Quick info
About Fidget & Bob
Fidget & Bob is a coffee shop on Kennet Island in Reading, working across breakfast, lunch and takeaway from a single counter. The kitchen turns out sandwiches on fresh bread, including a named HLT, alongside avocado, sausage and sourdough options, with vegan and veggie choices covered too. Coffee and turmeric lattes run alongside savoury items such as won ton dumplings and sweet ones like apple pie. Tables inside seat walk-ins, and the same food is packed up to take away for those on the move. Dogs are welcome in the room, and the counter handles orders without the need to book.

“Great service, tasty food (lots of vegan & veggie options), brilliant coffee and atmosphere! Would love it if you can extend your hours to slightly later in the day/for the rush hour to grab a coffee before the bus. Edited to say: there's loads of tables inside now!”
