Great local pub selling real ales, lagers and cider, what could be better!
Recently named the best real ale pub in Reading by Reading and Mid Berkshire CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale). They also recently won the Best Traditional Pub for West Reading at the Reading Pubwatch Awards.

A freindly atmosphere and a huge range of real ales - 12 at a time along with a good choice of wine (although I can't rate that as I stick the the beer) are the real attractions here. It's a good place to go for a relaxed evening chatting with freinds, a quiet game of crib, a noisy game of darts or just a quick half.

They also do a meals for £6 between 5 and 7pm, there's not really much choice but they're definately filling. Friday night is often 'pie night' where they serve up pies from Sweeny and Todd, another Reading institution.
