Cafe in Reading

“Thank you, Zoe ❤️ you are brilliant, here is a ChatGpt poem in your honour: --- Zoe, the Bartender Behind the bar where the lights are low, Lives laughter poured by a girl named Zoe. With bottles lined like painted glass, She stirs up stories as the moments pass. Her hands know rhythm — shake and spin, A dance of spirit, lime, and gin. She listens close, a gentle ear, For every tale that drifts too near. The lonely find her easy smile, Worth the wait, the extra mile. A poet’s heart, in tonic’s fizz, She crafts small worlds from nights like this. And when the crowd begins to fade, The chairs are up, the tabs are paid, She wipes the counter, hums a tune — A quiet queen beneath the moon.”

“If you’re looking for a pub that gives you more than just the normal 5 pints on draught then this is the place you’re after. A proper little gem of a place, will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend.”

“Wow, what an amazing pub. I came here on a Sunday for a roast and a pizza for my friend. The staff are so friendly and the pub is large with loads of seating. There's a great menu, which includes a roast served every day of the week. The roast was delicious with loads of perfectly cooked veg and roast potatoes to die for! Pizza was also delicious and tasted homemade. The prices are brilliant, especially considering the quality of the food.”

“Lovely cozy boozer, tucked away off the beaten track. Character interior with a great garden and outdoor seating. Dog friendly”

“New management so no food yet, but a lovely country pub with a great pint and lovely surroundings.”

“Went to watch the six nations rugby with friends. It’s been years since I’ve visited this pub. Have to say , I was hugely impressed. It was very busy but had a really nice buzz and atmosphere. Especially good was the service. Never had to wait more than 30 secs to get served. Very friendly and efficient staff. Had a good conversation with the owner (that also has the Victoria pub in Tilehurst) who said the pub is being refurbed soon. Look forward to visiting again”

“A gorgeous traditional ‘old world’ pub. The building is so charming, it must be 200 years old. The menu is very interesting, with Spanish tapas and fresh paella, as well as high quality wood fired pizzas and of course all the pub classics. The garden out the back is absolutely darling and catches the afternoon sun perfectly.”

“Dinner after a day at the Henley Regatta. Hadn't booked and pubs were rammed full. This was an oasis of calm with lovely food and perfect service. Thank you”

“Best burger i have ever eaten! I was there a bit early in the evening, wasn't packed. Beautifully decorated for Christmas. I would easily recommend this place.”

“We came here on a very dull and rainy afternoon for lunch and it was still rather busy, so assume it is a locals favourite. Service was with a friendly smile and was swift and efficient. Some excellent choices of drinks as well as food, something for everyone, the half hungry or starving! Decent non alcoholic drinks / beers for the drivers of this world which was nice! Opted for the fresh plaice and deer steak both succulent and perfectly cooked and proportions were perfect. Prices on par with others in the area, all very clean and spacious, there are a lot of decent eateries in Henley but this one is in definitely in the top half.”

“We recently visited with a group of residents from our local care home, based on the glowing recommendation of one of our residents who often comes here with her family, and what an excellent recommendation it was! From the moment we arrived, the staff couldn’t have been more welcoming or accommodating. They were attentive throughout our visit and kept us informed about when our meals would be served. The food was absolutely fantastic, fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. Nothing was too much trouble, and the whole experience was seamless from start to finish. This will definitely become a regular lunch spot for us. Highly recommended!”

“A nice local pub. 5 of us ate here for Mother’s Day lunch. Fantastic value for money. Great service by Mark and his team. Thoroughly recommend this pub for a drink or food at very reasonable prices.”

“My family recently visited Atmosphere Trampoline Park in Basingstoke, and it was an absolute blast! The kids had an amazing time bouncing and playing, while the staff provided excellent service and a memorable experience. Although there were some minor drawbacks, such as limited parking space and a somewhat small and narrow layout, the overall experience was fantastic. I will definitely be returning to Atmosphere Trampoline Park for more fun-filled adventures. The main highlight of our visit to Atmosphere Trampoline Park was undoubtedly the sheer joy and excitement my kids experienced. The park offers a wide range of trampolines, obstacle courses, and other activities that kept them entertained for hours. They had a blast jumping, flipping, and testing their agility. The park's facilities were well-maintained and clean, ensuring a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone. The service at Atmosphere Trampoline Park was top-notch. The staff members were friendly, attentive, and always ready to assist. They were particularly great with the kids, ensuring their safety while encouraging their energy and enthusiasm. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and ensured that we had everything we needed for an enjoyable visit. Their dedication and professionalism were evident throughout our time at the park. Additionally, Atmosphere Trampoline Park offered a variety of food options that were surprisingly delicious. After working up an appetite, we indulged in some tasty snacks and refreshing beverages from the onsite cafe. The menu had a good variety of choices, catering to different tastes and dietary preferences. It was a convenient and satisfying way to refuel during our visit. However, there were a couple of minor issues worth mentioning. The parking space at the park was limited, and finding a spot during busy times could be challenging. It's something to keep in mind and plan ahead for, as it can be a bit frustrating. Additionally, the layout of the park felt somewhat small and narrow, especially when it was crowded. It may have been better to have a more spacious design to accommodate the number of visitors. Despite these minor drawbacks, our overall experience at Atmosphere Trampoline Park was fantastic. The kids had an absolute blast, and the excellent service provided by the staff made our visit even more enjoyable. The great food options at the onsite cafe were a pleasant surprise. While the parking situation and the layout could be improved, they didn't significantly impact our overall enjoyment. I am excited to return to Atmosphere Trampoline Park in the future for more family fun. The fantastic service, exciting activities, and delicious food make it a great destination for kids and adults alike. Despite the minor drawbacks, the positive aspects of our visit far outweighed any inconveniences. I highly recommend this park to anyone seeking a thrilling and memorable experience. In conclusion, Atmosphere Trampoline Park in Basingstoke offers an amazing experience for families. The fun-filled activities, great service, and delicious food make it a top choice for a day of excitement. While the limited parking space and somewhat small layout can be a minor inconvenience, they do not diminish the overall enjoyment of the park. I am eagerly looking forward to my next visit to Atmosphere Trampoline Park for more unforgettable adventures with my family.”

“I’ve been coming to The Bridge in Bracknell regularly and it never disappoints. The food is excellent, with generous portions and good quality ingredients. They also run daily food deals, which makes it really good value for money. It’s not just a place for a meal or a pint – it’s also a great spot to work from during the day. The broadband is fast and reliable, and the atmosphere is relaxed but friendly, so it works really well if you need a change of scene from home. Whether you’re after a good lunch, an evening bite with friends, or a quiet place to work with strong Wi-Fi, The Bridge is spot on. Highly recommended.”

Whether you're there for a chat or some solitude, the place truly stands out for its warmth and quality offerings.”
