The Vine Inn in Cannock Chase

Great local boozer with homebrewed ales and a selection of homemade rums and gins 👌🏼 Landlady is lovely, and drinks are super reasonable prices.

Good atmosphere good ale very friendly and most certainly dog friendly really enjoy our time there

Great boozer and very dog friendly

We didn't have there food but pleased with the venue for birthday party using disco lights and speakers etc staff could not do enough to help atmosphere great.

Great selection of their own brewed ales Most enjoyable visit

Discovered this pub by chance on Sunday afternoon. What a delight! Excellent choice of ales in a proper pub. Friendly staff and customers. Hope to return soon with a good friend.

We all had a great birthday party 🎉 for my sons 21st, up stairs venue was just the job 👍 for us. Big thanks to all the team at the Vine

Excellent pub with lots of choice

We went to their pop punk tribute night, which was one of their Upstairs at the Vine gigs. It was a lot of fun, and the place has a really welcoming atmosphere. I'm now following their Facebook page to see more events in future, as we well definitely be back!

Friendly owner good selection of own brood beers

Lovely pub in Rugeley. Friendly staff.

Cheerful friendly staff add to the great atmosphere. Excellent range of real ale which is brewed on the premises. Choice of hot flat breads and panini make a welcome change from the usual pub cobs.

A lovely little pub. Friendly atmosphere always love returning

Always very welcoming staff, atmosphere is always a happy one

Excellent local pub. Excellent staff and beers brewed on site

Very nice local brewery in a quirky old style house.

Arrived not long before closing. The food was not nice. Some things not available or cleared away.

Great pub, friendly atmosphere own ales and gins plus food

Good beer brewed on the premises. Will definitely go back next time I visit Rugeley.

Friendly pub, plenty of places to sit.

Great local pub with a great selection of beers and friendly staff

Friendly bar staff serving real ale made on the premises, well priced beers and food, worth a return visit.

A real traditional pub that brews it's own beer slowly upgrading the pub

Fantastic real pub, best in the town. They brew their on beers and I tried the 'session ale' at 3.6%, I know a low ABV but full of flavour. Also basic food available, paninis sandwiches and toasties. I had the cheese & onion toastie and only £1.50!! As cheap as a packet of crisps in some establishments. Staff are great especially Helen. TRY IT!

Friendly staff and good price on the beers first time there . To see vicious nature and they we're great band

Lovely place for a drink nice atmosphere

Great atmosphere, reasonable prices and friendly staff. Recommended

With its own brewery on site and a selection of fine Ales this is a great place to visit. Has a range of infused gins and other spirits too! Friendly staff. Also doing quiz nights on some Mondays, open mic on occasional Sundays, with live music some Saturdays!! Better pop in and check what's on

Great little old fashioned place with a friendly welcome, they also cook food and have a free house for your lagers to ales, loved it.

Friendly staff, great atmosphere, and they put on very entertaining music nights

What a fantastic pub! Really friendly, well kept ale, tasty snacks and 5* for the ladies loo!

Lovely pub with a great atmosphere and an awesome real fire to kep you warm in the cold

My first visit and very impressed. Proper traditonal pub selling great condition real ales, some from their own on-site brewery. A warm welcome from bar staff (and the real fire), and friendly locals. Will be back for sure.

Sound pub, rock music, decent beer and people. Old times room at the front and occasionally bands playing ipstairs. Has a decent microbrewery too. Always been a good place this one (new pool cues needed though).

Was not expecting such a warm welcoming hospitality, lovely home brewed offerings and a delicious panini to boot. Traveling up the Trent & Mersey and needed to stop for shopping and laundry, and stopped in for a pint while the clothes were washing. I thought OK, I’ll stop and have another while they’re drying, which turned into a 3rd once the clothes were all finished, and a single malt whisky from a patron. Kudos to Helen for making me feel at-home across the ocean and the patrons evidently enjoying the warmth of a fire and each others company on a chilly October evening.

Lovely staff and great drinks. Good place to relax with some mates after work

Great own brewed ales, friendly service and welcoming atmosphere. One of Rugeley's hidden jems. Pool table and outside seating are a plus for this tucked away old school town pub.

Fab staff, lovely atmosphere and lovely drinks. The food was good too. Thank you for making a sad day a good day

Vanilla Porter and a black pudding sausage roll. Perfection.

