Three Choirs Vineyards in Forest of Dean

My partner and I had dinner here over the May bank holiday, it was our first time visiting. The restaurant itself is lovely, light and airy with beautiful views over the adjacent vineyard. Very attentive and friendly service from Marta. We shared a few plates between us, everything was tasty, and there was a reasonable vegetarian selection. I thought overall the menu was quite pricey, and portions on the small side (even for tapas/light bites).

Stayed in one of the beautiful lodges amongst the vines. It was wonderful to wake up on a crisp and sunny morning in such lovely accommodation. The summers here must be amazing. We ate in the restaurant on a Saturday evening and is very tastefully decorated, service is friendly and attentive. The food is superb, very imaginative tapas style dishes, my particular favourites were the orzo with roasted salmon and the figs with Stilton. We walked through the vines to breakfast which was lovely. The breakfast was fantastic, one of the best we’ve ever had. Smoked salmon was amazing, never tasted salmon like it. All in all, a beautiful place in a fantastic location, friendly staff, great food and excellent wines. Can’t wait to go back

Very disappointed had a ham tomato toasty piled with sliced ham bit of tomato under cooked , staff were too busy with coach party in, £29 for meal with chips and drink for two not worth that much as we left most of the meal.

lady at desk very snooty looked down on us ! felt unwelcomed what we’re we doing there ? then said table booked oh !! dreadful customer service won’t be going again but food was nice but only tiny portions as it’s all tapas no plates of food just nibbles not advertised well

Our first visit and what a lovely idea to have menu solely compromising of tapas style sharing dishes. Very friendly welcome and a great table location in the very spacious restaurant. The menu choices are quite extensive - try the charcuterie platter with the breads - all very good and then we had a couple of dishes from the sharing menu with the posh fries! Very attentive service without being overbearing or rushed. The wine list, of course, has all of their own wines but also some guest ones too, all sensibly priced.

A lovely ambience in this vineyard restaurant. The tapas style dishes were very generous in size, there was a wide range, they were beautifully presented and very tasty. A lovely idea for sharing.

Lovely date night at Three Choirs, excellent food nicely complimented by friendly and efficient service. Generous food portions. Comfortable surrounds and tasteful festive decorations.

This was a meal to celebrate two birthdays and what a celebration we had! This was fine dining tapas style which was informal but in very exquisite surroundings. The view of the vineyards was beautiful. The tapas menu was far reaching and exceeded our expectations regarding quality, quantity and taste. We all enjoyed ourselves very much indeed and loved this new tapas idea. The wine was superb and being allowed to try the wines first was a bonus. An excellent venue with very happy customers.

Very good and broad range of tapas. Very well cooked and nicely presented. We had this with the wine tasting which is served at the table. A brief description of each wine is given ( thankfully not too much ) and then you are left to enjoy your tapas and wine at your leisure. A pleasant dinning room and nice service. Good value and good quality.

We booked to stay at the 3 Choirs Vinyard for 2 nights and as it was a Tapas menu and I like ‘proper’food we only booked for one night. HOW WRONG WAS I. The food is amazing and plentiful ,well cooked and served by attentive staff. And as expected great wine. So lucky booked the next night. Definitely a must.

Stayed here for my birthday present, lovely rooms lovely staff and excellent meals. It was nice to walk round the vineyard although there were no grapes at this time of year. The tour around the wine making facility was informative but the wine tasting wasn’t the best.All in all lovely stay.

Went with several other couples to celebrate a birthday as soon as we could book tables (and rooms in the hotel) after the end of lockdown rules. Restaurant has changed to a tapas menu post lockdown, and none the worse for that, great variety, beautifully prepared and presented, lovingly served. We had early evening slots for service which allows more time to savour the food, (and wine of course) perhaps a good idea to order slowly and not get all dishes at once so that you can create a good atmosphere. Sharing platters offer fantastic choice and value. We were well looked after by the excellent service team.

Tapas meal had a varied selection, portions were generous and well presented. Food was delicious and the service was excellent, would highly recommend

We visited the Restaurant whilst staying locally for a few days. The tapas was excellent with a great variety of dishes to choose from. The restaurant staff were great and Sophie looked after us very well. The Willowbrook 2018 white wine was a great choice, so much so that we bought a bottle to take away with us. Would love to return here again one day.

