Vintner in Stratford-on-Avon

Good quality was good tasty not a great amount but we would definitely visit again whole experience was enjoyable

Food again was extremely good. Excellent value with plenty of options for everyone. Service impeccable as always. It’s our go to place in Stratford

Could not have been better. All aspects excellent!

Great place to have lunch with friends. The service is excellent and the menu offers something for everyone. I had the monkfish and it was very good.

The Vintner has always been a favourite place to eat and it continues to maintain its reputation for excellent food and service.

Easy to book on line. Staff friendly and helpful. Food was very good and reasonably priced. Lovely atmosphere. This is our second visit here. 😊

Fantastic service and ambiance, food was very nice, with an acceptable price, overall excellent would definitely recommend and return again ourselves

We visit Stratford 3or4 times a year for the RSC and always go to the Vintner and it never disappoints.Nice and quite atmosphere,the food is always outstanding and the staff are always friendly and helpful.

We had an excellent experience, lunch and very good table in a superb location. Could not fault it. Thank you, we’ll be back.

Always a pleasure and a firm favourite. Great mains all round- pheasant, mussels, mushroom and halloumi burger and steak sandwich. Nice choice of reds. A relaxed, warm and friendly bistro.

Just a lovely evening Sat downstairs in a little alcove it was lovely. Staff all very friendly and attentive. We both had mussels to start which were just delicious followed by hot sandwiches and fries which again were totally delicious

We had a simple one course lunch and the food was delicious though quite pricy if you don’t have the set menu. Staff were lovely as always

Excellent service and delicious food with great option for GF and other requirements.

Always Excellent never disappoints . Food great , slightly limited menu , service lovely reasonably priced

Lovely evening. Fabulous food the steak melted in your mouth. Will be returning

Just wonderful, Two of us were gluten free. We were very well catered for. We ate off the pre-theatre menu delicious & very reasonable Superb service

Excellent town centre restaurant. Consistently good

Delicious lunch to celebrate two anniversaries with friends. Consistently excellent, always my first choice in Stratford. Shame the Gruyère soufflé has been replaced for the Xmas menu… please bring it back soon

Very enjoyable lunch. Food was divine & front of house service was attentive & very welcoming. Will definitely be returning

Always freshly cooked food. Nice wine, friendly place to eat. Pre theatre meal.

We have just enjoyed a lovely business lunch at The Vitner. The service was fantastic as always, and the food was very tasty set in a lovely environment

Lovely food, cosy atmosphere and friendly staff. Another great evening!

Great service & delicious, well-presented food. Lovely ambience. Highly recommended. Can’t fault this place.

A warm welcome, organised, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Cozy and warm. Excellent food (king prawn with peri-peri sauce as a starter, chicken with lime and melon for mains - can recommend both) paired with a smooth Gavi d’ Gavi that “flicked the nose”. Will be back - regularly.

Great food, great service and great atmosphere. Excellent choice on menu.

Lovely place , food was excellent, service was excellent too , pay a little more for non chain pub restaurants, would love to return , beautiful old building.

Excellent meals and service. Brought friends from out of town and all very impressed.

We had a wonderful small birthday celebration lunch. The team of staff serving were excellent friendly and helpful. Care was taken to select a nice table as requested, although it’s not so hard as all tables are good. We were greeted with happy birthday ! Food menu is varied from burgers to mains and all our selected meals could not have been bettered . The mussels were amazing! My steak was beautifully cooked to rare and the fish was also excellent. Interesting range of wines also available. I recommend this restaurant as something special which is always consistently excellent.

Staff were great and didn’t pressure us for orders - we were too busy chatting ha ha but they were very patient and polite. A warm welcome from them too. Good customer service and staff are becoming a rare breed - so please thank your staff for their great service. Food was super too and no raised eyebrows when my friend and I decided to share starter and pudding. I haven’t been to Vintner for many years and it lived up to expectations! Thank you !

