Quite disappointed for today Sunday roast. The potatoes and parsnips was soooooo over cooked. You…read morecannot put your knife through it. It is such a shame as the food was good 4 years ago. We did say something to the waitress and she was very apologetic. Then manager came over apologised again and asked if there is anything wrong with the beef. We said it was the veg mainly. The beef was ok but not great. They gave us some free side dishes and desserts. I must say the building and the services were very good. However the chef and food really let this place down. I saw most people left out their veg on their plate when I left. My partner doesn't normally complain about food. So it must be quite bad. You can't cook the potatoes right what's left for a Sunday roast?! It's £20 for the roast so there should be some expectations to it. I gave 2 stars only because the service was good and the complimentary gesture. Otherwise 1 star!

I've been to this Bel and The Dragon (and the one in Godalming) a number of times and have always…read morehad a good time and good food. The service and general feel of the place is relaxed and friendly, the menu is largely British in theme and tends to change with the season. They usually have some seasonal game on the menu which I like, their wood pigeon has been excellent the couple of times I've had it. Bel and The Dragons tend to be in interesting buildings and this one is no exception. They renovated the boat house specifically for the restaurant and it's a great setting (albeit not quite as interesting as the Godalming one which is in an old Church). Probably my favourite restaurant in Reading.

Excellent prices for takeaway- a huge selection of pies (and some quiche!). If you are able, have lunch/dinner at the restaurant. You'll feel as if you've been transported back in time. It's friendly and homey- très rustique. The menu is simple and sparse, but with the quantity of pies on offer, what more do you need? Oh, and there's a full bar! I added a side of ratatouille to my meal and was not disappointed! What are you waiting for! Go get yourself a pie, or 4!!

Do not be surprised that I'm giving it 5-stars for the first review. I loved my food here…read more I was back in the UK for my graduation and my parents were staying at the Holiday Inn where this restaurant is located and so we went here for a spot of lunch. Absolutely delicious. When we entered it was quite noisy as a conference group was just finishing up but before we knew it they had left and it was quiet. Like most restaurants in the UK these days the wait-staff is mostly foreign and although they might have a little trouble understanding you, patience is due; they are friendly and absolutely fabulous at what they do. The menu is nice with a good range of options. They gave us a selection of breads to start, all excellent (I was hungry so I tried them all) and our appetizers followed shortly. To start I had the scallops, moist, a good size and lovely. For my main meal I had the "Pork 2-ways". Which was really Pork 4 ways. It included medallions of tenderloin, pork belly, bacon and crackling over a bed of pasta (check out the picture I uploaded). Delicious, very filling to the point that if you ever have a last pork meal ever, this should be it. It is on the pricier side but this restaurant isn't pretending to be pricey like some might do. Give it a try if you want a nice meal out. Bonus: clean bathrooms are always a plus.

Cerise also has a little court yard garden at the back of the restaurant with a water feature, and there is nothing more relaxing after a hard days work than sitting out there listening to the water with a perfectly made drink!
