Geo Cafe in Reading

We stopped by Geo Cafe while passing through, and it was such a pleasant surprise! The breakfast we ordered was absolutely delicious – fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The owner was incredibly nice and welcoming, making us feel right at home. To top it off, we were treated to some desserts on the house, which were equally amazing. This place has a cozy vibe and great food. Highly recommend if you're in the area!

Excellent pistachio croissant. I do think a slight reorganisation would be advisable as the tables are very close together.

Love the coffee, pastries, and the friendly staff. Vegan options too!

Terrible customer service. Couldn't even be bothered to apologise for a ridiculous wait to warm up a quiche. Ended up taking away in a brown paper bag to have at home. Asked for a refund beforehand and the staff couldn't even do that !! What a shame as coffee is good .

2024: so we gave this place another chance today and I will say I was wrong. The racist lady isn’t there anymore and we were served by extremely nice young girlies who were lovely to interact with. Food is 10/10 and atmosphere is cute and cosy💕🩷 never say never I guess 2022 review: Went there with my mum dad and sister who are visiting reading. I’ve been there before and no problem. We were served by a middle aged brunette who was extremely rude. She only had a problem with my mum who is a hijabi. My mum asked if we can have extra cutlery and she gave her a whole lecture about how staff get abused by customers??? She refused to give an extra cup of tea😂 Never going again, not acceptable treatment.

Great coffee, tea, pastries and bread! Always enjoy my visits here.

My favourite cafe in Reading, everything tastes amazing and I love the quirkiness of the place. It's unique and so friendly. They support the locals and highly value the community.

EDIT: I have revisited this cafe 4 times since and unfortunately the wrap has been disappointing every time since; bland in flavour. However I do recommend the pistachio croissant and the coffee is of nice quality too. Amazing service, very friendly staff. It does get very busy in the cafe but they have seating in the back. Aside from the coffee, if i were to recommend one thing; itd definitely be the chicken wrap with the walnut sauce! Must try.

Best place in caversham. Incredibly friendly staff. Amazing food coffee and pastry. Always offering free stuff to try if you're torn. The chicken wrap (must have with both sauces) is delicious and a bargain.

Geo Cafe is normally ok, but the bacon just wasn't on form today - burnt to a crisp.

Wow....suprised by the quality of the food and coffee.

Beautiful courtyard secret escape at back! Perfect to hide away ☺️ Delicious food and coffee Very good find!!

Absolute gem of a cafe with a great little patio garden out back. Amazing pastry and coffee was very well done. Ended up coming back for lunch. Banging food! Staff were all lovely and made us an affogato for our pud.

A lovely, cozy coffee shop offering a nice selection of cakes. They also sell one of the best breads I’ve ever had!

Pet friendly & lovely little cafe ❤️ The brunch was eggsellent and of the best carrot cakes I've ever had!

Drinking coffee in this cafe is not enough to keep a table, you will be asked to leave the establishment to ‘free the table’ at lunch time even if you haven’t finished your drink

I love this cafe I highly recommend it, the best service ever!! And really friendly staff.The food and drinks are delicious and high quality ❤️

This is my favourite cafe in Caversham for the well made coffee and interesting pastries. The staff on Christmas Eve were particularly friendly. Even though they were getting ready to close, the 2 staff still made me a coffee with a smile

What a cute little coffee shop with excellent coffee and courteous staff!

BEST CAFE IN THE WORLD !!!!! i highly recommend

Nice cafe - dog friendly, good coffee and pastries, open early mornings!

the most adorable cafe, with BALLIN sourdough and that coffee walnut cake…so delicious that we wanted to ask for the recipe, but decided no since something so good should be kept a secret. We will be back for more!

Good food. Really long waits. 40+ mins for one wrap to go. Not worth such a long wait in fairness. Got a refund. Avoid going at peak lunch times, clearly can’t handle the level of customers.

I wanted to like it, and my coffee was nice, but the service was so disorganised. In the one hour I was there, multiple queues of takeaway customers built up, one person's sit-in order was forgotten, another's was delivered to the wrong table, and a vegan was given cow's milk. One table gave up waiting. The shop had also ran out of bread (and most cake), there was no loo roll in the toilets, and the khachapuri was advance order only - there's really isn't much Georgian stuff on the menu. A real shame - hopefully, the staff will sort it out and learn to cope with their popularity.

Great and cozy place with perfect coffee, delicious aubergine wraps and lovely staff.

Love the welcome and the walnut paste wraps and the coffee and walnut cake. It’s a true find. The tea quality is superlative too!

Amazing little gem! Lovely staff, friendly bustling atmosphere with quiet tables to read a book and have a hot chocolate. The best croissants I’ve ever had. Really recommend the chicken wrap with the plum jam!

Love this cafe. Love the local honey and other products you can buy here.

