Temple Street Wine Bar in Aylesbury Vale

Brilliant evening,until the end. Was told by the Staff told to "To Drink up and get the f*** out,we want to go home.( although we still had 20 minutes before we had to leave.When challenged we were told we were being aggressive.And the Police were being called (The two people of colour)Such a shame a Brilliant day ruined by a racist staff,wanting to finish early on New Year's Eve. DO NOT VISIT THIS PLACE

This place is changing to a Cocktail and beer Bar offering tapas. We have enjoyed fabulous meals here with a special board. Tonight we had a meal and the atmosphere has changed not for the better.

We booked a table for Christmas Eve. The surroundings are lovely. The service however was extremely poor. They clearly didn't want to be there and serve us. They were arrogant and very rude. Clearing food away whether we had finished or not. I will certainly NOT be recommending this bar as a place to go, purely because of the staffs attitude.

What a great little bar. Stumbled across this place tonight after leaving a far too busy pub. Warm, welcoming and friendly. We ordered a bottle of house red (a Rioja) which was delicious and only £18. Bargain. Will be back 👍

This was my first time here and I wish I discovered it sooner. The service was amazing and the food even better. We will definitely be back.

Excellent services from our waitress food very good

Excellent food . Don’t think you’d get better anywhere else. All freshly cooked . Small , dining area like dining in a small country hotel.

Lovely setting and excellent service. Burger was very good, butternut squash a bit disappointing. Would go again but order something else.

The Wine Bar is a gem in Aylesbury. Food delicious, service impeccable and decor special

It is always a pleasure to eat and/or drink here. Our first choice for Aylesbury.

Food was excellent and the service was great as usual. Would recommend and this is a lovely restaurant .

A wonderful venue, with excellent food and drink, regularly changing menu and a great welcome. Still haven't dared to try the cocktail tree yet...

Lovely place for dinner and/or cocktails. The staff were really friendly and knowledgeable and the food was superb. No big long menu of frozen food here, just a short, fresh and utterly delicious selection. We are not local and came to Aylesbury for the Theatre, but if we were we would certainly make The Temple Wine bar a regular visit Quirky but excellent, we’d recommend it to anyone.

Great food, friendly staff - would highly recommend

The Temple street wine bar was pleasant, It was down a quiet street. They offer cocktails and these are cheaper before 7 pm.We ate there and I found the food to be nice and tasty .The menu is not extensive but that’s easier in a way .The ambience was good and service was fine.I would recommend it if you go to Aylesbury.We went there as we spent the day at the amazing Waddeston Manor nearby. Former Rothschild weekend home.

Wholeheartedly recommend. Nothing was too much trouble. Shared starters served but no rush to order main. Ordered tapas to share. Food was amazing - try the sweet and sour cauliflower.

Fabulous afternoon tea at temple wine bar - great service and yummy food

Love love love Temple street wine bar have been a few times and as always food is amazing quality and flavoursome. A cocktail is a must!!! will be back soon

Thank you all at Temple Bar but especially Nyssa for her attention to detail and great smile 😀👍 See you all soon and we highly recommend that you visit to experience this wonderful place 😀👍 Best wishes, Kim & Derek

Thank you to all at Temple Bar but especially Nyssa for her attention to detail and great smile :) We look forward too seeing all again soon and both Kim and I highly recommend that you visit to experience this wonderful place..

7 years of living in Aylesbury and first time we have visited and wondering why. A little gem tucked away with a small but excellent menu, food fresh and high quality. Extensive cocktail menu alongside a compact and well priced wine menu. Throughly enjoyable meal and we will head back for sure.

The food was excellent- the steak and triple cooked chips were to die for !!

We always enjoy going to the wine bar. Great food and lovely staff.

This was our first visit here after being recommended by a local 🤔 Well we booked with ease and arrived a few minutes early but we were greeted by Lauren who was simply wonderful from the beginning to the end of our evening 😀👍 We even had something in common as we had stayed in her previous place of work, The Ship, Brancaster 😀😲 Anyhow our order came and was so appetising and cooked to perfection 😀👍 All in all a great place to eat and drink made all the better by Lauren 👍😀👏 We highly recommend you visit soon and enjoy the same experience we encountered 👏😀👍👏

£njoyable occasion. Good food. Good service. Good price.

What a gem of a place! Gorgeous food, friendly helpful service, will definitely be back!

Really like this restaurant, good service not rushed, excellent food

A great evening out, lovely ambiance and great staff. The food was a little slow coming out from the kitchen but once it arrived it was very good. Delicious cocktails, and good wine. We will be back.

