Two new restaurants could be coming to Reading, with plans submitted to Reading Borough Council (RBC) to open up new eateries on Friar Street and Caversham Road.

A new fast-food takeaway and restaurant could be coming to Friar Street, replacing a closed travel shop.

The mysterious ‘Jacks’ is set to replace the old STA Travel shop at the ground floor unit on 150 Friar Street.

Although no details have been given about what kind of food will be on offer, the planning application does include designs showing chips in a cone.

New signage would be installed, as well as an extractor vent panel at the back of the unit, while the interior would be renovated including a new disabled toilet.

The restaurant/takeaway would open from 10am to 11pm, Monday-Saturday, and 10am to 7pm on Sundays.

Additionally, plans have been submitted to open a new restaurant on Caversham Road.

Kamal’s Kitchen, at 141 Caversham Road, would take over part of the old Standard Tandoori site and would open from 11am to 11pm – seven days per week.

Again, there is little detail about what the new restaurant will offer.

There are also plans for a new cafe on Oxford Road called Poseidon Cafe.

It will be at 355 Oxford Road, if approved, at a former catering company unit.

Most of the former Standard Tandoori site (which was at 141-145 Caversham Road) has already been turned into new restaurant Flavour of Mauritius, which opened at 143-145 Caversham Road in July this year.

Many new restaurants have opened this year in Reading, including Gordon Ramsay’s Street Burger, The Coconut Tree, Jollibee, Wendy’s, ThaiGrr! and Wingstop.
