The Vineyard in Tunbridge Wells

Great food and service from Adam we did an overnight stop for dinner in our Motorhome. Lovely decor and ambience. Nice to find a business sourcing local produce and we thought good value for money given the quality of the food and presentation. The only downside was the discretionary 12.5% service charge. We always reward great service with a tip and always object to this being added on especially 12.5%! That said Adam was charming and very gracious when we challenged 12.5%

Was just passing through and looking for somewhere to eat and spotted this nice looking place all lit up and it turned out to be a good move. Plenty of parking is always a good start. So now the main parts. Well appointed restaurant, good decor and clean. They was quite busy but found us a table. So the main bit. Three people, three different main courses with the end result being three happy people. The food was really very good. The service and friendliness also to match. I recommend The Vineyard and would not hesitate to eat there again. Thank you.

Food great. Service fantastic however whoever curates their music playlist needs a talking too it’s absolutely terrible

We met a couple of friends for lunch on a Saturday, luckily having booked a table, as it was very busy. Always good to see! We had a really nice meal, the service was pretty good, although one of our party had to wait just a few minutes for his main course. Not a problem. And the staff were all very friendly but not intrusive. One of our friends is a vegetarian, and she really enjoyed her meal. The others had the pork belly and the venison burger, all of which we really enjoyed too. The only downside to what was otherwise a really lovely lunch, was that we were surrounded by small children who, by definition, make quite a lot of noise! We would have enjoyed a “quiet” section a lot more as we had a lot of catching up to do. Having said that, we would definitely recommend this pub … well worth a visit.

Dinner tonight was very nice. We all had steak and chips with some tasty starters and desserts too! Our dog was very welcome and got lots of love and some water. Gabriel served us and he was brilliant, very helpful and responsive!

The service was very good. The house wine was excellent. My friend loved the burger but I thought the haddock was a bit thin and there were too many chips. Overall quite good.

Local pub with a nice atmosphere and great food. Our server, Flo, was really helpful and friendly, answering our questions about a potential Christmas booking. The food was great also, with plenty of options and really well cooked.

Excellent mains and service, our server, in particular was lovely, very helpful and accommodating, we were on table 33 on the patio, lovely spot. The Affogato's were a dissapointment, but we were at a country pub so perhaps should have been wary. Otherwise a lovely late afternoon spent.

The food was great and the atmosphere was lovely. Kata served us and was absolutely exceptional - I have a diary and egg allergy and she was so helpful in helping pick suitable options for food. Would definitely recommend to everyone. Thanks so much!

Had a lovely meal with 3 friends at the Vineyard, Lamberhurst. Thank you Adam for the service, which was excellent. Hope to return soon. Thank you.

Gabriel looked after us spectacular well, hugely enjoyable dinner would highly recommend. Had the fish cake starter Fillet steak plus trimmings Apple pie & ice cream

Great service - We didn’t have a booking but they found a space. Lovely food and service by Flo plus they all made special attention of my dog, top marks for that

Have visited on several occasions, always ordering a pizza which I had enjoyed. This time I ordered a smoked salmon bagel with fries for a change, this was a disappointment being bland and unappitising . The bagel was heavy and thick, not nice to eat. The fries were good! Overpriced. Other family members had pizza qhich was good. The duck salad had fat on the duck slices. Desserts good.

Lovely meal at The Vineyard as always, great atmosphere and special thanks to Lara, who was very helpful and friendly, with lots of good recommendations on food and drinks. Thanks for a great evening!

Lovely place!! Me and mine popped in for some lunch on our way down to Hastings for the evening and had a very peaceful meal with some great food. Our server Faye was incredibly helpful and bubbly making our service very sufficient. We will definitely be returning in the near future!

Stopped here on the off chance of getting some me lunch ,it was very busy but managed to find us a table To our delight the food wine and service was very good Both had the prawn linguine Will definitely return again although it is quite a travel.

Visited The vineyard for a family meal, the food was delicious and wine was lovely. The service was great, our server Adam looked after us well, very attentive and friendly

A great afternoon yesterday for birthday celebrations. Service was great, we turned up early but this was no problem, Ben was very welcoming, friendly and attentive. Food was delicious and the portion sizes were huge! Will definitely be returning again soon.

