A town-centre pub dating from around 1828, with two cosy bars entered through the side passage, not the front door. An enhanced range of up to 10 ales is available each weekend. The large walled garden is a popular refuge from the chaos of the town, with patio heaters for colder nights. A wide and interesting selection of music is available on the jukebox.

Card payments only.

Note - Monday hours vary seasonally, open Sundays of bank holiday weekends.

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