| Visited Gospoda on Saturday for a change of scenery: Not the smartest part of town, nor the greatest looking building...BUT the friendliness & quality f service / food was a lesson to many of our other so-called gastro pubs. Don't expect anything fancy, but do expect a good hefty serving of filling, tasty food, Also be prepared to wait, because little if anything goes near a microwave. Thumbs up for what it is; not my kind of pub, but faultless in their service approach and food standards. (IMO). EmuHead - 17 Mar 2008 19:13 |
| You wouldn't recognise it from it days as the Battle - completely reformed interior, very nice. Polish TV and music, with Polish food available. A little disappointed with the beer range though - it's all the same Polish fizzy pop you can buy in Weatherspoons. Was expecting something a little more unusual to be offered, really. Worth trying once or twice. Quinno - 14 Mar 2008 12:00 |
| Okay, now visited. Bit of a threatening start - all windows closed and doors shut. But once in, greeted by a wall of warmth and pleasant modern decor (all polished wooden floors and shiny fixtures). Staff and other drinkers (mostly Polish) very nice and accommodating, even though we couldn't pronounce any of the items on the menu. Food fresh, hearty and tasty. At least one Polish beer on draught and lots of bottles of various Polish beers in the fridges. Wide selection of more common British beers (stella etc) and spirits. Was expecting lots of different Polish vodkas but only spotted Wyborowksa. Basically yeah we had a good night :) minitruth - 19 Feb 2008 20:25 |
| This is what used to be the Battle, which closed, and is now apparently being transformed into a Polish bar. Gospoda means 'restaurant'. Quite eagerly awaited actually - if they get it right then they'll make a packet, both from West Reading's sizeable Polish community and the native Brits (Reading's got quite a varied collection of drinking spots and the locals seem to like diversity in their watering holes). minitruth - 27 Jan 2008 18:04 |
