Car Parking
There is some limited parking available at the stadium itself for a cost of £10, but it can be a bit of lengthy process to get out of the car park at the end of the game. Richard Buckingham adds; 'You can also park on the site of the now demolished greyhound track, close to the stadium. From the M4 at Junction 11 take the A33 towards Reading town centre. Follow the dual carriageway past the stadium and McDonalds, KFC and Pizza Hut outlets, then look for the 'Alternative Parking' signs ahead. On the left you will reach a small slip road into the parking site (which incidentally is an official stadium car park). It has 500 spaces and costs £10 to park there. It is stewarded and has the advantage of a quick post-match exit either back to J11 or towards Reading. The car park is a 5-10 minute walk away from the ground.'
There are also a number of unofficial car parks in the area sited at local businesses. Bon Hale a visiting Sheffield United fan informs me; 'We parked in at a warehouse car park located on Acre Road at a cost of £5. Passing the Madejski on your left, follow the A33 for about half a mile, then turn back on yourself, passing Bennet Road on your left, and then take the next left into Acre Road. You will see sign "match parking", where there is a large warehouse on the left. It is gated with security. It is then only a short walk to the ground from here. We also spotted another matchday car park in Bennet Road but this cost £10.' There is also the option of renting a private driveway near the Madejski Stadium via YourParkingSpace.co.uk.
Mark Sugar informs me; 'Don't park in the nearby Business Park, unless there is an individual unit charging for matchday parking. You may find yourself with a parking ticket if you do'.
Park & Ride
Alternatively, there is a Park and Ride facility at Mereoak (post code RG7 1P near to Junction 11 of the M4, which has buses running to Reading town centre via the Madejski Stadium. From Junction 11 of the M4, take the A33 towards Basingstoke and the Park & Ride is signposted. Parking is free but the bus costs for a return ticket; Adults £3.50, Under 19's £1.70, or there is a group ticket available at £7 (for up to 4 people).

Cheers looks like acre road industrial units is best option. Nearest pub looks like the stonehouse.

All supporters are invited to Madejski Stadium a little earlier on matchdays... the Royals Rendezvous has risen once again outside the East Stand!
As well as welcoming Reading supporters, visiting fans are also more than welcome to join us and mingle in a friendly atmosphere around the ground.
I’m on about taking car Saturday too, just 2 of us and wondered if anyone else would like to share the petrol costs???
Apart from (the obvious) Real translating to Royal, I'm not sure what you're trying to say here because amongst a myriad of nicknames for each of the Spanish clubs mentioned, they're known as The Whites, The Green & Whites and The Blue & Whites respectively.
I don't think Animal would find any of them names irritating???
After all, Reading are not actually called Royal Reading FC.
