Exceptional service Perfectly crafted flat white Sausage roll was well seasoned and tasty. Light, fluffy carrot cake with perfect balance of nuts and a scrumptious cream cheese icing

I like this place. Some original food and cakes rather than the usual hash of burgers and pre packaged snacks. Service is friendly and efficient. It’s small and without a lot of seating. I love to take a coffee and snack and sit at the outside tables and watch the strange and wonderful residents of Reading stroll by.

A small place. Seating is both in and outside. The cakes are amazing, and the coffee is good. Staff are always welcoming and attentive.

Picnic is one of my favourite coffee places in Reading! Coffee is alway top quality, food is always different from week to week (fishcakes are my personal favourite 👍😊). Very decent vegan sausage rolls 👍😊 I love their soups and stews during the winter 👍 Desserts are mouthwatering, carrot cake is the tenderest and delicious out of all to my taste😋 Also love their "Apple and maple"! Recommended this place to many people and everyone was always pleased with taste and quality ❤️

Convenient spot for a bite to eat, offering both eat in and take away options. The goats cheese and pine nut toastie was lovely, even if slightly overpriced. The iced coffees were nice too but the fact that they don’t have a toilet is quite surprising. Definitely something to note if dining in - it put us off so we got food to go.
