Back to Pubs

The Bantam was built in 1962 to serve as the community pub in the small village of Burghfield common, four miles outside Reading.

Arkell's acquired this well-established pub in the Spring of 2000. It is conveniently situated five miles from Junction 12 of the M4, and is also close to the River Kennet, the extensive sailing facilities on the lakes at Theale and, of course, the shopping and leisure centres of Reading.

The Bantam is a roomy pub with a particularly friendly atmosphere and - with Arkell's fine ales now available - it offers the perfect setting to while away an evening in the company of friends.
