Pau Brasil - Reserva de mesa

On a wander round haunts of long ago, was disappointed with the Pheasant, which had run out of Guinness, charm, and, it seemed, hope. But no sooner had I left to plod sadly back into town than I came by this small cafe. Decided to revive my spirits with a coffee. Inside was greeted by the proprietress, a most welcoming, smart, erudite Brazilian. A Brazilian coffee shop on Mount Pleasant, Reading! Wonders will never cease. Of course, being Brazilian, Pau Brasil sold wonderful cakes. I asked about them, and the lady described the displayed delights enticingly. I couldn’t resist and took a seat outside on one of the two tables. Well, my cake was terrific–think it was called Ladrez or something–...

This little gem is a little out the town centre but well worth the visit. I have taken many friends over the last few years coming from different backgrounds, countries and ethnicities and everyone has enjoyed the food. The lady who runs it i believe is called Evie is a lovely charming woman who makes everyone feel welcome straight away and takes time to speak to all her customers. The food for me is exceptional there are a few dishes witch have an acquired taste but i have enjoy every one i have tried so far My only complaint is it shuts fairly early so you would need an early dinner and you couldn't go there after work but if you are free during the day give this place a try

First visit for a couple of years to an old favourite. Despite the genial owner apologising for possible slowness due to cost of living pressures (use it or lose it! we were served as efficiently as ever. The feijoada (Brazil’s national dish was to die for, as ever; rissoles and other unusual sides were great too. Also a wide selection of amazing cakes and regional ingredients. Still a hidden gem in a quiet corner of Reading, but if you haven’t been, you’re missing out on a real treat.

Great food and the best atmosphere! The Brazilian culture is very beautifully reflected in the decor of the place, making it a very cozy restaurant to eat with family and friends! If you want a taste of authentic Brazilian cuisine, this is the best place you'll find in England! Ps: the owner is a very lovely and friendly Brazilian lady who will make sure you have the best experience! Reserva una mesa ahora

10/10 Delicious! I am not kidding when I say this is the best meal I’ve had in weeks if not months! The bacalao fritters and the chicken Frango a Milanesa were perfectly cooked. Portion size is generous for mains. Had flan for dessert my only pointer would be that this portion seemed a bit too small. 10/10 recommend you all to go

Fantastic cuisine as per always. This cafe feels really home-like and is run by a Brazilian lady and her husband. I come here occasionally and am always satisfied when I leave. I rate the Frango Milanesi and bacalao!
