The Vine Tree Inn in Stroud

A very pleasant evening spent at the Vine Tree .1st time visit for the 4 of us and we really enjoyed it.Had a little issue with one meal but all sorted by the staff who were super attentive and efficient. Very busy and a great buzzing atmosphere in the restaurant and the landlord is such a friendly fella .We will definitely return and try something else on the menu as the food that was passing us to other tables looked lovely .

Nestled in Randwick, The Vine Tree Inn is a wonderful, dog friendly pub! A warm welcome on arrival from bar staff offering a variety of beers, ciders, wine and soft drinks. We visited for a family birthday and the food did not disappoint! Freshly made and arrived promptly. Attentive service from the waiting team. Even went the extra mile with a special drinks request. Spoilt with a lovely view of the Stroud District from the beer garden. You couldn’t ask for much more from a pub - we’ll certainly be back. Well done Team Vine!

We (4 adults) were lost, tired and hungry after a three hour walk, when we came across the Vine Tree by chance. What a find! Our welcome was so warm, the beer was great ( something for all tastes) and the food delicious. On top of that the landlord took us back to our car. How kind was that? We’ll definitely be back. Thanks so much

We couldn’t recommend this place more! Amazing service, views and fantastic food. Stopped in Randwick as our fourth stop on the Cotswold Way and it blew us away. We had the vegan curry, burger, and brownies (the vegan one being especially impressive) - excellent visit and we will be back to try more of the menu should we ever be back in the area.

The Vine Tree has become one of my most favourite pubs to visit. The hospitality is 2nd to none and leaves you wanting to revisit. They are attentive friendly. It’s a very pleasant experience. The vine tree has extensive views which lends itself to being a perfect location from a scenic point of view. Whether you choose to indoors or outdoors, it’s a great spot to behold Recently we’ve enjoyed roast on a Sunday, which is one of the most tastiest I can find around the Cotswolds well done indeed. It’s also nice to find crumble on the menu, especially when a lot of places follow suit and all have an easy option doing something outside the box is refreshing. They are certainly on the ball with what people want and it’s great to see

Never felt so welcome in a pub. Service was amazing and the food was really great. We had a burger and fish and chips. The staff were attentive and just amazing. Will be back thank you

Great menu and the service was excellent. The restaurant has a nice feel and ambiance with a good view on the upper floor. The food was hot and tasty with ample portions. 5 stars

Stopped here for Sunday lunch. Living in Gloucestershire, we often like to try new places for lunch & The Vine Tree didn't disappoint. We both had the beef and finished with Banoffee Pancakes, both delicious, and the view from their garden really helped.

Visited with my wife and two infants. The lady behind the bar was lovely. Really helpful, offered a high chair and also spoke to the chef to see if he could arrange some soup for my wife (who had tonsillitis/struggling with solids). Outstanding food (credit to the chef who went out of his way to help) and brilliant/friendly service. She was great interacting with our kids too. Thanks to all. We’ll definitely return when passing through again!

We were recommended here by our Airbnb host. A lovely local pub, with amazing food. A small but perfectly formed menu, with a bit of a Hungarian twist. We had the Hungarian sausage and prawns to start then a venison steak and a beef goulash and it was delicious. Great selection of beers and ciders and wine was lovely. Thanks for making us feel welcome.

The food in this hidden gem has to be seen and tasted to be believed. Genuinely top class grub. Lovely service too very friendly staff and a chilled place to unwind. Decent selections of beers and ciders too so ticked all my boxes. Starters main and puddings were all top marks. Lovely place to visit

Great Sunday roasts, the pork in particular was exceptional. Have been coming here for a while and can’t say enough good things about the pub, the food and the staff. All really good!

Another absolutely brilliant meal at The Vine Tree. This gorgeous little pub (very traditional in style) punches way above its weight when it comes to food (and also for the perfection of its real ale, for those who are interested in this). The views are completely stunning, the welcome lovely, the food wonderful and (for its standard, compared with some other more well known “gastropubs” in this area) terrific value for money. Just come to The Vine Tree and enjoy!

