The Kitchen

Delicious food prepared with fresh, locally-sourced ingredients, served at our onsite restaurant.

We serve local produce to the highest standards.

Our restaurant helps our students sharpen their culinary skills. All our menus have been created to challenge our chefs to enhance their customers' dining experience. The Kitchen is run by students, supported by teaching staff with industry experience.

Our modern restaurant features a large viewing window, so you are able to see the chefs in action! Check us out on Instagram!

The facilities and menus are versatile and can be adapted to suit any dietary needs.

What people say

TripAdvisor
“Had heard so much about the restaurant at the College and thought we would give it a try. Three of us went there yesterday and ate. What a brilliant meal, beautifully cooked, ambience was lovely and very helpful staff. Will certainly be going again. Check it out, ideal for parties too. Keep up the good work.”

“Anyone in the Reading area and who would like to try something different then go to "The Kitchen at Reading College”

“The thing that surprised me most when I visited The Kitchen at Reading College was not how professional the students were or how the food was better than some I've had in other Reading restaurants. No, the thing that left me astounded, was that the head chef for the lunch time service was 16-years-old. 16!”
