We had never been to The Pike and gave it a try. Wife was alittle worried about part of town but they have great well lit parking. Food and service were very good. Was abit loud for us but that was ok. Good solid place, give it a try.

Love Tuesdays!!! Lobster night is just wonderful! On their wing nights, my favorite is the southwestern wings. The waiters and waitresses are so attentive. Everything at this place is just yummy! Highly recommend!!!

Used to come here for their wing specials quite often. The food is good and reasonably priced however I have has trouble with service issues here on more than one occasion. One was a problem with separating checks between a few friends which apparently they don't do though it is stated nowhere. Also have has a few occasions of mis... More

It took my boyfriend probably about a year to convince me to have a try at this joint. I don't like the reading area, and I didn't like the fact that this place doesn't have booths (I am very weird). Finally, I agreed. And I am so glad that I did! The food was ridiculously good - I mean REALLY... More

The Pike Cafe is a throwback to the Reading of my youth when almost every corner housed a good bar/restaurant. I am astounded when I encounter a suburbanite who has not dined here, probably because they are afraid to venture into the city after dark. But fear not chain-frequenting fear mongers, The Pike is safe and secure by day or... More

They have the best seafood chowder ever! Also have a variety of menu items. We've never been disappointed. Even though it's in downtown Reading, parking is free and easy and right across the street from the Pike

Funny location, but large private and monitored parking, Great Tavern! The owner is very hands on and involved in the food and service

About four of us came here a year or two ago to try their 'famous wings', and to be honest, I was a little disappointed. The waitress was sweet, but slow and was too busy entertaining the older men sitting at the bar... we were kind of forgotten about. The atmosphere was really nice, very comfortable. Food was good, but... More
