Munchees in Reading - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Interior hasn't changed in almost 20 years and love that food was good. Shame you cannot exchange items like toast for fried bread etc and my friend got an ice tea £3.50 for a bottle of liptons is a joke. He wasn't happy !!

A pretty good "greasy spoon" cafe and very handily located in the centre of Reading. I am surprised that I had never discovered it before, but it is now on my list of places to get a good fry-up

Food turned up without my can of coke, a rasher of bacon missing, hash brown missing and no chips

THE best breakfast I’ve had in a long time , didn’t disappoint at all , this will be my new go to when you need a perfect start to the day 🔥

The food is great, but way too overpriced. £3.95 for a sandwich is absolutely crazy when I could make several sandwiches just like that for a bit less.

Great meal. My girlfriend and I had a really lovely time in the morning having a full English breakfast. Nice big menu and you can customise pretty much anything you want even though the sign says you can't but the staff said you can which is a bonus.

Amazing food and even more amazing that Mike Shinoda from linkin park works in here. 👍

Great for breakfast or lunch. Nice staff, nice atmosphere and good prices.

Wrong order high price without refund.. never again

So quick and amazing food best breakfast place in Reading

Lovely English café stuck in time more specifically the 80s great vibes & fantastic food great prices worth every penny fantastic service

The waiter didn't speak English and we had trouble communicating.

Food is really affordable and nice. People are nice. However tables are quite small and if you are sitting side by side (being chubby as I am) it makes it a bit harder. A place to come in your Sunday gear and eat comfortably.

Nicely priced choices for good food is definitely always a plus, with the menu covering various options on English Breakfast as well as many other options. If ambient sound is a concern of yours, keep in mind where the speakers are located when choosing your table. It is not deafening, but will definitely impair your conversation capacities.

It needs a really good clean, tables dirty on arrival, ceiling fans were caked in years of dust, upstairs tables were dirty. Toilet upstairs was dirty, Food was not cooked properly. Jacket potatoes under cooked. Amazing waitress who served us. Needs updating, and a very good clean.

Missing cheese and onion sandwiches

Fantastic little place. Was looking for somewhere for a quick bite to eat and found this place. Ended up having one of the breakfasts. Great pricecquick and great service. Would definitely go back

Absolutely brilliant greasy spoon. Travelled here from Oxford before work just for the legendary sausage sandwich, lovely staff and a great morning atmosphere! would highly recommend. great value too

My vegetarian breakfast is always so good! My friends had normal meals and it was delicious they said !

It has that 80s feel to it, no matter if it's the small seats, the enormous portions or the beans and sausages that have the quality of that time 😂 But that just adds to the appeal and the English Full breakfast for £9-10 quid is worth it. Drinks are separate but then you can choose to get tea, cofee or a milkshake if your stomache can handle all that! It's the most popular place in town for all day breakfast.

Nice cafe/restaurant in reading town centre. Serves good classic full English breakfast. Big portions. Old school atmosphere. Gives 80s vibes.

This place has it all. Great food, customer service, pricing, options, all of it, you name it.

Chicken was very dry, but service was brilliant, very clean

Proper old school café serving good old-fashioned food with great service and reasonable prices

very nice eyes bigger then belly and no spillage from drink really nice

kept putting delivery back. would not let me cancel. food was stone cold and inedible.

I never right a review but I ordered food and waited then got a call about not having pancakes so replaced it for scrambled egg but I payed for 2 portions of pancakes for both my children sent one little tub with scramble egg not 2 portions and food come cold and tried ringing them no answer won’t be ordering again

Lovely breakfast enjoyed it all

Popped in for a quick early dinner. Food was good, speed excellent and service great. Super cheap and good quality value too.

Drink cup damage which spilled the drink

brilliant food and plenty of choices. cozy American style dinner

Best breakfast so far. Large potions (it beat me)

One of the best breakfast spots I know of, absolutely charming interior and atmosphere.

Nice, basic. Don’t really like the containers as it makes all the food sweaty… and soggy.

