Reviews
The restaurant has a very pleasant atmosphere and polite, friendly staff — definitely a strong point. Unfortunately, the food didn’t live up to expectations. We ordered the chicken schnitzel and the fish pie. The schnitzel was well cooked but completely lacked salt or seasoning, making it quite bland. The fish pie, according to the description, includes two types of fish and prawns. The fish was fine, but there were only two prawns in the entire dish, and both were severely overcooked — tough and dry. The pie itself was also completely bland, with no salt or noticeable seasoning. Hopefully, more attention will be given to the flavor of the dishes in the future, because the service and atmosphere are genuinely very good.
We’ve been to Bill’s before but this was the first time in Reading. It’s in a beautifully old building though unfortunately overall we were underwhelmed. The service was faultless, very attentive, polite accommodating and responsive. Despite booking we had to wait 30 minutes for our table with others, cramped in the hallway/stairwell. Overall the place lacked the air of cleanliness and was very chaotic. The food was more bland previously experienced and not hot enough. There was an imbalance in ratio of pancake to topping, which meant that there was a lot of bland pancake to get through without accompanying fruit etc despite trying to make it look pretty. Be aware that the “pancake syrup” is NOT pure maple syrup. This was obvious in taste too and felt a bit deceptive as maple syrup was mentioned elsewhere on the menu. This place is well suited for those with kids or larger groups less concerned with quality and more with a having a gathering with food. There are plenty of options and they cater for different dietary needs.
The experience was extremely pleasant we enjoyed our time at Bills celebrating our anniversary. The food was amazing from the starters to desserts.Our waiter Ansh was so friendly and he made sure he always checked on us. His service made the experience even more wonderful.
I had a great time here :) The food and drinks were tasty, especially crispy calamaris. The atmosphere was perfect for a chill night. Tillie and the rest of the team were lovely! I also loved the idea of limited-time menus—Hawaiian burger.
Quite lovely experience! Definitely love the food there, which is both delicious and fresh. I would also love to give special thanks to Kasia who have been friendly and helpful. Most importantly, she gave us this nicest recommendations of the meals which I enjoyed a lot. Worth it !
