In October 2008, the Terrace Café reopened as Charlotte's Kitchen, run by Charlotte Lampard - shown on the right in the apron, with her helper Rose Chanin on the left.

Charlotte's Kitchen serves a range of light meals using local food ingredients - and will continue the tradition of sourcing local food and cooking local ingredients simply and seasonally where possible. The Kitchen is licensed, has a light, cheerful and airy contemporary feel, and can seat up to 30 people inside (and 20 outside).

Charlotte's Kitchen is open when the Vineyard is, currently that's every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 6th March 2009, from 11am to 4pm each day.

Outside the Kitchen you'll find the Terrace, an absolute suntrap where you can pass away an hour or two sipping a glass of rosé, and nibbling on one of the Kitchen's famous light lunches, with its emphasis on the seasonal, the simple and the local. We can seat another 20 people on the Terrace.

From the Terrace you get fantastic views down the Exe valley towards Exeter and the sea, and closer at hand lovely picturesque views over the vineyard to the village at Bickleigh, with cricket on the green, thatched pubs and the wonderful old bridge over the Exe.
