L’Ortolan Reading’s Fine Dining Restaurant

Relax in the luxurious, unique and timeless setting offered by one of the best restaurants Reading has to offer – L’Ortolan. In addition to private dining, we also offer biodynamic wines, corporate events and cooking experiences.

The L’Ortolan occupies a beautiful, Grade II listed building in the quaint village of Shinfield, just a short drive from Junction 11 of the M4.

Our restaurant has been operated by a series of Michelin-starred chefs since opening in 1984, and Jamie Pearce is our current – and very talented – head chef. When you walk through our grand Gothic front doors, you’ll be greeted by warm, welcoming staff, and your taste buds will get an unforgettable treat.

If you want to enjoy traditional flavours mixed with contemporary recipes, you won’t regret it when you book a table at one of the few fine dining restaurants in Berkshire.
