Website.

The pub is found in Reading, Berkshire, RG1 1PZ.

Very close to the railway station, was once a Firkin pub, now revamped as a food, wine and ale orientated pub with bare boards, open kitchen and a mix of sofas and tables and chairs. Three real ale pumps which seem to be from M&B's Nicholson's list.

We have visited this pub 5 times, seen 5 different beers and tried 3 of them.