Chilli chips could do with being a little less spicy , coming from someone who likes a bit of spice , other than that all was great 👍will be back

Not a bad find in the centre of reading where English breakfast are few and far between, good menu variety and reasonably priced food with good service and plenty of seating, one bug bear would be price of a mug of tea, at just under 3 quid I skipped it and popped to Mac D for a cuppa when I finished, will be coming back though

food was nice n portion was absolutely enough for a person. coffee was also good. definitely recommend this for english breakfast.

Great food and service. Super polite and good value.

Incorrect order arrived. When we called the restaurant they said to order it again but we would need to pay for delivery again. Not helpful. She also hung up on us.

Vegan breakfast £7.95 but no vegan milks or vegan butter so got served up dry toast with no beans or anything to help the dry toast down. Was told not allowed to make substitutes to what the breakfast consists of. Piss poor!!

We sat down to look at menu. Within 5 minutes we were told by 3 different staff to order at the counter. Placed order with a confused looking member of staff. Food came and my order was wrong. Both tables near us also received wrong orders. Food was lower standard cafe quality. We won't return.

If you want a good English breakfast in the town centre then here’s your first port of call. Dry breakfast cooked to perfection. The toasted sandwiches are amazing. Minus one star as you seem to offer chips with breakfast. That is my Welshness talking as we don’t believe that should be in the breakfast 😂!!!

Great traditional cafe. The all-day breakfasts are great, and there is plenty to choose from, or you can create your own. No substitutions allowed, which is fair enough, or would have been 5 stars.

Omelette had a funny taste, unable to finish it.

The food in here is ok and the staff seem to be attentive. Dropped 2 stars because some of the orange seats desperately need cleaning.

The worst cafe I’ve ever eaten in. £14.10 for this. Need I say any more? The people of Reading must be severely deprived of a cafe for this place to have any good reviews. I’d feel guilty feeding those sausages to a dog.

Service was slow and we were the only people in the cafe. They took ages to take our order. I had poached eggs on toast. It was more hard eggs on bread. Not an enjoyable breakfast. My husband had the cooked breakfast which was typical greasy spoon. It was edible.

If you like eating while surrounded by fruit flies dropping into your tea and landing on your plate then this is the perfect place.

If I could score zero I would totally messed up order sent hash brown not a hamburger and very rude on the phone

Ordered a cooked breakfast with chips. Chips was clearly fried in old oil. Food portion was big and quite tasty but a bit greasy. Milkshake not overly sweet but very thin more like milk.

Overpriced poor quality greasy spoon.

Best breakfast in Reading...I honestly don't have anything else to add 😋

There is no more to say when a 13years old finished everything in his dish, lovely place and tasty food, could be salty to others but for me is ok, only 4 stars due to the fry toast and that could be only thing you need to avoid on the full day breakfast menu, the fry toast has too much oil in it

Wouldn't recommend. Waited 40min since ordering to receive our food. Food was well below mediocre. Drinks were awful and price was expensive for what it was

Popped in for a wee bite to eat, use to come here when I was bunking school in 1985 lol.( that's how long it's been running) a lovely cafe, hasn't changed at all, great service, lovely people, food good for the price, great array of drinks, superb coffee, all at a price which can't be beaten any where in Reading! in the evening upstairs turns into a Nepalese restaurant.. Yummy yum

Refused to allow a service dog in their establishment 😡total discrimination against disability

One of my favourite places growing up in Reading. Great food, customer serrvice excellent and great atmosphere too.

Reasonable and fair value fried breakfast and perfect after a big night out in Reading. As mentioned elsewhere, quite greasy, especially the fried bread, which with "no substitutions" can't be swapped for toast, so probably ends up in the bin.

Breakfast was nice and good quality

Great friendly staff , very nice food cooked to perfection at a great price highly recommend the breakfasts.

Bit cold but proably a just eat deliver thing

Great service and food can be very busy at times but does not affect the quality of service your receive

Great spot for a quick Breakfast and coffee.

It is what it is, good value menu

The interior decor could do with some updating although the food was great and the service was good.

Nice place, loved the munchees breakfast especially the French toast! And lemonade great too!

