A Night on the Tiles with Dinner at The Jazz Café Reading

In the beginning two guys opened what was to become a cult known as The Jazz Café. Located in a 400 year-old bakery, which traded by day as a market and by night a live music venue.

The ambiance was often referred to as walking into your best friends house, knowing you could party till the small hours with like-minded people.

You may have gone in as a stranger but you never left feeing like one. Great music, occasionally cutting out if the meter was not fed, and as quoted in The Sunday Observer: when it rained the tin roof applauded, leaked into an array of buckets, every town should have The Jazz.

As times moved on, owners Alain and Dave aspired to develop the business further but found Henley landlords too greedy, so they held a closing down sale and the last house party at The Jazz took place at the end of August 2000.

The guy's said they would be back and less than one year later they took over a venue at the classy Madejski Complex down the road in Reading. This time they have air conditioning, a disabled toilet larger than all of the toilets at Henley, (no more leaky roofs!), wooden flooring, carpets, an elevator and revolving silver balls The only item they did move with them was the ambiance!

What could be more entertaining and relaxing than a lovely meal coupled with a fantastic evening of live music.

The Jazz Café in Reading showcases some of the best talent from Jazz, RnB, Soul and Funk music from around the UK and is the perfect venue for a complete night out.

Your voucher entitles you to a two-course meal for two, entrance to the club, a table for the whole evening and live entertainment.
