"Fairly limited lunch menu, and not the most imaginative of choices: I had the felafel burger (which turned out to be falafel in a bun, with chips); my partner had the halloumi burger (halloumi in a bun, with chips). But RISC (Reading International Solidarity Centre) is such a cool place, and what a brilliant selection of beers. I couldn't make my mind up between their numerous pale ales, so opted for an Erdinger dunkel weissbier. And the shop next door is great, too."

no idea how this place was missing from yelp. it is one of the first places I found in reading that gave me the piece of art and culture I believed.

when they are fed with the global chain cafés in the city, take a walk on the wild side (via the lights in the vue cinema in oracle) and discover them.

a true place of the community, risc is much more than a restaurant. although the Ethiopian cookery by tutu’s is excellent! they get a great authentic meal.
Margit
the mushroom burger is crazy good, I expected a squishy sub par portobello and got crispy tempura mushrooms. the drinks are extensive and great, come for years as bar. really a hidden gem in a boring city!
Grete

we stopped here for lunch, the staff is super friendly and the food was really nice. there were some vegan options to choose from and many of them was gluten-free, which was a bonus. it is also very favorable. (they even had gluten-free vegan cake updated by previous review on 2019-06-29

The restaurant now offers a new all-vegetarian menu at the bar. A friend and I enjoyed a delicious vegan wrap with flavorful side dishes. The food arrived promptly and was enough for both of us. The bar also has a fantastic selection of wines, beers, coffee, and tea, as well as live musical performances in the evenings.
Heide
we were here and were looking forward to eating tasty injera and curries just to find that the Ethiopian place that was here earlier disappeared. that is above all a bar. As other reviews have found, the menu is small, although completely vegan and vegetarian (all items can be made vegan). Unfortunately, my assessment cannot comment on the eating itself, as they lost our order. (We went too foot to miami burger.
