Berkshire Arms Photo

 

 

The Berkshire Arms in Midgham lies halfway between Newbury and Reading on the A4 Bath Road.  Dating back to the 18th Century, it was built on a gravel pit as a farmhouse and was a private home until about the mid 1980's.  This imposing building has two stories to the front and fairly high ceilings and real fires inside.  It was transformed into a Chef & Brewer in 2002 and now attracts regular diners, passing trade (many from the Premier Travel Inn next door), and locals who pop in for a quality pint from the bar.  Like all Chef & Brewer pubs we employ high quality Chefs who have superb kitchen facilities.  The food can be chosen from a main menu or unique Specials from the chalk boards which allow our Chefs to show their flair!  You will be served meals which have been prepared from the freshest of ingredients and cooked to order.  Fresh fish dishes are favourites here.  To complement your meal there is an extensive choice of quality wines or real ales and other drinks are available at the bar.  The staff here are efficient , friendly and welcoming.  Some are proficient in languages such as French, German, Spanish, Hungarian and Polish!  Treat yourself to a rather special meal next time you are in the area.  The interesting team look forward to your visit.