Wonderful menu of locally sourced food, beautifully cooked and presented. Great selection of beers and wines in a rustic pub.

Excellent Sunday lunch today. The menu is very good and also the service. The pub has a great rustic charm very typical of the Cotswolds. Will visit again very soon.

Really tasty lunch, good variety on the menu. We had mussels and sweet potato curry, both excellent. Friendly service too. Enjoyed sitting outside in the garden.

We had dinner at The Vine Tree last night, and it was a wonderful experience all round. It’s an extremely welcoming pub, very traditional in character, and Layos the landlord is an expert chef. We sat outside, enjoying panoramic views over the Stroud valleys and commons - the pub is set very high up the hill and the views are spectacular. The food was perfect, and the table service delightful. Particularly, the Real Ale available (Tiley’s, from a nearby microbrewery) was in absolutely perfect condition: keeping beer well is something that Layos takes a great pride in, very deservedly, and is surprisingly unusual amongst Gloucestershire publicans. It’s a wonderful pub: do visit!

Pleasant staff great food great service Brilliant experience Will be back Recommended highly We found this place accidentally and are over the moon

Really lovely food and drink. Service was good and staff were lovely. Also dog friendly. Only marked down as a weird bug fell out of the flowers on the table and was a bit gross!! The outdoor area is lovely too.

Pub was only a minor detour from the Cotswold Way and was very welcoming, with very friendly staff, great views from the garden, ....and a choice of either the usual pub fayre or delicious cake (recommended)....or both :)

Excellent quality food and selection of beers and wines with helpful and friendly staff. Stunning views from the garden. It’s a gem

We have been for lunch twice now. Both times we have thoroughly enjoyed the food and beer. Lovely to sit outside on a sunny day. Staff are excellent. Lovely pub inside and out. Only criticism would be that the chips could be better!

We expect basic traditional English pub food but what we got was different and exceptional good quality. The Hungarian food and wine is superb. Order the red by the bottle as you’ll keep drinking glass after glass as you bath in the summer sun on...

We have been using the take away service during lockdown and the food was fantastic, fresh and delicious. We had the fresh Cornish haddock with little extras like the Tartare sauce is homemade which makes the meal special. We also had the fesh homemade burgers...

Came here regularly pre covid, always nice little stop off when walking the dog. Called in here recently on a walk and decided I just wanted something light to eat. Have to say that I was shocked to see that a sandwich cost £7.95…. And...

We ordered the vegan cassoulet which tasted like a tinned cassoulet that had then been boiled for 10 hours to remove any taste from it. Quite literally the most tasteless meal I can recall as an adult. Lovely pub terrible food. Laughably expensive.

We arrived at this lovely pub,bathed in sunshine so decided to sit outside. The view from the courtyard is stunning, rolling hills and beautiful lush green fields. The menu is very good, with a wide range of lunches, main meals and desserts. The cider and...

We visited The Vine Tree Inn following the Monday 12th April reopening of pub beer gardens. We were really impressed. First of all, prior to our visit, the process of booking a table was quick and easy - we received confirmation of our booking very...

Lunched here in December after walking the beautiful Haresfield Beacons. Lajos is a rare commodity being a great chefnand a great host. Sat in the Stroud Valleys this pub has ecclectic premium drinks, and a changing menu of classic food with a twist and seasonal...

Went here for dinner as was the local to the airbnb we were staying at and was recommended. Lovely village pub, good choice of beers and ciders. Had sirloin steaks which were cooked perfectly and everything that it came with was lovely too. Friendly staff...

Very friendly pub we discovered by chance while walking the Cotswold Way. Lunch was great and the view great as well.

We drove to this place and had a quick drink, placed our Sunday roast orders for 4pm and went off for a long walk as the area is stunning. When we returned the staff pretty much had a table and our order ready and waiting....

