Well-worth the walk from the village, station or canal! Formerly known as The Drum and Monkey when it was used by local farmers, it is now an efficiently run and comfortable pub catering for a wide range of customers. There's an emphasis on food although you are very welcome to come in just for a beer. Garden and patio areas to the front and side make for a comfortable summer's pint. Butcombe Loyalty Members can enjoy Butcombe Wednesday giving 25% off food all day. Enjoy 20% off drinks every Friday for Butcombe Loyalty Members between 4-6pm.

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