Operator: Craft Union Pub Co (Stonegate)
111 School Road, Tilehurst, RG31 5BG (View on Google Map)

A large and well-positioned pub that has suffered from poor stewardship in the past which lost the 'of Wales' affectation to it's name after a 2016 revamp. Now billed as a 'Craft Union Free House', the pub sign seems to depict Prince Albert now! It was refurbished again in 2023 at a cost of £400k and both closed and reopened in the winter of that year. There's a comfortable ambience to be enjoyed, both inside and in the gardens where new furniture (tables, benches etc.) has been installed throughout.