Very disappointed, we felt the steak was very over priced for what you got. Didn’t feel social distancing measures were being followed, tables very close together and, waiters/ waitresses wore no PPE. Won’t be going back in a hurry.

Drove from Tetbury for a roast dinner takeaway today and it was absolutely worth it! Customer service was fab, I ordered through facebook messenger and collection was easy and safe. As for the food...WOW! The beef and pork belly were cooked to perfection. The apple...

We've visited the vine tree three or four times now and every time the food has been excellent. The staff are polite and know the menu well. The bar is well maintained and has a small but good selection of beers, lagers and cider. It...

Nice pub friendly staff . When I asked for a rum the bar staff suggested jack Daniels?? Eventually gave me a bottle of rum to look at to make sure it was what I wanted 👍I had the beef - now here’s my dilemma .......

Really enjoyed an evening with friends and colleagues here. Been before too and always enjoy it. The night we went it was very quiet but that took nothing away from the atmosphere. Wish it was closer to home.

Very nice homely pub. We went for dinner as a family with dog and had a good meal. Nice menu and friendly staff

We have a 20 minute walk up steep hills but it’s so worth it. Proper village pub cosy in the winter with amazing views in daylight. We were there last Saturday and although they were very busy we were looked after well by the friendly staff.

Estuve de negocios en Stroud y mi cliente me recomendó The Vine Tree, elegí el Fish y mi compañero el Rump Steak. Pedimos debidamente y nuestras comidas fueron entregadas después de una espera de aproximadamente 45 minutos. El pescado era excelente y el bistec sabroso y tierno, pero tristemente eclipsado por las patatas extremadamente grasosas. ¡Mi compañero tomó un chip y lo apretó entre sus dedos y se podía ver el aceite goteando sobre el plato!Lo recomendaría . . . . . . ¡probablemente no, a menos que sufras de estreñimiento ya que los chips resultaron ser un excelente laxante! !

Absolutely fantastic trip to The Vine Tree as ver for the Friday special - fish and chips washed down with a pint. Choice of some really interesting larger and ales. Love this pub. My sons loved their burgers.

Acabamos de tener un delicioso asado del domingo en el Vine Tree en Randwick. Servicio amable donde atendieron mi exigente sabor de 8 años (nuggets de pollo, papas asadas y pudines de Yorkshire)Y sirvió la más deliciosa panceta de cerdo.Vendrá una y otra vez!

Visité aquí con mi compañero, estábamos visitando Stroud, las personas con las que nos estábamos hospedando recomendaron este lugar, pensamos que lo intentaríamos. Definitivamente no nos decepcionó. La comida era deliciosa, se notaba que todo era casero. La sopa del día que era brócoli Stilton y ajo era divina, y el humous picante era encantador. Para los platos principales tuvimos el gulash, que era muy sabrosa y la hamburguesa estaba cocinado a la perfección. Es un pub local encantador con excelentes vistas. Definitivamente lo recomiendo!

If your looking for an excellent Sunday roast dinner in a venue with a fantastic view in Gloucestershire, then the Vine Tree is the place. I strongly recommend the pork belly; it is the best and hard to find better anywhere.

Agradable bar restaurante en la cima de Randwick Hill. Tenía el Hereford Steak y era bueno. Mi esposa tenía la hamburguesa y dijo que era bueno.

Si la descripción anterior le atrae, no lo dude, vaya al Vine Tree. Hice una visita a pie y me quedé cuatro rápidas pintas y una comida húngara maravillosa: muy sabrosa. Una bienvenida muy amable y excelentes cervezas muy locales, todas en perfecto estado. Vistas maravillosas también, por dentro y por fuera. Aunque la expresión quizás se haya usado en exceso, creo que "gema oculta" encaja muy bien. Compruebe en Facebook la información más actualizada sobre los horarios de apertura.

