The Allied Arms, Reading

Over priced but for a gay pub not too bad. Not enough Erasure on the jukebox mind.

Slowbear hopefully it will ruin a business if your clientèle consists of racists, homophobes and sexist bores. The inherent design of the internet is to rightly highlight your failings be that as incoherent, drunk, or a drug addict and cross dresser. Just because you are a homosexual in denial doesn't mean a pub is a good or bad pub; just you like man bum. Regardless you will always be fond of the bottom and I will always be here to rubbish the rubbish. Amen.

BrownBarellait is well known in 'spoons circles you were barred from a certain better boozer for how can I put this; INCONTINENCE/GRUNDY SHATTING! How is it anyone's fault your out of control derrière and staining seats sessions got you a barrage other than your brown rimming self eh? Think on that and can one kindly suggest you take a family pack of Andrex next time you frequent a hostelry eh?

The Monks Retreat, Reading

Ass fan just a tip; we don't want you in the Monks and Hitler had the right idea regarding your kind. Although I suspect you are actually landlord CHRIS WIGGETT in creepy fictional guise bumping down every negative review with a positive eh? I'm not sure which persona is creepier but either way get a life/grip/shaver eh George Michael?

The Purple Turtle, Reading

A real sh*thole. Always has been.

The Retreat, Reading

How many owners have they been through this year already?

Thatchers Tavern, Woodley

Cracking boozer; one of the best kept secrets in the local area.

The Lyndhurst, Reading

Unfortunately the closure was only temporary and another unfortunate landlord will shortly be entering the fray. You cannot (re)polish a turd sir.

Roebuck, Marchwood

A very local yokels type venue frequented by your hoodie brigade. The carpets also smell distinctly of urine.

The Hope Tap, Reading

I see Simon Harding has arrived upon this establishment upon gust of his own flatulence eh? Having being dispelled upon a brown air biscuit from the Monks Retreat Simon is seemingly intent on farting his way to 'spoons glory it would appear. Dirty farting swine that he is.

The Warwick Arms, Reading

A Thai restaurant; calling it a pub is pushing it.

14 Sep 2013 11:01

The Dolphin, Betchworth

Annabee, try McDonalds; a pub is clearly above your IQ level.

10 Sep 2013 13:57

The Queens Head, Wokingham

Distinct smell of urine permeates the bar area.

Fuck off Elkart you toe sucking turd; Jason Lord has to be stopped! He's a racist homophobic bully of immense proportions and that's coming from a homophobic racist turdage! He's been putting posters up about patrons and snorting the wares of the spoons that is fore sure; MOOMIN TROLL! I screamed aloud, as it tore through them, and now it's left me blind.

O'Neills, Reading

A sterile overpriced venue for drinkers of cheese only. And don't even start on the inbred locals; a hybrid of Narnia hiding Rugby types and pontificating office hordes, on a plus at least they haven't tried to bite us.

The Walkabout, Reading

See picture above. If that doesn't put you off then the watered down sauce may. Failing that stop drinking. On this planet, it's easy.

The Oakford Social Club, Reading

Have you seen a chav break dance like a chimp? If not frequent this establishment and you soon will. It's a mad house! A mad house!

The Diamond Tap, Newbury

In this boozer the dolphins were monkeys that didn't like the land walked back to the water went back from the sand.

23 Jul 2013 16:53

The Three Tuns, Reading

I see very little to gripe about here; the pub as it is is run by inbreds for inbreds and any possible changes that deter this kind of scum can only be for the better. I recall reading an article about it on the GetReading website and the regulars and staff were semi-coherent rambling and threatening folk who dared suggest they were just a bunch of NIMBYs. Which of course they are amongst being folk from hills.

What is up with the new 'spoons music nights? I was under the impression JD operated a no music policy. However Lord Jason has now deemed eighties nights a modus operandi over the now cancelled quiz night. Whereas before we had innumerable questions about Erasure and the Pet Shop Boys we now have to put up with their bl**dy tunes!

10 Apr 2013 19:00

The Retreat, Reading

A vast improvement now under new management. The new owners have also managed to swing it so the building is the beer equivalent of a listed building. Something the last lot clearly couldn't manage eh?

