A gastropub in Caversham known for its traditional British cuisine and drinks selection could open earlier during the day and stay open past midnight if changes are accepted.

The Griffin pub in Church Road, Caversham, is near the River Thames.

The pub is run by the Chef & Brewer collection owned by Greene King, which has a pedigree for traditional pub food, specials and cask ales.

The Griffin currently closes at 11pm Monday to Saturday, and 10.30pm on Sundays.

Opening hours differ throughout the week as well, opening at 11am Monday to Thursday and at 9am on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.

Chef & Brewer has applied to extend these hours past midnight.

The company has applied to sell alcohol from 8am to 12.30am on Friday and Saturdays, with alcohol sales taking place until 11.30pm the rest of the week.

The changes would allow customers to have a boozy drink with their breakfast.

The extension of these sales has been submitted in a licensing application to Reading Borough Council.

A statutory consultation into the application is live. You can respond to it by emailing licensing@reading.gov.uk.

The deadline for responses is Friday, April 18.

There are a number of other Chef & Brewer pubs in the area, such as The George & Dragon in Earley, The Olde Bell in Grazeley Green, and Ye Olde Leathern Bottel at the outskirts of Wokingham.
