The Monument Public House, Newbury

What a shit hole. If crap cloudy off beer served by a toothless wanker who thinks it's acceptable then this is the place for you !!! Unbelievable

The Two Brewers Inn, Chipperfield

Under new management I'm told and vastly improved. Still the best spot on a summer's afternoon for miles around

Fender100 clearly thinks anyone under the age of 25 is a 'chav' or 'proletarian pleb'. The REAL plebs can be found in the Old Chequers or Crickets - where it's also more expensive! Nothing wrong with this place - read the other comments!

The Three Guineas, Reading

Having been to this pub today, all I can say is don't be fooled by the number of real ales they have on sale - it is clearly a case of quantity not quality! I ordered a pint of Lancaster Bomberand having waited a while for it to clear fully, it didn't. I tasted it just to be doubly sure and, yes, it was no-where near right.
I took it back to the bar, expecting a straight-forward swap for another beer only for my pint to be whisked off down the bar the another member of staff and some fat bloke in shorts drinking a pint.
The barman returned to tell me 'Our cellarman says there's nothing wrong with it.'!!
Having been a licensee for 15 years with Cask Marque and Beautiful Beer accreditations, I know damn well when a pint is good and when it isn't. If their "cellarman" reckons that was a good pint, God only knows what state their cellar is in! Realising the customer was never going to be right in this place, I left in disgust, feeling it was better to warn others about this place and never go there again myself. AVOID AVOID AVOID !!!