Always great. Thoroughly recommend for any visitor to Stratford

We booked the private dining room for a meal after our civil partnership ceremony. The room was the perfect size for 16, the menu had a good range to suit a variety of tastes and was enjoyed by all. Our waitress was superb and gave attentive service without intruding. So glad we chose The Vintner.

We had a great evening dinner at Vintners, good menu choice, we had the mussels and prawns as starter and Rib eye for main which was excellent. Service was very goodz

We had a table booked for 2.30pm and were all looking forward to a roast. As we sat down the waitress said ‘there is no pork left, and I will have to check on the beef’ She came back and there was 2 portions left. Although the 3 of us found other things on the menu which we enjoyed it was very disappointing that the ‘meal of the day’ had run out so quickly.

We had a great meal and couldn’t really fault anything. Excellent value and quality. The staff were lovely

Lovely venue to enjoy excellent food & service, and a very good choice on the menu.

Disappointed with the ambiance upstairs, the space was chilly and with no other diners was distinctly lacking in ambiance.

Great food slightly slow service but they were very busy.

We were here in Stratford for a special night. But, frankly, we'd have headed to the Vintner for any night. Its reputations has always been brilliant. And on this autumnal Monday, we wanted to go somewhere that on a chill autumnal evening felt a bit comforting. And so it was. The welcome from the staff, and the service throughout, was understatedly friendly, attentive and warm. We launched straight into main courses - the mushroom burger and fishcakes. Both were superb. Indeed, Mrs B said her mushroom burger was the best burger she's ever had. My cheeseboard was a tiny bit chilly, as if just lifted from the fridge, but Mrs B's sticky toffee pudding was terrific and not at all chilly. So, yes, the Vintner is still doing great things. We had a wonderful evening - a combination of great food and attentive service. Thanks to you all.

Second visit there and it was a very good experience.

Great place for pre theatre / lunch ; whole menu available all day and evening. A very enjoyable meal after RST.

Always excellent. Great staff, great food, always a good atmosphere.

Highly recommended the set price lunch menu. Great food, excellent price, pleasant & patient staff (we took ages to look at the menu as there were 6 of us that had some catching up to do) & a lovely table upstairs away from the street. Can’t wait for the next time.

Enjoyed another fantastic meal here with family. I would especially recommend the lime and curry chicken dish, it’s amazing! Service friendly and efficient, perhaps a tiny bit slow at the end after our main waitress had left. However we look forward to returning when next in Stratford and would highly recommend.

Lovely evening. Puddings were outstanding. Mains good although portion size for sides was a little disappointing. Service excellent and wonderful ambience with great choice of drinks to accompany food. We will definitely be returning!

I would highly recommend Vintners. The staff were very welcoming and efficient. The menu was very varied and the food excellent.

Absolutely outstanding as always The food always scrumptious

Ive been going to the Vintner, as its my favourite resturant in Stratford, for over 30 years. Always a great menu lots to chose from i like. Reasonable price. Great surroundings.

Great as always. Possibly overall the best restaurant in Stratford.

Great food, excellent friendly service and even booked us a taxi to get home Went on a friend's recommendation but will certainly come back

Lovely as always…. Food took a little while to come out, but it didn’t matter because we were chatting with friends

I’ve never had a bad meal here. Good food well presented. Excellent for pre theatre meal as your out quite quickly

Really good menu. Enjoyed our choices very much. We had a new waitress and she was delightful.

Food was lovely, we had the pre-theater set menu which was good value however if purchased from menu I think these items may have been a bit pricey for what you got. Having said that, the food was delicious! Service was second to none, highly attentive , polite and food served very quickly. We arrives at 5 and had 3 courses served plus coffee within an hour!

Fabulous service and great staff. Always a pleasure dining at Vintners as it never disappoints. Thank you

Great relaxed environment, good food and friendly service. Enjoyed our meal

Outstanding food from a very reasonably priced pre-theatre set menu. We sat in a quiet corner under the stairs and the noise level was very acceptable. The food came quickly, staff were very attentive and the quality was exceptional.