Excellent food. Well cooked varied tapas. Good service. Booked both nights during our stay at this lovely vineyard. Service was friendly and efficient. Good distancing so space away from other diners. Highly recommended.

Fantastic meal! Superb tapas in lovely surroundings with bright and cheery staff. Had a great meal, all very fresh and home made, authentic plus the wines from their own vineyard. Great value too. Totally recommend

Variable but mainly indifferent food. Figs were overripe. Has been better on previous visits. Great location let down by inconsistency. Avoid early dinner slots if you want atmosphere

In the evenings, tapas menu is the only one available at the moment. Well, we like tapas. So, 6 dishes, 3 fish based, 2 meat and one veg. All excellent. You can order additional sides, but we were happy with what we had. The dishes...

Fabulous weekend. Stayed on Friday night, wine tour, tasting then dinner. The wines are lovely especially the cuvee. Really great staff and lovely meal of Tapas. The rooms are spacious and comfortable with a view over the vineyards.

The Tapas approach to the lunch menu made sure there was plenty to choose from and quantities could be varied according to appetite. Service was very attentive and quite satisfactory although not fast due to COVID staff restrictions. Quality of ingredients and presentation very good....

Just got back from a lovely overnight stay in a Vineyard View Room...The wine tour was relaxed and we were left to do the tasting at our leisure which was nice. All the staff were so helpful and friendly...They even left a Birthday Card in...

We were given overnight stay at the vineyard with dinner and breakfast as a Christmas gift, Covid got in the way, so we only just used it. Was very concerned when reading just before we arrived that the dinner menu was now tapas. The restaurant...

Was taken to this overpriced junkyard a couple of weeks ago. Service - Poor Food - Poor Vinegar (sorry "Wine") - warm and rancid. on the plus side, they shouldn't have any trouble with social distancing rules, because the place was Dead! If you're not...

Really good food, both had the ribeye steaks which were cooked brilliantly. Service was really attentive and obviously the wine was top class. The only negative was that I couldn’t get an espresso but a very very minor point.

A group of 15 dined at the Three Choirs on a Saturday lunch time. The service was slow even though the restaurant did not seem busy. The menu is quite exciting; however, the actual food was frugal and uninspiring. My final memory was the bill...

It's so easy for us to get too but every time we go we are disappointed, could be absolutely fabulous but, what can only be described as reasonable food but over-priced, particularly disappointing is the lack of attention to stuff that is easily fixed! eg...

Terrible, keep away from here if you want a Christmas meal. This is our regular venue for Christmas Dinner every year. However when we arrived there were only three tables occupied, perhaps others new something we did'nt. We ordered three Christmas dinners and one fish...

Have used Three Choirs on several occasions and each time the experience has been good. The food has never been a disappointment and the staff are usually welcoming and efficient. We try to get a table looking out over the vineyard where the view is...

We visited the vineyard as we had been given tour and tasting vouchers as a gift. We decided to make the trip into a mini break and stayed overnight and were very pleased that we did. the accomodation is first class and dinner in the brasserie excellent.

We had lovely tour of vineyard and decided to stay there for lunch.... what a mistake... we wanted to stay as it looked really nice and we were treating ourselves to something special.... we were sat away from everyone so basically out of sight of anyone serving...it was exactly like the saying: “out of sight out of mind”.... no one cared if we still had water, no one asked how were we getting on with food, definitely no interest if everything was ok with food.... I had to stand up from table to go and give them empty bottle to get more water. They brought us empty ketchup and my husband had to again stand up and go to staff just to come back with another empty bottle :/. We spend just under 100 pound on lunch for two which let us feel Like we wasted our money and time. We had chateaubriand for two as main which was ok,but nothing special,presentation pretty poor....starter was ok but again for a cold sharing platter I think they forgot about us as it took ages. We opted out of dessert as we were worried how long it will take to even order as no one cared and by that point we just wanted to leave as we had enough. Would I eat there again? Probably not, unless other parties involved insisted....

The meal we had here was exceptional and reasonably priced considering the quality. Sharing starter of box Brie with Rosemary and honey was fabulous. My wife tells me her steak was lovely and my cod with mussels was also excellent. I was sceptical about English wine but in fairness the wine we tasted and shared a bottle of in the Restaurant was actually pretty good.We bought 6 more bottles! Service was good and the waitress was polite and efficient. Two course meal with wine and a side dish came in at around £75 which was quite fair. We have paid a lot more for food of this quality.

