Closed for 200 Days

Do you realise, it is 200 days since we closed our doors at The Retreat for our refurbishment?

When we unlock the doors in a weeks time, on Monday 17 May 2021, we will have been closed for 6 months and 25 days. None of us expected it to be this long.

We are looking forward to welcoming back our friends and regulars to see the refreshed Retreat. It’s more than a lick of paint; the place is looking great…and it’s still very much The Retreat.

If you’ve been missing the pleasures of fine real ale, do look in and see us next week. And, if your preference is a glass of wine, check out our wine list with three recommended red wines and some equally enjoyable white wines. But, we have not become a wine bar! The Retreat is proud to continue its tradition of serving good real ales to the local community.

To help you plan your visit, we’ve extended our opening hours at The Retreat. We look forward to seeing you, when we can say cheers again, and start a new chapter in the history of The Retreat pub in Reading.
