About

The Italian Greyhound proudly preserves a 400‑year‑old Grade II listed pub that has served Great Glen and beyond for centuries. Inside, the historic timber‑panelled rooms echo the era of stagecoach inns, while a modern kitchen prepares authentic Italian dishes that cater to both casual diners and guests seeking private celebrations. A private dining room offers an intimate setting for meetings or family gatherings, and a sunny garden terrace with a large marquee is perfect for outdoor meals or special events. The venue welcomes dogs, making it a favourite spot for pet owners, and the friendly staff ensure that families, couples, and food lovers alike enjoy a relaxed, hospitable atmosphere.
