All breakfast dishes such as Bill's breakfast (s), eggs florentine and eggs royale are really good! Blueberry pancakes were okay but could use more syrup . The lovely outdoor seating is a plus!

Alex Martin

Great breakfast / brunch / lunch venue. Excellent food, great friendly and swift service. The eggs and salmon and the classic burger are the best you will get in Reading! Well worth a visit.

Marina

Perfect veggie breakfast : poached eggs , guacamole (kind of guacamole , but still lovely!) and sweet chili hummus on toast . Win!

Nataly Guryanova

Went to Bill's for the first time on Saturday, it won't be the last - fast friendly service , food was delicious, pricing was good. Went away a happy girl :-). Thank you!!

Steve Morris

Breakfast is great with service just as good. Nice decor - homely 'shabby chic meets rustic charm' feel adds to the warmth of the whole experience.

Liz Whitehead-Davies

Best Burger I have had in a long time and can tell you from a previous visit the fish finger sandwich is yummy. Can't wait for them to open in Newbury.

Emily Brown

Nice casual restaurant . The pink lemonade is amazing! The chicken Caesar salad is also pretty decent!

Amazing food. The sirloin stake is incredibly delicious! Also, try out the smoothies/juice, nice and fresh.

My new favourite spot for brunch . Great food, relaxed atmosphere .

Try the veggie breakfast if you're there before 12. Even if you're not veggie ! Add bubble & squeak . Lovely.

David Cobb

Great food as ever but contrary to the Apple website they don't take Apple Pay.

Zofia Skrakowski

Cheapest coffee to go in town . Always served with a smile. Free croissant for early birds- what more could you want?

Yuki Mac

Was really good lunch and awesome service. Will go back there for sure.

Granola and chocolate brownie milkshake !

Gemma Webb

Great food n ice atmosphere

Iain Cottingham

Good range of food on the menu, tables are fairly well attacked together though.

David Cobb

Fish pie is very good!

Gilly Thorne

Limited vegan options but still a few and will do simple changes to cater if you ask

Tim Jennings

Guilty pleasure is a Saturday breakfast ... Get here before 10.30 to avoid the Range Rover Brunch set who invade after 12.00

Starskreem T

Pretty standard hipster-type restaurant . Has a separate, decent gluten-free menu. Service isn't amazing.

Gordon Johnson

Try it. You'll not be disappointed ☺

Acqua Frizzante

Awesome mezze plate for sharing

P. Warnke

You like it traditional? Go for scones , clotted cream & strawberry jam ! Delicious!

Martin Franklin

Bills own beer is great real ale style and the Fish Finger sandwich always hits the spot

Sarah Marzuki

Friendliest staff and delicious food!

Susannah Lowe

Really good scrambled eggs !

David Cobb

Free wifi as well here. Makes it easy to check in!

Isabel Alves

Awesomeness in a plate!

Matt Girling

Great coffee , but don't ask for syrup - "we're not Costa or Starbucks" I was told.

Marco Orlando

Sirloin steak is very good

Vicki Senior

The Hedgerow fizz is delicious, much better than the fruit Bellini that tastes flat.

Jason Hopkins

Good start bad service finish. I don't mind leaving a tip. However, what I hate is a waitress who thinks she can keep all your change.

Simon K

Service isn't very good, food was pretty bad. Very soggy ciabatta underneath a eggs benedict whose bacon was undercooked and eggs overdone. Quality fine for a greasy spoon but not for this venue.

Pavlína Glosová

Yummy French toast !

Prema Lucas

Make sure the lovely Jess is serving you - she's an angel! :-)