After a cold couple of hours walking in the woods, we stopped off for a hot chocolate. The staff were welcoming friendly and helpful. We decided to stay for food and had a beautiful lunch. Good portions of superbly tasty food. Steak, pork belly and haddock and salmon, all three dishes were amazing. Dog friendly, yet smart and warm. Local beers and ciders and great food at a reasonable price. Can't lose. Highly recommend

Lajos is a superb cook and so accommodating - the kitchen never seems to be closed. The pub is a typical old village pub with several locals propping up the bar, the food is really excellent.

No fue visitado por un tiempo, tentado por un correo electrónico que promociona fish n chips y bebidas para 11 personas. 50. Se nos permitió elegir una mesa y nos sentamos cerca del fuego. Vino y buen stout sumergido mientras esperamos bastante tiempo. Sin embargo nuestro pescado y patatas fritas valió la pena la espera. Pescado suculento en masa crujiente, grandes patatas fritas. Curiosamente a mi esposa le sirvieron salsa tártara pero no a mí, por supuesto que compartimos. Muy bien. Deberíamos haber dejado entonces pero probamos los postres. Gran error. Los panqueques de banoffee eran horribles. Muy gruesa, ligeramente caliente con rodajas frías de plátano arrojadas encima y algo de crema fría y salsa de toffee alrededor. Sin consistencia en la presentación, uno tenía rodajas limpias de plátano, las otras rebanadas de longitud completa. El verdadero panqueque sabía horrible y ninguno de nosotros podía comerlo. El bateador era demasiado grueso. La camarera finalmente limpió nuestros platos y preguntó si nos gustó, ¡claramente no! Para su crédito, se disculpó, pero eso es todo, estos postres fueron 5. 95 cada uno y no hubo oferta para reembolsar uno o ambos de estos. Más bien arruinó lo que hasta entonces era una agradable velada. Siempre habíamos recomendado el árbol de la vid, pero no volveremos.

Llamado al pub después de un paseo por el camino de Cotswold con amigos y nuestro perro.

Visité el árbol de la vid con la familia. El clima era muy pobre debido al viento muy fuerte y frío en la colina. Fuimos a tomar un par de copas a la familia. cuando llegamos allí, caminamos por el lado y bajamos por el aliado hacia el jardín y entramos por la puerta trasera. Al llegar, notamos a un bebé en un cochecito afuera en el jardín dormido sin nadie alrededor y sin cámara. Luego fuimos al pub para recibir un olor a frasco y alfombras pegajosas. Tenemos una bebida para luego ir a sentarnos afuera. Donde pudimos ver al bebé en el cochecito al lado del aliado. Este bebé no solo se dejó fuera solo con nadie para controlarlo. Pero también era un viento muy ventoso y lo suficientemente frío como para sacudir los bancos y beber afuera. Estuvimos sentados allí durante un rato, aunque pasaba una hora y nadie salió para ver cómo estaba este bebé. Después de una hora y media, el bebé se despertó y, después de gritar, una señora salió de los pubs escaleras arriba para buscar al bebé y regresó como si nada hubiera sucedido. El propietario del pub dejó a este bebé afuera, mientras que nadie vino a revisarlo. El bebé debe haber tenido entre 9 y 10 meses de edad. . . Cualquiera podría haber caminado por el camino de los aliados y tomar ese bebé y no lo sabrían en absoluto. En este momento tomamos algunas bebidas más para ser recibidos por una joven muy grosera que no tenía ningún servicio al cliente y que no había tiempo para sus clientes. Ella no estaba detrás de la barra y te dejaron esperando hasta 20 minutos por una bebida a veces. Cuando la señora vino al bar, no se arrepintió ni nada y fue muy grosera. No, por favor o gracias a todos. . .

Visited the Vine Tree with friends and the dogs, the pub is clearly a village pub holding on to it roots, the decor is typical Cotswold but the furniture is very dated, however the food choices are varied, the staff are very friendly although during our visit not enough were on duty, this led to delays getting drinks. The bar has a good choice of beers. Our food was good although I was disappointed with choice of vegetables with the Goulash. Over all a good experience; worth a visit if you are in the area.

