The Old Boot Inn, located in Stanford Bingley, just west of Reading, offers a homely experience with good food and drink alongside it. It has plenty of events on regularly and a reputation for shawarma.

Buenasado promises an authentic Argentinian experience in the centre of Reading. With plenty of steaks, burgers, chargrilled meats, and hearty salads, this promise is delivered upon primarily by the food on offer and the atmosphere.

An experience of the old life, the grounds spill out past the restaurant, a decadent sweep of green next to a gently pond and beneath the tresses of trees, the French Horn sits in idyll.

Caprice at Crowne Plaza is tucked away in a business park on the southern outskirts of Reading, where no one would expect to find a restaurant of this quality. Make the journey to see for yourself.

A delightful pub that has seen new life in the last few years. Specialising in meat, particularly steak, the Shurlock Inn is perfect to fill a stomach. Also regularly hosting singers, it’s a great time.

Not just a spot to grab a quick bite after a swim, the restaurant at Thames Lido is a much-loved dining destination. Sip summer cocktails on the terrace or enjoy cosy Spanish dishes in the winter, all while overlooking the historic landmark.

Located in Binfield Heath, just between Reading and Henley-on-Thames, Orwells considers itself within a rural environment and has adopted a philosophy to match. It only uses seasonal produce, much home-grown, and mainly from the UK.

Bladebone Inn offers a gastronomic experience characterised by a respect for beef, specifically steaks. A philosophy that food and drink should coexist in harmony, not just perpendicular prevails. Enjoy a good dinner, lunch, or breakfast.

If you plan on heading a little further from Reading's town centre, The Bull Inn is a short drive away in Stanford Dingley. A cosy pub setting with a menu of classic dishes, plus their much-celebrated Italian nights every Wednesday, it's an ideal spot for dinner with the famaily.
