Visited the pub on the way to watch London Irish play. Great and friendly atmosphere and fantastic food. Will be dropping in again next time I'm up to watch Irish.
Just spent weekend down in reading for Cheltenham races with the guys from this pub - never met any of them before they are an amazing bunch of people the pub is so welcoming and the bar staff just great - thank you all so much - hope to be back very soon.
1st time I’ve visited this pub, I came with a group of lads after the London Irish game, absolutely bonkers.
Such a great atmosphere especially on a Sunday night, nothing like what we have in Newbury.
I will be back!!
Great place fantastic atmosphere good food and beer
Great pub and friendly atmosphere with good food.
Cork girl living in UK ten years, experienced this bar yesterday and it was like been back home XXXXX loved it x
The Reading City Centre home of London Irish. Excellent Guinness. Good food. Rugby, GAA, football (if you want that sort of thing) available on various screens round the pub.
Excellent Irish pub in Reading that serves the best guiness in the area. Sports on all day and lovely staff.
Proper pub ,a real pub with locals and visitors, not a great selection of beer ,especially real ales ,but I guess as its an Irish pub a decent pint of Guiness . 1 of only 2 pubs in the town centre that is proper pub 👌
It’s an amazing Irish pub with lots of good drinks.
It's a hidden gem - authentic Irish bar, even had Taytos and Club Orange/Lemon!
I went to The Gateway for some of Ireland's Six Nations games. There was always a great, friendly atmosphere and was served up delicious, hearty homemade food. The women working behind the bar are some of the hardest working people I've ever seen. Will definitely be back for another visit soon.
Always a great night when we meet here.
Great Irish pub, very friendly staff and you can even play your own songs!
The only bad thing I can think of is that they don’t do HopHouse :(
I went to the gateway pub with friends to watch the England V France World Cup football match. Good friendly pub with televisions around the pub. Also Large Screen projector TV.
Okay when we got bored of the greyfair, we went here and it was Amazing!!!! The atmosphere was great!!!!! The male bartender was the most unfriendly I've ever seen in this UK but his female bartender made up for that thank God!!! I enjoyed myself here. It was more alive. 😁😁😃
Great pub. Good atmosphere, staff is very nice, they check up on you, if you've got plenty to drink, so you'll never go thirsty. Plenty of TV screens, to watch all your favorite games. Unfortunately fully booked today, so I'll swing by tomorrow again.
Solid, traditional Irish pub a short walk off Friar Street with loads of TVs for all lines of sight showing sport. Probably the best Guinness in town. Friendly landlord running good Covid measures and unbelievably attentive table service which has you struggling to maintain an empty glass. Didn't try food but saw plenty of filling pub grub being served to happy customers. If you're looking for a sports bar consider this.
Proper boozer and Irish bar. Welcoming bar staff. Had a great time.
Lovely Guinness, staff are friendly and the atmosphere is great.
Friendly landlord and staff. Very welcoming - not expensive and we got complimentary plates of chips while watching the rugby. Clean and tidy and for a town centre pub it was more like a local. Worth a visit.
The staff are lovely and friendly, it's a short walk from Reading Station! We use it when we have London Irish home Rugby days at weekends!! The food is great, you can order full English or similar in sarnies till 12, then they have lunch menu, including roasts on Sunday!! It's all reasonably priced and you get a lot!!!!!! This is a Sports pub, but anyone is welcome!!!
Very friendly place to visit great atmosphere
Decent bar with a good atmosphere. Plenty of screens for sporting events, and a relaxed feel. The Guinness was fine, but I think that the London Pride was just starting to go off. Nevertheless, I would come back.
Good place for pint of Guinness. Great atmosphere friendly staff and family bar. Great place to watch sport on Wide TVs. Live music good time to be had here. Nice original good soakage grub here too nice with a cold one.