Really nice little hideaway. Food was good and drinks were reasonable. Price was good too. Will be retuning

Lauren served us and was very efficient and knowledgeable with regards to the food, drinks/cocktails and generally what was available when we enquired about future events. We had the snack board which was really good and more than enough. The Expresso Martini was wonderful. We are looking forward to trying the afternoon high tea which sounds lovely.

The Temple Street Wine Bar is one of Aylesbury's hidden jewels set in an historic building. It is always a pleasure to eat here, or simply go for a few cocktails. The bar staff really know their cocktails and can also be very creative. Happy Hours make the prices for cocktails really reasonable too. There is draught beer available and a very good wine and champagne list. The setting is a wonderful wood panelled room in 'Old' Aylesbury town and the ambiance is always delightful. The menu is not extensive but does cater for all tastes. The chef is always willing to adapt as well. There are a range of sharing platters and tapas style starters as well as a full three course menu which changes regularly. The portions are generous. We were sad that we could not indulge in desserts on our last visit - too full!! In fact I would say that this is our Number One choice for eating out in Aylesbury whether that be lunchtime, evening or an early evening pre-cinema/theatre supper. Highly recommended.

Great atmosphere, super service, fantastic food. All in all highly recommended.

Lovely impromptu lunch. Food was stunning definitely recommend the duck risotto!

Absolutely first class . The food was just delicious and the staff very attentive. I will certainly be visiting again

Great location and atmosphere. The food is fabulous and the staff extremely helpful and friendly

Fantastic staff, great atmosphere and the food was top class. You’re now our ‘go to’ restaurant for Sunday lunch!

Nice food and atmosphere. Very friendly and efficient staff.

sunday roast excellent as always tastly roast beef crunchy yorkshire pudding vegetables al dente

The service, ambience and food here is always first class. I would recommend this restaurant in a heartbeat.

Had a great meal last night. Parsnip soup, exotic fish and chips, peach cheese. Great food and nice atmosphere.

Fabulous dinner, best roast in the area! Would highly recommend

So happy to be back in our favourite place to eat! Food was amazing and the staff are just so welcoming it’s the perfect place for a date night!

We had a wonderful meal for my mums birthday, food was absolutely delicious and service, amazing! Even though there is no children's menu, they were able to make a child sized portion of fish and chips which was gorgeous! Thank you for our lovely meal!

Fantastic food and friendly bubbly staff. Haven't been in here for a while but will be back soon. Best place in town 😆

We always go to the wine bar it’s a lovely place to go and eat . The food is fantastic, staff are great we have never had a bad night there . Would highly recommend

Lovely overall ambience - food was lovely, service impeccable

Excellent meal all round. Delightful place to have a drink or food. So calming with the ambience of a country Manor. Just go you will not be disappointed.

We enjoyed the Valentine specials, beetroot cured salmon and rump of lamb . Thr gravy so nice that one of us asked for some bread to mop it up . The service was friendly, relaxed and efficient

Delicious Sunday roast, with plenty of vegetables to select from

Fantastic food, friendly service. Can’t wait to go back!

Service was a bit disjointed… drinks took a while and we got one dish of food and then 3 of us had to wait about 5 mins before the rest came out.. but food was good ..

Went for Sunday lunch, was delicious! This place is one of my favourite's to be be! Great food, great drinks and great service, love it!

Had lunch with very good friend today in Wine Bar & highly recommend this restaurant. Very good service,delicious food & lovely atmosphere. Shall book to go again ASAP. Thank you so much x x

I have lived here for a number of years and finally visited with friends for a Christmas meal. We were very pleased with the quality and quantity of the food for the price. I have paid double for much worse in pubs around Aylesbury Vale and even in London restaurants. The passionfruit cheesecake and mango sorbet is delicious. A nice range of wines. I would suggest perhaps a couple more fosh options on the a la carte menu, perhaps sea bass/sole etc. Just one suggestions which is the lighting. Where we were sitting we couldn't see our menus. Perhaps portable battery-operated LED lamps could be used on the tables? I can see why candles would be a fire risk in such an old building. Good friendly service and a nice atmosphere.

Visited with friends and family and they catered so well for a large group. Lovely atmosphere and delicious food. Don’t hesitate to visit!

Sunday lunch was super as usual; Lauren, affable, likeable and informative offering great service and attentiveness. Great cheese board for dessert; best cheese selection I've had in a restaurant. If you haven't been...........you're missing a treat.