We love Geo Cafe and often make the trip over the river when we’re in Reading. A favourite of mine is the cheese toastie with a blend of cheeses and the magical ingredient of Georgian paste - delicious! The service is always friendly and the atmosphere warm and welcoming with the air of a beloved family venture

My favourite coffee store in Reading! Delicious and fresh medialunas everyday:) My only complaint is the employee that was yesterday Thursday morning. She didn’t do a good service. But I love this place and I will continue visiting it!!

Food wasn't anything special particularly for the price. We had 'Brunch' which wasn't brunch it was a slice of toast with two eggs and a couple of pieces of bacon!

Friendly staff. Good coffee with delicious pastries. Lunch quiches fresh out of the oven looked very tasty. Will stop for lunch next time.

Definitely the best lunch in Caversham

Best cafe in Reading. Staff are so friendly, coffee is delicious, venue is really lovely to hang out in. But the biggest thing is the pastries - fresh every day, unique sourdough flavour, good selection. The local produce and artwork is such a nice touch. Feels like a real heart of the community. Have loved living so close the last 2 years - very sad to be moving away.

Great coffee and tasty bread. My favourite place to grab a coffee when visiting caversham.

Wonderful welcome with gorgeous food and excellent coffee. Came for lunch and every member of our party was raving about their food. Pastel De Nata were particularly good!

Tasty food. Lovely outside area

Cozy place with delicious food I ordered scrambled egg and it was yummy!! Great service, amazing staff Definitely will come back !

Popped in for a quick drink after a busy day in Reading. Great service only had a cup of tea but sat in the attractive seating area in the back. Will return soon and hopefully try one of the cakes on offer.

The food is nice and the bread is good. Space is very small and tight and the service is quite cold and unfriendly. The cafe generally is very unfriendly for kids (kid need to be kept on “leash” otherwise they are told off) - owners should probably not allow people with kids, rather than make a really unpleasant experience for kids and people with kids.

Friendly family run cafe. As I am originally from Georgia I can say that food in authentic. Must try Khachapuri, Chakhrakina and of course wraps with original Georgian Adjika.

A great little cafe with a lovely courtyard out the back. I enjoyed a delicious plant based cherry and chocolate muffin. The staff were so friendly and attentive too. Il be back again soon!

Great food, coffee and ambience and lovely plants in the outdoor seating area!

Very nice food and pastries. The bread looks great - along with the pastries it’s fresh from the bakery. I ate in and also took away a chicken wrap (very nice and filling) and a pastry.

Had a lovely lunch very nice wrap and great ice tea. The only downside is it is not great in the heat. Highly recommend getting it to go and finding somewhere cool to enjoy it.

I forgot to leave a review here. Thank you for consistently providing great coffee and for your friendly gestures throughout the years. I can always recall the warm experiences I've had here.

We had breakfast few weeks ago. We ordered Eggs, Halloumi and Mushrooms on toast. It is really good and tasty. Particularly the spice mix that came along with the toast made it better than the usual toast. Also we had pistachio croissant which tasted amazing as well.

Absolutely delicious toasted sandwich - not cheap but superb and much better than the food you get in chain cafes

Quick service in the nice and cosy place. Enjoyable garden in good weather, wind proof. Great food and cafe.

Lovely Georgian and other international treats. Friendly cosy ambience and good service a norm.

Was nice food...eggs on toast, difficult to get wrong, just a tad too expensive. £26 for 2 with a tea

Excellent coffee and great ambience

They serve the best tea and coffee and their croissants are world class.

Only went in for a coffee, but the range of breads and pastries is terrific. They also do evenings and other, themed events. Great service, and although it's small, it has a relaxed, welcoming feel to it. Will return for more than coffee

Just saw this coffee shop and went in. Was very busy, but the service and food were spot on. 2 hot drinks and 3 pastries £17 for a lovely atmosphere and cosy feel. Spot on.

Best cafe in the Caversham area. Extremely kind, friendly owners and staff.

Not loads of space to sit inside on chilly days, but the food, coffee, service and general vibe all mean you won't even mind 👌One of our favourite Caversham haunts.

We were 3 friends sat down for breakfast. After 40 minutes we were asked to get up for other customers. so embarrassing we have not seen this from any other business in this area.

Smallish place. Very good coffee. Almond croissants still a bit chewy

Great coffee and by far the best wrap we had.

Lovely small and cozy coffee shop. Beautiful pastries and friendly, local atmosphere

Solid coffee and best sandwiches I've had in my entire life.

Came on Sunday 2pm, travelled 35 mins to this place to hear that chef is not here and “they are afraid they are not serving food” 😵‍💫

Amazing little cafe! Such friendly staff, they very kindly offered us some offcuts of the mille feuille after our lunch. Felt more like we were in a Georgian living room eating with friends than in a café. Such fantastic hospitality.

Lovely independent family coffee shop serving great coffee and amazing pistachio croissants and pecan pastry. Can't wait to go back soon after they remodel their kitchen to try some of the freshly made pastries and breads.

Lovely fresh and tasty food and great coffee.

So we went there to have khachapuri and unfortunately they don’t have it after pandemic and they only available for made to order or when they have workshops And there were limited options as compared to what google shows Although we had hot chocolate and some kind of cheese pastry cups and they were delicious and the lady owner is so cute to talk Must try … thumps up

Delicious homemade wrap and a great variety of loose leaf teas! Will be back!

