Lunchtime Social – Theale
Time: 12:30
Meet in The Bull – Theale High Street.
Following a recce while distributing the Summer edition of Ullage to the Theale Pubs I concluded that the ideal pub to meet in would be The Bull on the high street.
Trains from the Newbury direction arrive at Theale Station around 12:30 and the walk to the Bull takes around 8 minutes. To get to The Bull from the station head into the town center. At the roundabout (near The Crown) turn right and The Bull is 200 yards on the left.
There are several pubs in the town which could also be visited after meeting up. Here are my notes on the pubs I visited on 10 Jun 2020. Note: these comments were valid at the time, things might have changed since then. All pubs visited are on the main road through the town.
You can see from my scores below that the only 2 real contenders are The Volunteer, and The Bull (closer to the station).

The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter was first published by Frederick Warne & Co. (now part of Penguin Random House UK) in 1902. The World of Peter Rabbit™ will be celebrating 120 years of mischief throughout 2022.
In celebration of the anniversary, Frederick Warne & Co. are pleased to present “The World of Peter Rabbit™ Storytime Trail” a walk-through experience where visitors will be able to immerse themselves in The Tale of Peter Rabbit. Little bunnies will be able to crawl under the garden gate, hide in a watering can and see their reflection in a mirror pool, just like Peter Rabbit!
With photo opportunities and activities to take part in along the way, there will be plenty of opportunities for families to celebrate Peter Rabbit’s birthday in 2022.
