Wetherspoon pub.

This re-opened in 2011 with its original name as a Wetherspoon's pub following extensive refurbishment and side extension added, after having been closed in 2006. This rapidly became a popular town centre venue attracting a wide range of customers.

The layout of the pub forms an L-shape, with the overall interior being deceptively large but divided into various areas. The single long wooden bar has wooden flooring, with service only available in the front part. There is a small front area by the main entrance and a long partitioned side area running parallel to the bar. This leads into a larger room at the back with a fireplace and a mix of high and low seating. Carpeted throughout at the rear, this leads into another partitioned area at the back with floor-to-ceiling windows (and back entrance into Walters Yard) and a long room leading off to the left. Both areas are more geared up for dining with the kitchen adjacent. The smart décor has a mix of wooden panelling and half-panelling with white and gold coloured walls and ceilings, complete with architrave, along with framed prints displaying local history connections. A bronze model of a greyhound sits above the glass return hatch. The back entrance is handy for Sainsbury's.

There is a small enclosed area out front on the High Street for smoking, complete with tables and chairs.

The upper terrace for outside drinking is reached via a long flight of steps at the end of the long dining area. This consists of a variety of tables and chairs, some under cover, with an unrivalled view over the Sainsbury's car park. When open, this is obliged to close at 9 pm.

(Prior to 2006, this was called the "Townhouse" and also served as a Pizza Hut in the 1980s)

Historic Interest

Refer to the following for full details about the pub's history and also about the locality: https://www.jdwetherspoon.com/pub-histories/the-greyhound-bromley/ Plaque outside reads: "This building is the second Greyhound public house on this site. Its predecessor was a three-storey Georgian-style property, built around 1797. The Greyhound stands on the High Street section once occupied by The Grete (or Great) House. It was first recorded in 1532, when owned by the London brewer Thomas Knight, and it was not demolished until 1868." The replaced building became the Greyhound hotel and was rebuilt after bomb damage during the Second World War. The new building was then set back from the High Street and owned by Whitbread. Walters Yard, at the rear and which was once part of the Grete House estate, was named after the local smithy which once existed there. Part of this was used to temporarily house French prisoners during the Napoleonic Wars from 1797 to 1815, and was known as Prison Yard.
