A very popular local ‘offie’, the Grape & Grain is a local well-established off-licence situated along the Badcox Shopping area of town. Set in a double-fronted store, the prices here are very reasonable, and the inside is a cornucopia of alcoholic delights! Watch out for speciality beers — a very interesting selection to be had. There are also great deals on champagne and sparkling wines usually to be found. There is a wide selection of wines, to suit every budget, along with spirits both usual and several more unusual ones. Ask at the counter inside for any party deals they might be having. As I recall, they used to do a glasses-for-hire service to help with parties and receptions etc. The Badcox car park is only a very short walk along the road, and if you’re lucky you might be able to bag a short-stop parking space outside to load up for any bulk buys.
