1. Restaurant review: Miller & Carter Steakhouse

2. Restaurant review: Poachers Pub

The Poachers proposition is good food in a good pub.

3. Restaurant review: The Baron Cadogan

A good haggis has quite a peppery tang and is certain to cheer you up on a good cold winter’s day. Wetherspoon’s version is just that.

4. Restaurant review: The Fisherman's Cottage

The Fisherman’s Cottage on Kennetside has recently introduced a dedicated Thai kitchen alongside its traditional pub menu – and it’s fantastic.

5. Restaurant review: Côte at The Oracle

Offering a Gallic-themed menu, and featuring a mix of small tables and large booths, Côte Reading is a great place for a business lunch or a family get-together.

6. Food Review: Beefeater Grill, Reading

In these credit crunched times eating out seems like an easy thing to cut back on. But Beefeater Grill has an offer that you’ll find hard to refuse.

8. Best Western Moat House Hotel, Sindlesham

Sindlesham’s Moat House Hotel is currently running a special set menu on Sundays and it comes at a price that makes you look twice.

9. Pub brekkie at the The Monks’ Retreat

Seven O'clock. That’s not the usual time you’ll find me in a Reading pub. Well, not in the morning, anyway. No, I wasn’t drinking from the fountain of youth before starting the day, but actually enjoying a breakfast special.

10. A bountiful Harvester at Prospect Park

The Mansion House, my friend Barbara told me while we were eating there on Sunday, used to be a pavilion.
