Vine Inn

We visited for a evening meal with friends . Our friends enjoyed there meal. My husband and I ordered the crab cake for starters. When it was served we both eate it and both said it tasty of potato but hardly any crab and there wasnt much of a sauce with it. My husband ordered Thai green curry with chicken. When he took his first bite the chilli was so hot and so much chilli cut over it all that it burnt his throat. He couldn't eat it and he told the waitress but nothing was done. My husband is used too eating madras but the amount of hot chilli added to this dish was ridulous. We were charged for the unadible meal and my husband went home hungry. Personally if it had been my meal I would have refused to pay for it or I would have expected another meal should have been offered.

I found this to be a very nice pub and the food was really good for the price. Public wasn't rowdy , quite pleasant really. Service was ok , I'm assuming that they were very busy as waiting for the drinks order with our meal ( I thought they had forgotten us) also we was waiting for ordering the puddings after and this was a bit of a wait that we changed our minds ( over 25 minutes) I would definitely go again. I don't think anyone would be disappointed.

Only stopped for a cold beer on a meltingly hot day. The pub is nicely set out. Friendly staff, we made our way to the garden. What an oasis. Almost continental feel to it. You can sit in the covered shaded area (us) or in the open. Ok, we didn't eat here, but drooled at some of the dishes coming out!

We enjoyed a delicious meal at The Vine. The menu was wide and varied, offering a selection of traditional and modern dishes (mine was a delightful 3 culture fusion of cajun chicken, king prawns and linguine). Also, we received prompt service throughout. It's the sort of place you just wish was in your own village.

Food nice. I had confit duck leg which was delicious and the gravy thick and packet with flavour. But it came with a confit potato which was just a potato which had never seen any butter or stock. There was also a pile of wet & soggy overcooked spinach - quite unappetising. I then asked for the cheese board and a glass of port. No cheese and no port! On the good side The Vine is a friendly place with a good atmosphere and all the waiting staff were proficient and attentive.
