About us
The owner, Norman Gover, has visited virtually every major wine producing area of the world. A former secretary of the West of England Wine and Spirits Association, Norman has an encyclopaedic knowledge of the industry. For him, little beats the satisfaction of having discovered a little gem – usually a small family wine producer hidden away in some far-flung corner of the world – and then bringing the fruits of his labour (or should that be love) back to The Little Tipple for its customers to enjoy.
In addition to offering its customers great wines, spirits and beers, the Little Tipple offers gift wrapping and packaging, excellent value seasonal wine cases, sale or return party plans (to save you from the embarrassment of running dry!), free 24 hour glass loan with wine orders, regular special offers, gift packs, and free local delivery. T&Cs apply.
Online purchases and deliveries are available but please call or email in the first instance for details and availability. Telephone 01275 392978 between 4pm and 7:45pm Tuesday to Saturday.
Free glass loan
When placing a party order for wine or beer you are eligible to take advantage of our free 24 hour glass loan service. A refundable £25 deposit per case against loss or breakage is required. Glasses will be provided washed but not polished and we prefer them to be returned clean and ready for re-use. If they are not, a cleaning charge of £2.50 per dozen will apply. Glasses are only available when you buy wine and beer befitting the loan (i.e. 12 bottles of wine would entitle you to borrow 72 glasses).
