Visited on a Sunday just before 2pm and the pub looked very empty and lifeless. The pub was closing at 4pm for a private function (relevant?). After serving our drinks we were told "There's no food". This despite the fact that it was within their posted food time. "how about a sandwich?". We were refused even that. We thought the service was cold and unfriendly. We will not be back. Pity because the Brakspears bitter was good.

Good beer, good honest pub food, and a special offer of Irish stew free with your first pint of Guinness on St Patrick's Day. The place was almost empty at 7.15pm on a Saturday night (!!!) I can't think why as the staff are friendly and helpful, and the food prices are very reasonable. We were the only ones having a meal, though several regulars arrived in the bar in the time we were there, including one man bringing in chicken, goose and turkey eggs which are for sale in the pub. A very pleasant evening.

Lovely Local Pub in a beautiful setting. Brakspears Bitter about £2.60 I believe. A range of other beer and lagers, including Stella Artois £2.90 a pint. Lovely big garden, Childrens play area. Incredibly cheap food. Excellent Beef baguette £3.10. Main meals from about £4.50. Sunday Lunch £6.95. Car Park. Accesible by public transport, 142 bus from Pangbourne or Reading. Popular with Walkers and Cyclists. Food served from 12 noon till 3pm, and evefry evening apart from Sunday and Wednesday 6.30pm till 9pm. Lovely for pub lunch or a summer evening. Locals quite friendly.