9 Apr 2013 12:39

Nags Head, Reading

This pub seems to attract a rather dubious crowd although considering the location this is hardly surprising. At weekends fights often occur outside so I'm sorry but cannot really recommend it.

The Horn, Reading

You mean DJ Dan the Pie-Step General who also gigs at The Sun up the road? With his ever ready Numark decks and a fresh batch of pies this guy is a-rollin' literally! I hear he is treating his good lady to a romantic night out at that most avant-garde of Valentine's venues; Burger King. Mind you the King are offering an all week £1.99 Whopper deal so methinks everyday will be Valentine's this week for the Pie-Step general eh?

The Hop Leaf, Reading

A right bunch of oddbods and eccentrics in this here hole. This is also clearly where the jobless go when the Wetherspoons won't take them! Not to mention the overpriced ale selection. Avoid.

The Monks Retreat, Reading

The Monks has improved greatly of late all thanks to the powers-that-be-spoons giving the landlady/manager the heave-ho. Now takings are up, spirit bottles aren't missing and bar staff actually bat a smile now and again; good times.

24 Jan 2013 09:52

The Retreat, Reading

It is rumoured the mighty Maggs are taking over this venue which many will concur will be an improvement on the stoic faced eccentric duo who currently (mis)manage it. Onwards and upwards has never rang so true!

The Blagrave Arms, Reading

Walked in.
Laughed at how bad the refurb was.
Walked out.

The Horn, Reading

Under new management although some very odd new rules too; you can now take your own food in apparently as I witnessed a ham-burglar working on his atkins the other week. Looked like the old chef from Bobs only 20 stone heavier!

The Queens Hotel, Newbury

You'd be hard pressed to find a less characterless boozer with the customers to match. Lot of lezzer types with Doc Martens too, bleurghhhcha.

13 Nov 2012 14:25

The Catherine Wheel, Henley-On-Thames

Miserable staff, highest priced 'spoons in the area and let's not beat about the bush; Henley has gone the way of Reading with the nearby council house hordes and non-indigenous ruining the place. Tory Britain for you...

24 Aug 2012 10:27

The Face Bar, Reading

According to the local paper the Council are about to close this venue due to under-age drinking and the gang culture it seems to encourage. About bl**dy time!

Cracking nights now the Olympics cobblers is over. Bar-staff par excellence Tonya & Ash have brought the tunes back to Bobs and big stylee. I'm amazed they've managed to overcome the ever present burden of stuck in the eighties Lord Jason and his evil dwarf-ette wife. Does she actually do any work by the way? Granted hobbits can only do fifty percent less graft than the rest of us but she has turned still-motion into an art and a paid by the hour one to boot! But regardless of the powers-that-be the MUCH younger members of staff have brought the live music vibe back into the place and not a moment too soon. A little bird tells me Ash having just won 'spoons employee of the month will soon be getting an impromptu visit from the mighty Dappy at his workplace very shortly. Good work is if ever not unrewarded in a 'spoons of that it is certain! HERE COME THE REMIX!

Sean, you'd be better off in the rear admiral aye?

Nags Head, Reading

You aren't the first to type that Del, sounds like the Nags is attempting to keep up with the criminal element of the surrounding area!

17 Jul 2012 10:21

The Hope Tap, Reading

Take one average 'spoons, add a sweaty horde of jobless toerags (from the practically next-door job-centre) with a pinch of dodgy Polish imports and allow to simmer. Yep, you've guessed it pop pickers, another one to avoid...

17 Jul 2012 09:26

The Granby, Reading

Is it now safe for straight punters to visit? Or is it still backs to the wall time?

13 Jul 2012 21:38

Berkshire Tavern, Newbury

Overpriced and has successfully imported the dubious regulars/chav brigade from the old Hatchet days. Avoid unless you like starring in your own episode of Shameless. There was even a fellow with a ferret in his pocket; not sure how that got past the bar staff although some of them were clearly sampling their own wares!

17 Nov 2011 11:31

Snooty Fox, Newbury

Now a gay bar. That is all.

17 Nov 2011 11:28

Coopers Arms, Reading

Hasn't reopened and looks like a bunch of travellers have moved in/squatted.

3 Nov 2011 20:22

The Diamond Tap, Newbury

A very gay friendly pub. That is all.

The Alehouse, Reading

they used to play motorhead now it is only pet shop boys!
