Pentalounge - Reading

Very Nice food and good service. Drinks quite expensive though

Pentalounge, as part of the Pentahotel is the epitome of Swedish simplistic design... The food menu doesn't have a lot of coice, but what is on there is LOVELY. The meal started with three different choices of home made bread... all of which I'd never tried before they were all lush. I then went for a very healthy goats cheese salad well apart from the cheese!. It was a nice, relaxed dinner and the hotel looked great from first impressions too

We had no complaints with our meal from the Caverhsam, however we thought the wine menu was much better and very good value for money before Penta hotel took over

The food at the Caversham is a little disappointing for its price band. It's nicely presented but the only thing we could recommend is the steak, which is excellent. The mushroombrie tart starter was cold was it supposed to be? and the soup was bland, as was the vegetarian main, which I wasn't altogether sure of the griddled parts had a meatyfishy taste which I didn't like. Everything was ok, but nothing was outstanding although the steak was worth paying extra for

I wasn't particularly impressed with Caversham restaurant. Unless you enjoy dining in an airport lounge, this place isn't for you it's soulless, empty and too bright for a start. The food was pretty mediocre too and we sent the starters back because they tasted like they came out of a packet. The service was fairly good and the deal made it worth it but I would have resented paying full price for this meal
