The Flowing Spring, Playhatch

The last time I went was back in the late 90's and the old geezer behind the bar (Brian?) was a great bloke. Very friendly and the beer was fantastic. I used to pop in there several times a week and enjoy a pint of Fuller's London cream ale. I haven't seen the stuff recently so I can only assume that they've finished that line. Shame. The Flowing Spring then was a great pub.

The Fishermans Cottage, Reading

A friend recommended the place to me so we went and had a nice pint of ESB. In the main I enjoyed my visit. I thought the pub had nice decor and I liked how it was situated right on the river. The only downside was I felt like I was in a showroom of a conservatory company.

Baron Cadogan, Caversham

It's a good pub to go to and especially with their 2 for �5 meal deals. The waiting times for grub can be a bit lengthy and the bar staff aren't exactly chatty but all in all it's okay. There is often a laddish element present so bear that in mind. Could do far worse than starting out here before going somewhere else or for just having a beer and a cheap lunch.
