On my way to London I got off the bus and noticed this colourful place. Decided to do what I love to do, just get in for a pint of Magners. This place has been a treat! Especially thanks to 'Nobody's Baby' and a sweet, bar guy Adam. Few hours with yous made my day. What else can I say. If you don't like happy people, this place isn't for you. Performance at the highest level, even Ru Paul would love to have 'Nobody's Baby' on board! See you sometime again. All the best.
An excellent vibe all days, especially Friday night's and the weekends. Bar staff are brilliant along with the choice of drinks available. Well worth a visit and a few bevvies!

Full, happy, wellcoming pub. Drinks reasonably priced, good entertainment. There are stairs to get in but only 3. We went on a Saturday night so it was really really packed but everyone was very polite at moving so I could through.
Great pub with tasty food, good beers, and a warm welcome. Always worth popping in on Thursday and Sunday for an interesting, varied, karaoke. Friday and Saturday nights are good for a dance along with the DJ's.
I would recommend the food to anyone, especially the specials and with discounted premium gins on Tuesday and half price champagne on Wednesday, you cannot go wrong.
It no longer has a pool table and doesn't show sports, so if that's what you are looking for, then this isn't the bar for you.
Great place, friendly, reasonably priced. Always make you feel like one of the family.
Full disclosure: My husband and I had a Groupon deal for this visit.
First up, the positives: The guy behind the bar was really lovely, the decor is pretty nice, and the pizza is AMAZING. Their food prices are really reasonable from what I saw, and the other dishes I spotted going out to other tables looked pretty great too.
Now (my personal) negatives: The beer selection on tap is pretty standard, I prefer to see more ales, craft beers and interesting/different drink options. It's also not overly clear that they serve food at all - there are no menus on the tables, for example - it just looks like a regular pub. Also the music was super basic pop/EDM which is really not my style, I assume they play other stuff on different nights.
I do need to reiterate as my finish though, that the pizza was REALLY GOOD - 9.5/10 for the pizza alone

Had possibly the best night I've ever had. It's very difficult to find a place where as a non drinker, you can still have a cracking time with no issues. Went to the Blagrave Arms last night (Thursday) to celebrate my birthday with some karaoke and I've never experienced such amazing hospitality anywhere, the staff were all incredibly friendly, were happy to get involved on the karaoke too! Especially the lady called Sarah (If i remember right) who i think was the manager in at the time or landlady. She was constantly making sure and checking to see if I was having a good time and all the staff made us all feel very very welcome. The karaoke drink deals were very good and overall the prices were great, the atmosphere in there was second to none even on the hottest day of the year so far. All staff on that night were an absolute pleasure and full of smiles and laughs which you dont find often in bars and pubs, especially in Reading. If you want a sing song with a great atmosphere, I cannot reccomend Blagrave Arms enough!
Nice place to go to if you know someone, not a very large place, but a nice night out. They have karaoke on Thursday and Sunday evenings and also have other events on during the days. It had been packed everytime I have been there. This is a gay/gay friendly establishment, so maybe not for all.
Bingo was great fun with Wilma on Sunday night. Can't wait for next month. Lovely bar staff and felt very safe and comfortable with their covid measures in place
Friendly staff, great atmosphere, good location and decent prices. Could benefit from more seating.
I would ignore the 6 month review, fantastic place with the greatest staff. As always alot of the same staff from wynford and Granby. Both closed down. You'd never meet such an understanding bunch of barman and needless to say helpful.
The nasty yelper must of had knickers in twist when visiting.