Had ordered champagne in advance and it was waiting for us on arrival. Smallish menu but several choices including some suitable for gluten free. Nice atmosphere and excellent service. Hope to visit again in the near future.

We were also given a voucher as a present for one night's dinner bed and breakfast, a tour of the winery and a wine tasting session. Because of distance we decided to stay for two nights.

We had dinner in the brassiere and found the food to be over priced and generally average. Waist of time and money. Will not be back!

Went on tour (£12.50 per head) which was enjoyable with ample tasting. Ate in the brasserie which had a limited menu, found the starter sharing dishes silly prices for what was delivered. Also for some of the mains the sides were all extra, and to be honest £4 for a small dish of potatoes is well over the top.It's now a bistro with a limited menu charging restaurant prices.Wouldn't go back to eat there.

Our offspring bought us a wine tasting treat when we stayed for one night, tasted 7 wines and had dinner. All made for a first rate experience. The restaurant has a good atmosphere with good, we’ll cooked food (good choices too), served by pleasant and attentive staff. We don’t live far away but may go back one day nonetheless.Rooms here are spacious, well appointed and overlook the vineyard.

We went to Three Choirs vineyard for their tour followed by lunch. The tour was very informative and interesting with a sample of 4 different wines (not just a thimble full either)! The lunch was excellent with real quality food and a chance to try more wine. A thoroughly enjoyable way to spend a few hours.

We had not been to Three Choirs for some time, we had always treated it as 'birthdays and anniversaries' only as it was not cheap, but worth it.Thankfully last night was not a special occasion as it was very disappointing. It would seem that the management has changed as it is now 'Vineyard Brasserie' and we did not recognise any of the staff.L had duck for a starter, followed by sea bass; both were unremarkable.I had smoked haddock gratin, which was mostly mashed potato, but pleasant enough. The pork loin main course, however, was dry, chewy and almost tasteless.We did not bother with pudding or cheese.The wines, naturally, were excellent and the venue of course is still superb.We had always recommended Three Choirs Restaurant to our friends, we shall not be doing the same for Vineyard Brasserie.

Fab food, amazing wines, great service what more could you want. The wine tasting is fun too all set in a fabulous setting in Gloucestershire. Vegan friendly food and wines too.

Habíamos oído mucho sobre los tres coros visitas a los viñedos, restaurante y alojamientos (que no probamos).

Staying near to the vineyard we decided to visit and go on the tour. A thoroughly enjoyable afternoon was had and my wife even found a white wine she enjoyed and twisted my arm to take a few bottles home. Our guide was very informative with a dry but amusing sense of humour. At the end of the tour we continued the tasting which resulted in a boot full of souvenirs, a really nice afternoon.

Visitamos con amigos y disfrutamos de una muy buena domingo asado. El menú variado y por tres platos cuesta £24,95 por cabeza. Sin duda recomendaría la carne asada con el único inconveniente es la cantidad de salsa en el plato. La comida era prácticamente haciendo la breaststroke! El personal era muy hospitalario y atento sin ser más atento. Restaurante con vistas al viñedo, con vistas a la colina. Un almuerzo muy agradable y volveremos. Esta visita también nos permitió la abastecerse con vino. Recomendamos especialmente el rojo 'Ravens Hill" y "Willow Brook blanco". a un precio muy razonable.

Nos alojamos por dos noches y no en cualquier oferta de la página web. A la llegada nos dijeron que para registrarse en la tienda de viñedos, donde esperamos a 20 minutos mientras que el recepcionista estaba hablando por teléfono. Finalmente se detuvo la llamada y nos acompañó hasta el restaurante donde ella vino y nos encontrará, añadiendo "De todas maneras no puedes reservar en hasta 3 pm!" No la bienvenida que nos esperaba.

celebrar el Día de la Madre, decidimos comer en El tres coros viñedo ya que había leído muy buenas críticas y pensé que sería una oportunidad perfecta para experimentar.

A good lunch, starters all different but great. Only downside was we all chose the belly pork with crackling and one our visitors had crackling that certainly was not. Even after sending back it was still very tough and certainly no crackle so meant we had to share ours which still wasn't the best - I can do better at home! Otherwise a good meal and good flavours and we certainly enjoyed the wine. Suggest everyone should buy on site as the offers for quantity purchase are great. We bought the Sparkling classic cuvee and the Coleridge hill -wine buff friends have thought both are fab but their delivery costs even on quanntity seem high so buy whilst there!finally its a good trip out for lunch with the added interest of the wine tour.

