Vine House Farm Shop & Cafe in South Holland

The restaurant now does a large cup of latte but with an upgrade cost of an extra £1. The cup is not that much bigger than the standard, you get the same amount of coffee just a little more milk. Most coffee shops charge an extra 30-40p for a larger cup. How do they warrant a £1 for the extra milk? We enjoy going the restaurant but don’t want to be ripped off.

Having had breakfast here a few weeks ago we returned for lunch and were not disappointed. The ploughman's was lovely, nice pork pie, haslet and cheese, fresh bread and a flavoursome salad. Quite busy and lots of people out on the decking enjoying the sun and the wild flower view. Good service too.

Lovely cafe,lovely,smartly dressed staff lovely food.Thankyou. Cafe interior very nice although a bit breezy due to open doors yo outside seating.The bird names by the owner were funny.Interesting reading about how the bird population was expanded in the grounds thanks to their feeding regime expansion.

Tasty food excellent service. Had breakfast here, first visit. Quality food and exceptionally customer focused. Will definitely return.

Sunflower tour was excellent really enjoyed it and very informative followed by great food in the cafe with very friendly and helpful staff Karen in particular. Would definitely come again

We arrived at 11.15 so it was the breakfast menu available…my son chose the full English breakfast, he also chose not to have the eggs, beans and tomatoes…his choice I understand but when we asked if these could be exchanged for another sausage/bacon or mushrooms we were told no…it is £12.50 so a lot for what he actually got. I had coffee and what looked like a delicious biscoffi sponge. Unfortunately the sponge could have been any flavour as didn’t taste of any biscoffi. The cafe itself is a lovely space with a nice feel. A mix of tables/chairs/a few sofas and what looked like a lovely outside area with children’s play area. Everyone has their own opinions but mine will be not to return.

The quality of goods in the shop is excellent and well laid out. The cafe is as good as you will get anywhere in the area. The staff are always courteous and the food excellent. Only one problem, the car park, on a wet day it is like a mud bath. It just spoils it a bit.

Disappointed to find each of my frozen meal purchases were uplifted by 10p at the till, with no explanation. This has happened before. Check the price label on the pack against your till receipt!! Very sneeky Vine House Farm shop!

Very impressed with this place from start to finish 👍 Parking 👍 Farm Shop was possibly the best that we have ever seen 👍 A big thank you to Dave on the Butchery counter today 👍 Amazing selection of all things garden bird related 👍 Cafe was lovely 👍 Thoroughly enjoyed my Gammon Ham with parsley sauce, mash and buttered cabbage 👍 Reasonably priced 👍 We visited twice today. Once on our journey out for coffee and once on our return journey home for our lunch. We did have to wait a while however they have a buzzer system 👍 Envisage it can get very busy. I gather they were a little short of staff today however the team were working extremely hard and efficiently to serve the customers. Well done to all concerned 👏👏👏

NYE and my nieces 16th bday! We have been here twice before for bday brunches and have always been impressed. We are a family of 15 and go out often for meals and we always have some kinda of issue with missing orders, cold food and fair to middlin’ service. However, the opposite is true at Vine Farm cafe. We absolutely love everything about Vine Farm cafe. Welcoming, professional, neat in aprons and matching uniform. Staff who are all well versed in customer service. Nothing was an issue: taking photos, taking orders etc. We all loved the way the lead server announced first: two vegetarian breakfasts, then the full English x5, then the smashed avocado on toast etc etc. Seamless service, lovely food and a great ambience. We will be back xxx

Popped in speculatively for a weekday morning coffee. Despite it being busy we were greeted warmly and shown to a table. No queue for ordering and the scone and drinks arrived promptly. Plenty of staff who are willing to interact and make sure your visit is a success. Thank you.

So so disappointed with the meal today. Paying good money for food that basically was an insult to serve. Portion size seemed more like scraps . We should have said something but we just won’t bother going again. If I was the chef I would be so embarrassed to send food out like that. ☹️

I came over to the Vine house today and for the first time was very disappointed. I had a breakfast and it was cold. Everything was over cooked including the toast. Sadly the prices have increased and the portion sizes reduced and it didn’t feel value for money. I think the soft drinks were very expensive as well. Shame because it’s a lovely place to visit.

This is a great place. Myself and my daughter are gluten free and they had plenty of options. Portion sizes are very generous. Definitely recommend a visit.

