The Griffin Inn has been owned by the Pullan family since 1979. During that time, we have built up an inn with a fantastic atmosphere comprising delicious locally sourced food, finest real local ales, a renowned wine list, roaring log fires, stunning garden views and finally thirteen beautiful individually designed bedrooms.

You will not be surprised to learn that an awful lot of “research & development” goes into selecting the 120 odd wines on our award winning wine list. Wherever possible, we seek out unusual and interesting wines, often from lesser known regions. We have always loved the diversity of Italy and we are currently enthralled by some stunning new Spanish wines. |

|
We offer 20 wines by the glass and we are delighted to “cork up” any unfinished bottle. In addition, each month we select a couple of interesting and eclectic wines to promote. Please do get out of your comfort zone and try them. Following is the bar wine list, or download the full wine menu with the button below. |