I went here with a group of about 10 work friends for someone's leaving do and was not disappointed. It was very quiet in the bar, no one there other than our group which was nice and all of the staff were very attentive and good humoured throughout the evening which added to the atmosphere. Would definitely recommend.

Had a very good night out with friends and we decided to go to the wine bar for a cocktail or two. We got to the bar and are immediately told by staff they had had a large party in and were stressed. We were next told in no uncertain terms that we could only drink what was on the menu if they could make it. What sort of bar is this? Surly staff limited menu that had nothing classic on it. No wonder the craft yard and other bars are busy while this one is empty. You have one chance to Impress in retail. The Temple Wine Bar have yet to learn this.

Unbelievable value, 3 superb courses, bubbly, 2 whites, 2 reds finished with a desert wine. Please do more of these

Went for dinner with my mum as part of her Christmas present. We both absolutely loved it. Food was fantastic and service was great. Sadly didn't manage to get the gentlemans name but he managed to help my mum pick out a cocktail that she actually enjoyed! Thank you! Highly recommended and will be going back!

My wife and I whet to this wine bar on Saturday night for a treat night out. We choose this restaurant based on the good reviews on trip advisor. The staff were friendly and brillant they looked after us really well. The food was superb. The atmoshere was great. My wife and I had a fantastic night out. It was great to get away from the chain restaurants where I have found the quality of the food is so hit and miss. I will return to this restaurant and would highly recommend eating here.A real treat in Aylesbury Old Town.

My wife and I have only recently started visiting the Temple Street Wine Bar over the last couple of months. Three visits so far and all have been extremely enjoyable. There are now so many chain/theme restaurants taking over the world that it's lovely to find an independently run place that really cares. All the staff attending to us over all our visits have been super and the food is absolutely delicious. The ambience is just right, it's not too loud or raucous so that you can't hold a conversation, yet has enough hub-bub so that it feels just right. This is our new favourite place in Aylesbury.

Thoroughly enjoyed our date night at the temple street wine bar. Relaxed atmosphere, lovely service, great quality food perfectly cooked, great wine and drinks, good value for money 2 courses for £14.95. Will definitely be back as there are few places in Aylesbury like this. Highly recommended.

To be honest there aren't many good restaurants in or around Aylesbury. I do not like chains so it was a pleasant surprise to go to the Temple Street wine bar and have a pretty good meal. There were a few of us and we had two kids with us but they catered very well. The burgerI had was great, one of the best and so beefy. My wife opted for beetroot risotto and loved it.

Have been here a couple of times on a Saturday recently, used to a favourite of ours but simply been eating in a few different places recently Both time we had simply great food - starters, mains were particularly good, couldn't fault the food.

Really friendly staff and efficient service food was amazing the special linguine really well cooked! The wife loved the cocktails and her main course chicken supreme 👍🏼 will definitely return again just wish I had found it earlier 😁

We booked here very last minute, and really glad we did. Hidden away in the old part of Aylesbury, this is a real gem! It is a restaurant and wine bar with a cocktail lounge separate to the restaurant. Plenty of space between tables so dining is very relaxed. Not an extensive menu but enough choice to suit most. The food is delicious and really well presented. We can’t wait to go back, and intend to take friends. Wish we’d discovered this great place a long time ago!

Excellent venue. Food was delicious and well presented. Very well set out restaurant and friendly service. We will definitely be going back

Had a very good meal. House champagne very Palatable indeed! Will be returning!

Fabulous way to spend Mother's Day, lovely food, great atmosphere and the staff are fabulous.

Great staff, nice venue, great food. Thoroughly enjoyed our dinner there. Thanks

Located in an old building in the centre of Aylesbury very nice atmosphere ,service was good.Variety of dishes on the menu and a good selection of d drinks.Well worth a visit.

Good restaurant, good food, great ambiance and not too expensive. The menu is a bit uninspiring, and could do with updating, and when we arrived the restaurant was doubling as a bar, with a few people standing about, which was a bit off putting, but they didn't stay long. All in all, a really good restaurant, although maybe not quite currently meeting its potential.

Enjoyable experience, pleasant bar, good food - background music in the bar a bit loud

I would recommend for people who are making a group party. On a Friday night, at least, it is not appropriate for two people looking for the opportunity to eat good food and have a chat.

Lovely restaurant oozing charm and ambiance and serving delicious gourmet style food, you’d be mad not to visit this place! We visited this restaurant on a Wednesday evening for a birthday treat with friends and had a wonderful time. I chose the chicken roulade which was absolutely delicious and my friends chose the smoked haddock and also temple street burgers. I would like to give a special mention to our waiter who was very friendly and attentive despite being very busy and made our meal even more special. Thank you chef and waiter, we will definitely be back!