Consistently good place to dine! Food is fabulous, staff are lovely and its a lovely ambience from the moment you step through the door. We first came here about 30 years ago and have been coming at least once a year, sometimes more, since! We live about an hour and a half away so we wouldn't do the journey if it wasn't worth it! Well done to all at The Vintner!

Made Very Welcome on arrival, very pleasant Staff & Attentive. Ordered Scallops Starter & Ribeye Steak Main. Food was presented & Cooked perfectly. Very Enjoyable. 😛

Always love visiting here, a fantastic building with a great atmosphere, lovely staff and nice food.

Lovely evening - great food and service thank you

Fab as always -prawns and soufflé are my recommendations !

Four of us dined here yesterday, everyone agreed the food was delicious and the service just right. I can personally recommend the tandoori sea bass fillet, it was very tasty.

We had a very enjoyable evening. Great food and atmosphere.

Lovely ambience. Great food. Overall - fantastic!

Great table. Great service. We both had same two courses, the soup and the belly pork. Both were up to the usual excellent standard we’ve come to expect here.

Loved the food, service and ambience but just one gripe. I had tiger prawns as a starter, which were £12.95, I think. They were gorgeous, but I just had 4, which for £12 to £13, doesn't represent good value for me. I'd like to see this increased to 6 which would be better value yet not impinge on following courses. As I say it's a small gripe, we'd certainly go again

Always nice food at the Vintner, been coming here for years. Pleasant staff.

Lovely restaurant - staff very attentive - food and wine great - will return

Late lunch on a quiet afternoon. We've never been here before but would highly recommend. Very pleasant staff, good prompt service, delicious food, very reasonably priced and lovely setting.

Great dinner! The steaks were delicious, the lemon tart was outstanding, and the atmosphere was lovely. The waitstaff was very attentive. Highly recommend!

We visited for Sunday Lunch. I ordered roast pork, the other 2 guests both had roast beef. All 3 meals were excellent, and the yorkshire puddings were great. I mabaged to sqyeeze in pudding - coconut and mango panna cota. This was delicious! I go to the Vintner a couple of times a year when visiting family and the food is always good. This time I was particulatly impressed with the customer service. The front of house staff were very friendly and welcoming. I felt valued. Thank you.

Fabulous food combined with fabulous service, we were made to feel very special Thank you

Overall we had a good experience. I would always prefer not to sit upstairs - there is much less ambience. We were also sat on a corner table that was jammed in behind another table. However the service was good and the French Rose good and well chilled. The chorizo hash starter was a bit underwhelming - not really a hash. However the buttermilk chicken with pasta and mushrooms was delicious. 10/10 for that.

We booked this restaurant on recommendation for our anniversary but unfortunately we were really disappointed. The starters were fine garlic prawn and Pate. But the mains were very basic and nothing special for the price. The lasagne was runny more like spaghetti bolognese in a dish and the ham egg & chips was bland and the chips very greasy. We did make our views known to the staff on duty but all they offered was a free drink which we refused. They did finally offer to reduce the bill by one main meal. We have decided we will not return to this restaurant based on our experience

Haven't eaten here for a good few years, but the standard is still very high. Service was good, but could of been a little more friendlier we felt. Overall, you won't go wrong with the food, but you will pay for the privilege! Can recommend if you want a lovely meal for a special occasion.

This is always great and didn’t disappoint most recently. I have visited on and off since the 80s! Ate a fabulous pre theatre meal. Delicious three course meal and outstanding value. Service was cheery, warm and impeccable. Loved it!

Went for breakfast and dinner on the same day as we were feeling very lazy! Poached eggs on avocado toast was very good and tasty. Husband had granola. All excellent. Dinner again excellent. They were busy but the service was slick and the lovely waitress/manager from breakfast was still there! Faultless service and food.

Another great meal, and the staff are warm and friendly

We have been to Vintners quite regularly & it's always been excellent.

