The best restaurants in West Berkshire South East

A splendid town centre pub. Two ales on tap which were well kept. Staff and locals friendly. A separate eating area is available in the opposite bar.

I ordered food at 1845 and was told it would arrive in 30 minutes - the food arrived more than 90 minutes later close to 2030. The order was incomplete and the food was cold. The price quoted was £59 - I then received a call saying there would be an extra charge for delivery of £3 as I was out of area (despite my village being listed on their website). When the delivery arrived the driver demanded that the £3 be paid in cash. When I check this morning the charge to my card was £69. I have therefore paid £13 more than quoted for an order that was incomplete, late and cold. Not good.

Last week we held a celebratory dinner at Miah's Pangbourne. There were 13 family members celebrating our daughter's and granddaughter's birthdays. The manager kindly arranged the tables so we all sat together and he had put up a couple of balloons, a birthday banner and sparkles strewn on the tables. A nice gesture. Together with our own balloons it created a festive atmosphere. We have eaten at Miah's before and always enjoyed their food. There was a unanimous vote of satisfaction and enjoyment of the various dishes ordered by each one. A small disappointment were the parathas which were rather leathery and a couple of the younger ones who ordered these could not eat them. We did not mention this at the time but having asked to take them home it became evident that they were definitely not made well. However the rest of the services was definitely a success. There were many sounds of ooohs and Aarhs as each tasted their dishes. The service was attentive and polite without being intrusive. Whilst the prices have increased since Covid-19 this makes it difficult to eat at restaurants more often but we hope to return to Miah's in the not too distant future. Thank you Miah's for a very enjoyable celebratory dinner. 👏👏👏. THE PRICES!!!

Went here with friends, food was excellent and very tasty. Service was good. Take your own drink which makes it a cheaper evening.

Poor food menu and slow service and terrible value for money. English cheese at £9 is two small bits of brie and some crackers. How can you get a cheese plate so wrong. Burger is poor and again how can you get a burger wrong. Such a shame as pub and beers nice.

food can freezing cold kids meal for £7:50 for a few chips and 4 nuggets?? won't be using again I would recommend to avoid this place

Perfect experience been going here for around a year now and every pint and curry I’ve had is spectacular. Would 100% recommend to anyone.

Having visited twice for two family birthday celebrations I wanted to just thank the staff for there hospitality and friendliness along with the excellent meals we all had and enjoyed. Excellent service nice the landlord takes time for a chat also. Portion sizes really generous so can’t wait to try Sunday roasts

Have been a few times and it’s been nice but today it seems the owner was around for the first time that I’ve seen him. His attitude was something I can’t explain, rude to say the least! Comes across very intimidating and only seems to favour his regulars… after speaking to other regulars they all said he’s not been around for a while and that he likes to push his weight around when he’s on site. Definitely will not be going again. Shame really….. typical Irish

Lovely before theatre drinks and meal. The food was cooked beautifully and wasn't over complicated. Staff were helpful and friendly.

Proper Thatcham local pub, always a warm welcome whether you are a local or just passing through.

Absolutely excellent stay we had with our dog Honey for two nights. The accommodation was spotless and comfortable and the breakfast was out of this world along with the staff who were superb I’d highly recommend this pub also for its food which was consistently ten out of ten 👍

Miserable staff. One guy had headphones in and was on his phone. He was rude to be honest, he was the one making the coffees this afternoon and everything seemed like a chore. Is he forgetting that he is being paid to be there?

Excellent service, polite staff and friendly service. Both reception and catering. Food was delicious 😋. Will definitely be back.

The choice on the menu was excellent, varied and authentic Thai. The food itself was without fault and everyone enjoyed their meals. The rating was marked down due to the reluctant service. It was bordering painful. The pub has seen better days too but this can be easily overlooked because the food is good. Next time will try takeaway so we don’t have to experience the lack lustre staff.