My boyfriend and I attended the Sunday lunch this week as a birthday treat. I have been before previously and never disappointed. 3 fabulous courses for £24:50 is a great deal considering the high standard of the food! I have no complaints about the food or presentation however parts of my dish were a little cold but not enough to complain as everything else was so so tasty! However at this price and high standard I would expect my Yorkshire pudding to be at least warm, but we will be returning! Views and wine are to die for!

Came for "vineyard tour & lunch", the food in the restaurant was excellent, really nice upmarket meal at a lovely venue & the wine tasting was fab. Even though we chose probably the worse weekend weather wise the lady who did the tour made it very enjoyable & was very informative. We brought 3 bottles of wines we tried on the day & also received a complimentary bottle of wine with our meal. A very

Twelve of us had a delicious three course lunch here. We had pre-ordered from a menu with four choices for each course and everyone was very satisfied with both quality and value. We drank the house white which was very reasonably priced and most acceptable. We had the private dining room, though did not feel cut off from the main area because we had the door open. Pre- and post-meal we sat in the lovely lounge area with a roaring fire and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

We arrived & enjoyed the most fabulous lunch our lodge wasn't ready but that wasn't a problem. We ordered pre lunch drinks in the lounge by the fire but we felt we were rushed to go to our table. After a gorgeous Lunch we went to out lodge it was warm & inviting & as we were battered overnight by storm Imogen it felt safe & warm fab bed lovely environment. Great breakfast but the restaurant needs a little more warmth on all levels. Big tip buy new towels for the bathrooms.

Visited for a friends birthday and as always just amazing! Service also excellent! Nice treat and we should go more often, 2 visits in 2 years - just not enough!

Each time we come there is a new imaginative menu with new unique dishes to try. Ate three couses! Very quiet the night we ate but very good service from attentive staff. Food was delicious, and perfectly cooked. Local food matched with a vinyard wine, and staying on site overnight

My wife and I with two of our friends had dinner at the restaurant last night . I have to say that we were very disappointed compared to the previous times . The service was very poor , on leaving the area where we had pre dinner drinks the waitress mixed up the glasses ( there was only two that she had to remember) . After opening the crackers non of the paper etc was removed ,and left on the table amongst the food when served . The venison portion was very small considering the extra supplement which we did not pay before .All in all very disappointed,and unlikely to return .

I have organised a charity meal here three years in a row. Each year around 20 of us have eaten. Everyone has always given very positive feedback and always looks forward to their next meal. This month I had a starter of prawns as did some of the others at my table - they were delicious - and the slow cooked beef I had for my main course was unforgettably good. My friends had two different bottles of red wine at the table which were highly praised. The staff were meticulous and impeccable in their attention. Very highly recommended.

Ambience was very good, warm and comfortable. The Christmas menu had a good selection with something for everyone. The service was good and the food was very good, well presented and well prepared. the wine list was well balanced and reasonably priced. Having tried their wine you could buy some to take away with you, as we did. A very enjoyable evening with friends.

Had been looking forward to trying this restaurant for lunch and was pleased to see it busy upon arrival, but felt slightly rushed as I think we were the last booking. Food and wine were ok, had a problem with the red wine, which they happily replaced with a new bottle.Not sure i would drive all that way to go back!

We have been here a few times and enjoyed our meals but went for lunch on a Saturday, taking friends who had never been before. The appetisers and main courses were very good but all four of our choices of dessert were very disappointing indeed. We were also amazed that at a restaurant of this standing there was no espresso available, only cafetières of coffee. We will not be going back any time soon.

lovely enjoyable Hour or so , touring the vineyard , it was a very cold day but still entertaining and informative.Its mostly outside with a little walking ,so do be prepared to combat the elements,, we shall return to enjoy the option of a walk through the field and vines in the summer, and stock up on some great wines.The accommodation and restaurant looks very tempting too

The Tilted Wig is well known in the town for consistent great food and great service even at the busiest times. Try lunch great choice at reasonable prices. Great selection wines however the house is great value.

