Calico Bar & Eatery

Calico Bar & Eatery is a bar and restaurant venue in Reading with a standing capacity of up to 200 people. Warm lighting and potted plants give the space a relaxed, lived-in character, and natural light adds to the overall atmosphere during daytime events. The venue has three spaces in total, two of which are named in the record. The Bar Area accommodates up to 200 standing, while the Library offers a more contained setting for up to 50 standing - useful when a breakout or smaller gathering is needed alongside a larger event. On-site facilities include AV equipment, a sound system, flatscreen display screens, high-speed internet and air conditioning. Reading Station is a 13-minute walk away, and London Heathrow Airport is reachable in around 39 minutes by car. Reading Museum is a 7-minute walk from the venue, and Reading Abbey Ruins is roughly 10 minutes on foot - both worth noting for delegates with time to explore the surrounding area.
