Genuinely some of the best food I've ever had - the salmon pasty was made of the flakiest, butteriest pastry I've ever eaten, filled with a generous amount of salmon and a lovely creamy sauce (dill I think?). Crab pasties looked lovely - I didn't have one, but those I was with did and said they were incredible, looked lovely even to me as someone who doesn't like seafood very much! Seating is limited but has a nice view of Steephill Cove, although you could also probably just leave and find a pretty spot to sit/.
Wow what a delight. We booked here based on the good reviews and they are spot on. The staff are friendly and helpful and love to explain the menu items. The food was outstanding and we all agreed the best we have tasted. The menu isn't extensive and the items are not your run of the mill Indian fare (there is a butter chicken). This is a gastronomic experience. It is not the cheapest but worth every penny. That you for a lovely evening.
We’ve eaten here a few times now, great place and atmosphere with delicious food and friendly staff. My husband is coeliac and eating out isn’t always easy but they had a separate gluten free menu with a good choice and the staff were very knowledgeable. He said the Thai red curry was superb as was my burger.
So rare to get a good place to eat in Reading but this place is lovely, food is tasty. Staff were really good and so helpful and friendly. The interior decor is very nice and rustic, lovely atmosphere. Top marks to all at The Shed, keep doing what you're going.
Really disappointed to find the restaurant closed after booking the same day online. The sign in the window said due to a technical issue they were closed for a few days, but they should have also closed the booking system and we wouldnt have wasted our time driving to Pangbourne
