My wife and I had a fantastic lunch at The Vine today! I ordered the steak, and it was cooked perfectly being tender, juicy and exactly how I like it. My wife had the lasagne and she said it was absolutely delicious, full of flavour and perfectly baked. The atmosphere was lovely, and the staff were very welcoming. We'll definitely be coming back again and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great meal out.

This is a great little gem of a cafe it is moderately priced, staff are very helpful, a wide variety of food on menu. I ordered the pancakes which came with berries, maple syrup and ice cream, cooked well with a hood portion of everything. The atmosphere is lively for a cafe as it is not too bright making it more comfortable.

Amazing place; first time here; it feels like home; I came on a good day after yesterday football match. I ordered a salmon; it was cooked to perfection; I could really taste the Smokey/grilled taste on the top; which went well with the soft inside. I’m going to be honest the I was surprised about the sweet potatoes fries; as I thought I was gonna be given sweet potatoes mash and my god. I loveeee the fries; it was such a nice touch to meal. I can’t believe my eyes… today was 10/10 will definitely comeback!!!

One of the few places in London with exceptional service and standards for cleanliness! Visited over the weekend with my wife and ended up tipping 35% just because the tables were spotless, and the waitress cleaned ours again before seating us. She did it JUST IN CASE—even though it was already clean! There are very few places in all of London, and I would even say the UK, that maintain such a high standard of cleanliness. The service was also exceptional—the staff responded quickly to everything we asked for, and everyone was helpful and friendly. Keep up the good work and the great culture! The only minor feedback I have: the cutlery was placed on the menu, which is inherently a dirty surface since every client touches it. Please don’t put cutlery on anything other than clean plates—especially not the table or the menu.

I have only been here twice and each time has been great. My 2nd visit I tried the Chicken Caesar salad and added bacon (I don’t normally order salads but fancied it as the weather was hot). Oh my god! This was by far the best salad I’ve ever had! When it arrived I was blown away by the presentation and the portion size was BIG. The chicken tasted delicious, it was marinated very well and it was moist & tender (no dry chicken here!) I can honestly say I will be back again just to eat this dish as it was so so good and even my 9 year old daughter who doesn’t eat salad tried it and loved it. Compliments to the chef! I will be back soon! :0)