Travelled down from Yorkshire and met my daughter. Daughter is coeliac and after asking about GF had a lovely Avacado sandwich with a big salad and slaw in really nice GF bread. Good value and customer service and cleanliness good. However I ordered a bacon sandwich, literally two slices of bread with a meagre amount of bacon for over £5. I took the sandwich back and suggested the bacon portion was a bit mean, she and her crowd of colleagues who all nebbed in, agreed and she checked with the chef who's response was 'i put 2 rashers in every sandwich'! tbh that's tight and expensive.

Went here for breakfast with partner and had the full cooked breakfast. I think the quality of items was pretty good but unfortunately after waiting over 30 mins for our food it was obvious it had been sitting in the kitchen for some time as the egg yolk was hard and rubbery and the bacon almost inedible. Other people were served quicker and their food looked freshly cooked. Will not visit again

Fantastic food, service and venue. We sat outside overlooking the wild meadow and lake. The food was hot, and served with a smile

Exceptional Farm Shop and Café. The focus is on local suppliers of quality produce, served by knowledgeable, enthusiastic and friendly staff. This farm shop might not be en-route to many places, but it is a destination! …. It even has car chargers.

ok we are hear today just for refreshmants it is my 2nd time hear and it is very big place and very dissable friendly from the large car park to inside the cafe and veg part it as very good room to move in the cafe bit with the tables and chairs ect a very nice clean place n ice staff plenty to do out side the very large area in the cafe big bit on the wall is a very good list of things to see and do

We had wanted to visit here ever since we saw 'A Wild Year -The Fens' on the BBC. Vine House Farm was featured on the programne as the farmer made space for the birds and other wildlife on the farm. We went for breakfast, I had a vegetarian breakfast and my husband had the full English. Both were delicious and the coffee was good. We went back the next day and I had the best toasted cheese and chutney sandwich ever. They use as much of their own and other local produce as possible and the shop sells it including flour from Boston as well as their own free range eggs. They sell the wild bird food that is grown as a crop at the farm. It was a pleasure to discover toileteries sold in refiillable glass bottles (lovely tee-tree and mint shampoo). There is an emphasis on local produce and sustainability. Outside of the cafe is a wild flower and herb garden. The staff are friendly. It will become a regular stop we continue to explore this beautiful area.

Lovely farm shop with a great butchers selling beautiful tasty excellent quality products. The fresh veg is great too. Lots of brilliant looking ready meals if you are wanting those, and farm and locally produced beers and ciders. Also lovely eggs, cheeses and breads too. The cafe is a bonus. The beautiful garden area is very informative and lovely to walk through. Great place to visit and shop for quality foods.

Visited Vine House Farm Cafe for afternoon tea this Mother’s day and was met with amazing service from staff. The food itself was delicious and all locally sourced. The afternoon tea itself was more than enough food for us and we were happily provided with boxes so we could take the remaining cakes home to enjoy.

It was apparent from our visit just how popular this place is, and when we can say that having tasted the food we can see why. Although not an extensive menu, the food is locally produced, much of it from Vine House Farm itself. So excellent fresh ingredients, well prepared adds up to an above average meal and we highly recommend you visit and try yourselves, we will certainly be visiting again.

We’ve been quite a few times to eat here. The staff are lovely & the place is clean & welcoming. However, a cheese toasty is now nearly £10! This comes with slaw & salad but I feel they’re pushing their prices up far too much...

We have been coming to Vine House for breakfast twice a week since it opened but that will be coming to an end. Prices are going up and portion sizes are going down. Bacon rashers are half the size they used to be and extra...

Lunch with a friend. Ordered the jacket potato with beetroot and feta from the specials. It was delicious but no butter given so potato was dry. I used mayonnaise instead. Plentiful portion though. Then we had coffee and cake. Expensive for what you get but...

First visit won’t be our last. Great breakfast menu. Will return for lunch in the future as menu looked tempting. Friendly staff. Clean environment. Indoor and outdoor seating. Outdoor overlooks wildlife pond. Children’s fenced play area in progress.

This is far more than a farm shop cafe! Super food and what a choice too! Staff are Friendly too. Local produce is a massive bonus.

Enjoyed a tasty breakfast on a Sunday morning. I had porridge with honey and strawberries and a latte my daughter had a sausage bap and apple juice . Ingredients sourced locally. A friendly welcome from knowledgeable and attentive staff. Good prices, will definitely visit again.

What a lovely addition to the local landscape. The food is nice, I do hope the menu expands as this new cafe finds its feet. Maybe a toasted panini menu or bagels in the form f eggs benedict? The staff were lovely and very polite....
