NEWS! It's been taken over by the chef who used to work there, and he's done it up all by himself since August, and it looks much, much better. Even better he is out pricing the New Inn and hopefully will put such a dent in their trade that they will have to review their prices. New name for the Vinyard lodge is tHurst..good innit?

August 2012 - Closed down looks like it's being refurbished. There is something fundamentally wrong with this place, it should be able to succeed, good location (closest premises to large car park), good garden, village full of alcoholics. But, no one seems to be ble to make it work. The last lot had no clue how to run a licensed premises.

Under new management - again..... Now rebranding as an American diner retaining the name of the previous Tex Mex - The Three Amigos. This place has lots of potential, nice garden, very friendly staff and locals, no crisps though. Cheapest thing to eat is Nachos - or it was about a month ago - �5. That's no good is it? Needs decent bitter, move the bar so there is more seating at the wider part of the building, and attract drinkers not eaters. Good luck to the new owners...Harveys should do it....

Have eaten here twice recently and found the food fantastic just about managed to nail a full rack of ribs would definitely recommend them.Found the staff pleasent and efficient .

This wine bar has recently been taken over and they have turned it into a bar and Tex Mex restaurant. Great food and cheap too - good lively atmosphere - worthwhile putting on your pub crawl especially if you want to have a bite to eat at the same time. Still got the B&B above and the room I stayed in was clean & tidy Lovelty friendly staff and a very warm welcome Give it a go!

We had to apologise for recommending Vinyard Lodge as a place to stay. Our guests had to ask for toilet paper to be made available in the bathroom. The shower operation was faulty. After giving the chef a the best room, which had been booked, management then tried to overcharge on the bill. If you stay here take your own toilet paper, don't bank on being able to shower and take a copy of the booking confirmation with the room rate. Better still book elsewhere, alternative accomodation is available.

Currently going through a sticky patch. Guests receive an offhand reception. A room booked months ago by our relatives was given to the new chef. Further comment pending.

Good food - staff OK, beer a bit expensive - not enough room for a Gentleman's drunken evening - good on a day time sojourn
|
good food and friendly staff - beer selection's not all that but the wine is fine. Not really ideal for drinking in a pub sense, but fine for pre dinner drinks.
