Improve This Listing

With the wide range of real ales (12), cider and perry (13) always on offer, visitors can be sure to find something to their tastes here. There is also a craft beer wall ((14 taps), with vessel and dispense type clearly indicated on the adjacent blackboard. A selection of board games are available for those wanting to while away a few sociable hours. The pub gets very busy on Reading FC match days. Dedication to quality has seen them regularly make an impact in the CAMRA national Pub of the Year competition. Basic hot food (toasties, sausage rolls, BBQ pork or beef rolls) available.

Information for this venue is provided by the Reading & Mid-Berks Branch of CAMRA
