The Bell Inn, Aldworth

Excellent! This is what pubs should be about. Simple selection of inexpensive, good sandwiches and ploughman plates. Brilliant West Berks beer.
Disagree with a previous comment about children. The pretty garden made for an exciting labyrinth for 2 toddlers. Didnt venture too far into the pub itself as it was heaving but those sitting inside appeared to be loving the cramped and cosy atmosphere. A proper pub.
Not for London-luvvy, Rayban's on inside, Porsche Cayenne driving, keep-up-with-the-Jones's wallys from West London. The gents toilet is outside and you'd get your Paul Smith loafers dirty.

The Bottle and Glass, Binfield Heath

A cosy, country pub that serves very good food and a selection of beers, recently taken over by new management. The twee thatch and the pretty garden might attract the passers by but the food should be the main reason for visiting from outside the area. Delicious and well presented, I am yet to be dissapointed. Definately worth visiting if you are walking in the area or even planning an evening occassion or working lunch.
