Picnic Foods

Yum! All of their homemade bakes are excellent. Coffees are good too. Outdoor seating on the pedestrianised street in-front makes me feel like I'm on the Continent. Good salads. Food can be taken to go (for a picnic of course!). Strongly recommend for a treat off the high street

Reading has a decent number of good independents, if you’re prepared to look a little bit. This is certainly one of them! Skip Starbucks/Costa etc and go here! Excellent cappuccino and the porridge I had this morning was really delicious. Good portion size and full of nuts/fruit. Would definitely recommend!

Great café with happy, friendly staff. Well worth ignoring all the chain coffee shops that surrounding it and going to a decent independently run business. I had the middle eastern chicken salad box which was delicious and a really generous sized portion. Great selection of home made cakes
