Fullers pub on the main drag through Binfield. This was the busiest of the 9 pubs we tried today, with all tables taken in the cosy interior and all also taken on the outdoor patio where a jazz band was performing and there was also a barbecue. The garden also featured a large proportion of dogs and children. ESB, London Pride, HSB & Discovery were the 4 ales on offer. A pleasant pub. But without the variety of ales stocked by the superior Jack o'Newbury down the road.

This pub has always been good with an excellent, well-kept range of Fullers ales. However, last Sunday we went there for Sunday lunch and although the beers and service were as good as always, the meal itself was very disappointing.

It was much smaller than the Sunday roasts we've been used to during previous visits (only 2 roast potatoes and a Yorkshire Pudding half the size of what they used to serve up!). All of our party commented on how the portions had got a lot smaller and for £8.95 each we felt that this represented pretty bad value for money.
Whilst we were eating we had Formula One racing coming from one side of the pub and Rugby commentary coming from the other. ( I'm afraid that this pub has not escaped the general obsession with TV everywhere nowadays).

All in all a very disappointing Sunday pub lunch - completely different to what we've been used to. Hopefully this was just an "off" day and we'll find out next visit more satisfying.

After consulting BITE for a lunchtime stop-off on a trip down the M4, the Victoria Arms fitted the bill. We weren't disappointed - good pint of London Pride and good sandwiches. Large beer garden, which was great for spending some time in the early spring sun. Overall, a high quality pub, but not necessarily one I would make a special trip to unless I happened to be in the area (although I recognise this is partly to do with the fact that, for me, Fullers pubs are a common occurrence in London).

A trip back today confirms the review below - excellent pub.

A cracking Fuller's pub which gets a lot plaudits and rightly so on the basis of my recent visit. Discovery, Pride ESB, HSB on the bar which were in good form with a friendly girl behind the bar too, which always helps. The place was busy on a Tuesday late afternoon, which says something! Make sure you visit the wonderful garden and patio area with good views which is a must in the summer. Other features include a TV with the sport on and food is available. Downside is perhaps that the beer is a bit expensive, though it usually is in Fuller's branded places - at least the quality here is spot-on. I'll be back sooner rather than later and would recommend it, alongside a trip up the road to the Jack o' Newbury.
