The Lyndhurst 88 Queen's Road, Reading RG1 4DG

"I was pleasantly surprised by the culinary delights that were served. The food was nothing short of luscious, bursting with vibrant flavors that truly tantalized my taste buds. Although the menu was not extensive, it certainly did not lack in variety. I found myself delighting in many dishes that were skillfully prepared with the fresh fish and seafood. The Karaage chicken was an impeccable choice for an appetizer or as a satisfying option to enjoy between courses. As a self-proclaimed connoisseur of Mexican cuisine, I was skeptical when I saw the Al Pastor taco on the menu, but upon trying it, I must admit that it was surprisingly authentic in taste and presentation. The Hake with mussels was another culinary masterpiece. The dish was cooked to perfection and accompanied by a sauce that was both flavorful and well-balanced. Dessert did not disappoint either, as the strawberry tart was an exquisite finale to an already remarkable meal. The service provided by the staff was impeccable, and the selection of beverages was impressive. In conclusion, this establishment is without a doubt a must-visit destination for anyone who desires delicous food"

"We came here for our sport club Christmas meal and were very impressed with the experience we received. From past history I know that restaurant Christmas meals can often be a bit of a throwaway compared to the usual menu but the Lyndhurst was a strong exception to this. The portions were excellent, the food was delicious and we loved the little touches that the Lyndhurst added for us. A superb venue for our Christmas meal and we look forward to returning during 2023."

"The food here is superb and good portion sizes (we had the katsu burger and tacos). Nice selection of cocktails and other drinks. Ukranian waitress (sorry didn't get her name) that served us was very friendly and attentive. Five Stars."

"This was out second visit and it most certainly would not be our last. We didn’t have a reservation but we were welcomed nonetheless by very friendly and welcoming staff. We had the salt and pepper squid and chicken croquettes as our starters; pork belly roast and hake for mains. The food was so delicious and the portions quite generous. Already planning our next visit, curry night next!"

"I have been to the Lyndhurst many times, and would 100% recommend it. The food is brilliant and completely unexpected from a roadside traditional looking pub. I've taken friends, family and my partner. The staff are lovely and even though I now live over half an hour away, I try to come back. Burger and curry nights are lovely, and wonderful value. We went here for Christmas dinner and it was great, best roast in reading!"
