Reviews in Birmingham, West Midlands

Had a lovely meal here yesterday. We didn't know The Vine, but it was a good location for people meeting up from north and south, so we relied on reviews and were delighted with our choice. The food - from an extensive and varied menu, even for the lunchtime deal - was exquisitely cooked and presented, and the service was friendly and efficient. We all thoroughly enjoyed the actual meal, and really appreciated your patience and thoughtfulness making it a relaxed get-together. We hope to come back!

Amazing food, I had the guinea fowl from the specials menu and my wife had the beef from the Sunday roast menu. There was nothing left on the plate, the food is delicious. Excellent choice of drinks and brilliant service too, the staff are very attentive and accommodating. A little gem in the heart of the Clent Hills, this place is a must!

Friendly staff, good food and reasonably priced. We shall come again

Good quality food in a classic country club location I had roast beef which was well cooked and served good array of vegetables . The cheesy leeks were particularly tasty.

We enjoyed our evening meal last Friday. As usual the food was excellent , with just enough attention from the friendly staff to ensure everything ran smoothly. Unlike many other restaurants we could hear what we were saying to each other, there is a nice atmosphere here.

Booked here for sons girlfriend birthday she loves a Sunday roast we booked for 6pm got there early sat down to order we all ordered Sunday roast just as the waitress was about to take our order in they turned board over said no more roasts we were very disappointed we no we booked late but it’s Sunday the day of the roast maybe kitchen need to keep the waitresses up to date with stock and say when they have so many left so can inform guests when they sit down if you have tables booked on a Sunday surely you should make sure there is roasts left or inform when booking there may not be any left as it’s late we ordered of the menu my husband and son had rib eye steak medium and medium rare son had to send his back as it was so over cooked and for the amount of money the steaks cost they were very thin no wonder they were over cooked kitchen re cooked a steak for my son and it came back a lot thicker and cooked right I had steak stout Stilton pie which was very salty and I normally love this,so all in all very disappointed with our visit and the evening cost us over £150 also seamed to be a bit of atmosphere with staff faces being pulled so not sure what was going on maybe just a stressful day my husband asked for the bill and a drink it never came he had to go to the bar and then go ask for the bill we normally love this place it’s our go to

Went for lunch on Saturday for my partners birthday the food was delicious s Lots of choice and good portions staff were lovely. Sat in the garden afterwards as well which was lovely.

Sunday lunch is always beautiful

Returned the Vine after a long absence and we were delighted to find that the quality of the food is as good as ever. The staff were also very helpful. No problems here.

Great service and all staff were lovely and friendly. Plenty of choice and lots of specials. Food was excellent and so tasty. Highly recommend.

Good

Have been coming to your VA venue since before it got changed from a pub to a restaurant and in all of that time the fab welcome had just never changed what so ever plus the fab food specially for special occasions

Our first time at the Red Lion. Food was well cooked and served hot. Service was good, we did not have to wait long for drinks or food and the waitresses were very aware I had an allergy and checked to make sure everything was safe. A very good lunch all round.

A very nice lunch, and good value, but service was so very, very slow - we were there nearly 2 hours for a 2 course lunch, and no apology given for the long wait. Also, very annoying and unpleasant loud music, making chatting with our friends very difficult.

Absolutely fantastic night the staff were amazing couldn’t do enough for us the variety of food was plentiful there was something for everyone and the drinks 2 for 1 added to the night there were 6 of us and we all said we would return

Ok meal but nothing exciting or interesting. Mains lacked a variety of sides, rice or chips being the main offering. Starters selection ok. We liked the potatoes everything else was just ok. The most interesting part was the drinks menu. There was an extensive list of non alcoholic option including wine. We selected a bottle to be told they didn’t have it - in fact the only had one bottle of sparkling wine. So we left that. I asked for a lemonade. No that wasn’t available A coke? not available So I asked what was available - one variety of cola we had never heard of which was heavily advertised in the restaurant. We settled on tap water. Very unlikely to return.

booked a week in advance but seemed a bit of an issue were our table was when we arrived, did not have the full trio of meats as advertised on menu but still charged at same price. The deserts was taking ages to be brought out, and was only brought out when i asked them to cancel them and do my bill after waiting over 40 minutes, I use this place quite often and this is the 1st time i think their standards have slipped and hope it is just a 1 off.

Great food. Fabulous service. Didn't have to wait long for drinks or food. Meals were lovely. Highly recommend
