| Nice boozer - shame the outside is right on Queen's road - but inside beer is good a decent atmosphere and reasonable pub grub. thefatsausage - 17 Oct 2008 00:57 |
| A fiendish 2-door snare at the entrance may be a cunning plan to ensure that those who have already had too much ale fail to make it inside. Luckily this was only the 2nd pub of the day so, only a few short minutes after arrival, our party of 3 safely reached the bar! Five handpumps sadly did not include Tribute, but did offer decent Landlord & Brakspear, also Old Hooky plus another couple (unrecorded). Nice open light wood feel to the place, quiet & no music ystdy 13:00 beerPrincess. Papers available on a stand nr bar. trainman - 23 Mar 2008 14:50 |
| Seem to do well here, the beers I have are always excellent. Five ales with a decent range, though usually one can expect to find St Austell Tribute, something from Hampshire and a Hooky brew. Aimed at a younger, more upwardly mobile drinker, there's a nice chilled atmosphere inside most evenings. There's food available (not tried any yet, the lure of Perry's Caribbean canteen is too strong most evenings) along with a quizzer that's yet to give in to my advances. Inside is clean and has a nice rustic edge. The chaps who run this have recently taken over the Moderation in Caversham. If they can get that old dump half as good as this, they’ll do well. Very good place, one of my Reading favourites and I visit regularly. A great place to take non-ale drinking friends or a lady you want to impress whilst not compromising on the ale front.

| Good beer, good atmosphere, but dreadful, DREADFUL music. It was so intrusive, and such a bad choice, that it really took the edge of what has become (again) a fab boozer. beerPrincess - 30 Jul 2007 10:09 |
| Visited earlier this week and was really impressed. Five ales on (and the four I tried were in excellent condition) which were a fairly mixed bunch, from the obvious (Greedy King Abbot) to the more left-field (Rebellion and St Austell's). Pub had a clean interior, friendly punters and a good atmosphere. I rated this higher than the Retreat, for an ale drinker that's quite something given the hype surrounding the Retreat. Will definitely be back very soon. Quinno - 1 Jun 2007 17:37 |
