Winning selection of handpicked wines by a wine expert who spent 5+ years in France building his knowledge from the vines up. Bryan’s CAN DO attitude means that customer service is second to none.

Written by the company

Wine Monkey exists to bring together a collection of lesser-known craft wines that celebrate sustainability, whether environmental, human, economic and/or social, and to support the producers who see and care about the bigger picture. You name it, owner Bryan has done it: from marketing and brand management to retail and trade sales, wine tourism, wine education, e-commerce, digital marketing and sommelier, with multiple vintages under his belt both in the cellar and in the vineyard. Having worked his way through the vineyards of southern Oregon, the Loire, the Languedoc, the Rhône and the UK, he has developed a passion for “unique boutique” wines. Wine Monkey is all about bringing together and showcasing the incredible wines and producers that he’s gotten to know along the way. And now he's brought his knowledge and experience to Chippenham in a relaxed community-focused environment where guests can enjoy sustainable wines, artisan food, live events, and much more!

Very happy with my purchase and the service provided by Bryan.
I needed the wine the next day and got it on time for my dinner. I even got a nice little hand written message.
Will definitely order again

Hats off to the Wine Monkey!

Really great feel to this place. Wine and food are great (probably best charcuterie + cheese board ever) and the service just adds up to a brilliant evening at a reasonable price.

Ryan excellent service

Ryan, excellent service
Popped in for a quick glass of wine to round the evening off, asked our waiter Ryan for his suggestion, he recommended the cotes du rhone, we gave it a go, bearing in mind our wine preference leads towards new world, we tried Ryan’s suggestion and were not disappointed. Very knowledgeable and unpretentious, a refreshing experience. Will return again and looking forward to Ryan’s next recommendation. Lovely wine, lovely ambience, lovely experience. Highly recommended. Absolute gem of a place in Chippenham.
