"I gave 4 but id say 3.5. We were met by a friendly waitress who showed us to our seats. Once sat down it took about 10 minutes for someone to ask if we'd like drinks and I we were ready to order. Nothing major at this point really. Maybe a little longer wait to be asked than normal but it was busy so I was cool with it. We ordered a starter and drinks. It took 15 20 minutes for the starter which again fairly acceptable, however it was at this point we only received our drinks. The starter tasted good though so kudos to the guy/ gal in the kitchen for that. We ordered our main. This took about 25 minutes... again it was busy and was to be expected. But not once were we seen to by the front of house team for drinks until the main came. Again the mains were good, another kudos to the guys in the kitchen. Steak was good perfectly. We enjoyed the meal, however the service let it down tis particular night. Looking around many other seemed a little fed up with the wait and not being seen to. I'm not one to complain really, specially in a busy restaurant but I do think it's important to try and check in with customer ever now and then. All in all, I'd come.back again in the hope of even slightly better service."

During our stay at the Premier Inn next door, we dined at Bar + Block. It was a lovely restaurant with delicious food and helpful staff.

I would give this restaurant a 5-star review if it wasn't for the fact that our order got lost. The food was tasty and they made up for the mistake by giving us free desserts for everyone at our table of 5. The prices are mid-range, with mains averaging around £14. The parking is great and the atmosphere is nice.

This is an excellent spot for lunch, and the Corona beer on draft was fantastic, served in the right glass as well. The food was delightful. I want to give a special shout-out to our server, Lindsey, who was incredibly professional and attentive to all our needs. She was very friendly and offered some great recommendations. View menu

A group of 22 of us went to the bar and block last night for our annual Christmas party. Everything about the evening was very enjoyable. The food was lovely and came out in good time and together. The service was great nothing was too much trouble, a big thank you to the manager Daniel who organised the evening for us. Such a fabulous evening, Will definitely return.

I pre-booked a table online and received a fantastic 25% off voucher. When we arrived, the restaurant was quite busy, but the waiter was very apologetic about the wait, which wasn't a problem for us at all. Our food arrived without any issues, and I can honestly say it was the best fillet I've had in a long time. The staff were lovely, and the atmosphere was fantastic. I will definitely be returning!

I really enjoyed my experience at Bar Block, despite not expecting to. I stopped in for a quick meal before going to the movies. The food was what I would expect from a steak house, but they had some unique options that stood out (the cauliflower wings were particularly delicious). The service was quick and friendly, although it was early so I can't say how it would be when busy. The atmosphere was great for a Monday evening. I will definitely be returning in the future.

Our first time going in July 2021 for 30th wedding anniversary and we wasn’t disappointed, we went as a family of four to celebrate .the food was amazing, staff were great and very helpful and accommodating we asked to change tables for more comfortable seats ,ones for my disabled daughter , hence we did go about 5 o’clock not busy at all , we were apprehensive on going to start with due to really bad reviews when they first originally opened a few yrs now , glad we took the plunge , only criticism is that it’s a luxury as the prices are a bit high

We had an excellent waitress named Emma. The food was delightful. It was quite busy, and the staff seemed overwhelmed, but Emma consistently provided great service throughout the evening. I would also like to express my gratitude to the staff for being accommodating to me and my friend. My friend has some sound sensitivity issues, and Daniel was exceptionally understanding. The service was fantastic, and the food was outstanding! With their 25% discount for signing up, it’s hard to beat the quality of food you receive. Overall, it was a wonderful experience! Highly recommended!

"After many years, on recommendation of others, went to this restaurant to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Whilst the food was excellent, the service was atrocious and totally ruined what should have a lovely night out on a very special occasion. Booked for and seated...promptly. Orders for aperitifs taken and drinks brought promptly. Order for wine taken, bottle brought and opened. Then it all went downhill. Waited for over minutes for our meal order to be taken and that only happened because I signalled to the girl behind the bar that I was getting unhappy. First course then took about minutes to arrive. However our main course took until to arrive. I have never ever waited minutes for a main course to arrive. It would not have been so bad if the staff had shown any interest or we had been able to grab hold of one to ask what was going on, they just seemed to totally ignore us! As mentioned earlier, the food, when it did arrive, was very good, it would have been even better if the side order of vegetables my wife had ordered had also arrived. We did ask what had happened to them but when we were told they had been overlooked, decided to just make do and share mine. To add insult to injury, while we were waiting we noticed that other couples were eating dishes that were not on the menu we had been given. I later found out that we were supposed to have been given a specials menu but this had also been overlooked. At the end, the manager was very apologetic and gave a cursory discount however this was not the point. It was a special occasion at a not inexpensive restaurant I would have preferred to pay the full price and not had a ruined evening. Needless to say, we will not be returning."

"Amazing food and a great atmosphere!!. This is by far the best Café in Reading and probably one of, if not the best Café I've been too anywhere! Café YOLK offers an amazing breakfast and lunch menu with a few culinary firsts for Reading (i.e Pancakes with Streaky Bacon!! . The speciality coffees on offer are by far the best in Reading, there is no where better to go for your Caffeine fix! The staff and owners are extremely polite and friendly and the whole Café has a great atmosphere, even the clientèle that the Café attracts adds to the overall feel and friendliness. The Café can get busy on weekends during lunchtime, however the service is always to a high standard and you're never kept waiting longer than you should be, and trust me, the food is worth the wait! Despite only opening 3 weeks ago Café YOLK has already become extremely popular with the locals and has developed a loyal customer base and keeping in touch with the times, has a Facebook page, Twitter account and is on Foursquare, where they regularly keep you up-to-date with news and great special offers and promotions (So it's definitely worth following them! I would highly recommend going to Café YOLK to any of my friends or family and already have done many times and I'm sure that I will continue too! Such an amazing family run business where quality and value have been blended perfectly!"
