"As a self-confessed coffee snob I was a little concerned what I'd do for my two- or three times daily fix when required to go for three days of training at a Biosciences company in Winnersh Triangle. I was put up in a decent Holiday Inn on-site but I'm not a fan of hotel coffee and anyway, their espresso machine wasn't turned on at breakfast time. Fortunately, immediately outside the hotel was Gather Gather where, I was relieved to discover, they know how to make a good coffee. It was as though a small part of Shoreditch had been transplanted into a Berkshire business park, but without the London prices: a double espresso cost £1.70 The decor is airy, clean and contemporary with plenty of wood and steel and no false ceiling, exposing the ventilation ducts; there's plenty of seating, inside and out. I've just read some of the other reviews and have to disagree with many of them; I found the staff helpful and pleasant, taking time to explain the lunch menu to customers in front of me, but best of all, they know how to make a decent espresso, something I didn't expect to find in Winnersh Triangle. And just to emphasise the hipster connection, they use Union beans, hand roasted in East London. I didn't sample any if the food, but it looked as though they cared about that, too. However, I can certainly recommend their coffee"

Reviewing from the Gather Gather at Green Park in Reading. Hot food is usually OK, the jacket potatoes are never hot and the portion sizes for the extras are so small yet charge you £1.15 for the pleasure of a small handful of grated cheese. Staff are unwelcoming and cold faced. Overall Gather Gather could do better!

Cold atmosphere to sit in didn’t feel like any heating on at all but still nicer than adjacent hotel. Nice black coffees and absolutely delicious carrot cake muffins. Bit surprised that breakfast not served after 10 but decent selection of pastries and such like. Very clean loos but tarnished cutlery. Friendly staff strong WiFi

Expect to pay premium prices for small portions of trendy, low-quality food at this restaurant. While there may be a few tasty dishes, the overall selection is limited and overpriced, typical of central London establishments. With little competition in the area, there is no motivation for the restaurant to offer good value to customers.

During a training course, we stopped by this restaurant for lunch, but I wouldn't eagerly return. The food was mediocre and expensive. I tried the steak burrito, which was bland and tough. They offer a variety of cold salads, beans, noodles, and pre-packaged sandwiches. The staff was kind, but because this was one of the few lunch spots in the area, it was crowded with long, slow lines. Speisekarte ansehen

My wife and I stopped by this restaurant while staying at the Crowne Plaza hotel across the street. Although the prices were a bit steep, we were greeted by a friendly man who identified himself as a manager from the head office on a day experience. He was pleasant and accommodating, and the coffees and food were both enjoyable. Definitely worth a visit if you're in a busy enterprise park.

The salad looks amazing and the different sizes gave you a good choice. You can add meat to it, but generally looks really good. I didnt try the salad as one day I had the hot dog and then chicken toastie the next. both could be hotter but ok. The place has a great vibe and very modern. The staff are good and there is something special about this place. Yes there are opportunities like, just keep it simple and dont over complicate how you do things.

This seems to be a cafe designed by someone who has never seen one. Start by playing hunt the menu, follow this by a stress inducing 10 minutes trying to figure out how the queue works. I went in at 1pm, by which time both the hot meals on offer, jacket spud and chicken burger, had sold out. I got an overpriced child's portion of scampi chips and cold peas. If you a hipster and you're not hungry this is the place for you, otherwise you might want to give it a miss. Speisekarte ansehen

Really not what I expected but was actually quite good! We were looking for somewhere close and healthy. I started with a bowl of very well priced and tasty Moroccan soup. Wife and I then had a salad, which came in very large portions and was certainly tasty too. Coffee was presented in a glass... which can be off-putting but it was good and well presented. Both had a muffin as dessert which was delicious as well. Decor is industrial chic so not to everybodies taste but the staff were pleasant and I enjoyed it.

11:40am went in early to beat lunchtime rush due to work commitments. 5 members of staff inc manager and head chef having a briefing in front and behind the salad counter as you walk in. They spotted me, I asked if they were open and they said Yes, then went back to their briefing meeting . The manager continued with his brief and left me standing there. I was left waiting, patiently, but when Manager asked if anyone else had anything to add and the head chef said Yes and started his briefing, I felt extremely embarrassed to be so rudely ignored. They put themselves above me, a customer, and in my book that 's not how to run a successful business. Needless to say I walked out and got a sandw...

"Posting on behalf of PeterfromSandhurst, who was limited to only review per month. As I was of the people on this visit, I agree with everything that has been said and whole heartedly recommend the Lord Raglan for family visits. On to...the actual review. visit, this time with six people comprising three generations aged (that day) to almost We agreed that we would just keep ordering one or two plates every minute or so and share them so we could all eat the entire menu, a bit at a time. Over hours and plates of food later the results were in, we had eaten the menu! The clear favourite by show of hands (from the little ones and the ladies) was the sticky toffee pudding (no surprises there). Choosing favourites after that was very hard indeed as they were all good. The haddock was excellent with a close dense batter that was both light but substantial (don’t ask me how) and closely hugged the good sized piece of fish. It held heat well, tasted good (both batter and fish) and remained crisp until the last bite despite not rushing to eat it. The chicken (breast pieces in the sharing platter and the smoky spicy thighs dish) were also great. Moist, very tasty but the thighs a tad spicy/smoky for the children (the smoky hit is pretty instant for a kid) but the adults all loved them, the crunchy crusted breast fillets were loved by all. The ribs were moist, delicious, plentiful and fell apart simply by looking at them. The meat board (usually a shared starter) scored highly again with the juicy pork leek sausages beautifully finished with scorched crispy skin just like the very best BBQs can manage but still wonderfully moist inside. Pulled brisket very juicy, still not sure what they use instead of butter but it works perfectly. The Korean chicken burger with kimchi was a hit with my wife (she hadn’t had kimchi before) leaving a nice afterglow without any blast of heat. She just read this and said “The sausages were delicious, I really liked those, next time I go, I am going to have sausage and mash”. Well that’s her bit done. Oh, and by the way, it was steak day (every Thursday it seems), and the steaks come as a package with chips, a sauce choice and a drink (soft or wine etc) at discounted prices, so we had a few of those too. Ordered medium rib eyes, held our breath, and low and behold medium rib eyes arrived (well done chef! And eat your heart out Miller and Carter). So if you are sick to death of places that can’t cook a steak properly, try here. I hadn’t eaten Mac and cheese for years but tried that too and found the cheese was great, had a real intense depth of flavour and lovely grilled crusty edges (that you pick out of your teeth for the next minutes mmmm). If you have the time to spend a few hours mid week with people you love in a quirky but relaxed atmosphere you could do worse than try this tasting menu approach to culinary socialising. The Staff could not have been more accommodating, despite the unconventional nature of our visit. Thank you Beth and Leah, you did an excellent job. I made a couple of remarks on my first visit about how I might improve things if I was permitted to stick my oar in and again. Bang, they had been implemented just two days later. Amazing stuff Lily (boss), you are a star. Any kitchen that consistently turns out dish after dish like this one does, has something going right. See you again soon."