We have just had another excellent meal at the Vine Tree. So many interesting choices from Cornish haddock and chips to local pheasant goulash and wild mushroom risotto but I still can't get past the belly pork which is cooked to perfection. Our favourite Stroud Brewery beer and Stowford Press cider completed the meal but a good wine menu is available. Good wholesome food on a cold winter's night but equally a pleasant place to eat in the summer.

During our walk (Cotswold way) we descended from the ridge for a lunch. A freshly made, thick and spicy tomato soup and a delicious salad was what we needed to warm up. A real treat!

Love love love the food ,such great food always consistent great homemade roast , and really lovely menus in the week which offer something different every time .

The walk up the hill on legs of various ages built up the thirst.......food good beer superb in a venue I remember well, post Randwick FC training sessions in the early 1970s and last visited about 8 years ago when we held a primary school pupil reunion and just 38 days short of 44 years after I first met my wife at my 18th birthday party!!!

We had heard a bit about how good the Vine Tree was for food that we decided to visit on a Saturday evening. The staff were friendly and attentive. The food was very good & well cooked with the portion sizes big enough to fill but not bloat you out and feel uncomfortable.

Que tengan calidad en nuestro pequeño pueblo es un auténtico regalo. Regresamos para un sabroso menú, buena cerveza y un servicio amable. Cerrado los lunes, que es una vergüenza. . A veces se cocina un lunes: (es justo lo que necesitas.

Recently visited The Vine Tree Inn while visiting family in Roscombe Stroud area. We had a delicious meal, loved the soup. Beer was fantastic. Staff was friendly and attentive. I will definitely return on my next trip.

Esta fue nuestra segunda visita a el árbol de la vid, era la noche del bistec, así que tuvimos 2 filetes con patatas fritas y ensalada por 25 libras, también pedimos la carne de venado de las ofertas especiales que era de £18. 95. Cuando llegamos las comidas el venado venía en un plato con nada, cuando pregunté donde los lados eran me dijeron las patatas fritas y ensalada con la carne era para los tres platos. Me pareció que era inaceptable que el lado de raciones no eran suficientes para 3 personas y haber pagado £19 para el venado, esperaba más. Nos ofrecieron extra patatas fritas y un bol pequeño llegué un poco más tarde. Esto fue realmente decepcionante ya que la comida era buena, pero la actitud del personal y una mala relación calidad-precio significa que no volveremos.

Este pub es muy local y no han visitado por un rato, cuando llegamos estaba un poco oscura con luces o, pedimos la carne asada, había una variedad de otros 3 asados. La carne estaba muy tierna y sabrosa, verduras podría haber sido un poco más grande en tamaño de la porción!

Decided to try considering it was the second closest pub/restaurant to us and had beenmeaning to try it for a while.

This was our first visit to The Vine Tree, it is in a lovely setting and we were able to get a table by the window which was nice. We visited on a Wednesday evening and they had a deal on 2 steaks for £25, we had this along with a couple of other mains including the wild bore goulash. All meals were delicious and the service was good. We look forward to returning.

After a steep walk up the hill from our accommodation we were ready for diner. The pub is small and cosy with views across the valley. We were there having booked a table on "fish Friday" so for £10.95 you get fish and chips with a pint of beer. Note: other days they have different offers. The beer was "Tom Long" a local ale and very tasty. The meal came quite quickly and was not too large and very tasty. The service was friendly and responsive.

We've visited here a couple of times for Sunday lunch over the past month and have been seriously impressed! The set up is simple - there is a short menu to choose from (selection of meat roast dinners plus a fish and veggie option), written on a blackboard - but the results are fantastic! Delicious, local, fresh homemade food. We particularly enjoyed the pork (amazing crackling), boar (apparently butchered by the chef himself!) and whiting (breaded white fish). Yummy roast potatoes and veg to accompany meals plus good portion size. Puddings were also AMAZING - again, just a few choices and a changing menu, but all homemade and all delicious. Good selection of local drinks on bar, with pleasant service, although a bit more knowledge from bar staff might have been helpful. Would highly recommend if you are local or walking Cotswold Way. If neither of these, make a trip one Sunday. It will be worth it!

