The Crispin

Directions Website

The Crispin We are a traditional pub serving a wide range of local ales, real ciders, wines & spirits. We have a large beer garden, fantastic Jukebox & friendly staff.

The Crispin is one of the oldest pubs in Wokingham, with the building being over 400 years old. We are a wet pub with a very good range of ales, many of which are fairly local. Our garden is large and enclosed, making it child friendly. We welcome patrons of all ages and dogs too. Although we don't serve food, we encourage customers to bring a picnic or have a takeaway here. We will supply cutlery & crockery if needed. Our juke box is one of the best in Wokingham. So you can set the mood for your night out. At The Crispin, we have a darts board, draughts, cards, a crib board and Perudo.

🍺 Happy St Crispin's Day! 🍺

As it's St Crispin's Day today, I thought I'd share a little bit of history about our lovely old pub and how it got its name.

St Crispin, whose feast day is celebrated on 25th October, is the patron saint of shoemakers, which brings us nicely to the history of The Crispin.

Many years ago, our building was owned by a gentleman called James Green, who started out as a shoemaker before becoming a brewer and b**r seller.

It's believed that the pub became known as The Crispin because of James's connection to the shoemaking trade and its patron saint.

So there you go, a little bit of Wokingham history that you might not have known!

I love that our little pub has such a long history, and that all these years later it's still doing what it was intended to do – serving a decent pint and bringing people together.

Happy St Crispin's Day from all of us at The Crispin! 🍻

Well, it's certainly not the nicest day out there! 🌧️💨

Cold, wet and windy, but it's a completely different story inside The Crispin!

The log fire is roaring, the pub is lovely and warm, and we've gone very pink for Wear It Pink Day! 🩷

We've also got 3 cracking guest ales on the bar, so that's another good reason to pop in!

If you're out and about in Wokingham today, come in, dry off, warm up by the fire and have a pint or two.

We're raising money for Breast Cancer Now, so if you can spare a little something for our collection, we'd really appreciate it.

And yes, I'm wearing pink too… no surprises there! 😂🩷

Hope to see you later!

🩷 WEAR IT PINK DAY – FRIDAY 23RD OCTOBER 🩷

As most of you know, I’m not exactly a stranger to wearing pink 😂 so this is one charity day I’m very happy to get behind!

On Friday 23rd October we’ll be turning The Crispin PINK for Breast Cancer Now.

We’d love as many of you as possible to join in too — come down wearing something pink. It can be a shirt, hat, socks, feather boa… whatever you fancy. The brighter the better!

Last year you lovely lot helped us raise £245, so obviously this year we’d really like to beat it. 💗

There’ll be plenty of pink around the pub, we’ll be dressed for the occasion and hopefully we can raise a really good amount for Breast Cancer Now while having a bit of fun at the same time.

So dig something pink out of the wardrobe and come and help us TURN THE CRISPIN PINK! 🩷

Just a little reminder that it’s Quiz Night tomorrow (Wed) night at The Crispin!

We’ve still got a couple of tables left if you fancy joining us. We start at 8pm and, as always, all the money raised will be going to Bowel Cancer UK.

And seeing as we’re right in the middle of Cask Ale Week, it would be rude not to sneak in a few questions about b**r and breweries 🍺
Don’t worry though — you definitely don’t need to be a b**r expert to join in!

It’s always a good laugh, never taken too seriously and it’s all for a very good cause.

Drop us a message if you’d like us to save you one of the last tables.

See you tomorrow!
