A message from the Thornsberry family

Many of you who have visited The Oak & Vine are longtime friends, and each day we’ve been open we’ve been fortunate to make new ones. It has been an incredible experience for our family!

Our longtime friends know the journey our family has been on. Seven years ago, my wife Deanna was diagnosed with a glioblastoma brain tumor and given a prognosis of 12–15 months. Deanna, an RN, chose to fight it and she became a walking miracle.

Along the way, our family, friends, and especially her fellow nurses and doctors rallied around her. Despite the challenges, we’ve been blessed to share so many of life’s best moments together. Deanna, our boys, and I have always refused to let glioblastoma define our lives or keep us from living them fully. Opening The Oak & Vine was part of that.

Unfortunately, the fight has taken a heavy toll on Deanna. Two days ago, she aspirated food into her lungs and developed pneumonia. She is now too weak to fight it, and we have made the difficult decision to focus on keeping her comfortable and peaceful. We don’t know how much time we have left, but we believe it may be only a few days.

The Oak & Vine will remain closed this week so we can be together as a family. We will reopen when the time is right.

Thank you for your friendship, prayers, love, and understanding. They mean more to our family than we can express.

Marv and the Thornsberry family

What an awesome turnout we had last night! We very much appreciate the returning customers and all the first time people who came in to check us out. The staff worked really hard but had a lot of fun doing it. A big shout out to Brittany one of our newest bartenders. We put her through some pretty extensive training and last night was her first time ever bartending live with customers and a full house to boot, she rocked it! Amanda one of our most experienced, was very complimentary of her.
Don’t forget today we start opening Sunday’s 12:30 pm - 5:00 pm. We will have the Bengals game on at 1:00 pm and we have the Sunday NFL Ticket for the other games. Hope to see you there!

A big thank you to all of you who stopped in for our second weekend, and those of you who came back after our grand opening last week. We appreciate it very much. The IU game crowd Friday night was great too, especially with the Hoosiers coming out with the win ✌🏼 Most everything has gone really well so far and we appreciate all the positive feedback and compliments. We have had a few very good suggestions too and we will work them as we will always be open to improving. As promised we will be expanding our open days. Starting next Sunday we will be open every Sunday from 12:30 pm - 5:00 pm for the 1:00 NFL games. We will feature the Bengals games as well as the Colts whenever possible. We will also have the Sunday NFL Ticket for the out-of-market games. If you haven’t been, please stop in and give us a try!

We need a little help from our patrons from last weekend. We were so busy making sure that we got it right that we neglected to take a few pictures. If any of you that were there took one or two and don’t mind sending them to us via messenger, we would love to have copies. If you send them but don’t want us to post them, just say so, but would like to have them for us.

Thank you

Below is what we’ve received so far! Thank you!

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to check us out during our Grand Opening Weekend. The best part of it, besides all of you who stopped in, the bar and kitchen staff rocked it! I hope we measured up to your expectations. Celeste Manriquez sent me the original of this video she took so I could repost it here. Estella is her granddaughter.

The Day is finally upon us! After all the delays and the hard work, we are finally ready for our Grand Opening. We thank all of you who have been following us. We also owe a big thank you to the following local businesses who helped us. First and foremost Williams Remodeling, Inc. They built our home and now rebuilt the inside of our business! They are second to none and they guarantee every bit of their work—it shows! We also owe a debt of gratitude to these businesses: Levensteins Abbey Carpet, Brian Wenning, Sunshine Sisters Plant Shop, Twisted Land Services LLC., Rowland Graphics LLC, CD's Mobile Auto Wash, Pro-Prints Sign Imaging LLC, 420 West Woodworks, Candyland Creations and More, for their products and services.

During our Soft Opening we will be open Thursday, Friday, and Saturday for the next few weeks. We will also have limited food offerings. Our hours will be 3:30 pm-11:00 pm. When we are ready we will expand our days and offerings.

As promised, when our soft opening is over, we will begin featuring our partner Viji's Kitchen and Catering. We are very excited about this relationship and what we will bring to the already successful downtown Batesville area. We had some unexpected hurdles to get over and thanks to Viji’s determination and the kitchen we built, our partnership has been approved by the State of Indiana and Ripley County Health Departments. Please come in and help us celebrate! We have put together an awesome staff and will strive to do our best everyday! You are welcome in to try some of our signature cocktails, the Italian / California / Local wines, and the beers we have selected.
