"This place must be one of the hidden gems of Wantage. This is one of the best full English breakfast we have ever had, everything tasted so delicious: homemade hashbrowns, eggs like the morning sun, crispy bacon, fried Mushrooms. Absolutely delicuous toast with grilled salmon.. smashed avocado. Great coffe and green tea (especially japanese tea). The owners always very friendly and made to feel very welcome suitable for everyone."

"This was my first time at this restaurant, and I had been wanting to try it for a while. However, I was shocked by the new management and owner. I was surprised to see the owner walking around without shoes, especially in a restaurant setting. When we arrived, we were seated at a table that had not been set up yet. It took 10 minutes for our drink order to be taken - just two cokes and an orange juice. It took another 15 minutes for our drinks to arrive. After our drinks came, I placed our food order - two beef roasts and a bowl of chips, as they did not have a children's menu. We waited patiently for over 35 minutes for our food, and when we asked how much longer it would be, we were told it was on its way. After waiting for 50 minutes in total, we decided to pay for our drinks and leave. It seemed like the new owners were inexperienced, and the staff seemed too old to handle the job - they couldn't even bend down to pick something up off the floor. No apologies were offered for the long wait. Overall, I will not be returning to this restaurant. In the end, we ended up at McDonald's instead."

"We came to the volunteer 2 weeks ago we had an amazing Lunch -meat platter. We had our temperature checked our names taken so felt very safe. We returned yesterday to get a meat platter again but unfortunately it was a disaster, a different member of staff to our previous time! We had no temperature checked, no name taken, and was just told to walk straight in after waiting at the entrance door for 5 minutes where we was following instruction not to enter until we was seen! Instead someone inside told the bar lady we was waiting and she just told us to come in! no soap in the toilet even after asking for soap to be provided, still none put there before we left. The meat platter was nothing like what we had 2 weeks ago, complete different dish and was told it was an error on the menu although we ate there 2 weeks previously and had an amazing meat platter so they lied. Absolutely awful tbh and will never return which is a shame as we recommended to all our friends after our first time."

"From the moment we arrived at the car park to the gardens and then into the restaurant itself, every detail had been carefully thought out. Even the toilet paper was neatly folded. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted warmly. Our table was secluded but not isolated, and the drinks were served quickly by friendly and knowledgeable staff. We opted for the affordable set menu, which included a choice of starter, main, and dessert. The presentation of the food was stunning, and the taste did not disappoint. The rhubarb bavarois was particularly delicious and worth the price. Despite having dined at Raymond Blanc's Le Manoir, we found the food and overall experience at the Greyhound to be more enjoyable. We have already been recommending this restaurant to others and will most definitely be returning soon."

"This is a lovely café tucked away a little, approximately behind the Post Office Vaults. It is immaculately clean and new-feeling, although it is very popular, so clearly they are established here. The coffee is fab and the prawn mayo and avocado sandwich I had was delicious. The cheese, onion and tomato toastie my friend had was also very nice. The service was efficient and friendly. Also what a refreshing change it is to see dogs being allowed back into some cafés, such as this one. We will definitely be back when we visit Wantage again."
