Cask Ale not available

A small local independently run bar, located in a parade of shops. It is the only pub within the local radius and parish of St Luke's; a legacy of the Palmer (of Huntley & Palmer biscuits) family's ownership and building of large parts of the area. The bar boasts four large TV screens showing sports daily. A good selection of keg beers are available, including MNKY, a Belgian style house lager. 10% discount for NHS and emergency services staff.

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