I'll keep it short: Prices are great. The Views are great. Food is excellent. Fish and chips are solid, but my tip is to order your fish breaded for an outstanding dish. The owner specializes in Hungarian goulash using various meats including venison, Wild Boar, and other common meats and it's quite nice. My boar goulash yesterday came with mashed, and a side of 3 veg: Red Cabbage, green beans, and steamed broccolli. Mmmmm, good. Prices are more than reasonable.

Gorgeous location overlooking the valley, we ate here after a walk in the woods. Very friendly service (albeit slightly disorganised) and the food was ok.

We had a very nice meal. The fresh fish was tasty and a generous portion, which you don't always get with fish. Lovely to have samphire on the menu too, and the wild garlic in the sauce with the fish.

Pleasant traditional Gloucester pub, and run by Hungarians.Excellent welcome,good value & a meal of Hungarian spicy sausages was a delight.Other two members in the party had the lamb roast which was a more than ample portion & tasted lovely.Empty plates all round !Will be back.

Disappointed by Sunday roast dinner. Meat was good, but potatoes clearly pre cooked and reheated - tough & rubbery on inside - likewise with veg, which was tiny portion.Interior decor could be so much improved - who thought artexing cotswold stone was a good look?In summary - not good price/quality relationship and surroundings need a lift.

We've lived in the area for many years but gave up going as we'd lost hope it would ever improve. The new management have made a big difference to the place. They are welcoming and charming and the food is very good.

Had not visited for a while, but very glad we did. Had a delicious meal which was worthy of a 4* restaurant, let alone a village pub. Was such a shame that there were very few customers, but we will definitely return and won't leave it so long next time.

A warm welcome, a good choice of real ales and some superb food..especially liked anything where they used the locally collected Wild Garlic. Have also enjoyed a superb Sunday Lunch there.

Our first visit for approx a year; the last time we went with family a few of them had a little moan that the menu didn't have alot of choices on, and we'd never really ventured back with lots of choices in town and nearby. The situation is still the same, but then it's not trying to be a Wetherspoons - far, far from it. I fancied a steak and heard that they were amazing. I thought the £25 price tag was alittle OTT for our quiet Saturday night out BUT, they do a steak night on a Wednesday - two steaks and a bottle of house wine for £35 - we will definitely give that a go soon.Now that these niggles are out the way. The pub is very welcoming, we reserved a table but for a Saturday evening it was nice and quiet and very relaxed. The bar lady served the drinks and took the orders whilst the chef was doing his thing - cooking up a Baked Red Seam Break from the special board for me, and the Belly Pork for my partner - WOW! Nicely presented, tasted amazing, no wait for food, yet no rush either. We both couldn't fault the food. The pub itself is very charming, dog friendly and small - booking recommended on weekends to avoid disappointment. In the summer the garden views are super-fantastic. We will be returning soon and won't leave it so long next time.

Live calling in here for a drink when walking the dog on a nice day. Had an evening meal here once which was lovely, will definitely be back for more food

8 of us had a very good traditional Sunday lunch with a good choice of roasts and lots of roast potatoes and vegetables. Good ale and wine, friendly service and, surprisingly, not crowded.

An obvious stop off point on The Cotswold Way, this is a heaven-sent pub with simple well-prepared food to send you happily on your way with a spring in your step (unless you chose the sticky toffee pudding, in which case your departure will be more stately). It's a lovely place and extremely well-run by a charming couple who made us very welcome, looked after the dog and poured (well, not literally) pints of life-imparting beer down our throats. The views over Stroud and across the valley are cinematic, and the whole place left us with a warm feeling. Stop here if you can, (but beware it's down the hill from The Cotswold Way - which means of course a steep climb to regain it). Excruciating - but well worth it for the glow...

