The Gig House, Wokingham

By day it's quite quiet and fine for a bite to eat or a quick drink. The food is inexpensive, not spectacular but generally good enough. I have however been served by staff who did not know how to pour a pint of Guinness.

On Friday/Saturday nights it's a pitcher-fuelled sticky-floored sausage-fest. If you're looking for a quiet civilised drink then avoid it at peak times. But if you want to get smashed for cheap with all your mates then it's right up your street

The Hook and Tackle, Reading

Slightly rundown, very "local" pub approached through one of those underpasses you wouldn't like to walk through alone. Sticky tables, bad wine, not particularly warm welcome.
