"Had a delicious meal at Burghfield Spices, in between Reading and Tadley last night, we dined at 6pm and the food was swiftly presented to us, we had popodums, Chicken Korai, Chicken Shashlik, veg curry and Pilau Rice! What a great combination! Compliments to the chef! Will definitly be back! Thank you!"

"I was in the opposite for work and thought for an early dinner at 17:30. the special of the day was deenbrust, with celestial jus, tender stiel broccoli, speck brow and gratincartoffeln. the meal was really beautifully presented. the combinations were great, but everything needed only a little more season (other than 5 stars would have been) the escape was very nicely cooked as anything else was. the experience was great, the service staff was beautiful and attentive. the gastropub is located in such a picturesque area, and the terrace is unbeatable. I wish I had lived more closely when I visited this place! P.S: the interior decoration is worthwhile in itself – classic country pub aesthetics."

"Visited today for lunch and probably wouldn't rush back although I'm aware there's recently been a change in management so maybe a few teething troubles. Messaged via their Facebook page to book a table, no response. Never was a problem in the past. The pub was very cold with no heating at all so we had to keep our coats on. Several tables near us commented the same and all sat with coats on. The coffee machine was out of order so only instant available, which wasn't pleasant. We waited a long time for someone to come and take our food order, in the end I went and found someone. Two of us wanted the steak ale pie. Only then were we told it wasn't available. The chap said we should've been told when we were given the menus, well it was him that gave them to us! With that he said he'd give us a few minutes to choose something else and walked away. He didn't come back so I had to go and ask to place our order again. At no point did anyone ask if we had any food allergies, which I thought was a requirement these days? The food was really good, credit to the chef; it was well cooked, well presented, large portions and very tasty. We did notice that two other tables waited a very long time for their food and had to chase it up, so glad we ordered when we did. We would have stayed longer and had a dessert but it was so cold we couldn't relax and enjoy it. We were next to radiator and we did ask one of the waiters if it was possible to turn it on and he said he'd see what he could do, which was nothing as it remained stone cold! When our plates were taken we asked for the bill, but it didn't arrive. Eventually a young lady arrived with the card machine and asked us to pay, which we said we'd be delighted to do once we received our bill! When we left we walked past 3 different members of staff, all of whom had waited on our table at some point during our visit. Not one of them made an effort to say thank you or goodbye. There was no warm ambiance or friendly feeling in the pub, it felt cold (literally) and unwelcoming. I also felt that a couple of members of staff waiting on tables looked rather scruffy, none of them wore a logo'd t-shirt which I feel the staff should do as they're representing the pub or brewery. It was difficult to distinguish the staff from the customers!"

"We booked a table for 14.00pm and did not receive our meal until 15.15pm. A member of staff did not even come and ask if our meals were satisfactory. We also ordered some side orders but these did not arrive but they still tried to charge us for them. When we went to pay our bill a male member of staff was abrupt and rude he just said do you want to pay did not even say thank you or good bye turned back and carried on serving customers. I have been here on numerous occasions but after todays experience will not be coming back. Price per person: £20–30 Food: 4 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1"

"Dropped in for lunch on a Sunday and was very pleasantly surprised by how good the food was. Very generous and extremely well prepared. Great value for money too. The staff were friendly and the pub and garden has a nice relaxed/casual atmosphere. Would recommend as a great place for Sunday roasts with the family"