Fantastic meal at The Vineyard never fails to impress with the quality of the food and the overall value for money. The staff as usual were excellent. We were served by Adam who was very pleasant and attentive with nothing too much trouble. We'll certainly be going back again soon

We turned up without a booking on a Saturday for lunch and although busy we were pleased they had a table. We sat in the annexe around the back which is actually stylish and cosy on a very cold January day, because it's also the location of the open pizza kitchen. Inspired by the oven and the vibe I went for the calzone and my partner had the fish pie. Honestly it was one of the best calzone I have ever had. Pretty much faultless..my partner also raved similarly about her fish pie. We ordered a Chapel Down Bacchus to go with it - as you would in a Kent pub called the Vineyard! Was fantastic. Service was professional and slick, Ben is a cut above your usual Saturday pub server. Would highly, highly recommend and will definitely visit again if in the area. Full marks all at the Vineyard.

Always delivers! Excellent food and great service from Ben!! The vegan options for pizza and the burger really hit the spot.

Lovely place, warm and welcoming, the food was delicious, we both had the English burger and chips, the salad was very refreshing and everything cooked to perfection.

Joined a group of friends who suggested we meet at the Vineyard as they had heard great things, I’m so glad that they suggested this. The pub has a large garden area which I can only imagine is great in summer, perfect for families. We were sat in the rear of the pub with the pizza oven and it was great to watch. I went for a pizza along with majority of our group and we all agreed how excellent they all were -even more so to see them come straight out of the oven and over to our table within seconds. Gabriel served us on this particular day and again we all could not fault the service.

As a local resident this has been an absolute stalwart banker of a pub for good food, a fine variety of drinks and a relaxing atmosphere. I was, however, extremely disappointed with my experience tonight. The bar area was it's usually jovial and efficient self but our meal (all £80 per head) was very substandard. Apart from taking an age to arrive I'm afraid the quality of the food was very poor. Very overcooked on all levels. Scallops that were like rubber, vegetables that fell apart and steak nowhere near the preferred medium rare. (No red meat in sight). The wine was frankly awful. We tried 4 different bottles between our table of 12. I'm sad to say they were all terrible, even those at a significant premium. For a high-end pub chain this was both surprising and immensely disappointing. I genuinely never complain but I'm just so disappointed with my experience at The Vineyard tonight that I felt something should be said. With any luck things will change.

Once again, amazing food and first class customer service. A particular thanks to Inés who made our evening wonderful. Thank you 😊

went for lunch at the vineyard. really lovely food and atmosphere, Jo gave us great service and was very attentive.

We had a lovely family Boxing Day meal at the Vineyard today. Our food was served hot and was very tasty. We had great service: Ben was friendly and helped to make us feel welcomed and at home! We will be back soon ❤️

I came for a Boxing Day meal with family and was served by Ben. The service he gave was excellent, very attentive and accommodating. This all made for a great day with family.

Ben was amazing come in was very busy. Could see he was rushed off his feet so he could see i was waiting and asked Gabriel to serve us and also interacting with us to make us feel like they wanted us there.

Went to the vineyard with family. Amazing service by Megan today, food was beautifully cooked and presented. A wonderful country pub.

We very much liked the vegan options, please the service was very friendly and prompt. Nice atmosphere and tables not too crowded

Had a wonderful lunch with family. It was a very busy lunchtime. Gabriel who served us was excellent. Thank you Gabriel. Merry Christmas!

Celebrated my birthday in one of the pods today, we were upgraded, and were hosted by the lovely Ben, who went above and beyond to make sure I had a great day! I did! Thank you, and as Arnie says, I’ll be back!

Reliably good food and service. Great atmosphere. First choice for local dining. Ample parking and large garden with children’s play area.

A recommendation from a friend we came on our way home for dinner . VERY lovely experience! All staff, and Ben were fantastic! We will be back!

Ben was attentive, kind and understanding… he even gave us kids colouring books (we’re 30)! Food was brilliant, atmosphere equally as good.

Been my regular pub for many years. I love the atmosphere here and I love the food. Lovely and attentive staff. I was served by Megan and she was really on the ball and just lovely.

