Redan’s refurb from retro to refit
The owner with his team
A
fter two and a half weeks of refurbishment The Redan is open for your pleasure. It has been no mean feat from bespoke designed wallpaper and new floors to an entire toilet demolition and rebuild we have no idea how this was made possible. The pub has gone from retro to chic.
The new updated and quite frankly boujie Redan is concentrating of the finer things in life. A cocktail bar since 2006 The Redan is expanding its already substantial Champagne range to include Perrier Jouet as pouring, and by the glass it’s a very reasonable £10, along with classic fizz in LP Rose, Tattinger,
Moet and for the more distinguished Champagne connoisseur Bella Epoch. The cocktails were flowing and with the reopening on Wednesday 6th March when the bar was truly christened. All were impressed and delighted with the interior design and the exterior revamped garden, or should
we say parking area, with fresh green Astro turf and the signature 14 heated benches that all the regular customers to The Redan know and love. So come on down, experience the revolution in this slightly more mature and refined version of Wokingham’s favourite bar.
