3 weeks agoWhat an absolute delight. The food was spectacular in every way. As a party of six, we managed to try a variety of dishes and every one was wonderfully presented, well portioned and had obviously been cooked and prepared with a great deal of care. I went for the belly pork which was so good, it's managed to get up there into my top 5 of all time. Our server was very attentive, friendly and well informed. Our party included someone with a nut allergy and this was very well catered for too. This place had the intimacy of a small restaurant but it's layout provided plenty of tables. You will need to book as this is a very popular place to eat. Highly recommend.

2 months agoModern British cuisine with global touches and ingredients is served at this chic restaurant in Reading. Two dining areas: one informal pub style and another one elegant-dark modern room. All the dishes are expertly executed. We particularly enjoyed the duck starter and the pork belly, which had an outstanding flavour and incredibly crispy skin. Large selection of drinks and appropriate wine list. The only improvement point is part of the service, although attentive and polite, clearly not professional.

a month agoGiving 5 stars because of their phenomenal sticky toffee pud! Celebrated husband’s birthday there. We ordered raw oysters, seared scallops and grilled bone marrow to start with. The seafood was very fresh and juicy. The bone marrow was very rich and creamy. For main, we had duck breast and monkfish wrapped in bacon. Both were beautifully cooked. Ought to end a birthday meal on a sweet note so we had crème brûlée and sticky toffee pudding. The sticky toffee pudding had some crunchy biscuits crumbs on it which made the mouthfeel even more pleasant. Rich toffee taste. Very satisfying! Both were absolutely outstanding desserts. Really one of the best restaurants in Reading. Consistent quality. Highly recommended.
