Good place, the ambience was nice and the food was okay. I found one thing that's not up to my imagination was the side dish I got when I ordered Chicken Biryani. I got Sambar as side dish. As an Indian, I haven't had Sambar as side dish for any Biryani. Usually it's served with curd.

This pub turned restaurant requires a little spruce up but otherwise service is polite and welcoming and the food smells delicious! We may give it a try next time as it seems a hidden gem. On this occasion (& on another several years ago!) we were just passing and stopped by for refreshments.

For an historic traditional pub out of town serving curry this good is an absolute treat! Combining Indian, Bangladeshi & Nepalese dishes in a relaxed pub and dining space, and a sky sports, darts, pool room on the other side of the bar, The Gun has everything covered. Clean non-oily food presented on spotless white crockery by excellent attentive staff. The Gun is worth a visit. Family friendly, garden in the summer, and an extensive menu for even the most critical curry connoisseur. Love it.

If you want friendly customer service, great curry and a lovely evening out, here is the place to come, we popped next door for a pint at the ‘locals’ snooker bar afterwards. The owner is very welcoming and polite. Also there is a great beer garden for summer, full of flowers.

Good old pub feel with a public bar one side and restaurant the other. Great staff working hard to cater for all tastes. Bit of a wait when we arrived at 8 but food was excellent when it did arrive. Fair prices and takeaway options too.

A half decent Indian in the edge of Newbury. Food has been good on each visit, staff are a mixed bag. Meal for two about seventy sovs with a couple of lagers and a large of red for the missus.

Love coming to this pub. Whether you want a nice pint with a few friends or have some delicious food. This place can offer both. Side bar has lovely atmosphere with a half decent pool table. Mai. Restaurant is well laid out. Food always top notch. Love what you guys are doing and keep up the high standards you've set yourselves. 👌

We just had a lovely meal here and the atmosphere was very relaxed and enjoyable. We had a very pleasant drink in their spacious and sunny pub garden whilst waiting for the table we booked (We got there ahead of time to enjoy this). The courses were superb, tasty and served over a leisurely amount of time so we did not feel rushed and could enjoy all the lovely food on offer. Attentive waiters, but never intrusive or pushy (as some can be in other establishments). Great food, great atmosphere and lovely staff. Highly recommended. Well done on tonight guys ;)

Me and my wife have been to a LOT of Indian Restaurants over the years and we can confidently say this is easily one of the best we've had, if not THE best. Prompt and efficient service, decent prices. The food itself was delicious - we went for Poppadoms, Mixed Starter, Jalfrezi, Lamb Tikka Massala, Pilau Rice and Keema Naan plus a few drinks. The fact its attached to a bar shouldn't put anyone off, the two are separated in the middle (and supported by a wrap-around bar) - it just means you get an expanded selection of drinks you wouldn't find at another Indian restaurant! Our bill came to £69 which we thought was very reasonable. If we're ever in the area again we'd go back, without a doubt.

Friendly people and good indian food, decor and ambiance lets it down, they could very easily make the place look nicer, lower the lighting etc. As it is its a regular basic pub that offers Indian food, good but could be great with a little effort.

The pub still operates but the restaurant menu was Indian food. Had one excellent meal there but it got a very poor hygiene rating due to unacceptable food storage among other things. Not sure if the kitchen has reopened since the inspection. I would urge caution.

Reviewed for the curry house side, not the pub. Great curry, a bit of a hidden gem for curry in Newbury as you are unlikely to search for it when looking for a curry. However, it is worth the short drive out of Newbury town centre. Lose a star as the wait for food can be a little prolonged; not too excessive and gives time for good chat, but on the flip side lends credence to the food being prepared fresh. Can get busy, so would suggest booking on popular nights, especially if more than 2 people. For Chicken Momo starter followed by Lamb Acahri, Chicken Tikka Masala, 1 Mushroom rice and 1 Sag Aloo with a pint of coke and small wine, you're looking at £38

We went in and were able to talk. It was a bit rough, but that could be fine. The beer was extremely stale, and after 5 mins they cranked up the music, even though it was empty so that we couldn't talk. I would go in to town if I wanted a noisy, stale beer, pub. Disappointing.

Average food, average cost in a somewhat unusual setting of a slightly shabby pub. The service was poor and very slow. It appeared that lots of takeaways were being ordered and I can only presume that these were given priority over those eating in. We won't return.

Went here as it has good reviews for Indian food, found it very much as a Indian in a pub (which it is!) So very crowded and noisy with tables in the bar area, anyhow the food was fairly quickly served and tasty, recommended if you're out for a drink and a Indian.

I met three friends here for dinner earlier today. Having ordered at the bar we moved into the restaurant for dinner. initially we were served by a very polite, helpful waitress, however she finished work and a gentleman then cleared the plates from our main course. There was no attempt at conversation nor any offer of more drinks, dessert or coffee. After waiting for about 15 mins we then asked if we could order desserts and were told the kitchen was closed (21.01), no apologies just 'the kitchen is all locked up', ok so could we have some coffee we asked 'yes you can get it from the bar'. This is our second visit and the first was very similar we returned in the hope we had just caught him on a 'bad day' - obviously not and this unhelpful attitude it the norm!!

Very authentic, fresh and tasty Thai food! My partner has traveled extensively in the far east and I am very fond of Asian cuisine so when we relocated to Reading two years ago one target was to find a good Thai. This was the first time we have been to The Turners Arms and we will be back! We started with the mixed starter for two which is an excellent selection of traditional Thai starters, all very tasty and hard to find any fault. The mains were the Duck special and the Pad Kraphaw, also with duck. Both dishes were mild in terms of heat but very flavoursome, from the freshness of the vegetables and distinct flavours in the dish it is obvious these were cooked fresh to order. Great old pub surroundings and we will look forward to visiting again when the fire is lit as that would perfect the cozy pub atmosphere.
