The pub is actually in the middle of the green where the road forks.
Directions from the M4:
Take Junction 10 (Reading and Bracknell) and join the A329 towards Bracknell.
Come off at the Binfield / Wokingham junction (Coppid Beech round-a-bout) and take the first exit towards Binfield.
Go straight over the next round-a-bout.
At the lights go straight through the first set and then left at the second set immediately after the first.
Follow this road to a mini round-a-bout (if you're in the right place a pub called the Royal Standard will be on your right)
Turn right at this round-a-bout and follow the road down the hill.
The Stag will be on your left.
If you get to Wyevale garden centre and go over a hump back bridge then you've gone too far.
Directions from the M3:
Take Junction 3 for Bracknell. At the round-a-bout at the top of the slip road take the third exit onto the A322 towards Bagshot and Bracknell.
Continue on this road towards Bracknell going stright over the Coral Reef round-a-bout, straight thorugh the lights at the Sainsbury round-a-bout, and straight on at the Sports Centre round-a-bout.
At the next round-a-bout a Harvester (well I think it's still a Harvester) called the Horse and Groom should be on your right. Take the third exit towards the town centre.
At the next round-a-bout take the first exit which will take you down the hill past the railway station on your left.
At the end follw the road as it bears round to the left. You should be able to see The Point on the left.
At the next round-a-bout take the third exit and then the second exit at the next round-about. You should now be on Binfield Road.
Follow the road to the end where you will need to take the first exit at the round-a-bout.
At the next round-a-bout take the second exit. If you've got it right you should pass a rather sizeable house on your left (apparently owned by the Sultan of Brunei but I've never seen him pop into the pub for a drink).
At the junction just after this turn left (this is Forest Road).
Go over the hump back bridge (on coming traffic has right of way) and then you should be able to see the Stag in front of you.
Once you get there - regardless of which direction you come from:
When you get to the pub park your car, come inside, and have a drink. Chances are you'll need it after negotiating all those round-a-bouts.