We came to Stratford -upon-Avon for a performance at.the RSC theatre. We came to the restaurant earlier than our booked time at 17:45, made our order at 17:50 and got our drinks in no time , shortly followed by the starters. Having eaten the starters, we gave a lot of time for the mains to follow and eventually told the waitress that we'd be late for oir performance half an hour before it's start. As no food arrived to our table we just ad to stand up and walk. What a shame for a place with high scoring whoever made that score?!!

The Vintner is our favourite restaurant in Stratford. We really look forward to eating there. Last night the food was exceptionally slow in arriving. We had to wait over an hour after ordering for our food to arrive. It is usually quick, but apparently last night there was an unexplained problem in the kitchen. Furthermore, the portion of Mediterranean vegetables was minuscule and over cooked. The side portion of veg was smaller than usual and slightly overcooked. The Manager and staff were very apologetic and we were not charged for the food or drinks. However, the experience of eating at the Vintner last night was spoilt for us. We will return, as we have had good previous experiences.

Booked an early pre theatre dinner for a second wedding anniversary. Staff came straight away to take order before we had time to look through menu. They never came back. We had to go call a member of staff. They took order and never came back with any updates or food. Finally we had to go downstairs to find a staff member and ask when food would come as we now had only 20 minutes before needing to leave for the theatre - we'd been there for over an hour at this stage and the place wasn't even full. After 5 mins a polite waitress came to say they're looking into it. No one came back so we had to leave without eating. They were happy enough to take payment for our drinks. I suggest you never book to eat here! And certainly don't trust this place for a special occasion!

Excellent food and superb service which was down to great waiting staff

Lovely service and excellent food. The seabream was absolutely delicious!!

Very good menu choice and the food was delicious. Staff were friendly and professional. Busy restaurant with a lovely atmosphere, very old world with beams and character.

Wonderful meal in a great restaurant with lovely ambience.

The food was absolutely amazing! I had the crispy pork salad to start and the rump steak for main with peppercorn sauce. The staff were also fantastic.

I took my mum out for her bday and she ordered the Ham, egg and chips. She said it was amazing, thick slices juicy ham and perfectly cooked egg and chips. I had the breast of chicken roasted in lime butter with mango, spinach, mild curry sauce and basmati rice. IT WAS BEAUTIFUL😍 We also had a glass of Hugo Spritz which I would also recommend. It is a blend of Prosecco, elderflower and soda water - very refreshing. I will definitely be back!

Excellent service. Excellent food. Drinks a tad expensive.

Lovely quirky restaurant, with old fashioned beams and low ceilings. Staff were excellent and we had a nice rapport with our server. Food, drinks and service were excellent. I’d highly recommend the Cajun sandwich!

What an amazing restaurant! The staff were perfect, the food was piping hot, delicious, cocktails beautiful, great wines and Ella one of our servers was just an absolute joy to chat to as were all the other staff to be honest! Might even go again this week😁

Good celebration meal, staff were warm and friendly. Table was not ideal but we enjoyed ourselves anywat

Great night catching up with school friends who have remained life long friends. Excellent food and service and did not look to kick us out even when the time ticked past midnight. Only downside was a ‘happy clappy’ group, what seemed to be a wedding party, who insisted on singing the same song on and off for 3 hours.

My wife and I had a lovely pre theatre meal at the Vinter. The olives were lovely and the starters great. The mains were really tasty and nicely cooked - the Hake was cooked to perfection and the Tajine was great. The service was outstanding - very attentive staff.

Excellent service and delicious food. A gem of a restaurant in the heart of Stratford Upon Avon. Thanks for a lovely evening and great table Marceena

Lovely venue, food, staff and ambience. Really love this dining experience

Our favourite local restaurant. Always delicious food and great staff.

We were fortunate to visit at a quiet time and could not fault any aspect of the restaurant, will definitely return!

Excellent service, food of the highest quality, a beautiful restaurant with lovely ambiance.

As always the food was of excellent quality, the service superb.
