1. The George and Dragon

The George and Dragon has long had a reputation as one of the top pub-restaurants in Berkshire – and now I know why.

2. The Shire Horse

I love good old English pubs like The Shire Horse. It’s quite an old inn, not one of these new ones that try to look as if they’re 500 years old.

No, it’s a genuine, good English pub.

3. The Six Bells Hungry Horse

One of the best things about pubs serving pub grub is that they can then become family friendly destinations.

4. Sizzling Spice

Sizzling Spice used to be known as Sizzling Wok and it built a good reputation for its Thai cusine.

5. Miah’s Saffron

Steve Coppell and I finally have something in common.

6. Wee Waif

Some pubs you just seem to drive past time and time again but never manage to stop off for a pint.

7. The Moderation Pub, Reading

The formerly dingy Moderation has had a fresh lease of life thanks to new leaseholder Andy Becalick.

8. Waterfall

My sister has been known to travel back from Birmingham for what she calls a Waterfalls.
