I returned to the Reading area on business for the second time in as many months...I wish I'd found this place before. Really lovely room (Rioja) super clean and fresh smelling. A very friendly inn attached, pleasant restaurant with good food & wine. I arrived slightly before the normal opening time but this wasn't a problem and I felt I... More

We live in the next village and have been here plenty of times for snack food and full meals. The food is excellent and good value too as well as the Children's portions being large. They allow dogs to come into the bar section of the pub and the beer Garden is very large so the kid are happy! We... More

Had an excellent Sunday lunch here the Sunday before Christmas 2012. A warm welcome, great food and good choice of wine. The beef was cooked to perfection for our tastes -- medium rare. Would recommend to all. Unable to comment on rooms.

We expected a warm welcome for our Saturday overnight stay in January, but the room we were shown had no heating on at 9.30 pm. And the duvet was no more than a thin coverlet. We did point out the problems and another quilt was brought and free drinks supplied. Meanwhile we had turned on all the radiators. We were... More

We went here for dinner last night. The welcome from the female hostess was friendly. We had a table near the fire than rather than going into the main dining room .... The dining room did look very welcoming though. The menu was on a printed A4 piece of paper and was fuss free. We ordered mushrooms topped with blue... More

We stayed for one night in The Champagne room, because we thought we would treat ourselves to a really nice room. On arrival we had trouble finding someone to open up and receive us. Our room appeared very nice indeed on first sight. However on closer inspection, there was a bulb missing from the lamp and a bulb had gone... More

A late booking meant we were offered a good deal and the welcome was equally warm. We took our little dog who was made very welcome and the room chosen for his needs. The garden outside meant that there was some where for him to run etc. We ate there and I can honestly say that the food was excellent.... More

We stayed here one night so we could meet friends in the area. The pub itself is a wonderful building, a proper country pub not far from Reading. We stayed in the "Chianti" room - which was a very good size room, plenty of room for us to put our travel cot up. The room is just off the garden,... More

Stayed over the May Bank Holiday weekend as I was working in the area. The room I had booked was absolutely tiny and the tv didn't work. After much messing about (involving me standing about whilst 2 people came and messed with the tv for an age) and the claim that the place was fully booked (I didn't see another... More
