The Cottage Inn in West Berkshire

4 of us went for Sunday lunch asked for regular size it was a very good size well cooked and HOT staff were very friendly and helpful definitely will be returning 😀

We called in for lunch after a rainy run and were made to feel very welcome. Lunch was plentiful, delicious and very reasonably priced. I’d 100% come back.

Fantastic service,very efficient,wide variety of food.and reasonable priced,great value for your money.defentley go back again and would recommend the cottage.

Just been for dinner and we all chose the homemade pies. A proper pie filled to the brim and not a soggy bottom in sight! I’d definitely return. All topped off with friendly staff.

Spot-on country pub with a field and animals to let the kids off the leash’. Gary and the team (especially if Nigel is Chef) make your pib meal, social meeting or quick bevvy an absolute delight. Thanks.

Unreliable opening times, went three times when it said they were open. Closed every time. Need to either update their Google opening hours or answer the phone!

Lovely friendly pub, Gary and his team are fab ☺️☺️

Booked a table for us for a 30th birthday with several kids and family members The staff were so welcoming and friendly and the food fantastic value and tasted fantastic We then enjoyed the rest of the afternoon in the back garden where the kids played on the climbing frame and looked at the animals Can’t wait to go back again Thank you

Great Sunday lunch, brilliant service and fantastic value. Can’t go wrong. Gary and the team are very welcoming. Can’t recommend it highly enough.

Recently had an absolutely superb Sunday afternoon roast at the Cottage Inn. The pub has plenty of space, having a standard bar area for drinking, an inside area for meals, and a large covered attached marqee at the rear, linked by a conservatory. Service is excellent. It's suitable for families, with the rear area of the marquee being particularly geared out for kids, and if the weather is nice, there is also animals behind the car park!

Whent hear for a birthday meal. Great food and great service

Very nice pub, very friendly. Food is excellent I had the chicken curry, probably the best curry I've ever tasted.....

Great little pub. Food always cooked perfectly. Staff are very attentive.

Went yesterday for lunch. Everything was fantastic as usual. Will definately be back!

Very good , good beer good food great atmosphere will be going back. Have just returned home from visit cottage inn lovely meal with pudding £10 can't beat it , come on let's support the lovely countryside pubs, we don't want them to disappear, log fire magic, thank you see you again soon.

Lovely meal and pleasent staff good family experience

Outstanding food always a pleasure to visit value for money very friendly service sad too be leaving area

My local pub for over 12 years - they have never failed to impress! When it comes down to their bonfire nights, drinks, food and service, this pub really does have it all. For families looking to dine here, there is a large facility out back for children with a climbing frame and also a small farm with goats, chickens, rabbits and more. This pub has so much to offer!!!

Brilliant customer service. The food was lovely and not over priced. Good selection on the menu. Definitely will go back.

Terrific family pub with a nice atmosphere. We were all impressed with the food, and the kids loved the play area and animals. Made my wife’s birthday extra special. We’ll be back soon!

Delicious little boozer with brilliant activities for kids. My only grumble was the grub but the scenery and atmosphere made up for it

Lovely pub, good food and great outdoors area! Dog friendly too.

Excellent setting for a visit with children- except, there is no baby change facility. The toddler we came with loved the play equipment and the goats and chicks, there was plenty of shelter from both sun and the sudden hailstorm! It was well worth a visit and next time we'll try the food too. Changing facilities aside, a great family pub!

We have been many times and often take family or friends with us. It's always a warm welcome, good service and tasty food.

Had a great time. People are friendly. Food is amazing. Great facilities for children. Does need a changing room for babies though

Great Food.superb. Nice gardens. Petting farm. Easy parking.

A great night out to see some live music.