Popped in on impulse and had a nice lunch View across the vineyards from the window tables very relaxingFood always excellent here, and presentation make it special tooService good if a bit quirky, not rushed but then you are paying a lot for lunch so don't want to be hurried

Driving home yesterday in my new car I was of course going the long way round to enjoy the new motor, as one does!So arriving in Newent anticipating lunch I was rather disappointed by the choices in the town to say the least. So carrying on my journey hoping to find somewhere decent to eat I stumbled upon Three Choirs and I must say what a staggeringly good discovery this was.The restaurant was very attractive, the food selection was comprehensive, the staff attentive and the wine, their own of course, was incredibly good according to my co-pilot - all I can say on the drinks front was that the water wasn't bad either!Whilst it could be said that the price for some would be on the high side it must be said that you certainly get what you pay for on so many levels.I can recommend the restaurant highly and I'm sure to revisit and enjoy so much more that the vineyard has to offer.

Beautiful food - quite upmarket so expect to be smart and be served in a formal atmosphere. We popped in off chance and felt a little out of place. Great service and food though and you can walk it all off exploring the vineyards after.

My husband and I have just returned from another brilliant weekend at Three Choirs vineyard. We stayed in one of their rooms overlooking the vineyard and ate in the restaurant both evenings. There was a great choice and the food we ordered was well presented and tasted as good as would be expected from this type of restaurant. Not the cheapest place we've stayed or eaten but worth every penny.

Having read lots of reviews before we went here. I like to do that if we're looking at spending a lot of money on a meal. It's got to be worth it and a bit special!!Well, all I can say is, yes it DEFINITELY was. The meal was absolutely outstanding, every course! Very very highly recommended for a special meal out :-)

My wife and I had dinner here on successive evenings. Both meals were excellent. The service was a little 'quirky' and a touch more professionalism wouldn't go amiss, but I'm not going to mark them down for that. The food is of a very high standard and is beautifully presented.We obviously tried the wines from the Three Choirs Vineyard and thought they were excellent - the sparkling, the dry 'sauvignon' and the "off-dry" Willow Brook. Hopefully the owners will by now have amended the notes in the menu relating to the Willow Brook... it's an excellent wine and deserves a more accurate description.The restaurant has a lovely outlook (over the vineyards) and has a nice ambience overall. I'm very happy to recommend this place.

This is a great place to eat and stay. The cottages are expensive but a great setting. The restaurant offers a good selection of food and is quality at a reasonable price

Our trip was a present: adopt a vine with lunch for two, a vineyard tour, and wine tasting, a fee bottle of wine and a discount on further purchases. Lunch was truly excellent with a really great menu in a restaurant with super views over the vines and surrounding countryside. The complimentary glass of sparkling wine went down a treat - we brought home a few! The restaurant is certainly one I'd go back to for another meal with all the choice I could wish for. And, of course, we need to go and encourage our adopted vine. If anyone is stuck for a present idea, the adopt a vine package is a brilliant choice, and one you'll be remebered for for a long time.

My wife and I planned a visit to buy some Three Choirs wine and booked for lunch at the same time. We sat down at about 12.45 and having ordered a glass of wine each waited for some 30 minutes before our starters arrived. We then waited another 30 minutes for our main courses, during which time we contemplated leaving and paying just for the wine and starters (there is a garden centre with a good café just down the road). My main course was particularly disappointing with two pieces of tough chicken breast and not much else. The restaurant was quite busy but there were vacant tables. We left just after 2 o'clock and when paying complained about the excessive waiting times, which fell on deaf ears.We live quite close by and have had really good meals in the past, but not this time. There are several excellent and far cheaper places to eat in the Gloucester/Cheltenham area, so we shall not be returning.to Three Choirs. A great pity.

We hadn't visited for a year or so but were pleased to find the quality of the food was as good as ever. As always, the venue is well decorated with beautiful views of the vineyard as the sun set. The staff are very professional and welcoming. The food is pricey but worth it, with portions you would expect from fine dining. The staff listened to my dietary requirements and were able to adapt all dishes to suit my needs. If you are visiting soon, I highly recommend the peanut butter sorbet (which was supposed to be with the milk, white and dark chocolate delice but I asked for it with a different dessert, and even got the recipe from the chef before I left as it was incredible!)

