Expecting only a typical country pub, the Greyhound turned out to be nicer than I'd hoped. It's…read moreobviously been renovated recently and has some nice, modern, cozy chairs and tables. Two rooms have tables for dining and drinking (quite busy on the autumn weekend I was there). There's a pool/games room at one end, and a paved patio of tables for a drink outside on a sunny day. I had a super Sunday roast lunch there after doing a quite nice walk (http://www.chilternsaonb.org/site_details.asp?siteID=181) that started and stopped near the pub (about 2 hours and 15 minutes; it was nice because it was quite varied - fields, Tring Park, bridleways, ridges with views, woods, and a really peaceful stroll along the Grand Union Canal.) They have a couple of rooms for accomodation, though I didn't stay there.

Well worth a visit…read more I had never been to the Greyhound before yesterday, it gave the impression of being under new management. It seems they are working on being more food lead. The menu was not extensive however it was all fairly sophisticated stuff which would have to be freshly prepared. We had the baked camembert to start with and it was superb. Main courses were generous and very capably prepared. The service was spot on and the beers were excellent. For a Monday lunchtime they were busy with diners and they deserve to be as they have clearly put in a great deal of effort.

They also do roast dinners, chicken and pork. Most dishes came with veggies and salad or potatoes. Portions were big. Service was attentive. The venue has a great vibe, and the outside area is lovely in good weather.

The pub used to be so smokey that it was difficult to see upon entering the building, however thankfully as a result of the smoking ban the pub is now a pleasant and welcoming place to relax. Wednesday nights are highly recommended for the pub quiz, which is a little difficult, but great fun! A wide variety of beers are served and the bar is often propped up by friendly locals, knowledgeable about the area.

I come here quite a lot and have had very mixed experiences…read more The food is OK, but the last 2 times I've been they didn't have what I wanted from the menu. I also find it to be overpriced for what it is. The bar area is really comfortable and nicely decorated. The drinks selection is good, and even though it is cheap compared to London it is pricey for the area. My main issue is that I find The Akeman to be quite stuffy and pretentious. They have quite a strict dress code policy at weekends, and we have been turned away a couple of times because someone in our group was wearing trainers or flip flops. On a Friday & Saturday night you would think you were in a bar in the middle of the City with the amount people dress up. I find it all a bit too much for little old Tring.

Had lunch here after visiting The Natural History Museum. It looked welcoming from the outside, and…read moreonce we looked at the menu outside, we went in. Although it was quiet (probably being a weekday lunchtime) my friend and I were greeted promptly and in a friendly manner and taken to a table meant for four, which actually made a nice change to being crammed onto a table for two as it meant we had some elbow room. She took our drink order and talked us through that days specials and the dishes which were unavailable. Our drinks arrived a couple of minutes later where she asked if we were ready to order, we asked for more time, which she did. When we were ready, she was engaging and upbeat and took our orders and highly recommend the sweet potato chips. When our food arrived, it was well presented and was surprisingly more chips than I was expecting (cannot complain about that) with my veggie burger. It wasn't a 'traditional' veggie burger (more layered ingredients in a bun) but it was probably the best burger I have had at any restaurant. My friend had the pork belly and she enjoyed it greatly. The waitress was prompt with any needs but did not hover over us which was good as we didn't feel rushed. Once we had finished, we declined a pudding as we were full from the main course, a good sign of good sized portions. I would highly recommend this restaurant for those having a day out at the museum. Going from previous reviews, they really have improved themselves and hope to have the opportunity to visit again soon.

Attracting mostly locals, perhaps due to its hidden location, the pub serves a fine range of drinks and has a very friendly landlord. Food is also served and portions are large and tasty, if a little more expensive than some other pubs in the area. The inside of the pub is a little small, resembling a living room and on cold nights can get quite crammed, however there is a garden which weather permitting is perfectly pleasant.

However, on my recent trip back home to Berkhamsted, a quick Sunday night trip to this pub really stood out for being great. We headed out for a quick drink after a day travelling from wales and back. we get to the bar and there is a group of regulars sat at the bar so we order some beer on draft and go and take a seat, and play some of the quiz machine (for those interested we won 10 quid on battleships 2 off a 50p investment, a great start to the evening). We decide to grab another beer and this time the bar is a bit clearer, leaving us view to a huge selection of canned craft beers, I was in heaven. The barman was very friendly and tried as best as he could with the beers, was hard as they have no beer menu, so had to pick out beers based on labels. They also have a beer and cider from local breweries brewed especially for them. The cost of the beer is very competitive based on the town. its around 3 pounds for draft and the cans are 4 pounds each. The interior of the pub is nicely decorated and cosy. There is large amounts of seating outside under cover from rain., Outside you are located right on the canal and on summer its common to see people sat on the grass by the canal or on the lock enjoying their drinks. The locals are extremely nice (atleast when we were there), however on Friday/saturday the pub gets very busy and given the smallish bar can take a while to get served. They also have a quiz nights on Thursdays I was told, although sure if that's every Thursday. Definitely worth a visit if your in Berkhamsted.