Had the guys at the vine provide the bar for a friend's wedding. Great service and prices, and loaded in and out exactly when they said they would, saving the groom a load of stress. Would hire again without a second thought.

Absolutely a fantastic friendly local pub with own mico brewery & delicious food

Have been in for a drink several times but had never tried the food. I had a burger and my husband had a bratwurst, both were excellent. Will definitely be eating there again and will try one of their speciality food nights which apparently run every 3 weeks.

Fab atmosphere, great beer and banging food! Love this place ❤

A great friendly pub frequented by locals with well known local and own beers. Food also served.

Excellent. Good selection of home brewed beers, so good I had to have another one. Friendly and welcoming, made more so by the staff.

Visited here today whilst in the area visiting family and had the most lovely warm welcome, did a quick google search for Dog Friendly pubs as I had my baby staffy with me & this was the top recommended and (unplanned) i was already parked outside as I’d been to walk my dog in the park opposite. The staff were all lovely, service was 11/10, the food was outstanding (i’m a very fussy eater) and I honestly could not fault the food, I had the buttermilk chicken burger with bacon and cheese & everything was perfect. The locals in there were also a credit to the pub, didn’t have much cash on me but left a tip with whatever cash I had left, I would’ve given more if I could’ve, I honestly cannot recommend this pub enough to anybody, whether you’re from the area or not, I definitely recommend paying a visit.

The only beers on offer tonight were home brewed. They were brilliant. My Bruv says they were voted best micro brewery in the Midlands. I can believe that. I've never seen the place as packed as tonight. It's reputation grows.

Can not say to much about it 🤣🤣🤣

Friendly quaint pub with fantastic ales and great food. Very welcoming staff. Will be returning

This is the Oasis in Rugeley next to the small Red Lion. Brewing it's own beer. The selection caters for all tastes. Food is a basic unpretentious menu which complimnts the ambiance of the hostelry! I really recommend this place!!!!!

Brilliant ... couldn't fault the food or the service even going the extra mile for our grandkids. Thankyou for the last two nights made the occasions very special

Brilliant if staying at the travel lodge. Basic menu but had an absolutely fantastic burger with best chips ever. Ate outside in the courtyard. Sadly felt quite at risk listening to 2 lads talking on the table next to me. Didn't finish my food and left in a hurry. Probably just a chance encounter but nonetheless took the shine off a great pint and a tasy burger.

First time in this place and was made very welcome The real ale was amazing and the food was completely different to the usual pub chains. Will we go back, you can be sure of it

A Micro brewery with a good atmosphere, That brews excellent beer, what more could you ask for.

Great traditional pub, good food and beer, friendly staff.

Great old school pub, beer was excellent as was the food. Recommended.

What a great afternoon/evening we spent here last night with new friends. A good range of beers are brewed on the premises - we gave the Ruby Ale an extended test and it certainly passed! The waitress was friendly and chatty and looked after us beautifully for 4 hours, keeping us supplied with beer and wine and even organising a local pizza delivery to the table for us so we didn't need to bring the fun to a premature end! Highly recommended for good beer, a good atmosphere and top service from the staff.

Love this place! Gin is to die for and has all the proper pub snacks to go with it! We always meet together with the family as the beer is amazing and so are the friendly and hard working staff! A proper good pub! Keep up the good work guys

Visited The Vine for the first time on Wednesday 14 July 2021 late on a sunny afternoon. We parked in the shade alongside the nearby Elmore Park and walked across the road to The Vine Inn. The main door is to the right of what appears to be the pub with the front of the building hidden under a lush growth of 'Vine type vegetation. The building with the sign and looking pub like is at present occupied by the kitchen and the brewery. A kindly lady behind the bar escorted me outside to view the brewery through the window . We were signed by the lady behind the bar and sanitised our hands before being given the choice of where to sit. The Vine Inn has numerous rooms and seating outside in a rear drinking area. We sat in the main bar room which runs across the front of the right hand side. We had a lovely drink of The Vine Vanilla Porter ( £3 a pint !) and then tried a half of the stronger Ruby Mild ( still £3 a pint ) both brewed on the premises. They do 5 of their own brews and also put on a draught Bass when they can get hold of it ! We enjoyed the Vanilla Porter so much that I went back to the car for a carry out container ( I always take a carry with me in the car ) and bought 2 more pints to enjoy when we got home. We spent nearly 2 hours talking to two other couples, who were also Camra ( Campaign for real ale) about times and beers past . A lovely friendly and sociable place with a great selection of real ales, great service and customers. 5* and added to my favourites a must to return to . Intrigued by the Grapefruit IPA .

