When will The Vinorium open after the long deserved Christmas & New Year break?
We are looking forward to welcoming you back at 11am on Friday 10th January 2014.
What is changing?
We have enormous plans for The Vinorium in the New Year... Firstly, we hope to establish our own smallholding of livestock - Highland cattle, rare breed pigs (The Middle White, Gloucester Old Spot to name a few) and sheep as we wish to produce food for you with assured provenance and quality (exactly what we search out with our wine).
We have been thinking about ways in which we can transform the ordinary (we firmly believe we are much better than the 'ordinary') into extraordinary. We believe we must work towards mastering our crafts. By thinking of ourselves as craftsmen, we can think of our work as our art and with this philosophy at the forefront of our thinking, some our staff will be sent off to spend time with other professional establishments in the hope that their new found knowledge will be shared and experienced with you, our customers.
We must also find a new home for our Gin Distillery and we are on the lookout for a new wine shop and restaurant at another location in Kent. Given the enormous task in hand, we thought we would take advantage of the winter quietness and revise our opening hours as follows (please be assured we will be back to a 5-6 day week towards the latter part of Spring).
Monday - Closed Tuesday - Closed Wednesday - Closed Thursday - Closed Friday - 11.00am - 10.00pm Saturday - 10.00am - 10.00pm Sunday - 10.00am - 4.00pm
Wishing you all a super Christmas and a truly fabulous New Year!
Cheers, Stuart & Team Vinorium

This is my site The FG that I set up in a fury of excitement when I first moved here sometime in '04. I had been a frequent visitor for a while previous to that but I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get now. This site was updated more frequently with a calendar of events and voting for favourite places + things, + I hear it was a useful reference for others who were moving here. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though just to Hythe) it doesn't get as much love as it used to. Ironic really as The town is now becoming the exciting place we knew it was about to become. My name is not Gerald by the way, this comes from the name of a pretend paper in an episode of The Day Today or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local newspaper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are GRATE aren't they? Do contact me if you have something to contribute, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
