Pets in Reading

“Lovely helpful staff and good range of pet products”

“We had a function in the pub and it was a great experience. We had a dedicated function room separated from the main pub. The atmosphere both in the pub and in the function room are really lovely and the fireplaces give just the perfect place for a cosy dinner. Food was truly amazing. Great portions and quality food from the appetisers throughout the meal. Tagliatelle were cooked to perfection and the sea bass with the lemon sauce was mouthwatering. All through the meal, the sauces were just amazing. All the staff was really friendly and we had a great night out.”

“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 .”

“Had a really good experience with Beth, Ellie and Zoe when I went in last week all were lovely and really helpful. Tried to leave a review on the other website but the QRcode/ website wasn't working. :)”

“Fantastic experience with Sophie at Pet Pals; so kind and encouraging for the younger kids. Couldn’t fault it”

“Charley has always been brilliant with our puppy who regularly attends the small pups social walk. It's great that the groups are split into different sizes of pup and we love the pics of the dogs clearly having a great time! Charley is accomodating, caring and professional, I highly recommend her and her team!”

“I took my 6 month old cockapoo to Viki today for her first full groom! After being messed around and unhappy with other groomers in the area it was such a relive to find a reliable, professional groomer who has exceeded my expectations! One very happy puppy and customer. Will definitely come again.”

“Today our girls had their first professional makeover. Laura and Heidi were absolutely wonderful. Lovely wash and manicure and two beautiful dogs at the end, dressed with Christmas bow ties too. Highly recommend and we will be back soon xx”

“Bruno has been very well looked after at The Four Paws, he came home tired and happy, he can be an anxious dog at times so it was good to know he’s made friends and played. Thank you!”

“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.”

“Lucy was very lovely in her customer service in taking out a guinea pig and rabbit for my young cousin to pet :)”

“Always drop my stuff here, lovely staff and good selection of books”

“Booked our rooms for a wedding party a few months ago online and was made aware that we could pre book our rooms a couple of days before so all the family did that... We arrived on Friday afternoon and there was a little mix up with the rooms as it was quite important that we were close to my parents for medical reasons and thankfully we had fantastic service from Simona who resolved it at first touch, after explaining our circumstances. Rooms were clean, fridge, tea coffee and two bottles of water, iron in the room as well. Pillows were absolutely amazing had the best sleep in ages and the beds and duvets were so comfortable. Staff in the morning for breakfast were also very pleasant and helpful. Great selection of breakfast will definitely stay at the Hilton again. Thank you Simona for your help.”

“We have used Vets4pets in Reading for the last 4 or so years. Patrycja and the rest of the team are exceptionally welcoming and professional and clearly have an underlying interest in the welfare of our pets. Equally we are very thankful with the time taken to explain the procedures our cats have had to take, from recovery to costings.”

“I came in to store on Friday 30th June for some advise regarding flea treatments for 4 cats - the lady that helped me was absolutely amazing and right on point with everything she told me to do. i picked up a ticket off the shelves and was told frontline is better so i purchased it instead - within 5 days all fleas are eradicated so thank you so much!! i even walked out with the £25 hooded cat litter tray and what a change that has made to my home already! Your staff are amazing in Farnborough and deserve a little treat from head office. I was frustrated and annoyed walking in but left feeling i’ve got great advice and help along the way so thank you so much to you all”

“Great vets practice been with them for 4 years and they look after both our dogs so well. Staff are fantastic.”

“My two nervous rescue Pointers had a fab time. Thank you for looking after them so well and their needs, even their beds washed for pick up. Highly recommended!”

“Very polite and very quick service. I’ve been using this pharmacy for more than 12 years, and I am very happy with the current service. Staff members are knowledgeable and helpful, too.”

“We arrived at 4. Just found a space as the car park also serves several retail outlets and restaurants. But if had arrived a little later, there wouldn't have been an issue, with ample parking later on. The room was large, clean and comfortable. The bathroom had a bath and shower. There are eateries, including Nandos and Burger king outside, but there were queues outside the door so we opted to eat in. The menu was extensive and catered for everyone. The food was tasty and fresh. Recommend the burgers and chocolate torte”

“Lovely hotel and the themed suites are pricy but a novel treat if you want some space with a different ambience. Fantastic breakfast. No parking on site but there is a multistory on the opposite side of reading train station, so it's only a five minute walk. Great location of you want the reading night life.”

“Big thanks to Alex for the help with my fish tank, such a kind and helpful person. Much appreciated!”

“My dog had to have an emergency appointment last night & the Vets Now Reading team were brilliant. They were efficient, friendly, & caring. Joanne was the receptionist on duty & was extremely kind & helpful. Special thanks to Maddie the nurse for caring for my dog with such affection & treating him like her own :)”

“Have stayed a few times. Always very friendly service and clean room. great value for money. Decided to have a bit of a works get together. 12 of us had great food. (it is very good). Happy friendly service. Would recommend the place and somewhere to stay so you can have a drink and enjoy yourselves.”

“I went in and looked at the guinea pigs while my dog was getting groomed. It was done by a lovely little sweetcorn called Laura!”

“Everytime we're here the staff are helpful, knowledgeable and a delight to chat with. Cant recommend enough for pet needs.”

“Fantastic service here today. The lady was knowledgeable, friendly and polite. She took the time to explain the various pets to my daughter and also answered all my questions too. So very glad I decided to stop here rather than going to a large chain store. Will absolutely visit again.”

“I was staying in the Premier Inn last Wednesday/Thursday night and every morning when I came in for breakfast the young lady always greeted me with a smile and was very friendly. You could see she was rushed off her feet as she was working alone when everybody was all coming in at once. She always put the customers first and despite her other colleagues watching her instead of helping her. She work really hard and even managed to say bye to me as I was walking out the door. Great services by Natacha despite being on her own.”

“Amazing staff! Thank you for the excellent service and support during our stay at Holiday Inn. As an IHG Club member, I truly felt appreciated. The rooms and bathrooms were spotless, making our stay very comfortable. Dinner was excellent — the sea bass was especially vibrant, fresh, and delicious. My family was so happy with the food and service. Breakfast was also impressive, with a wide spread to choose from. Overall, a fantastic experience, and we look forward to staying again.”

“Great location in the centre of Reading. The staff are friendly and helpful. The gym is open 24 hours, which is a great bonus. Parking is a little expensive, but that is expected for a hotel in the city centre. You will need to park a 2 to 3 minute walk from the hotel in a very secure car park. Make sure you visit reception first and scan the QR code for 40% off parking, as it is definitely worth the saving. You can also pull up outside the hotel to drop off your bags and scan the code. The rooms show a small amount of wear and tear, but they offer good value for money and I had an excellent night’s sleep. I would happily stay here again. Plus point, the lobby area is very stylish and welcoming for a drink in the evening.”