Adam was great very polite and helpful in his service. Victoria was very polite clearing our table after service. Overall very happy experience especially calling in at last minute for a table of 11, the staff where very accommodating to us

We had a great time ,great food great service, and Adam our waiter was a legend he really looked after us. We will definitely be back Well done all 👏👏

We booked for dinner and an overnight stay. Both our 2 rooms were immaculately clean but extremely cold. The heating had apparently not been turned out for some days and we we’re disappointed that nobody had seen fit to switch it on a few hours...

What a lovely place beer was bang tidy food was bagdelisias will deffo come back again steak Tuesdays are the one bring friend and all well be sorted 🤘👍😎👉👌😎😎😁😁

Everyone enjoyed their meal. The manager made us feel welcome and he sat us down with a smile on his face. Service was perfect - the waitress Faye made sure I had a full drink.

Lovely food, the steak was cooked perfectly and the brownie was amazing, Ben and Faye were excellent hosts, definitely will come again

Stopped in for a quick early supper. Ben was great explaining the menu, top service. Thank you Ben

Really lovely pub, serving great food and wine. The rooms were great too. Comfy beds, nice shower. Spiral staircase might be slightly disconcerting for some! Although I thought it added character!

Unfortunately the duck/pigeon breast was very chewy. Gave most of my meat to my friend . I did tell the waiter, he was going to let the chef know. That was that, no more was done. So very disappointed. Sorry.

Highly recommend food delicious friendly staff thank you Megan for looking after us. Loved the crème brûlée

Food was delicious as always at elite pubs. Ben was our server who was helpful and friendly throughout our time here. Would highly recommend.

Popped in for a last minute lunch on Saturday, they were extremely welcoming and found us a table straight away. We started with the flatbread to share and it was delicious. I had the duck and my partner had the linguine we couldn’t fault either....

We go to the vineyard regularly, always happy with the service and food, however on Sunday we came for dinner and my partner had found a piece of a blue wood pencil chipping in his roast!! We put it aside, and a woman came over...

Went on a Sunday. Great food and atmosphere. Our waitress was Faye who was kind, patient and attentive.

Always a pleasure to dine here. Everything I would expect from a country pub/restaurant. Excellent menu with good food served by friendly and helpful staff. Looking forward to our next visit.

Amazing, no faults. Very good service and lovely food. We had to ahemd our booking due to illness which was no issues. Kids had Pizza which they loved, I had the kebab which looks and tastes incredible and my wife had the pie which was...

Fantastic pub, with excellent food and ambiance. Also really appreciated the great service, thanks Victoria.

Cannot speak more highly about the service at The Vineyard. I called them on the off chance that the might have a reservation (in ten minutes time) for 6 adults and four children - they were so kind and happily accommodated us in one of...

A cozy pub atmosphere with some classic pub dishes. Ben and Adam were lovely servers for our meal. A good dinner. The burgers were very filling.

Went on a sunny Sunday during October and the restaurant was extremely busy, however to my surprise everything was on time, our food arrived no later than you would expect and the service was great. Big Thanks to the Vineyard Staff

Simply delicious wine and a beyond amazing pizza, loaded with the flavour of prawn, chilli, anchovy with fresh herbs and avocado.

Food was good but not fantastic. The kebab was not really as described with too many fries (not skin on as listed). Burger was very good. Sticky toffee was super but one could easily feed two people! 12.5% service charge is added but in our...

A superb menu selection and reasonably priced as well. I have an allergy to garlic and a 'near allergy' to onion too and they took care to amke sure that everything would be prepared safely so that I could eat it... What a pizza!!1q Delicious...

Victoria was a very lovely waitress and made sure we had everything that we needed. The food was lovely and great value

Victoria and Willis were excellent hosts at the restaurant. They gave very good service advice intelligently on the wine and had a good sense of humor. I can really advice to have dinner there because you will be in for a enjoyable and entertaining evening.

I Came here for a meal with friends who are moving back to Australia and it was amazing!! Ben and Faye were great and so welcoming they made our experience great. They Gave us great suggestions on wine and food and i highly suggest this...

Yet another wonderful meal at The Vineyard. There is always a warm welcome and the pizza is by far the best in the area. Eating inside allows you to escape from the sometimes loud family gatherings at the tables in the garden. Staff are friendly...

I don’t think I’ve ever been anywhere where the front of house were so rude. Hospitality is not the industry the man that dealt with us should be in. I have nothing positive to say whatsoever, the rudeness from the man who appeared to be...

