Church in Reading

“A wonderful wkend away with my partner before lockdown, very relaxing. The hosts were amazing and very hospitable. Large en-suite rooms, each with a different theme. Very clean, bar on site, excellent home made meals and live music in evenings. We will definitely be staying again!! Perfect for romantic getaways or just a change of scenery or that special occasion. Genuinely had a blast.”

“I feel compelled to leave a positive review for the chap called Andy in store. He is the epitome of customer service. Every time I go in, without fail I am greeted with a smile and a 'How are you'. No question is ever too much and he will always go over and beyond to help me. He is a shining example of what you hope to get when going into any retail business and he is an absolute credit to Evapo. Any business would be lucky to have him. With his top tier attitude and work ethic, he exudes such a positive aura that makes you instantly feel at ease. For someone like me who finds it hard to generally speak to people, Andy makes it all really easy. Thank you. Legend.”

“⸻ 5 Stars – A Wonderful Dance School! We’ve had such a positive experience with this dance school over the past three years. It’s a fun, relaxed, and encouraging environment that my daughter absolutely loves. Catherine and her team are fantastic with the kids – supportive, patient, and full of energy. Since joining, my daughter’s confidence has grown so much. It’s also been a great way for her to stay active with regular weekly exercise. The classes are very affordable, and the uniform is reasonably priced too, which is a big plus for parents. Overall, it’s been an amazing experience for our family – we couldn’t recommend it more. 10/10!”

“Thank you very much Franco and his team for helping me set up a surprise birthday meal at the weekend. It was easy to organise with the deposit, pre ordering the food and they help set up all the decorations for me. The food was brilliant and served in a timely manner. Great service. Thank you :)”

“Brilliant shop. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Good atmosphere. I don't know if they still do it, but you used to be able to buy a bag of floating bird feed to take down to the river nearby, sold in a paper bag for a £1. I highly recommend Homecrafts in Caversham. ***EDIT*** It's still a brilliant shop. Floating bird food is now £2.50 in a paper bag to go feed the river or pond birds. You can buy a sack for £8. There's a good selection of bird food towards the back of the store or in plastic buckets inside the store, towards the front. There was a cheerful, helpful chap serving today (Thursday) in the shop. I had a little wander about while I was in there. It's such a great shop. There are so many useful products.”

“This is a super clean and tidy store staff are helpfull and fully good cooking in restaurant and nothing to much trouble very impressive by all staff concerned”

“Fantastic food and service. We came here for dinner and we were not disappointed! All the meat was cooked beautifully and had so much flavour. The falafel was home made and the salad was fresh.”

“A lovely coffee shop, staff always friendly and a welcoming atmosphere. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys a high quality coffee experience with a friendly, personal touch.”

“Popped in today on the of chance of Maggots on a Sunday. A wonderful shop a staff knowledgeable and happy to talk Nd advise on venues. Recommended highly.”

“My go to for vapes everytime. The store is always tidy and clean and the range of products is amazing. Chelsea is a wonderful manager and always goes above and beyond to help me and my wife every time, she is the nicest most friendly member of staff by far, she's an asset to the vape store!!”

“Becky is such a talented stylist. We had a consultation the day before she put my hair up for a special event. She made loads of suggestions based on my hair type and face shape and helped me decide on the style I wanted. She asked lots of questions throughout to make sure the finished look was exactly what I wanted. My hair looks amazing. So beautiful. Better than my wedding day! Thanks Becky”

“This is a great place to visit in Caversham to relax and learn about the regions history Caversham Court Gardens is located in Caversham, UK directly north across the bridge from Reading on the north side of the River Thames. It is a delightful gem that seamlessly combines history, natural beauty, and tranquility. This riverside oasis offers a serene escape from the bustle of urban life, making it a perfect spot for a leisurely stroll, a picnic, some quiet contemplation, or to learn some history about the area.The gardens are steeped in history, with their origins dating back to the 12th century. The site was once the location of a medieval manor, and remnants of the Tudor-era house still stand, adding an air of historical charm to the surroundings. It is a picturesque setting that provides breathtaking views of the river and the lush greenery on its banks. The well-maintained lawns and flowerbeds are a testament to the care put into preserving this natural haven. Visitors will also appreciate the diverse plantings, including colorful flowers and mature trees, creating a serene atmosphere. The peacefulness of the gardens is enhanced by the soothing sound of the river flowing gently by. There is a small building that serves as a tea shop and is manned by volunteers. With its historical significance, riverside location, and well-tended grounds, Caversham Court Gardens offers a delightful escape for those seeking a peaceful connection with nature and a taste of local history. It's a place where the past and present harmoniously converge in a setting that invites reflection and relaxation.”

