Had lunch here today. I am sorry to say the food was absolutely dreadful. The service was poor to say the least. The place was empty with no atmosphere. Would not recommend this place to anyone and will never return.

The Vine is a nice, cosy pub. It's an attractive old building. It's a good place to go for a drink if you have been for a walk in the area.

Popped in here last night, had mixed experiences before but as it's our local and a lovely venue we thought we would pop in for some food. There were 2 staff behind the bar, one or 2 tables occupied and a couple of people sitting at the bar. As we walked in no one looked up/no sort of greeting. We stood at the bar whilst the 2 staff carried on their conversation with the people sat at the bar. It felt like we had walked into someone's house uninvited. After standing there for a few minutes we left and went to the Bat and Ball where you are always made to feel welcome. I guess that's why on a Friday night the Vine was empty.

A very traditional warm cosy country pub, attentive staff and good atmosphere. Food is great pub grub and definitely very good portions! Would highly recommend Sunday carvery and also to book as they had to turn people away. Double sided open fire just topped this experience off!

We were looking for somewhere different to go for Sunday Lunch and saw that The Vine were doing a carvery. Booked a table for 10 in advance, arrived on the day to a warm welcome from the staff. Called up to the carvery and was greeted by the chef who had a great choice of meats and vegetables which tasted fantastic. Ended with an apple crumble and custard. A great choice of venue, make sure you book beforehand, people were being turned away due to being fully booked. We will be back!!

Be aware that you can park in the Village Hall car park, which is directly beside The Vine. Highly recommended.

The food was absolutely excellent! Would recommend to everyone! And definitely not just a pub, but more like a gastropub. However, the service was very slow and we ended up waiting 1h for starters and another hour for mains to arrive. We are planning to come back in the next month or two - and hope that service will improve. With the correct help and more professional front of house staff, The Vine could become great!! A great start and the best of luck in succeeding and sustaining in these hard and challenging times.

This a beautiful pub in a very picturesque town. We heard great reviews from the locals and were very excited to have dinner there on a Saturday night. However we had a very disappointing experience. There was one table of three apart from my partner and I and no one else came in all evening. Food was bland. Butternut squash Dahl was comically bad. Mash potatoes consistency and zero flavor. Fish on the fish and chips was huge but tasted so blad. Chips portion was average for 20 pound main course and only just cooked through due to their "chunkiness". Floor is the toilet floor were soaking wet and frankly a slip hazard. Staff were pleasant and the venue is beautiful. I like to think we caught them on a bad night but we won't be back to test that theory.
