The Hexagon’s gone quiet but the real night’s just getting started. Down by the Oracle, riverside bars glow with late-night energy, while tucked-away lounges near Friar Street pour cocktails until the early hours. Reading’s after party scene has range for the party lover with its intimate rooftop terraces for slow sips and stories, private bars for wedding crews who won’t quit, and colourful dance floors that don’t believe in curfews. This city isn’t just a stop between London and Oxford, it knows how to throw down when the lights go low. Birthday? Gig? One more round with your crew? There’s a spot in Reading waiting to keep the good times rolling.
