Independents

Perhaps slightly overshadowed in the past by their high-street brand counterparts, Reading is home to a growing hub of wonderfully independent shops and businesses. Offering everything from cakes to comics, Reading’s indies are full of local, hard-working heroes selling unique products and local produce.

You’ll find Reading’s independent shops popping up in every pocket of the town, with many finding a home in Harris Arcade Shopping Centre. Along with better-known high-street brands, you’ll also find our independent shops dotted along the main shopping streets of Broad Street and Friar Street and their adjoining roads.

Twice weekly you'll find delicious street food served by independent traders at Reading's food markets at Market Place and Blue Collar Corner, Reading's newest independent foodie venue, is open Thursday-Sunday .
