The Greyhound: Pub in Peckham, London

The Greyhound is a food venue that runs a lot more than dinner. Pub quizzes sit alongside live music in the lounge, and the weekends lean towards jazz and acoustic sets. Then there are the club nights, tech house and minimal, which draw a crowd that came to dance. That range is the appeal. You can come for a meal and a set and feel at home, or stay on for a later night when the room turns over to the dancefloor. The regulars tend to be local, and the mood stays easy whichever night you pick. It helps to think about what you want before you go. A quiz suits a table with opinions. A live set suits someone who likes to be close to the music. The club nights suit anyone who wants the room loud.