My 65th birthday treat was dinner at the Three Choirs Restaurant with my wife and close friend. Previous visits for lunch and dinner have been a nice experience, but this time it was not good. Service was unprofessional and slow. I requested a medium fillet which was rare and cold, I told the waiter but nothing happened, my wife and friends main courses were also cold. We sat down to eat at 1915 hrs the starters were a bit slow but the restaurant was busy however we did not get our main course until well after 2030hrs and they were cold. We would have liked a sweet and coffee but the night had been spoilt by poor service so we decided to leave. The last time we visited we had nice canapes and a selection of breads but not this time. When I was paying I complained to the manager who listened but left me with no hope for the future. She did admit that the waiting staff lacked experience which is an understatement considering how ill informed they were and clearly not properly trained in basic waiting skills and interacting with customers. Overall a very bad experience, we will not be visiting again, it's a shame because we live nearby.

We have visited this restaurant a number of times over the years often with friends and previously it has never let us down. In the Summer the ambience of the restaurant has always been enhanced by the wonderful views of the vineyard. On this occasion however, the mood was overshadowed by inattentive and abrupt service and rather average food. Even more disappointing was that having waited for half an hour after our main course was cleared away, we were not offered a dessert menu even though the waiting staff seemed to have little more to do than make up tables for the following day. When we asked for the bill, we expressed our dissatisfaction and although we received an apology of sorts, there was no attempt on behalf of the restaurant to redeem the situation. In fact we'd go as far as to say that are complaint was greeted with total indifference. We would have expected far better service from a restaurant of this calibre.

Booked into the restaurant prior to taking the tour. Lovely, well presented food. But felt a little rushed because the main course took too long to come out.

We were given the lunch and tour as a birthday present for my husband. We booked a Nearby B & B so we did not have to drive. The weather on Friday was terrible, but we did not let this spoil the day and dressed accordingly. I did feel a little casual in the wonderful restaurant, but that was down to how I would have liked to dress rather than dressing for the weather. We were early, but warmly welcomed and enjoyed our first glass of wine whilst sitting on a comfy sink in leather sofa. We were shown to a table with wonderful views of lavendar and vineyards with a White House on top of the hill. It felt as though we had crossed the Channel rather than still being in Gloucestershire. We had thought we would have struggled to take two hours for lunch but it was so relaxing time flew by and we met those who like us were booked onto the tour. The lady who conducted it was really knowledgable and answered every question. Part of the tour was outside, but we all had umbrellas and the rest was inside. During the tour we were given a sample of four wines to try, all lovely. At the end of the tour you could wander off on your own and walk around the vines. We did this with brollies up on the way out bought a bottle of wine.

We dropped in here on a cold wet day in May while travelling between Cirencester and Wales. We had a wine tasting first followed by lunch. The wines were very nice especially the sparking. If we could buy the sparkling here in Australia I would. We then had pre-lunch drinks in the lounge area followed by a lovely lunch in the restaurant. The restaurant staff were excellent and the food was great. We sat at a table by the windows looking out over the vineyard. I would definitely go back again for a meal if we are in the area.

Although we only paid a brief visit to buy wine we were greeted warmly and given some background to the wines and brandy (yes they sell their own!!) we bought. Like the setting will return probably to do the tour and eat there.

I reviewed this restaurant on 4 July 2013. By sheer coincidence we ate there again two years further on to the day and it's worth updating the previous review.The service, location and quality of the overall offering remain first rate. What has changed - perhaps the influence of a new chef? - is a discreet Eastern feel to the menu. So, for example, my starter of charred wood pigeon breast was accompanied by pickled mushrooms and kimchi carrot - in both cases the not-overdone flavourings both complemented the meat splendidly. All of us opted for the breast of duck main course. This was accompanied by dauphinois potatoes and, picking up the Eastern theme again, Middle Eastern grains with pomegranate seeds. This went very well indeed with the duck, which was cooked to perfection, the meat pink and juicy.The menus still features prominently ingredients which are locally-sourced, which is great to see. On a lovely sunny July evening the view out across the vineyard provided the perfect setting and a bottle of the vineyard's 2013 Bacchus was a refreshing accompaniment to the delicious food.

