Inviting somebody to break bread is an act of hospitality, like when a strongman breaks his door in half so you can come inside. Share a meal with this Groupon.

Choose Between Two Options

  • $39 for two entrées and two drinks (up to a $78 total value)
  • $75 for four entrées and four drinks (up to a $156 total value)

The menu includes entrées (up to a $23 value each) of rigatoni with braised short ribs, caramelized onion, and aged balsamic vinegar or pan-seared salmon with leeks and shiitake mushrooms. The wine-and-beer menu includes glasses of the 2009 Edmeades Mendocino zinfandel ($11) and 750-milliliter bottles of the hearty Speedway stout ($16).

The Vine Cottage

Exposed wooden rafters and cobblestone walls create the rustic ambiance that The Vine Cottage’s name promises, but the menu adds dimension to this theme with a contemporary take on Mediterranean and American staples. The chefs value sustainably produced meals, so they seek out seasonal, organic, and locally sourced ingredients whenever possible. These ingredients lend vibrant flavors to the menu’s flatbread-style pizzas, hearty pasta dishes, and grilled steaks. Housemade duck leg confit and remoulade also help to create a dining experience that is homey yet refined, much like the artwork-laden refrigerator in Monet’s childhood home.

The Groupon Guide to: A Rendezvous with Your Bosom Buddy

A happenstance rendezvous with a beloved bosom buddy can be the spoonful of sugar in an otherwise unseemly world. Here are some best-to-be-heeded tips to making the most out of an encounter with your beloved companions:

  • Make sure to bring plenty of nibbles for both you and your chumly bud’s tummies. Some teatime sandwiches like some Cucumber Babyfingers or Little Ham Lords should do, and why not some salted fudge for after-meal yums?

  • Appreciate nature with your cherished accomplice. Enjoy an après-lunch learnabout through an educational garden or listen to the songs of the whippoorwills. Just try not to cry at their resplendent beauty.

  • Take your prized pal for a ride in your coupe. Adhere to the speed limits to avoid a talking-to and bring a taffeta scarf for you and your sweet compatriot.

  • Play the harp together!

  • It would just be velvet-on-vicars to watch the Sunday football match with your prince of friends, would it not? I think the Chiefs really have a chance this year if Cassel can show up and Jamaal Charles can’t bounce back from his surgery. It’s gonna be a bruiser…

Here’s how to be a big weirdo.

  • The calamari was amazing, the burger (according to my BF) was one of the best he's had, and the Fish and Chips were delicious!
