You'll find The Cocktail Club tucked away on Gun Street, which has quietly become one of Reading's better spots for an actual night out. The bar itself has that effortless sophistication—dark wood, good lighting, the kind of place where staff know what they're doing behind the stick. Order a Negroni and they won't flinch; ask for something off-menu and they'll actually listen rather than just nodding along. The vibe is properly grown-up without being stuffy, and it's the sort of place where you can have a proper conversation without shouting over a sound system.
