Fantastic Human being

Upon arrival of said establishment, which I typically stroll to daily, I was brutally distraught to discover that my student card was not functioning on the apparatus for my said meal. “EJ/EG” got straight on it, swiftly and with determination she sorted the issue. My friend Foodpey who’s also a respected member of the food review community was also dealt with and served a decent meal. I have to say with regret that some of the staff lack attention and aptitude however I cannot fault the passion of the place. Particularly the incredibly kind chef team who always serve every meal with a smile.Thank you “EJ/EG”Will be returning soon

Corporeal Foodpey may I have your attention. This establishment is solid, some staff lack proper skills to maintain the integrity and high level of proper merit. However the management and chef team are considerably up to par.

This was chilling on the table for quite a while even when I arrived, it was really nasty and off putting. My friend had to remove it from the table herself, a server walked past like four times and didn’t bother removing it. Also, the person taking my order had a very odd attitude, he didn’t finish taking our order and told someone to take over, the person also didn’t finish taking our order (I didn’t order a drink yet) and gave me the wrong drink and when I saw and told him, he tried to charge me? Also what are the rules on drinks?? The first time I went, I was able to get a drink with my meal plan but later I could only get a hot drink and they tried to charge me for juice with my meal…maybe I’m in the wrong idk but it was a very stressful experience overall as my friend and I had to eat our food on a dirty table ☺️☺️☺️ the ribs were flavourless and the chicken burger was so dry and tasteless I could only eat half of it before I tapped out

Generic student bar, rather predictable beers on tap, interior is functional, uninspiring and dull.

In these strange covid times I feel sorry for bars and pubs who have to keep up with a huge list of regulations and try and operate a normal business and keep some kind of buzz around. The manager of this place was really nice and friendly. It is a place for students mainly and serves some food such as burgers and salads.They have quite a big outdoor seating area that backs onto the Reading University buildings and gardens, some of which are hidden beauties. There are screens indoors to watch sport on and they are normally nice and accomodating about changing the channels to what sport is on. It is a sizeable place and hopefully it becomes busier as restrictions end

The dairy is a nice place to hangout. But the food sometimes is not fresh. Sometimes due to the lack of windows it feels clos to phobic.

I have eaten here the last 4 nights as I am visiting a family member in the hospital. They have one food choice a day and a vegan alternative and every meal has been excellent and served quickly. They have a nice selection of drinks including wines and local IPAs. TVs all around the place and friendly staff that always chat to you. Perfect venue for anyone visiting the hospital for the day for food and a bit of a break. The other plus is it is cheap as it is a student bar. Highly recommended.

The Dairy is located on the London Road Campus of the University of Reading. It’s quite a walk from the main campus but the food here is really good! During peak hours the food takes a lot of time to be served but it’s worth the wait! They have limited options for food but it’s nice that it’s freshly made to order and not like the other places on campus where a sort of buffet system is followed. The Dairy gets very lively at night!