Excellent food, outstanding service and lovely surroundings. The chicken roulade was delicious and I’m looking forward to visiting you again. An absolute gem in the old part of Aylesbury!

Lunch for three from a la carte menu. Blue cheese salad to start - excellent. Smoked haddock to follow - excellent. Guinness on tap. Good selection of well priced wines. Not busy. Laurie, the bar guy was fantastic. There is nothing not to like. Highly recommended.

What a lovely place for a Sunday afternoon, very nice food and drink. It is tranquil and comfortable, the staff are adorable and it has a cocktail bar!!!!!

Came for a business lunch and was pleased with the food and the service. Just be warned it closed at 2.30pm everybody out.

Early evening dining for pre theatre. Very good value for money and a great atmosphere. Staff are very friendly and attentive. Slightly limiting menu but food good. Real good value for 2 courses for £11.95 per person.

Very friendly staff, food was lovely and we were very well looked after!

We came to the wine bar a few weeks ago for some drinks and were amazed by the cocktails. Kieran and Billy really know what they are doing and made us some fantastic drinks. Would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Just love this restaurant! Relaxed atmosphere, great staff, menu has changed and it was fabulous food. Will return time and time again.

Quiet evening when we went; good food & service. Steak OK, but presentation rather plain: steak, chips, half a tomato & rocket garnish. Location wrong on trip advisor.

Excellent service and food. It was a Monday evening but it was quite busy with people eating and some just drinking at the bar. Lovely atmosphere.

Great food and service. Loved it

Ate here today for our work Christmas lunch. The food was fabulous! The goats cheese mousse is sublime! Great value for money, wonderful service and a fabulous lunch. Would highly recommend.

Booked at last minute for lunch - on recommendation. I was not disappointed. A nice old building - with a large high ceiling interior that is more trendy Soho than Aylesbury. Friendly welcoming staff - I liked everything on the menu but we settled for the Mushroom Risotto and the Burger. Service was quick - the food well presented and was really tasty. The portions were small so would recommend starters - we were there for a quick lunch but I was impressed. It had a great ambiance- they were all out of Eton Mess so we settled for coffees rather than dessert. I will definitely return.

Went as a group, food portions were small and to be honest although presented really well, the taste was just not there. Could have just gone to the local pub! Overly priced for what you get. not really satisfied with menu. Friendly staff and the place looks nice enough, however you do not get value for money.

First visit to this restaurant under it's current ownership (used to visit quite often several years ago). It was Monday night so, as expected, relatively quiet but that did not detract from the experience. All four of us had different meals and everybody was pleased with what they had. We had some nice wines as well. My only comment would be that the mains menu choice was not large, but having said that we all found something to enjoy. Would visit again.

My wife and I visit the Temple Street Wine Bar, we are always pleased with the standard of the food, and the friendly and professional staff. The menus are original with a good choice of courses. The atmosphere is very cosy and friendly.

Disappointing experience. Ordered steak with peppercorn sauce but received the Stilton sauce and by the time I realised I had poured it in on my steak. Didn’t say anything because my partner would have had to wait whilst they cooked another steak! So just put up with it. Also No steak knife! Also noticed another table being shown a blackboard with the specials on - we weren’t told about any specials. Very average. Will not be recommending or returning.

visited with a group of friends last night & had another lovely meal - well cooked & presented food & great service - even as a large group all food was brought out at the same time & hot - we love this restaurant!

Lovely food as always - reliable, friendly, a great to relax !

Four of us went for a 3 course lunch last Saturday as part of a Travelzoo deal. The restaurant is tucked away in old Aylesbury and near to the museum and church. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. All courses were delicious. The service was excellent throughout and there was plenty of space around our table. Excellent value. We shall definitely visit again! Thank you

Service was not very professional. Menu and red wine choice was limited. Service quality and menu choice has deteriorated since our last visit.

Food looked good, but that's about it. The steak wasn't cooked, risotto wasn't a risotto, just rice sticking together, fish didnt taste good. Very good service though.

Visited last Wednesday , had a deal. in short lovely starters and superb mains - loved the setting and the service was excellent - will come again

We all had the fish and chips Friday special, and were not disappointed. The fish was huge and batter light and crispy! Perfect for a friday night. The staff were friendly and efficient, and we all had a fabulous time. The happy hour cocktails were also brilliant!
