   Very disappointed with our visit. Having been recommended this pub/restaurants for the food we were eager to visit. Upon arrival parking was an issue, as there are no real marked our bays and looks like the parking area is shared with the motor homes next door. Had to park on the main road. Walking in was greeted by a tall slim gentleman who was not happy at all to see us. No hello or welcome just handed 2 menu over and walked away. I assumed just pick a table and sit down I guess. Decor is very tired and really needs updating. Table was not cleaned from the last customer clearly. Didn't come to take orders. We went over to the bar to ask if we had to order at bar, for which we were told yes only to see him wonder over to a table of customer who came 20min after us to take an order. Food was average but had the service had been even a little better I would have gone back and recommended to family and friends. I got the feeling we weren't welcome there and it was more for his regular customers. Didn't even smile when we paid and left a tip. The tip was for the chef as food was cooked well and presented well.. if that guy is the owner god help his business in these hard times. If its the staff I do hope the owners consider some basic training.

   Very authentic, fresh and tasty Thai food! My partner has traveled extensively in the far east and I am very fond of Asian cuisine so when we relocated to Reading two years ago one target was to find a good Thai. This was the first time we have been to The Turners Arms and we will be back! We started with the mixed starter for two which is an excellent selection of traditional Thai starters, all very tasty and hard to find any fault. The mains were the Duck special and the Pad Kraphaw, also with duck. Both dishes were mild in terms of heat but very flavoursome, from the freshness of the vegetables and distinct flavours in the dish it is obvious these were cooked fresh to order. Great old pub surroundings and we will look forward to visiting again when the fire is lit as that would perfect the cozy pub atmosphere.

   Great service and even better food! The Thai dishes are full of flavor and make this spot a must-visit. Generous portions, hot and very fresh. Highly recommended!

   The best Thai food I had here in Berkshire. Can’t imagine there’s such a good restaurant in this area. Really lovely.

   Great authentic Thai food cooked by the Thai landlady. The landlord can seem stand-offish but he just has a very dry sense of humour and is a lovely guy. Highly recommended!

   A delicious meal. The mixed starter was generous and the curry one of the best I've had all eaten next to a welcoming open fire. Thank you very much

   Had dinner here recently. The food was excellent, really enjoyed it. Its located in an English pub, The Turners Arms, a little unusual for a Thai restaurant but don't let it put you off it was tasty and good value.
