Drinking in Reading

WSS

Whereabouts?

I understand that there is a bus that ships people from the station to the ground but what are the drinking possibilities?

there are about 3-4 pubs within 30yrds of the station.

MCS

I reckon call either one pub, or all in the ground in the concoarse!

we're getting to reading at 1 though, and i doubt they sell vodka, and if i drink beer i'll go doolally?!

I am up for going to a pub for an hour then making our way to the ground for 2?

i think les, buckshee, pickering, lee, inspector, rothko, 04 mcs, stanmore, ketman will be on our train too and maybe some others?

There's loads of choice.

Up the hill from the station, there's a couple of bars on the left.... one used to be Red Square but not sure if it's there anymore. At the top of that hill is a Pitcher and Piano. Then turning left at the top of the hill you're into Friar St.... Walkabout, Yates and another bar on your left hand side....

Oh, and here's a website that lists the pubs....
