Côte Reading - (Near Berkshire, london)

H L-J Ive been eating at Afghan Flavours, Reading for circa 18 months now. I was introduced by my sisters friend and have kept coming back on my own, with a my sister or in small groups. Its very reliable, tasty, fresh and hot food. Family friendly. Very reasonably priced for the quality and freshness. You can see the kitchen from the counter too. Other reviews mentioning service speed need to show some patience. Freshly cooked and prepared food takes time and this is an increasingly popular establishment. I would describe as cafe style eating. Whether its the Channa Daal, Houmous, halloumi, chicken byriani, Qabuli chicken/lamb, chicken/lamb charsi karahi, Afghan style red kidney beans, Chaplin kebab paties, chicken or lamb or mixed tikka or lamb kofta - I recommend all. For drinks would recommend mint or green tea (loose tea) or mango lassi (glass or jug) or a fresh juice. I prefer to eat in, but take away is also available. A friendly and hardworking team. Thank you for your quality food and service.

M Palmer This place has got to become a staple for me! Excellent food, made fresh in front of you, and was easy to order. The free toppings station is a bonus, considering so many restaurants these days charge extra for sauces. Lovely atmosphere and very affordable food, especially with blue light discount and being part of the free ‘marugame club’. It’s also fantastic if you’re on a calorie deficit as the portions are very generous whilst being fairly low in calories and high in protein. I got the regular beef nikutame udon and had to take half of it home as it was so filling! (Takeaway pots are easy to help yourself to next to the toppings section). Would recommend to anyone!

Kelly Buchanan We had the pleasure to be served by Marta today who was fantastic. She was very helpful. Made us understand the menu kept bringing the drinks and the food fantastic day will definitely definitely be going back again several times.

Adian Alnaas Me and my husband bought 4 falafel and halloumi wraps today! Guess what? They were the best falafel wraps in the UK! ❤️ so tasty and were made with love. The place was nice and clean and the guy who is working there was very friendly with us.

JackJackJack ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had such a fantastic experience at Harvester Horse & Groom and it completely saved our evening after a very disappointing meal at Village Hotel Bracknell. From the moment we arrived, everything felt warm and welcoming. We’d booked a table and were taken to a lovely, cosy corner which was perfect for our family. Our server, Sophie, was absolutely superb, attentive without being overbearing, genuinely friendly, efficient, and so helpful. She took the time to explain the kids’ options (including off-menu choices) and made the whole experience relaxed and enjoyable. She is an absolute credit to the team. The kids’ meals were fantastic value for money and really generous portions. I had the tandoori chicken skewer with red peppers, onion, flatbread and jalapeño tzatziki, with sage and onion fries, honestly delicious. And the salad bar… wow. Every main comes with free, refillable salad bowls, and this is no sad plate of lettuce. There’s lettuce, yes, but also olives, bread rolls, pasta salad, potato salad, rocket, coleslaw, olive oil, balsamic, everything was fresh and full of flavour. We even got 25% off through the app, which made it even better value. Highly recommend if you’re in the area, great food, brilliant service, and a really cosy, welcoming atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!

Nick Fischer The food is phenomenal! We came here for brunch and it was so good. We are definitely coming back. They have tons of vegan options and are super helpful with food allergies. The vegan pancakes are a hit. The service was super friendly, even though they were super busy when we came. Luckily we had a reservation so there was no wait when we showed up.
