Blagrave Arms - Reading United Kingdom

The bar staff was absolutely fabulous apart from an older blonde woman who took ages to serve me when there was no one at all, at the bar. She just stood there vaping and doing shots which is very unprofessional. When she did eventually serve me she was very Blunt and very rude and I have been to this venue once a week for the last 6 weeks and she has been the same. I don’t understand how she has a job here. Awful woman.

Loved it apart from got told there is a dress code. When ne we stayed anywhere else. Didn’t know until told.

It seemed like a fun place to start with, although the drag artist was awful, but the staff took our drinks away when we were up dancing. This included part of a bottle of wine. There was no reason for this. The owner is extremely objectionable and unpleasant. We won't be back.

Dirty, tacky and horrible staff. So tonight, I was harassed, tormented, had a drink poured over my head by an ex staff member, almost glassed by a customer and still, i was seen as the problem and thrown out as I wasn't a regular. Still im utter shock! No wonder it's gone downhill and the owners are broke!! What a shockingly terribly run establishment!

Lovely local pub and a great supporter to the LGBT community, Reading Pride, and the Reading Renegades RFC. They support events and fun nights out with the monthly pub quiz, Drag Queen bingo, and karaoke. As they only promote on Facebook, events can be difficult to find, but stop in and take a look at the schedule.. They have daily food specials and I recommend Mac and Cheese night and afternoon breakfast when they are offered. The bar staff are friendly and they do a great job at getting to know the customers.
