The 30 Best Food establishment in Reading

“Nice place for materials such as paints. Also there is a variety of products to choose from. Staff are friendly as well.”

“One of the nicest hotels I’ve stayed in for some time. The kindness and helpfulness of the staff is one of the outstanding qualities of his hotel. The breakfast is on par with most Michelin star restaurants. We stayed in a suite in the House Building. Quality of the furnishings, the style and the cleanliness were exceptional. . Everything was chic but luxurious . I am now looking for reasons to return to Reading so I can stay here again .”

“Be At One is our preferred cocktail destination in Reading. The cocktails are not just good; they're absolutely awesome. The environment is charming, vibrant, and cozy, creating a perfect setting for enjoying exceptional drinks. The bartenders add to the experience with their friendly and skillful service. It's a go-to spot for a delightful night out.”

“Dukes ride food and wine is amazing me and my friend go here almost everyday and life would not be the same without it it is so cheap and the people are legends !!”

“I want to say a massive thank you to Sarah, who was on duty yesterday (Thursday the 3rd around 11 am), for such amazing customer service! Also, I have to add that the manager on duty was very helpful and found a solution for my little issue quite quickly! Thank you guys for being so professional, going the extra mile, and still providing excellent service with a smile :) PS My friend loved the champagne :)”

“Zero degrees Microbrewery Review: A Blend of Great Brews, Bites, and Atmosphere Recently, I had the pleasure of taking my uncle, visiting from India, to a local microbrewery with a restaurant, and it turned out to be an exceptional experience. The brewery's ambience was a standout feature—industrial yet inviting, with gleaming tanks, pipes, and brewing equipment creating an immersive setting for craft beer enthusiasts. The atmosphere felt lively yet relaxed, perfect for a casual outing. We started with a couple of drinks, and the brewery's offerings did not disappoint. Each sip reflected the artistry of small-batch brewing. For food, we opted for a wood-fired mushroom pizza, buttermilk chicken, and classic French fries. The pizza was a revelation, with a crisp, charred crust and fresh toppings that made every bite flavorful. The buttermilk chicken was succulent, tender, and seasoned to perfection, while the fries were crisp and addictive—an ideal accompaniment to our drinks. The service added another layer of charm to our visit. The staff were attentive, friendly, and efficient, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable dining experience.”

“First time visiting Yo! Sushi with some friends this evening and picked/ordered some dishes which are really delicious. The staff are absolutely fantastic and the overall service experience is great, really enjoyed the visit.”

“The variety was impressive. There was a dedicated section for sushi and sashimi that was constantly restocked, and the seafood on ice—including shrimp, crab legs, and oysters—was very fresh. The carving station was a highlight, with a perfectly cooked roast beef and a delicious herb-crusted ham. The hot food section had a great international selection. The Chinese-style honey walnut shrimp was a crowd-pleaser, and the Italian pasta station allowed you to customize your dish. I also appreciated the live cooking counters where chefs prepared noodles and teppanyaki right in front of you.”

“I was attending a reunion event, which was a private affair in a side room. The service of the staff was superb. The food was tasty and well presented.”

“Cool place with a good atmosphere. The burgers we ordered were really good. My only problem was that the location wasn’t obvious and easy to find the first time.”

“Went here today! Absolutely amazing! Gave us 2 free milkshakes on the house. Also gave us a lot of extra chips in our bag. Would come back! Nice burgers as well”

“Had a lovely meal at Spicy Tadka. Decor was beautiful. Food came out very quick and with beautiful flavours. Would come again.”

“Was searching for a place to have breakfast and stumbled upon this little gem here! This cafe exudes warmth and friendliness. Perfect spot for a cozy catch-up or a serene solo moment. A true neighborhood treasure ^^⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Food served was incredibly fresh and flavorful. I’m definitely becoming their regular customer! Looking forward to try different dishes on the menu:)”

“Excellent Karak Tea and Pink (Kashmiri) tea, full of taste and freshly made. Cheesy chips were good too but only one thing needs to improved which is potatos quality (suggestion). The taste of chips were not good(Dry) as it should be but all other things were awesome and delicious. Many thanks.”

“I’ve hosted many events at Brewdog Reading and always get fantastic personal service. Any time I bring an industry contact here it always goes down well. I was convinced to join a beer tasting event hosted by Madoc and had a really fantastic time. Knowledgable, generous and we all stayed afterwards for more recommendations. Will definitely come to more of these events.”

“Always a good experience here with the food. Staff were polite and attentive and the atmosphere is just perfect. We always end up at the All Bar One whenever we’re having a Breakfast/Brunch out. The food is great and what attracted us the most was the vegetarian and healthy juices. Today we had the shared meze board and root juice....absolutely yummy!”

