3 months agoLovely place, good food, me and my friends had the tasting menu. The food was good. All cooked well and compliments to the chef. Service was on point there when we needed and was very observant of our table. Atmosphere was a nice quiet place but seemed empty. It was a 19:00 ( 07:00 ) reservation and lasted until 21:30 ( 09:30 ) on a bank holiday on Friday. Overall service was good, food was good. We paid £450 for 4x tasting menues. 1 bottle of wine and 2 x cocktails. Price was a little expensive but the food was good so can't complain. I do recommend for a nice dinner out in Reading for a celebration or a fancy dinner.

3 months agoCame for afternoon tea to celebrate a birthday. I must give props for the availability of a vegan afternoon tea menu in the first place, and the food was mostly great. Unfortunately our first choices of teas weren’t available (neither of them), and it was definitely the noisiest afternoon tea experience I’ve ever had Not the fault of staff, but it definitely affected our experience.

a month agoWe had a nice afternoon tea — the food was nice and the staff, especially the girl who served us, were warm and friendly, which really added to the experience. However, the overall atmosphere was let down by the cleanliness of the space. The walls were noticeably dirty, and the AC unit was in a similar state, which isn't ideal for a dining or tea setting. A little TLC could really elevate the place and bring it up to the standard the service deserves.

5 months agoWe enjoyed eating at the Reading Room last night. The whole experience was amazing. It wasn’t our first time there, so I’m happy the standard is consistently high. The food was delicious and looked beautiful. The staff were very professional and although they were always nearby, it didn’t feel awkward. The dinner finished with a really sweet, personal touch - couple of chocolates on a plate with a sign „happy anniversary”. I highly recommend the restaurant.

a month agoTook my Nan for afternoon tea for her birthday, she absolutely loved it and so did I, food was fantastic, especially the cakes and scones, sandwiches were nice but nothing amazing, the service was very good and the staff were so friendly, nice atmosphere and the piano music was a lovely touch. It was definitely good value for money and would highly recommend.
