The Grumpy Goat
Bar
👍👍 This shop is located in the alley (Smelly alley) of Reading town centre. At night, on the month of December, there are Christmas lights that brighten the alley. The shop is catchy as it has a unique colour of dark green paint outside. They have delicious grilled sandwiches and I also love their hot...

The Cocktail Club
Cocktail bar
😠 Really disappointed with how the staff dealt with my friend being forced off of a bar stool by an aggressive man. Because I originally said he’d pushed my friend off the stool when in fact he wasn’t strong enough to push, he’d pulled/yanked it, the staff said I was equally as wrong for pushing the g...

Milk is one of the last bastions of Reading’s independent bar scene, specialising in rum & rum based cocktails, but using their excellent knowledge of both cocktails & spiri...

The Collective Caversham

👍👍 Started the morning with a really good cappuccino and an amazing Almond Croissant that was still warm when I bought it, then spent an hour inside Caversham Bridge before returning for an iced coffee and a Cruffin, which were also both really good. I would definitely recommend this place and will be...

Crucible Sports & Social Club, Reading
Pool hall
👍 Good food. Lots of tables for both pool and snooker. Good ambience and full of people having a good time. Has only 1 American pool though. Sometimes the pool tables where you insert coins or tap to pay are broken.
