"A big thank you to Annabel and John for providing us with a perfect venue, along with super food and drink for over 100 guests at our wedding reception. Set in such a beautiful location, our guests were able to park easily in the private paddock, take a 5 minute stroll to Blewbury’s 12th century church for the ceremony, past cob walls, streams and fields. Returning through the private hobbit gate and meadow to the garden, we had a magical time. Everything was so accessible and ran so smoothly, despite a short rain shower! Some of our guests were able to stay at the Red Lion too and enjoyed comfortable well presented rooms. The hard work beforehand to made the accomodation, gardens, paddock, and meadow look so lovely, didn’t go unnoticed. Thank you for a fabulous day. Jackie Guy"

"I have had a few take away meals from The Vine Spice and enjoyed them, so my wife and I treated friends to a meal at the restaurant there. Sadly and surprisingly I was extremely disappointed. One of our friend 's found that the chicken in their meal was undercooked (it was still pale pink and highlighted this to staff. It was taken away and a replacement given. The chicken in this was cooked fine, but the sauce was now much more watery and lacked flavour due to this (the other had a nice, thick creamy sauce . My wife and I are both vegan and member of staff taking our order didn 't seem too sure what this meant. During our meal, we had 3 different members of staff coming up asking us the same questions rather than one member of staff being given responsibility for this role. All the staff were very polite, but it was a little disconcerting to be trying to have a conversation only for another member of staff interrupt to ask a question asked a few minutes previously (e.g. whether everything was alright, whether we required any more drink etc. Our vegan curries had several hard pieces of veg (we don 't overcook our veg and enjoy a slight bite to them, but numerous bits of veg were virtually raw and must 've been chucked into the sauce moments before dishing up and my wife found some onion with the root still attached. Also, I did find the meal to be expensive for what you get. Given this experience, I won 't be getting any more meals from The Vine Spice ."

"Overall we had a good time visiting here. Booked a table for 3 and was welcomed by a friendly member of staff and got us seated. Service was excellent and the food came out quickly. The food is on the pricey side. I ordered a caesar salad however it was very hard to eat! The type of lettuce they used was very just difficult to put on my fork. The other 2 I was with had a roast but the veg was rock hard and same for the potatoes. We ordered desserts which was excellent but sadly they forgot my coffee and remembered as everyone finished their desserts so I cancelled the coffee. But that was handled politely. Beautiful inside and outside has a great garden. Wouldn’t go out my way to visit again."

"I haven’t had Thai food for a while and was staying nearby in the local area. The Blueberry looks like your typical country pub from the outside. Inside though, at the rear of the pub is Chor Muang Thai Gastro. This is more like it, authentic Thai food made by Thai chefs. What a delight to find a gastro pub in a sleepy village in the Oxfordshire countryside. I was seated at 6 pm on a Friday evening, as usual I never booked, just took a chance. Perfect timing as only one table was occupied, a party of five who were dining in the top far corner of the restaurant. For the starter, I ordered the honey pork marinated in coriander, soya sauce, palm sugar and honey. It came with a tangy chilli dip. For the main, the red curry with duck which had a rich fruity taste from lychee, pineapple, cherry tomatoes and basil. Sticky rice was the perfect accompaniment. Finally the Thai pancake with coconut ice cream and mixed berry compote sauce for desert. The service was excellent and the staff very professional, attentive and welcoming. I had Madri lager brought from the pub to my table. I was informed they also had bottles of Singha. However, I opted for the on trend lager of the moment. The ambiance, décor and lighting was perfect. The food tasted delicious, no need for details, just to say was faultless. As I was finishing my pancake, the restaurant was starting to get busy. Couples, families were being shown their tables they had booked. So it was perfect timing, for me to settle my bill and tip the waitress. I headed to the bar still holding my second glass of Madrid's finest lager. The staff greeted you with a smile and were very friendly. My only gripe was a large screen showing horse racing which nobody was paying attention to. A gastro pub like this is a place for conversation and banter. The screen just kills the vibe, totally unnecessary. Also two large red setters in the pub taking up loads of room. They almost knock customers over. It's very cosy, people were playing cards which I loved. Locals chatted on a large round table near the window and two twenty somethings sat on bar stools talking nonsense. A great start to the weekend, recommended."

"the staff was nice, friendly and very helpful. we have sunk outside under the pergola, which gave us a little protection from the sun. They pampered us on our needs and the food was excellent, we all had the sea bass filled with crab and soft cheese, garnel, pink pfeffer mais on a bed vegetables and a separate bowl with lemon taste rice. we all chose different desserts, but I had the cream brulle and it was divinely very creamy, smooth and the taste of vanilla with every mouthful come. I could have eaten twice."
