Winemakers Deptford in Lewisham - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We had an amazing evening at Deptford Winemakers last night. Great wine list with really interesting choices available by the glass - I loved my glass of orange wine. The food was excellent and almost everything was gluten free. Lots of lovely small plates and an amazing chocolate nemesis for pudding. Lovely decor with a beautiful old bar. Will definitely be coming back !

A little gem situated on Deptford High Street.Atmospheric decor. Charming host and bar connoisseur, local celebrated artist Toby..

We were really excited to go to Winemakers, having seen the wine list on their website advertising an amazing selection of fine wines at prices that appeared too good to be true. Unfortunately, it was too good to be true: instead, we were told that the wine list on the website is a bit out of date and were instead shown a completely different range of wines (at entirely different price points). It was essentially a different bar - although there were quirky wines that might have appealed, it was worlds away from what their misleading website had promised. Don’t waste your time if that is what you’re hoping for. They avoided a 1-star review only because Toby, the waiter who single-handedly entertained the whole bar, was very helpful and knowledgable about the wines that they did have.

We've lived in Deptford for 3 years and this is one of our favourite bars. The wine selection is incredible and the staff are always fantastic. I love the feel of the bar, its cosy but cool if that makes any sense? We finally tried the food in August and were not disappointed. Will be back soon!

My boyfriend and I stumbled across this wonderful place this evening and we are so happy we did. Given post-COVID it was wonderful to see a sweet and cosy place open. Staff was helpful and One of the best Ratatouille I have honestly ever had. Although a reduced menu was wonderful and so reasonably priced. Definitely will go back

We were warmly invited into this little delightful gem of a wine bar. Wines were explained and we felt comfortable enjoying our really excellent choices. We decided to eat and again the menu was explained, I’m a foodie but many parts of the menu were new to me. Food was exciting and divine in texture, taste and freshness. I love the small plate idea almost like a eclectic form of tapas. When the bill came I was amazed at the price (would have paid more). A perfect little bolt hole.

Great place to grab a glass of wine! Absolutely arrogant customer service. I am not sure if it was the owner but definitely a person to avoid. Zero customer service and full of arrogance. Avoid at all cost

As a local resident, I am thrilled to have this gorgeous little place on my doorstep. Every single time I have been in here has been delightful. I love the conversations with the sommelier and though his recommendations, have enjoyed some exquisite wines here. The food is 10/10 too.

this restaurant is closing 4th march. it is a shame for deptford to see restaurants/wine bars of this calibre closing after such a short timr

We were invited to lunch at Winemakers which was our Christmas present from our nephew and his fiancé. Arriving 20 minutes early we sat in the empty restaurant to be told that their wine list was somewhat limited as they had missed their wine delivery earlier in the week and they were out sparkling water, oh! well hey ho I thought. The lunch menu was limited which made easy to choose, I settled for the salted beef & chips which was delicious as was my dessert, buttermilk pudding & Yorkshire rhubarb and in fact the whole meal was very good indeed as was the wine we choose from Friuli.

A restaurant that reveres food - it exists so that you can eat well and we certainly did that. The dishes were all absolutely delicious and arrived as they were ready - I love that anarchic way of eating - you get stuff when it's at its peak. The staff are really lovely and maintained an admirable level of serenity on a crazily bustling Saturday night. We were the last to leave but didn't feel at all hassled - au contraire!

All the food was interesting, a bit quirky and beautifully cooked.Excellent bread..always a good sign. The quality of the produce was very high - the beef carpaccio was the best we've ever tasted,The squid and palourdes clams was unusual, delicious and outstanding value!

My partner and I stumbled across Winemakers online and took a chance on it to go for my birthday last year. We were stunned- the food was amazing, wine even better and the service is the perfect amount of relaxed, friendly and unpretentious. We now come here whenever we want to have a particularly celebratory meal.

friendly welcome (very understanding about our change of number only the day before) and quickly shown to a shared table with two other couples. The crab balls not to be missed - soft in the middle and crunchy outside. Shellfish stew superb and Lincolnshire Poacher souffle smelled so heavenly just had to try it. Too full for puddings so the £2 scoop home made ice cream really appreciated.

