Welcome

Welcome to the Old Village Inn, where every visitor is a local and every local is our guest.

Nestled in the heart of Bembridgeโ€™s old high street, this quirky traditional styled building is reputed to have been serving pints since 1787. These days, Landlord Jay Chapman (a Fellow Associate of the BII) is continuing this fine tradition and sources real ales form across the country to ensure there are always four on the pump and an ever-changing selection.

Itโ€™s not just excellent ales and wines that the Village offers. Home cooked food is served all day, every day. Our main pub menus are complemented with an extensive specials board using locally sourced produce.

The Old Village Inn remains faithful to the community and sources produce locally wherever possible. The Farm Shop typically provides fruit and vegetables along with other โ€˜secretโ€™ ingredients. Over the road is Woodfords the Butchers who are an institution in Bembridge. Our chefs work closely with them to source the best cuts of meat available throughout the year.

The Old Village Inn really is a pub with the community at the forefront of everything it does, we look forward to welcoming youโ€ฆ

#day342 Fish ๐ŸŸ & Chip ๐ŸŸ night great success thanks to all who booked. Loved the app purchase Gavin Fraser nice to see Ruby Janet Head and many more. Getting outside ready abs the team discussing menus was the thought of the evening. Massive thanks to you all, some pictures of my time in Germany as Bastian was taking me to a bar that ended up being a tennis court club in the snow, the excuse was we couldnโ€™t play tennis ๐ŸŽพ, like I would anyways ๐Ÿ˜‚ so we have to drink ๐Ÿบ and play cards. Love it. But we actually left the house to play tennis ๐ŸŽพ. Then it was 9 people in a VW oh my ๐Ÿ˜‚. My connection with Coburg and 151 is for ever. Hence why we have attempted 4th delivery ๐Ÿšš to Germany ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช via the actual Sugar Rush Confectionery company on the IOW to see if they can get round this dreaded customs ๐Ÿ›ƒembargo of sending sweets back .... BoJo is this what you envisaged? ๐Ÿ‘Ž ๐Ÿ˜’. It is what it is so weโ€™ll see if itโ€™s 4th time lucky ๐Ÿ€. Have a good one ana weโ€™ll see you at the weekend. Keep the bookings coming in for April as the seats abs spaces are going fast. โ˜Ž๏ธ 872616 speak to Gypsy or Kevin Rust super ๐ŸŒŸ publican by night builders helper by day, keeping us going to make your day.

#day334 to #337. Gosh Iโ€™m so sorry. My head exploded ๐Ÿคฏ. Just needed to break away for a couple of days and put my mind in a place of organised peace โ˜ฎ๏ธ. The daily blog is important to me, but more importantly reminds me when itโ€™s โ€˜down a bitโ€™ that can lend me to rant. And thatโ€™s not how I wanted to be. The time away has fixed all vexation and the โ˜€๏ธ is shining. Coming back to the OVi today and working and laughing ๐Ÿ˜† with good friends has made for a brighter future. Thanks to all. Rebuilding festival field made for a very happy community publican. I had appreciated how down it had made me feel with everting upside down. With my favourite No.3 at my side in my hole ๐Ÿ•ณ had to dig with a baby shovel and baby fork ๐Ÿด from the green house as Fred remembered that we had put power down there ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿฝ ๐Ÿ˜‚ so while the man that canโ€™t be named William Mark Skeldon played with the big breaker for his holes ๐Ÿ•ณ 2 while I did my one ๐Ÿ˜‚ he said I needed guns ๐Ÿ’ช I said I had a ๐Ÿ”ซ but it was only a toy one. Just take more ๐Ÿ’Š and think of opening ๐Ÿ˜‚ itโ€™s the only way. The โ˜€๏ธ out made a massive difference to the job. He even went to shirts by the afternoon compete with ๐Ÿ˜Ž. Then after a few barrows back and forth from Bembridge Building Supplies fence panels, posts, concrete, screws and much more we were all set. She starting to ๐Ÿ‘€ good. Moving BoHo shows us how we can capture the sun โ˜€๏ธ in he middle of the festival field opposite the bar. Itโ€™s going to great for โ˜€๏ธ shine drinking with some tunes from DJ Kizza Kieren Chapman & Gobby ๐Ÿบ. I can feel the vibe now. Ahhh relaxed ๐Ÿ˜Œ ๐ŸŽต ๐Ÿบ ๐Ÿ’ฌ to friends watching football โšฝ๏ธ and the Euros ๐Ÿ’ถ nice ๐Ÿ‘ itโ€™s going to be great. New toilet ๐Ÿšฝ block goes up next week then we finish the roof on the OVi secret ๐Ÿคซ garden ๐Ÿชด (so secret ๐Ÿค the man who cannot be named didnโ€™t even know it was going to be built ๐Ÿ˜‚) massive thanks to Bryn Turner for all the general laughs and making the teams life easier with over all steady support from Ben Evans. Gypsy on the tea and Danny Allen on the most amazing breakfast ๐Ÿณ ever. Ben need to learn to eat ๐Ÿ… ๐Ÿ„ ๐Ÿณ & white & black pudding and basically food ๐Ÿ˜‚ as William might just had well had two breakfast. So funny. Then maths ๐Ÿงฎ oh the maths Max Chapman but it was great fun being with favourite No.2 son after I fixed his ๐Ÿšฒ, Tyreโ€™s pumped abs seat raised as heโ€™s getting so tall abs growing up. Going to have to look at another bike soon. Thanks to all for your amazing support with the fish ๐ŸŸ and hand cut chips ๐ŸŸ on Wednesday massive response ๐Ÿ˜Š orders coming in for Saturday service. It all really does help to keep us going at with the last lap of these next 80 days then back to normal wow ๐Ÿคฉ canโ€™t wait xx ... See MoreSee Less