What a shame gone downhill Service was slow Food expensive and not great at all Waited over hour for food Won’t be returning

Took my wife to meet up with a former colleague and his partner, but he and I worked in Michelin starred restaurants together. We were stunned, drinks orders taken promptly, server had the entire gin selection memorised for my wife who wasn't sure what they...

We love this pub - came last week for dinner and as always the food was superb - we were excellently looked after by Freddie. Will be back very soon.

10/10 service would definitely come again. faye was brilliant, so friendly and quick to answer any questions we had. food was amazing!

Firstly, the food was amazing and I found it was a great place to go with friends, I had an amazing meal and One waitress who worked there called Faye was outstanding when providing us with fast and friendly service, it is above and beyond...

We were a large group and we were really well looked after in the Private dining area in the garden. Ben looked after our kids orders really well - leaving us free to talk and have a nice time. Ben was really helpful at all...

This has got to be honestly one of the best meals I’ve ever had, my partner had the surf and turf, I had the goats cheese pizza, with sweet potato fries and my son had the margarita. Steak was cooked to perfection, will recommend to...

Probably our favourite pub. Excellent food no matter what you order. As the other reviews outlined, the pizza’s can’t be beaten. Staff have always been very friendly and accomodating. Outside space is great for long sunny lunches.

My daughter and I have just enjoyed a delicious pizza lunch at The Vineyard. We sat outside at a very pleasant table and were looked after superbly by Inés. Her care, manner and attitude were exemplary. Absolutely faultless. Thank you to Inés and the team...

Love this place! We turned up at 8:29pm just as the kitchen was closing, and Inés and the team took the trouble to make sure we were still fed two of the BEST pizzas we’ve ever had. Inés was super friendly too and made us...

Two of us had a delightful lunch at The Vineyard today on our first visit. The setting is pleasantly rustic. I had the best steak that I have ever been served in a restaurant - really delicious. My husband had the salmon and samphire risotto...

Came to the vineyard for my birthday and hadn’t booked. The team fit us in, kept us updated on our table and took our order quickly. Ineswas brilliant and I loved the birthday plate for my desert! Thank you for making my birthday special!

Lovely place. The pizza was delicious, although the service was very slow, pizza was barely warm, and the bottle of white wine was not cold. Only a sharp knife yo cut the pizza and felt very awkward eating with my hands. Staff avoid you once...

Had a lovely lunch at the Vinyard, food and service were excellent. We hadn't booked but because the pub was busy they put me and my wife in one of their cosy cabins. Service was excellent from Ben Crossan and Freddie. We will definitely go...

This is part of a chain but the food is lovely and well priced and the service is excellent. We were served by Adam the three times we have been and he is always helpful and charming. A good solid pub.

Excellent evening meal. Great service from Faye, nothing was too much trouble. Friendly, didn’t keep us waiting but not at all pushy. Will definitely go again. Food was amazing.

I went with my husband and parents in law who were visiting from Cornwall. I had to write a review because the food and service has been consistently brilliant very time we've been. The staff have always been friendly and super attentive. This time we...

Food was amazing. Faye’s service was wonderful - very attentive to all our needs. Will definitely be visiting again soon!

Consistently succulent, beautifully-prepared food; and well-presented too. The venue (The Vineyard, Lamberhurst), is pleasant. We didn’t have to wait long for our food, either. We chose to sit in the lower patio area, and I found out that you have to lay your own table,...

Unfortunately found menu restricted in that it was mainly meat, pizza with insufficient salads/ fish dishes. The meal we had was very basic. Very disappointed because the location is good, parking no problem at all. However I must commend the Waitress Faye who was delightful...

Beautiful scenery &atmosphere, thoroughly enjoyed our food and our friendly waitress Faye gave us a delightful service.

Excellent service all evening from Alex. Amazing food. Nice atmosphere and stunning location. Looking forwards to our next visit already.

Impromptu Sunday lunch. Superb setting. Food could not be faulted, perfect salad and fish cakes. I tried the vegan chocolate mousse and it was delicious, Megan, our waitress, was knowledgeable and friendly and very efficient. Would highly recommend

Great atmosphere we went on on one of the hottest days of the year where the staff didn't let it show in their service I felt really sorry for them !! The staff were great really friendly nothing was too much trouble