Came here today for Mother’s Day, have been coming here for years and have always left happy - until today. Had a roast chicken and all was fine except the chicken which was dry and inedible. I commented on this very discreetly and politely to the lady behind the bar who responded in a manner which was nasty and condescending, saying she had cut into the chicken and deemed it to be fine as nobody else had complained. The chicken had clearly not been freshly cooked and was difficult to cut in to. Was really surprised as service here is usually great so was disappointed to be met with such a rude response, almost as if the employee thought I was lying so tried to catch me out as if I was a child. To add insult to injury she took only £2 off the bill, the roast dinner itself was nearly £15 and bill as a whole £75. Shame as I’ve recommended this to a lot of people and been coming for years. Will not be continuing to do so, or returning here.

We have been going to the cottage for several years and the service and food has always been great. My son and daughter took me there for Mother’s day lunch. Three of us had a good meal but my daughter’s chicken was not. At no time during the meal did anyone ask us how our meal was or if we needed more drinks! When they came to clear the plates my husband mentioned my daughter wasn’t happy with her chicken, she asked if she wanted something else but by that time we had all finished our meals. My daughter went to pay for the meal and mentioned the chicken and was “I cut into in in the kitchen and it was fine and no-one else has complained.”. It was a chicken breast! My young was very discreet in her complaint, but was made to feel that she was making it up. I myself could not cut into the chicken easy and if it had been good my husband would have eaten it. I feel customer service was not good she humiliated my daughter when she was just telling the truth. A shame as was a very good pub for a long while and food was good, but you don’t argue with a customer!! However young or old

We had a lovely meal at The Cottage Inn. The food was properly home cooked bad very tasty! We will be going back again at some point!

Lovely atmosphere, friendly service great food

Food good service good, what more could you ask for.

Wow just been for a meal here what can I say it was fantastic service was great to will define be going back

Really lovely pub with friendly staff and great food. Had the steak and ale pie and would definitely recommend it. Friends had the chicken pie, which also looked great. Perfect after a walk on the common.

An excellent tasty meal, great service, friendly staff. Recommended.

Great beer, friendly staff and fellow patrons. In an area blessed with many great pubs the Cottage is one of my favourites and keeps me coming back. Also great for watching sport.

Nice people lovely food and friendly service

Nice location, great service and food. Well worth the money

We thought we would try here out seeing as the reviews are so great! And it looked lovely from pictures, never been so disappointed in a place, the food took a very long time to come out and when it did the burgers were RAW! Uncooked! Do not eat here it’s not safe. ( if your ordering the beef burgers) it wasn’t until I took a bite that I noticed all the need mince was red, cold and RAW. We all had awful tummy’s after eating here.

Fantastic pub, great beers and really good food

Last Saturday of the month at lunchtime is Classic Saturdays. Couple of dozen cars and a few bikes and scooters there today. Always worth a visit.

Great food great place for the kids play park and animals

Amazing food and amazing people

Kids friendly pub. The outside is really good with a small playground, goats, bunnies and lots of green space to run and play, kids love it. Food was good and not expensive.

Really lovely family friendly restaurant. Child's portions are MASSIVE (i should have ordered one for my two). Food was tasty. Clear allergen menu and lovely attentive staff. Would definitely go again. Theres a kids playground/field and small animals just outside of the pub. Theres also a small pub garden. Can highly recommend. Only slight negative was that there was no baby change facilities in the ladies bathroom.

Came for mothers day yesterday, no complaints from anyone, thoroughly enjoyed our Food! Waitresses were very hard working and very attentive. Puddings were delicious! Kids loved playing in the field/play equipment after and seeing the animals. We will be back! Thankyou

Just had my wife's birthday lunch at the Cottage Inn and the lovely staff were very professional, quick and efficient preparing and serving thirty one lunches and puddings. In addition they were most welcoming and polite. Would highly recommend the Cottage Inn for either a lunch for two or a party. Really great place to visit. Thank you

Gorgeous country pub for all the family. Make a reservation if you want to eat as the restaurant gets booked up! Great outdoor area for kids including climbing frames, goats and bunnies and space for football fans in the bar area. Gary and his friendly staff will make you feel at home!