“So pleased that CMart is now open in the Asda complex in Lower Earley. Plenty of parking spaces and I can now combine weekly grocery shopping with Chinese food shopping all in one trip! CMart also meets all my needs for Chinese food ingredients . Staff are always nice and happy to help too!”

“The best seafood experience I’ve ever had!so glad we chose this restaurant, everything from the food to the service was perfect, Such a professional and talented team.”

“Not much to say as Co-Op is pretty much a boiler plate solution across the country. I will say however the staff were friendly and chatty, which always stands out from others. I always find it amazing on how much they can put on offer in these stores, given the space they have to work with.”

“The food is great value espically for a family of 6 like us. Great buys but we only go there for our frozen foods. Best bargains are the Greg sausage rolls. Be aware if none in the freezers when you get there just ask as they usually have loads out the back. Shop quite a large store so plenty of space.”

“They always have a great selection of delicatessen foods, herb teas and fresh vegetables.”

“A great shop to buy fresh fruit and vegetables and lots of Asian cooking supplies you don't find in some other shops. The staff are very kind and friendly and make shopping here a nice experience. Special mention to Mohammed who runs the place and Sylvie who is also often behind the counter. They give much more personal and friendly service than you would get in a chain supermarket.”

“I use my local Marks & Spencer regularly and the staff have always been fantastic, however, this week (12.06.2023 approx: 15:30) I witnessed just how ‘above and beyond’ they go. An elderly gentleman came into the store, he was obviously disoriented. Staff pulled together to assist him without a thought. Janet patiently spoke to him and helped him find the few items he wanted. Then the store manager (I am so sorry I’m not sure I have remembered his name correctly) Abdulla? He was a young dark haired man. He actually walked the gentleman home!!!. They were keen to make sure he was ok and advised that he does come in regularly but he is not usually as confused. The patience and care they showed this gentleman really touched me and restored my faith in humanity, particularly in a world where it seems large companies are keen to push ‘money saving technology’. Thank you!!!”

“Popped in for a couple of bits and ended up buying 2 meal deals. Great selection of produce, especially the flowers.”

“The initial review, submitted on Friday, conveyed dissatisfaction regarding a £75 charge for an early check-in, which was two hours prior to the standard check-in time. It is important to clarify that only one room was booked, not two. Furthermore, our arrival was not at 12:30; however, the primary reason for the negative review was the perceived rudeness of the individual I spoke with over the phone. Moving forward, following my stay at the hotel on Saturday, I was granted both an early check-in and a late check-out, which was greatly appreciated. The staff demonstrated exceptional professionalism and hospitality. The hotel maintains a high standard of cleanliness and offers a diverse selection of culinary options, including a main menu and a breakfast buffet. I highly recommend this establishment and would certainly choose to stay here again. My sincere thanks to the entire team for their accommodating service.”

“One of the best restaurants in Reading I have been to so far. The prices are bit a higher, but well worth the price. Even though we had Christmas there the service was super quick and about 40 people were served under 5 minutes. The food presentation was outstanding, and the food was tasty. Free onsite parking. Having said that it is worth spending time here.”

“Browns brasserie and bar was recommended to me and what a recommendation! Everything was absolutely perfect, from the service to the food. We were seated quickly, given time to settle in before asking for our drinks order (I hate being asked before I've even had the opportunity to muse the drinks menu!) though we were asked if we wanted water. Our waiter, Daniel, was very good and accommodating, even offering items not on the menu. I ordered the side salad of rocket and tomato and he offered a proper mixed salad instead, which was a really nice touch. Starters: The salt and pepper squid was really good, served with an absolute divine sauce. The mushrooms were tenderly cooked so they were still full of flavour. Main: The prawn and crab linguine was very tasty with just about the right amount of crab to add a delightful but not overpowering taste. The pesto lightly complimented the pasta, prawns and crab. The chips were golden, fluffy and generously dusted with parmesan cheese. The mixed side salad was just that, including radish and cucumber plus different types of greeny, not just said rocket. No dessert as we both felt nicely full. The coffee served was very good, strong without being bitter. Throughout our meal, we were checked on regularly by Daniel but not in an interfering or intrusive way. Browns is not a cheap night out with the bill, including a service charge of 10% was just over £115 (2 starters, two mains, two sides, 4 glasses of wine and one coffee), however, in my view, definitely worth it! Browns is the epitome of how to do service and food exceptionally well! Bravo Browns!”

“A good branch of Co-op. Friendly, helpful staff. Well-stocked shelves. There's a cash machine just outside. There's a decent amount of free parking available behind the store. This is accessible via an alleyway next to the entrance.”

“Great place to pick up essentials. Always well stocked and friendly and positive staff. Easy to park outside and never queue for long inside the shop. Current opening times are 7am - 8pm with first hour being for NHS staff.”