***New pictures added*** Back on form with the pastries! :-) Changed from 3 star to 4. Used to be great, during pandemic…using unhomogenised milk and then they got lazy and began using co-op milk. For the prices and the organic misc en scene, they should get back on game. However, pastries are different to the usual ones at other coffee shops and really seem homemade - more bun like rather than fluffy pastry. I would recommend biscuit factory for the best coffee in reading BUT if you are local this is better than gardens and the collective.

Delicious pastries, excellent coffee and chai latte. The staff very friendly and helpful really pleased to have this little gem in Caversham.

Great place! Espresso is proper. Aubergine wrap and Georgian chicken were fantastic. So full of flavour. If you're anywhere near be sure to try the aubergine wrap. Set dinners are also a nice option on some days of the week and are also a nice opportunity to learn bit about Georgia and their cuisine. Cafe itself is great for spending some time in. This place also functions as a bakery with good sourdough bread and other nice bakery products. Highly recomended.

Amazing little cafe, feels like home. Friendly staff with smile. The pistachio croissant is something different should give it a try. The rosemary chai is so nice. I’m definitely coming back

Very nice place with friendly owners. We love the walnut-aubergine-pomegranate wrap and the ajika chicken wrap - they are really special, and there is a lot of content in them. Cakes and khachapuri are great, too.

Imagine a London patisserie that does groceries, that's GeoCafé. Excellent quality groceries, coffee and pastries here. The desserts are fantastic. Pandemic forced many shops to shut down but Geo-cafe instead kept open & made the extraordinary transition from successful café to grocer/patisserie. A remarkable achievement without dropping it's high standards.

Amazing lunch, today. Tasty and fresh. Thanks very much.

Great place, lovely people, the chicken wrap is the best sandwich in reading and the coffee is delicious! Thank you so much to the generous staff, too kind.

Really lovely cafe. Excellent scrambled eggs and bacon on sourdough and good value for money. The almond milk hot chocolate is the best in the area.

What a gem this place is. Considerable care is taken over everything, even the toasties are exquisetly done on sourdough with a range of great ingredients. Have only been twice since moving to the area but it will be my go to cafe going forward.

I popped in with friends for a light lunch with no expectations and was really wowed by the experience. The team was very warm and friendly and the cheese and mushroom toastie was out of this world. I would go so far as to say the best I have ever tasted. Make sure you have the tapenade on the top! Highly recommended.

If you feel like having a nice home made food, this is the place to go.

Cute place, beautifully designed and the coffee is spot on; not too strong, not at all bitter. The best cafe in Caversham for friendliness, ambience and quality.

A good local cafe with some unique Georgian dishes, local products and friendly service.

A family-run local business with the best coffee, bread and pastries in Caversham.

Nice set up, good to see an independent place to rival Costa around the corner. Service bit slow but nice coffee.

I love this place! I often come for a takeaway coffee and I find it hard to resist having a pastry too! They are so delicious! The staff is always nice and friendly, great little local café.

Nice posh place in Caversham, cakes are top quality. Bit much expensive

Nata were delicious and the staff so kind giving me advice about caversham since I’m new in the area

Food was really fresh and tasted great. Had the chicken wrap and it’s was lovely. Nice little garden to sit in out the back and really friendly staff.

Lively produce, great cakes, fab coffee. Friendly staff. Dog friendly

Superb croissants made every morning, fresh and hot. One of the best coffee in town served by friendly and helpful staff. Outdoor seating in the back garden is very nice, quiet and secluded. With their service they make every customer a regular. Love these guys!

Lovely people, stunning produce, fantastic coffee and a wonderful covered garden, a real gem!

The creamy coffees are so delicious! Also try their Georgian pizza!

Lovely spot for fresh, local sandwiches, and other produce. Amazing bread, and fantastic coffee.

Open just when I needed it, great (takeaway) coffee, and lovely victoria sponge.

Excellent service with great range of coffees and Sunday katchapuri is a must!

a lovely slice of walnut cake and a great latte served take away but quite a wait for the drinks when there was no queue

Great staff, great coffee and delicious bread, not to mention the various snacks and cakes. Been going here 3 or 4 times a week all pandemic, don't see that changing when we reopen.

Lovely cafe with quick take away service and the best pastel de nata in Berkshire

This is best bread I have eaten. This place has stopped me making my own!! As a child I lived on the Med ( part of our old colonial past,) and the bread I ate there has stayed with me, and never bettered. But...Geo Cafe has brought me back to that wonderful sourdough that I remember from 60 years ago. 5 Stars for bread, but you need to be down to the shop before midday. They do provide an online booking but that is not always convenient. However, this place is a wonderful addition to our Caversham shops.

My favourite café in Caversham! I love their chai lattes and my girlfriend says their cappuccinos are the best. We also buy our bread and pastries here every week. This is a local business that we really need to support!
