Easily missed as you walk up the Oxford Road is this pub. Small inside with TVs showing Sky Sports News. Music playing at a decent level on my Monday morning visit with a few regulars. No ale on offer here just lager. I had an Amstel at £3.95 which I thought was a good price. Not a bad little pub, although I can imagine on an evening or weekends it would be difficult to get a seat.

Nothing changes. Which is how the regulars like it. Says 'ales' on the exterior sign but that's a lie.

Little Irish pub on the Oxford Road by Reading West station. Surprisingly modern both inside and outside - inside looks like it came out of the Wetherspoons interior refurbishment catalogue. No real ale.

Used to be a very lively little Irish boozer, no ale but the Guinness was cheap.It seems to have lost the atmosphere and vitality now that it once had.
