The Vine Restaurant in Scottish Borders

Great service and excellent food. We all loved the starters and main course.food was very tasty and well presented. Would recommend

We dined here as a large group and we all had good meals and there was a lot of food served. Seems to be a theme in Newcastleton, it was like eating in America! I had the haggis stuffed chicken which was tasty.

Staff are friendly but food is average/poor I paid £7.95 x2 for two garlic mushroom starters. They were just the cheap frozen mushrooms served with a side salad. My son asked for an omelette and it was burnt. I had chicken burger and that was lovely but o my overage. In my opinion the good is overpriced for the quality. I don’t mind paying if the quality is of a high standard.

We were staying nearby for a few nights and ate here twice it was that good! Lovely home made food . We had curry and pie both delicious. Puddings we’re even better, sticky toffee pudding and apple tart. Would return every week if we didn’t live 4 hours away !! For traditional pub food at reasonable prices it’s a must if your in the area.

We stopped for dinner with our dog. You can go in the bar area with dogs so no issue. Good portion size and staff attentive. Well done. Reasonable prices and good cocktails!

We came here the last time we visited this area. We were pleased last time and felt like old friends. The food was all freshly prepared and made to your satisfaction . I do not .like a big meal in the Evening, But it was not a problem that I only had a soup and sweet. . The young waitress who served us was very friendly and the Locals in the bar made us feel welcome, A very Pleasant experience and a good varied Menu.

We were staying in the area and arrived in Newcastleton late. We dropped in on spec just grateful to find something to eat in the local area. What a great surprise to stumble across. Nice friendly service, great steak and at a really good price. My daughter's chicken pieces were succulent homemade and tasty. Just a shame we did not have more time to enjoy the beverages.

As guests of the Grapes Hotel we have been tormented by the lovely smells escaping the kitchens. So we decided to give it try. Restaurant is very clean and fresh, appears to have recently been refurbished. Tables are well spaced out so you are not sat on each other. Great food god sized portions all very well presented. Prices are good, cheaper than the only real evening competition in the village. Food arrived quickly, though there was a bit of a delay in our main course plates being cleared. The staff are welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend.

Fabulous food recome d steak and ale pie or haggis wrapped in chicken.Staff work very hard and are so polite

Staying in Newcastleton for some mountain biking and wanted to watch Andy in the semi at Wimbledon. Staff couldn't have been more friendly, put us and the the three kids in the back function room with a TV to ourselves! Even served us food and drinks through there. The food was extremely good. I had the sausage and black pudding thing and it was absolutely delicious. My wife really enjoyed her steak pie too. Highly recommended!

Visited this hotel 1st in August 2014 and the food was very good and service was good, 2nd visit in Sep 2014 and it was really quite poor, service was terrible after waiting for 10 mins at the bar we asked for a table in the restaurant but were told we would have dine in the bar, we ordered our food then 10 mins later we were approached by the man who told us our choise was not available and we would have to choose something else, no apology! while there was a few table dinning we then waited a further 40 mins for our food, when it arrived it was certainly not as good as our previous meal, just very average. Maybe this was just a bad night but have not been back since.

We had a very good meal very well presented. We were greeted by a very friendly girl who remembered us from our Trip Last year. Good selection of dishes and all Home cooked.The locals were chatty and friendly. A very bright and clean restaurant.Would go again when in the area.

Good choice of mains at reasonable prices ranging from £9 - £18, starters are a little pricey at £7. They do a good early special of 2 steaks and a bottle of wine for £25 till 6:30pm.

The staff were friendly and very helpful. The god was excellent and very good value. Nothing to complain about.

Excellent meal , I had the duck and my husband had steak pie. All delicious and good service. the place was recommended by the hosts of our B and B Abbotshaw House farm. they were right it was the best meal out in a long time. Thanks guys!

We had a couple of lovely meals here in August 2013. The menu is extensive and the portions are very generous. They are welcoming to children and the staff were very friendly.

Following a recommendation by the Flatt's farm Farm B and B we ventured into the attractive square in the middle of Newcastleton for supper at the Vine restaurant in the Grapes hotel. Whilst the restaurant is not in a starred class , the fare provided was fulsome, colourful and tasty, served well by a hard working and smiling waitress. The menu was all one could wish for, with a full variety of meat , fish and vegetables on offer. The fact that it was busy on a Monday speaks well for its quality. I would not have called it a celebratory meal but a satisfying one, certainly.

We had a quick lunch here while out exploring. Very casual, but a nice varied menu and very reasonably priced. The food was fresh and well-prepared. Barely had enough will-power to leave without sampling any of the very temping treats in the display case, but will have to come back again someday!

Try the light bite menu......great value !!!!No matter what dish passed us...they all looked great !! Served with big smiles and happy staff.Will be back...not soon enough.!!

Food was delicious and staff were really helpful and efficient

Food absolutely amazing, presentation was 1st class, waitresses attentive,thoughtfull very very good value for money

Fresh ingredients lovingly put together with obvious care and attention. It really was exceedingly good! Do not miss this restaurant.

Presentation and produce of the highest class, if you had this class in a big city you would have a long wait for a table and pay through your nose, yet here it is in a small borders village, try it you won't be disappointed.

This was a return tripfor dinner to the Vine Restaurant in the Grapes Hotel at Newcastleton. The menu has such a great selection, something to suit everyone, including vegetarians. The portions are generous, many dishes usinglocal produce and Scottish produce. If you can manage a dessert, you are in for a treat, they are stunning to look at and very very tasty. Excellent service from the waiting staff and superb chefs. Enjoy!

Posh nosh at the tiny village, with a good chef, good service and excellent bar.