I have been lucky enough to visit The Three Choirs Vineyard restaurant countless times during the past few years. It is quite simply a beautiful, stunning setting, not far from the town of Newent. The restaurant and seating outside overlooks the beautiful, rolling, south facing vineyard. The views are magnificent. Be warned, it can be very hot in when the temperatures get into the mid twenties. It is a suntrap! My family and i visited because it was Nan's 97th Birthday and it was also mom Mom's birthday too. Now let me first of all say that The Three Choirs Vineyard restaurant has gradually progressed the past few towards becoming a high end eatery. The lunchtime menu was a la carte, though there was also a few specials offered as well. I had the goats cheese to start, which was beautifully presented and it tasted as good as it looked. I loved the contrast between the piquancy of the three way goats cheese and the sweetness of the raisins. For my main course i had rump of lamb with and assortment of vegetables and bacon lardons. It was tasty, tender and the meat was medium as i had asked. The vegetables were also perfectly cooked. I had the warm carrot cake for dessert, which with the benefit of hindsight was a mistake on a very warm day. Nonetheless, it will still very nice. The chocolate delice with peanut butter sorbet looked very good. I must admit i tried some of the peanut butter sorbet and it was stunning. The service was good, though the restaurant was very quiet because it was a Monday. The tables are nicely presented and there is plenty of space between them. My only criticism of The Three Choirs Vineyard is price. I am not sure £21.00 for lamb rump is justifiable. Whilst it was good, it wasn't that amazing. I have eaten in Michelin star restaurants for less. The starters are also pricey and £8.50 for the goats cheese could also be seen as a little steep. I don't quite know what The Three Choirs Vineyard restaurant is trying to be. It is clearly isn't a gastropub or a Michelin star restaurant. So, it flits somewhere between the two. To me, the lamb rump was no more than a £16.00 dish, which is what you would expect to pay in a very good gastropub. What i think you are paying for is the view. It is stunning, i must admit. What does also make me laugh is the house wine, which is grown on the vineyard and it was £16.00 a bottle. I know last year, when one of the party had the house wine, the disparity in price between what it sold for in the restaurant and in their own shop, which we visited afterwards was something like £8.00 last year. It was exactly the same wine! To me, that can't be justified. However, despite these little niggles, it wouldn't stop me from taking my family and friends to The Three Choirs Vineyard restaurant again. Indeed, i will certainly be visiting soon and have recommended it to my colleagues at work.

My husband was given a voucher for his birthday. This included lunch, wine-tasting a bottle of wine and an adopt a vine named after him. The whole experience was superb from a delicious lunch a well informed tour of the vineyard and wine-tasting. The bonus was that I was invited too!! I would thoroughly recommend a trip here and even more it's a great idea for a present. We have also been for Sunday lunch and are taking friends for a surprise birthday treat this weekend. The food is excellent the setting stunning and the wine top class.

Came here for lunch on Saturday with a friend. The setting is beautiful and we enjoyed tasting some of the wines in the shop even purchasing a bottle of Rose` to take home.Service was good although the food itself is very pricey. That said the unique surroundings and style of food probably warrant the price tag. Would recommend a visit.

I was given a tour of the vineyard and wine-tasting voucher as a birthday present, so we decided to enjoy lunch there as well. We even booked a little lodge down the road for the night, so we could enjoy a bottle of wine with lunch, as well as the wine tasting. This proved to be an excellent idea as the tasting consisted of sampling 4 glasses of wine, so it was a good thing we weren't driving afterwards! The lunch was superb and the service excellent. We were also impressed with the wine, and went back the next day with the car to buy a few bottles from the shop. Would definitely go again.

Being relatively new to the area and really enjoying Three Choirs wine we decided to try the restaurant for a special anniversary meal following the good reviews on Trip Advisor.We have eaten in many places over the years and perhaps our expectations are higher than other reviewers or this was a poor night, but after the meal on the way home we both decided broke the silence to admit we didn't think it was very good.In summary the location is good, the wine and coffee were good, but all courses of the meal were essentially tasteless and the service indifferent. Not sure if the chef forgot to season the dishes or if there were other issues as the food quality appeared good, but it didn't come though to the palate.

We have been going here for over ten years for Birthdays and special occasions. Tonight was not good. Normally we are offered a varied choice of breads but tonight just one and as soon as we'd eaten it the side plates were cleared. You used to get asked if you wanted another piece. My partners lamb was so tough and fatty that she could not eat it and was way off the excellent standard we have experienced in the past. When we mentioned it, a replacement was offered immediately but this would have meant us eating separately. We were due to book for my usual July birthday but we are so disappointed we will not this year. We suspect the chef has changed and this was sort of confirmed. My partners main course was removed from the final bill but this does not alter the fact that something we were so looking forward to was not like our many previous visits.

