Fantastic pub. Lots of pumps full of local real ale. Wall decked out in coasters. Cute little booths and some stained glass. Rock and metal music playing. Wonderful.
Great selection of ales, well some of the, err more creative ones can be a bit hit or mis. But you'll never know until you try them. For me, that's half the fun, and sometimes you will find an absolute blinder (in both interpretations of the word) it's a very chill place and great outside in the sun.
It's a Classic British pub, staff are friendly and inviting, there's a wide selection of beers. The listed building is small so if it's busy seating may become scarce but its charm means you should still give it a try anyway.
This place for legends. Not for faint hatred. The last time I was there, the count of different kind of Ales served till date was 10K+. People have permanent beer mugs here. If I could, I would prefer go here for most of the time and would have a beer mug on my name too.
This pub is small and cosy, nestled along the bustling high street and embellished with beer pump clips adorning its walls and ceilings. A few cozy chambers are tucked away down the corridor behind.
Proper old Alehouse serving up a multitude of beers. Quirky old world interior. What's not to like? Ok so the majority of the punters are middle aged men. But its all about the banter and enjoying a mobile phone free space!
Pump clips line the walls and ceiling providing a look into the recent history of the ales that have been poured at the pub. The soundtrack here is always eclectic as are the clientele. A much needed pub that provides respite from the monotony of the high street. A must visit when in town especially if you're a fan of cask beer as the selection changes frequently
An ickle pub with big beer selection. Less of the more modern beers and more of the traditional British styles, but they do have a variety including a few weird and wonderfuls. Great place to sit in the sun and people watch out front or sit in one of the atmospheric little nooks.
Just great. I was looking for a traditional English pub in Reading and The Alehouse seemed like the best option. And so it is! People were so nice, everyone, from the staff to the clients. I went by my own, and at the second that I entered in the pub I met some of the frequent clients! Just perfect guys, they invited me to a couple pints and we were chatting the whole afternoon until I had to go. And also, you can go there to drink at any time, there will always be people! Good ales and good prices, with a perfect ambient and decoration. I wish I could return. If I come back to Reading, The Alehouse will be one of the first places to go back to.
