Now a gay pub but very friendly to non-gays. No real ale.

Was in the Malthouse last night for the first time. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The beer was a resonable price and they had fairly good selection of drinks.

The decor was ok, I liked the fact that it was a gay pub without attitude and had a nice mixed crowd. The quiz machine is good too, if not a tad addictive!

I'll definately go back and hope that it keeps going.

I am bitterly dissapointed in the state the Malthouse is in now. Staff are friendly and welcoming as ever, in particular the assistant manager. HOWEVER the landlord continues to leave the inexperienced bartenders to fend for themselves on busy nights, a problem which causes long waiting times for service. In addition to this,the refurbisment that is in progress and the fact the landlords dog roams freely (whilst food is being searved) after biting TWO customers already makes me wary to return.

On a more positive note, the selection of cocktails is good, as is the selection of beers.

Not a bad place, staff are friendly and welcoming, larger selection is good, and price is not at all bad for a gay venue in Reading.

Have been back here again recently, what a mess the landlord is making of the place, there was no draught beer the other night, just bottled, you have to wait for 10-15 minutes to get served, longer when its busy. At 9pm on a friday, they had one member of bar-staff, everyone was waiting and waiting, the landlord swanned in and swanned upstairs leaving him to it. The landlord is bloody useless, and a lazy fat bastard to boot, I give the Malthouse 6 months before its gone
