It would be odd for a pub called ‘The Greyhound’ to not allow dogs.

Luckily, this one lives up to its name. A family run-pub with a 4/5 rating on TripAdvisor, it’s frequented by TV star and Oldham legend Kevin Fletcher.

Located on Holden Fold Lane, reviewer sharona14 said: “Had amazing time here, nothing is too much trouble, Patrick and Tracey look after you, the team they have is second to none. Can't wait to come back again. Well done.”
