The Greyhound was a smallish pub very near [[Oval Station]]. It has now closed and been replaced by the Brown Derby <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/9374021021/ photo]</small>. The information below is retained for historical purposes. <div class="old_info"> Smallish pub very near [[Oval Station]], located on the corner of Kennington Park Road and Elias Place. The decor is pretty tatty and it's nothing particularly special, but there's nothing really awful about it either. [[Kake]], [[bob]], [[ilmari]], and [[secretlondon]] visited on a Friday evening in August 2008. Although it was shortly after close of play at the nearby [[Brit Oval]], we had no trouble finding seats inside, as most people were drinking outside (and there were fewer of them than at the Hanover Arms a few doors up, where outside drinkers were spilling all over the road). They have a few handpumps, but the only one active on our visit had Bombardier. Oddly, some of us were charged £3/pint for this and others were charged £3.30/pint; this may have been because they were charging a "cricket surcharge" and some of us look more like cricket fans than others, or it may have been a succession of mistakes. Don't know whether they do food. As of August 2011, there is a lively Irish/bluegrass session on Sunday evenings, which starts at around 9:30pm and usually ends in a lock-in until 3-4am. Accessibility: one or two steps up to get in (depending on which entrance you use), and toilets are down a flight of stairs.