Family member has a vine at the three choirs and has been for the wine tours and also to stay in overnight ,they have always enjoyed the food and the wine. Our lunch was lovely, nice I'd ess s to have selection of sharing platters. Selection of veggie food was different and enjoyed the corvette and brie soup. Desserts were very good especially the rhubarb parfait and chocolate cup. Selection of wines available to purchase in the shop but able to taste before buying. Lovely outlook from the restaurant across the vineyard.

The girl who did the tour was very good and the tour was interesting, but English wine remains a novelty and is not meant to be drunk. Go to the falconry centre!

I initially adopted a vine for my husband in 2008 and we have been making an annual trip ever since. This time we came just for lunch. We had a window table positioned such that we had a good view over the vineyard. We had a set lunch which had a reasonable choice. The soup was rather good as was the rare beef with blue cheese starter. I chose the fish platter which was excellent for my main 0be hungry! The prawns were lovely and not overcooked; the salmon and crab were plentiful and of good quality. The lamb enjoyed by my husband was tender and full of flavour. We enjoyed our sparkling wine; this competes well with more famous and expensive champagnes.Service is friendly and certainly not pretentious. I consider the set lunch to be of reasonable value.

Good food and attentive waitersFood however was expensive!Nice to walk through the vines after the meal and shop worth a visit. But again English wines are pricey. You are encouraged to sample the wines on offer which was good

A fabulous and informative wine tasting tour with a complimentary glass to take home as a momento. We stayed at the Three Choirs as part of a Travelzoo deal which proved to be of excellent value for money.

Dinner was very good, I had courgette risotto, sea bass and rhubarb parfait, but we felt each dish was over-priced by about a £1. Decor in the restaurant is OK without having a 'wow' factor.

My wife and I dropped by on the off chance of having an early (about 12.30) lunch. After hanging around the reception area for a while a member of staff appeared having been dealing with a table of about four in the restaurant. Another couple was perusing menus. I explained that we would like lunch and hadn't booked, to be floored by, "I'm very busy, can you come back in a few minutes?" Needless to say we didn't but instead went to the Kilcot Inn where we were welcomed and fed well. Can't comment on the food, cleanliness or value so given average rating.

The staff are wonderful and friendly. They are very swift and it is reasonably priced. It was a great day out with my mum and dad, we all enjoyed it. The food was lovely and was all cooked to perfection.

We have visited this restaurant many times over the years. It is not cheap, but prices are comparable with other quality restaurants .Booking can be difficult on weekends and it is necessary to make a reservation well ahead.Staff are always agreeable and helpful.We are trying out the New Years Eve package this year.

We've been to this venue before and enjoyed our visits and the food in the restaurant. On our latest trip, we tried the Christmas menu. This was excellent - tasty, quality, well cooked and good value. We were very well fed. Service was excellent. We love the practice of placing out a bottle or two of the vineyard's own wine for you to sample in the reception area. It's a great way of deciding what to have with your meal! We find the venue very comfortable and relaxed with fantastic outlook onto the actual vineyard. Parking is no problem. Highly recommended.

We've been here in the past and found the staff unhelpful. this time they were very welcoming and professional. The menus was excellent; view delightful; their wines very good and complemented the meal well. Coffee by the woodburner on comfy sofas was a delight.Fully recommend.

We attended an 80th birthday party on 6th December, the welcome and venue were superb, matched by some excellent wines from the vineyard, I had a salmon roulade, to start which was light and just excellent, some lace with so much dill it over powers the core flavours, this hit the spot, followed by a very well cooked sea bass, perfectly cooked vegetables, and to finish with a lovely plate of British cheese, the cheeses were good, and serve d at the correct temperature, the beef blade main, also seem to go down very well, washed down with a good choice of wines,we will defintely be going again and will stay in one of the lodges, that looked great, service was very attentive, and unobtrusive which was a credit.

We visited this restaurant with thirteen friends last week for Sunday lunch. I had pre ordered everyone's order to save time and I must say that everything was perfect. The food and service was brilliant, nothing was too much trouble for any of the young staff. Its not the first time we have been there and it certainly won't be the last.

We attended for dinner on a Saturday night for a friend's birthday. The service was friendly and attentive, the tables were wide and spacious. There was a varied menu and it appeared to be all local and fresh food offered. The food itself was wonderful: very tasty, fresh, plentiful portion sizes and very well presented. The wine was from the vineyard and was a perfect match to our chosen food. Lovely relaxed surroundings too. We will definitely be returning.

Excellent quality food, well presented in pleasant surroundings. A good selection on the menu and reasonably priced.