We three "Grumpy Old Men" all had the honey glazed ham with chunky chips, tomato and egg followed by the apple and rhubarb crumble with custard for lunch. Good portions, very tasty ham and good tasting crispy chips. The crumble with custard was equally good. Overall an enjoyable meal and excellent value. The good humoured Hungarian landlord made us most welcome and we will no doubt be back before long. My only criticism is that there was only one starter on offer; Soup of the day, I would have loved some whitebait!Dave K. One of Grumpy Old Men

On a warm evening we sat outside as the view over Stroud is amazing. We ordered ham, eggs and chips, two big slices of good ham and brilliant thick (double cooked?) chips. It was a Friday which is their Special day for burger and chips and a pint for £9.95 so we ordered that too. The burger was thick tasty and homemade, good chips again although we only had six plus a tiny amount of coleslaw. A couple more chips and a bigger helping of coleslaw would have made it perfect. A long wait for the food but they were busy and we were happy admiring the view and chatting. Definitely worth going again.

This is a local restaurant we have now tried on two occasions. I resisted putting anything on here the first time as I had seen the good reviews and thought it may have been a one off. Unfortunately our second visit didn't meet our expectations either.We visited on a Friday evening, it was pretty cold in the pub so I didn't take my coat off and we both ordered soft drinks from the pump. They were more or less flat.We ordered olives and bread for starters - the olives didn't arrive so we had to chase up. The bread came with olive oil and balsamic vinegar - served in a pot so deep that you couldn't really even get to the vinegar. My husband wasn't impressed with the bread although I didn't find it to be too bad.For mains we both decided to go for the Hungarian stew - we assumed a signature dish due to the owners nationality and we wanted something hearty to warm us up! Unfortunately the dumplings were very powdery and the meat had so much fat in it, we both left a good amount. Not like us at all.Considering we shared the bread and olives, had soft drinks and stew for the main, our bill was just over £40. We didn't feel that this amount was really warranted and it is such a shame as it is in such a great location. The staff were very friendly too.We didn't complain on the night, nothing was terrible or inedible but it just wasn't up to our expectations.

Took some friends to the Vine Tree for dinner on Saturday night. Very welcoming staff, cosy atmosphere and lovely food..

The Vine Tree Inn is a great venue on the side of the hill in Randwick village with fantastic views. The bar and restaurant have traditional warm village atmosphere. In the summer there is a wonderful garden to sit in. We had a works Christmas dinner which was freshly cooked and as good as the Sunday lunches. Lajos is keen to please his customers and is very accommodating. He supplied a meeting held there with warm filled ciabatta and amazing chips followed by delicious home made chocolate cake and plenty of coffee and tea. Friday night is homemade burger and beer night. Tasty and very good value.

Excellent service and wines. Really great menu and food is delicious. Lajos was really friendly and informative about tasty Hungarian wines. Steaks are great and seared calves liver was divine.Views to die for. Recommended!

A very tasty Sunday lunch and good for the kids. Good to see some local food. Service was excellent although it was quite cold in the lounge bar.

Delightful and charming place to stop for lunch. Welcoming to walkers. Great food. Had the tomato, pesto and cheese on wonderful ciabatta! Friendly owner. Super place. Be sure to stop.

We did a circular walk around the area (Telegraph walks) and finished at the Vine Tree. My husband and I had lunch in the garden with our dog, we chose the burger in ciabatta - burger was homemade, the chips really crispy - it was absolutely delicious! Service was great - no complaints at all!

The meal we had rated along with very expensive restaurants we have eaten in including celeb chefs, well done to Laios who obviously takes pride in his knowledge of food and wine.

