Inside, you might still find hints of its history, with some original features like a charming fireplace possibly remaining from its inter-war construction.

Lovely little Sports Bar / Entertainment spot in the centre of Reading.

They had a good amount of bar staff on meaning there was never a wait for a drink, which is refreshing on a Saturday night.

We had the karaoke room booked for an hour and whilst they were running late they kept us informed.

The booth was lovely, private and easy to use.

No doubt we’ll be back, if I can get over £6.60 a pint!

I didn't have any food here so I can't rate that but Simon and Amy run a very good pub and with Guinness at £5:05 a pint it's no wonder that I keep going back 👍😁👍😁