Booked over the phone we ended up sharing a table with 2 other couples with no warning. We were not expecting the Wagamama treatment. The ham with pickled fennel was good though the cuttlefish stew had only 5 tiny strips of cuttlefish,,, What is really shoddy comes with the presentation. Uncomfortable bentwood chairs (mine had sellotape), filthy toilet seat and toilet door (reported with no apology or effort to clean), and finally a refusal to accept that the wine needed to be decanted. A pathetic "we don't have the capacity" is unacceptable when you charge a minimum of £30 a bottle. Avoid this arrogant hyped up establishment.

A delicious 3 course Sunday lunch for £25 per head! 3 choices for starter and pudding, 4 choices for main. 2 of our party had the roast beef which is served rare. Both enjoyed the main but although the meat was cooked rare the edge...

Food selection is limited, but it doesnt really matter as the food is good and portion a also good size. Prizes are not to expensive and the staff is friendly and knows the winelist well Would definitely recommend

Three of us spent a lovely evening here. Really nice staff happy to discuss the wines. Excellent food, cooked well. It's not cheap and in a part of town that doesn't have a wide variety of restaurants, Really excellent food, well cooked, and a well...

This restaurant came recommended so went with friends to try. Menu is limited but has some interesting dishes, which come generally without any garnish but all our party really liked what they had which in our case was mainly the small plates with fried potatoes(not...

Really great wine - they know their stuff here. We've only ever eaten the bar food and there's plenty to choose from, all of which is excellent and highly recommend. Also, you'll find some unusual but tasty wine here.

We came for drinks maybe a chance for dinner. Completely disappointed!! Overcrowded, staff not very friendly, babies at 9:30????. They really need to decide who are they catering for.

We visited here one Saturday evening, having not booked a table. After a 10 minute wait, we were seated in what was a bustling, lively lounge that had a bit of an old school pub vs contemporary feel. Tables were big and wooden, and we...

We have no complaints about the food: we all agreed it was good. But the portions were tiny, the prices quite high, the presentation was poor and the service frosty. Our party ordered a variety of starters and some mains. Between a starter and a...

We've tried Winemakers a few times since its opening last March, and it just gets better and better. Now firmly part of the high street with it's super confident kitchen packing home real flavour with up to the minute produce ...this is a venue not...

Incredible neighbourhood restaurant. It has it all: friendly and knowledgable staff; great decor and atmosphere; extensive wine list, and truly unexpected and delicious food with a menu which changes every day. And it's all very reasonable too. My first choice whether for a romantic meal,...

Visited on a Saturday evening; we called the day before and were lucky to get a table at 7pm, since they were booked up later on. On arrival it's in a unassuming down to earth part of Deptford, so you need to watch out for...

Had read good reviews about Winemakers so decided to book a table. Arrived on time, made to wait fir table despite it being available and advised had to share a table, which accepted. 3 couples came in whilst there and they were made to share...

I had a very mixed meal here Saturday night. The vino was great, the starters were good but my main was tasteless and way too oily (probably the worse I've had in a very long time). Half way through the meal the music was turned...

A post on twitter by bitten & written made me keen to try this place. We had initially tried to book a table at Champagne & Fromage in Greenwich but it was full! Remembering the tweet we decided to venture to Deptford. How pleased were...

Thanks winemakers for coming to Depford, it was a very pleasant evening, very Cousy, good wine, very good food and very attentive staff. We will be back and very soon... thanks guys

We went out for dinner and some wine. We didn't have time for the rib of beef to share, but it did look amazing when someone else had had it. So we shared 6 of their starter dishes. It is difficult to choose what was...

Winemakers is wonderful. I go with friends to eat/on my own to taste new wines/with a book to relax - but invariably end up chatting and boozing after a hard day in the kitchen. I work around the corner, and am thrilled that Winemakers is...

I walk down Deptford High Street quite a lot, and one day noticed this place and was intrigued, so we returned a week or so later for dinner. It's not what you would expect for Deptford, but in a good way! This is a brand...