Good food good beer and Bloody good people

Feel very safe in there doing things down to a t very impressed

Fantastic traditional pub which serves equally fantastic home cooked food.

Nice atmosphere. Good prices. Now does amazing food.

Amazing place with amazing staff. Lovely decor with original beams showing throughout the pub. Open fire in main room roaring through winter, plenty of seating outside. Prices are very fair Staff cant do enough to make you feel welcome. Best pub in my personal opinion inside Rugeley.

This is hands down the best pub I have ever been too, I wish I didn't live 100 miles away so it could be my local!! Staff were amazing, so attentive and friendly - going above and beyond so that me and my friends were looked after (they even went as far as to give us a lift back to our campsite when there were no taxis!!) had a banging cucumber gin with elderflower tonic, it was spot on. Thank you all so much, will be definitely paying a visit when I'm next in the area!

Great little place, really working hard to give people something different. All the best to them, will definitely be going back

Lovely with a warm welcome, bosting staff and amazing food for a bargin price.. Good tasty beers on tap and couldn't ask for a better gin selection defiantly worth the visit. This is definitely one of the must go to for both a quick pint and a homely meal.

Excellent neighbourhood pub. Good range of craft (and real) beers. Old fashioned menu in a good way. Hot pork pie, bacon chops , slow cooked shin just some examples from the menu. Bench seating provides convivial atmosphere. Thoroughly recommended.

Oh my really loved the rhubarb gin. They also had delicious ham salad crusty cobs.

Traditional pub, no frills, log fire, good beer and friendly staff.

Excellent pub. Friendly staff great beer and nice home made chips.

Great pub, friendly with a wide selection of drinks.

Great pub, great atmosphere and the drinks are a great price!

Lovely old traditional but ,a good mild brewed on the premises

Excellent staff and beer and gin

Excellent service and very welcoming pub

Great bank holiday BBQ. Really impressed with the food.

Really nice pub go.od atmosphere friendly staff 1st rate, good choice of beers and quirky spirits

Really nice pub, lovely atmosphere. Delicious food and decent prices.

Love the vine, the staff are brilliant and friendly. The building is always clean. They have a huge selection of wines, spirits, beers and soft drinks and even brew their own. You are doing a fabulous job Oli.

To cold can not get any heat from the fire due 1 person always standing in front of it. The Bar Staff are good people and are always there to help or answer questions. Good atmosphere with the locals.

Great little local pub with drinks sold at reasonable prices. Good selection of locally produced flavoured gins/vodkas. Friendly staff. Nice beer garden in good weather.

Really poor Guinness but decent ales

Great Pub. If you go at new year you will meet the famous " Rob Dauncey"!

Best dukebox in town. Ale a bit dodgy, best stick to spirits!

You're always on to a winner when a pub has an attached brewery and the 2 beers on, both porters, were excellent. A great unaltered building with lots of history, friendly staff/customers and cycle friendly. The pay off from cycling is discovering gems like the Vine Inn.

Best place for own brewed drinks

Very dated and very much of a locals pub ,friendly enough though

The vine has been amazing location friendly staff always welcome would recommend highly

Amazing little pub very friendly with wonderful staff

I was expecting dick turpin to pull up on his horse.like stepping back in time.

The vine Inn is a great pub I would come again and again love it

Great pub been drinking there for 7 years they even brew there own alcohol inside the pub is cozy has a fire inside for then cold nights has a front and back bar which carter's for different ages best pub in rugeley by far

This pub has so much to offer, I don't know where to start. They have tables out the front facing the park and a beer garden out the back of which 1/3rd Is covered, they accept dogs and often have bags provided to clean up after your pet. The vine has a few rooms, in the back they have a pool table, darts board and juke box, the snug has cozy sofas with access to the bar and the main bar has a log fire. The vine is a beautiful old building, one of the oldest in the town and it now has a micro brewery which produces it's own ales, gins and vodkas
