The staff were lovely. Atmosphere is really nice and good choice of music. However, I want to make this review about the Big Cow burger. This is the most stupendous burger I’ve had in my life. The meat melts in your mouth, the cheese sauce is divine. I need more of these burgers now. Try the Big Cow burger. Thank you Oakford. By the way, make sure you get a side of tobacco onions.

Recently held a celebration at Oakford Social Club. The buffet I pre-ordered was great, a good selection of tasty food. Luckily the band didn't start till later in the evening or we may not have been able to hear each other! Not too packed, was a lovely night.

Oakford is a great bar/ restaurant with a really yummy, varied menu that's cost effective. I've been for Mothers day, family special occasions and evenings night. It suits every occasion. Staff that stand out to me, Leigh. She used to work on the bar and always gave great service now I understand she's a chef and food quality is top notch so she's definitely doing a great job! Also bloody love the photo booth!!

The Oakford is always a classic pub. Great beer on tap, wide selection of bottles. Food in the past has always been grand and the prices are reasonable despite being a stones throw from the train station. Totally recommend

I've been a regular at the Oakford ever since I was invited to a VIP preview before it opened. I've seen it in all its incarnations. The pub is modern, roomy, conveniently located, great food and a good selection of booze. The front and backgardens don't get much sun but outdoor space in central Reading is rare. The service has always been slow and if you're not there to listen to the live music, the sound checking and performance ruins your pub experience.

Nice pub, comfy places to sit, big tables for groups. Food was okay, I have ordered the Classic Cheese Burger and the beef patty was burned. The fried and sweet potato fried were good and the sauces served on the table is enjoyable (not very common after pandemic). Good drinks, average price. The star is they are pet friendly, so our dog could join us for a good time.

The Oakford Social Club on Blagrave Street is an old established venue off the beaten track in Reading. Situated opposite Reading Station this is away from the main pedestrian thoroughfares. This place is pretty big inside with a small outdoor garden / smoking area out the back. Quite a few events such as live music gigs etc happen here. I’ve only been a couple times so not seen what it fully has to offer. If you want something a little less commercial than the other known commercial franchises in Reading for a day or night out then give it a go.
