The Wine Vaults is a walk down memory lane. It reminds me and the husband of the days when we were free of...
1. A mortgage
2. A job
3. Money
He was a student in Portsmouth and we'd go to the Wine Vaults and have the classic combination of:-
1. Deep Fried Brie and Redcurrant Jelly
2. Chilli Nachos to share
So, we took a day trip down on the train to Pompey and you can guess where we ended up and what we ate. It was lovely and fresh, particularly (2) as they had completely forgotten to make it, and after about 30 mins, I enquired, and the meal was created in about 60 seconds, and swilled down with our complimentary drinks.
Food: fantastic
Service: forgetful this time, but usually immaculate
Ale: apparently nice, light and slightly vanilla-y
Though we have all three of the former, the experience was warm and fuzzy, and completely carefree.