“Decent sushi. Would order again.”

“Excellent Chef table experience. It is not only food and drink. Gettign to talk to the staff was an amazing experience. The food was delicious. I opted for a diary and meat free menu. Every dish was amazing. Every bite was full of flavour. In terms of drinks, I normally only drink water with lunch. This time, I went for the mocktail pairing. I loved all of them, sugar free, creative and full of new flavours.”

“A very interesting survival which has been repurposed as a conference and wedding venue which seems to be working very well as a means to preserve the fabric of the building. As is often the case which this type of building where local government has heroically stepped in to preserve a valuable piece of built heritage, the original contents are long gone and the interior reflects the history of varied uses but there it's lots to see here in terms of the interesting historical fabric and the exterior is spectacular. Thumbs up for the quite long opening season too - English Heritage could take note with some of their winter closing times. There is reconstruction work going on outside to recreate some formal garden features and there are modern visitor facilities. Also good exhibition space on the first floor - one of the English Civil War era battles of Newbury took place here more or less in the front garden and you can read all about that aspect of the history along with seeing some artefacts, weapons, armour and other items. I the day we visited, the Sealed Knot were having an event day and this featured social and civilian living History (including musical and dance) as well as drill and musketry demonstration ( and the Scottish armies of the Wars of the three Kingdoms were in attendance too, not just the English), so that adds to the experience if you attend on an event day. I think they are regularly in attendance. Pop into town if you have the chance - Newbury is well worth strolling around the canal and seeing the museum - an easy trip from West London.”

“went with my friend who lives nearby. we were looking for a nicel local spot for some lunch and this was a perfect find. had the flat white and the reuben toastie, both excellent. the kitchen had technically closed but they made my toastie anyway which was very lovely.”

“If you're thinking of getting something pierced or want a tattoo, go here. After getting three piercings done (as someone who's nervous), the service is lovely and welcoming before, during and after piercing. The prices are fair for what you get and they're always pierced in a sanitary environment. This place is just great.”

“I cannot praise Ryslip enough for their exceptional service in shipping my dog from the UK to Hawaii—a complex move with stringent Hawaii requirements. Out of 20 transport companies I quoted, Ryslip responded the fastest with the best price. Natalia was the driving force behind it all, a true rock star with her expertise, clear communication, genuine care, and unwavering support. Their service blew me away, making this potentially stressful move completely seamless. I wholeheartedly recommend Ryslip to anyone needing pet transportation, especially to military families stationed in or moving to the UK. Outstanding job from start to finish!!”

“13 of us had Christmas lunch in early December. No words can describe it. Brilliant, fantastic. The food was hot, perfectly cooked. The service was exceptional.”

“Every single member of Black Tie are so helpful and welcoming. They will always have something for you, and the service you receive is amazing. They're all so knowledgeable and helpful and I couldn't recommend them enough. Not only did I use Black Tie this year for my wedding suits which were amazing, I have on numerous occasions dropped in the day before some events and they have always gone out of their way to help me. Would HIGHLY recommend anyone to use Black Tie, a professional experience with great service.”

“Everyone has been so kind and has gone above and beyond. You really feel that they care about both you and your pet, which has been so much appreciated through some difficult times recently.”

“Great club with cheaper beer than in most pubs. Lots of things going on including billiards snooker,darts and three large TV screens to view sports.”

“I have been a satisfied customer of Fleet Taxis for 15 years; they have never missed a pickup and when you use them to and from the airport, as I do, this is very reassuring. They are also very nice guys, and the rides are always pleasant. A 5-star recommendation is well deserved. Anders Rehnberg”
