. However the food was over priced and very very disappointing. Everything was just bland. We ordered ribeye and sirloin steak and the steaks themselves tasted bland, no sear on them at all very very disappointing as they had a very limited menu you would think they at least cooked those dishes well but no. Had a cocktail which just tasted watery as well. However the staff really are lovely and friendly and a beautiful atmosphere so if they just maybe focused a bit more on the food standards this would be 5+ place but as we came for food and left very disappointed and quite a bit out of pocket we will likely not return. I was very disappointed and wished we had booked somewhere else.

   A nice country pub and good menu. Could do with a couple more vegetarian choices. Friendly staff and somewhere we visit often.

   Our meal at the Greyhound at Usk was perfect for a sunny springtime midweek night. Our hosts were very helpful. The service was attentive and friendly, a little slow due to the large number of customers, but this was not an issue. On the contrary, I feel that it was a testimony to the popularity of the venue, an achievement for any countryside pub these days. All ages were represented, even what looked like a local boules club, a refreshing sight. The food was perfect quality simple pub grub, beautifully presented and plentiful. It featured the Welsh double mix of rice, or pasta and chips for accompaniment. The selection tapas was good and we had some for a starter. The meat dishes - burger and lasagna - tasted homemade and the meat was not fatty. I appreciate that it is locally produced with care in the vale of Usk, as per the website mention. With options to sit inside or outside with heaters, or under the shelter of a heated covered room facing the green, we were very pleased with the experience. We look forward to returning.

    This was our first visit to the venue. The pub and hotel are lovely with beautifully manicured gardens and a water feature. There is plenty of well thought out seating outside and the pub has a traditional yet very clean feel about it, with stone floors and a couple of cosy bar areas, with seating in little rooms around the pub. There is also a large private dining area. The pub is situated in a lovely rural location just outside Usk with lovely views. The only downside is the motorway on the other side and although you can’t see it, you can hear it. The prices are a little above average for a pub roast ie £21 and cauliflower cheese is extra. The deserts are £9 each. The food was well presented and I am sure it was good produce, but in our party of fours opinion it was not cooked very well. The roast potatoes spoilt it as they were like small round overcooked potato balls, and some were inedible. We of course gave polite feedback when they were taking our plates. The deserts were basic pub style and not worthy in quality of the £9 price tag although the quantity was there. Overall we enjoyed the venue, the staff were friendly and welcoming, but unless the food improves for the price point we won’t be in a hurry to return which is a great shame. Maybe the chef had an off day, or there was something wrong with the oven or may be the chef needs more training. This is just our experience on one lunch time so I would like to see positive comments going forward to reassure us that it is either not usually like this or it has improved, as putting aside the average food it is a lovely venue.