How this place is still open is beyond me! The food was vile, the whole cafe needs a deep clean it's disgusting. We had order toasties which arrived wrong at first then they came again with the cheese half melted and the whole thing was tasteless, the lettuce was brown and we had ordered orange juice which was warm. Would never return to this place even if they paid me. So many much better cafes dotted all over reading please do not waste you're money and time eating here.

The food was disgraceful..bacon fried bread mushrooms swimming in grease .sausage cheap variety ..chips soft as though they had been left and recooked..£30.65 for 3 meals disgraceful

Perhaps a little finesse required,tea with bag left in and no where to put it.

A really excellent value-for-money place; a Nepalese run traditional English café in the town centre. High recommendation.

Good little cafe. Nice food Clean

Welcoming and busy cafe spread over two floors with a Nepalese twist. They do many variations of your traditional greasy spoon breakfast combinations alongside Nepalese dishes.

Great food and very good service. We both had a quarter pounder burger which was lovely and well priced. But £2.50 for a cup of tea or £2.75 for a mug is just too much. Please look at the costs and rationalise these.

Quaint independent builders caff stuck in the 80s. Food was cold and really bad quality, service was disdainful and don't believe their juices are juices or you'll be paying 3£ for a small glass of basics concentrate. I'd avoid, there are other independent options in the area

Good place for quick breakfast, good selection and quick service. Food was good too. A bit outdated the decoration but everything else is great.

A place in the midst of shopping, touring and visiting Reading, UK for complete meal

Cheap and easy breakfast. Price is perfect also. This place was busy but always available seats upstairs. Don't expect out of the world flavours

Awsome all-day breakfast!! Nice place, little outdated, but that's part of its charm personally. I would say very tight with a buggy, though.

All round a good place to go. Food was great and at a good price.

We all left happy having eaten two English breakfasts, a veggie English breakfast (including fried bread - delicious!), and a cheese and onion toastie. Would recommend.

Comfortable & nostalgic cafe , polite staff, excellent price. This is the "Balla" breakfast. Thoroughly enjoyed it! Latte was lush, too. Cheese toastie for little one, just right for him!

I came in here with my family. We were seated at a dirty table which I had to ask to be cleaned. When the breakfasts arrived they were over cooked, poorly delivered with cheap poor quality ingredients used. Sausages over cooked, poached eggs rock hard, fried eggs broken, bacon over cooked. Mushrooms were great which really was the only positive. I was also either overcharged or it is really expensive. I did challenge the guy at the checkout but he insisted it was correct but the strange way they do the payment could be easily fiddled. I eat in a lot of cafes and this is one I certainly won’t be eating in again.

Never answer any call, don't waste time!

Nice and affordable restaurant.

Million cold beans and a rock hard sausage that tastes like rubber, would recommmend!

Friendly staff. Good food. Very busy and a bit noisy

Always a good breakfast. If you like a good, cheapish fry up off a Formica table while sitting on a plastic chair this the one

Food didn’t arrive and when I tried to call the driver there was no answer!

Not the best breakfast sausages are a cheap meat, bacon is poor the toast was warm bread not toasted at all not worth the money

Price wise cheap food. Especially a big English breakfast. But with too many options on the menu to choose from, it became overpowering. Would take some items off the menu. But great prices.I’m tact before around 10 years back when they started the restaurant they used to offer lunch time buffet and I had there many times, however later they removed those options. The quality of the food at that time was much better now a little reduced still for the price it’s good.

I have to say, this is one of the great and budget restaurants that serves good quality food. It’s not too pricey and the food is above average. The only thing is the food is a bit oily to my liking, apart from that everything is worth the price.

Customer service was really good and the food is really tasty would recommend

I was really disappointed when I got my breakfast it was cold

Enjoyed Fish Chips Peas & Salad. Banana milkshake. Lovely. Freshly Cooked. Also Jacket Potato Cheese & Mushrooms. Lovely coffee.

Popped in for lunch. Good food and excellent service.

Food was nice but staff a bit grumpy.

Not that good for the money poor if I was to tell the truth

Always been a good place to get a proper English

The breakfast was cheap and delicious