The Vine Tree is a lovely, friendly village pub where you can be guaranteed of a warm welcome. A great spot for a pint and a bite to eat after a long walk. The views from the garden at the rear are special and is a popular spot with locals and visitors alike.The food here is generally of a high standard with quality local ingredients not mass produced, ready to heat cheap eats that you get elsewhere, and Lajos's chips are to die for!If you intend dropping in as a large group especially if wanting to eat - play fair and ring ahead. This is a small village pub with a few staff, who do their utmost to do a good job so give them a sporting chance of doing so!

The biggest problem is finding the place but if you take the trouble it is well worth it. We were walking round the ins and outs of Randwick and came across the Vine Tree. We popped in for a drink but ended up having a couple of excellent steaks. The service was very good and the views were magnificent. Some good real ale available. Recommended.

I often take friends here for lunch and we always have a nice meal. Food is locally sourced, and cooked fresh, and the selection of beers and wines etc.is good.The pub is old worldly with wonderful views over the valley. I would really recommend it for a pleasant,relaxed meal.

Four of us went here today for a Father's Day lunch. There was one vegetarian option on the menu which my step-mum didn't fancy, and the lovely chef offered a delicious alternative of mushroom stroganoff. The rest of us had a pork belly roast and it was without doubt the most delicious cut of pork we have ever tasted. A beautiful intimate venue with stunning views, exceptional food and wonderful staff. This is going to be hard to beat!

Having seen it's brilliant review, we popped in for a birthday meal. The cask marque ale was excellent, as were the selection of soft drinks. The food was excellent, but I don't know whether a waitress had called in sick but there was one girl doing the bar and floor- two guys in the kitchen. It wasn't that busy, but she kept forgetting things and getting flustered which was just irritating, and a real shame. The food made up for poor service, thankfully, and we Had a nice time. Worth a visit.

Fantastic meal in a lovely welcoming pub. Highly recommend the beef goulash. Perfect place to visit after a walk in the woods. Will definitely be visiting again.

Myself and 3 friends had just completed a hard morning's walk on the Cotswold Way and were in need of urgent refreshment. Butty Bach from the Wye Valley Brewery was excellent and highly recommended. The landlord was very welcoming and served us some excellent home cooked food. We asked him for the recipe for his chips as they were some of the best we had ever had! Will definitely visit again.

Four of us had been walking and called in for lunch. We were welcomed by the landlord and had excellent meals - 3 thick ham and eggs and a brie and bacon chiabatta and 8 pints of ale. The chips were the best we have ever had, crisp and crunchy with a soft inside ( a cooks secret ). Lovely views across the valley. Excellent all round. This pub deserves more custom.Steve B

A group of about 20 of us descended on the Vine Inn for lunch after a walk in the area. Cosy and comfortable interior, would have had excellent views but for the fog outside!I had battered haddock and chips, with peas and tartare sauce, very nicely cooked and presented. The portion size was just right, as were all the other meals served. Good service from pleasant staff. I would recommend this pub to other visitors to the area.

We enjoyed a delicious steak dinner here on their Wednesday night steak night....a beautifully cooked rump steak with peppercorn sauce...crispy onions which were absolutely delicious and a welcome change to normal chunky onion rings,chips and a side salad made for a faultless dinner...a tasty Eton mess to finish and we were stuffed! Couldn't recommend the food here more and at £37 for two drinks,two steaks and a pudding to share was good value too. Thanks!

Nice and peaceful with great views. The menu is limited as another reviewer noted but at least that meant what they did was done well.Little atmosphere but we're here for lunch! Priced about right for the Cotswolds.Worth finding on a day out.

Enjoyed our recent visit, however the menu was very limited and not as stated on website. Could see nothing for vegetarians. No atmosphere, some background music might have helped. Won't hurry back.

Wanted to say thanks to the owner / chef for a lovely lunch stop after a long walk. Arrived at pub just before closing, however was made to feel very welcome (even with our muddy boots and dog) and no problem ordering lunch at this time. The Haloumi panini and small portion of chips was just what was needed. My friends all had different lunches. All enjoyed our choices. Will definately be going back.
