Final comment - This pub is now CLOSED and will open in late August 2011 as a Cooperative Food store (but will they change the name of the bus stop??)
|
It now looks as though this place will not be a COOP store but one of their funeral parlours!! The Death of the English Pub???
|
Gone - another pub bites the dust. This one is being converted into a COOP store even though there already is one just up the road?!
|
Now boarded up and looking very sad for itself. Another pub gone forever :-(
|
After being on the market for some time, the Star now has a SOLD sign on it and there are rumours as to the buyer. It was reported that Tesco's were after it for another of their Express stores - then there was a story that the Coop had got it for a funeral parlour !!!! I know the pub trade is dying but this is ridiculous.

Pub now closed :-(

Two Bridges IS on offer, but usually only one sort at a time. Despite a few teething problems the beer is always in good nick - always drinkable, sometimes excellent. Good price too: currently less than 2 quid a pint!!!!
|
Two Bridges ale is served here, usually a choice of two, and is very good. People have started visiting the Star just for this beer alone. Quiet, which is a shame, as it isn't the place its former reputation suggests, and the staff are friendly. This pub deserves a chance.

News is that the new brewery in Caversham - Two Bridges - is supplying their Golden Cygnet beer. A couple of 2nd hand reports say the beer quality is good.
