Our Eighteen Acre Café has a stunning viewing balcony overlooking the ripening vines. It’s a great place for a spot of lunch or catching up with friends over a glass of award-winning wine. All our food is locally sourced and our chef serves up scrumptious dishes for brunch and lunch.  We've created a tasty menu you'll love; from warming winter dishes perfectly paired with our wines, to daily specials carefully created by our chefs with the freshest seasonal ingredients. 

We are now taking table bookings from 19th May onwards. Unil then, we are operating a walk-in service only. Our cafe is open on Wednesday to Sunday from 9am – 4pm (food service stops at 3.30pm on Weds - Sat, and 3pm on Sun). On Monday and Tuesday we are open for take-away tea and coffee only.

Please note: All guests, including café and tour guests (with the exception of minors under the age of 11 and people with medical conditions that preclude them from wearing face coverings) are kindly asked to bring and wear face coverings when travelling through our shop area. We also ask that all visitors to Bolney follow government guidelines regarding COVID 19.

I have been to your lovely restaurant several times, and as usual always a pleasure.Excellent sturdy parasols too!! but thewind still managed to take out my glass of blanc de blancs!!The best bubbly. Will you open for dinner, or keep to lunch and cocktails Fridays? Looking forward to autumnal menu too. Thanks again.

The service was below expectations but we overheard an explanation to another table that you were extremely short-staffed on this particular day.

We had vegetarian breakfast. All was delicious apart from the hard, dried out falafel. We were hustled to leave immediately after finishing, having booked our table online and only been there one hour. Otherwise lovely.

Food and wine outstanding. Location and views always beautiful and even better as we had sunshine. Service was a bit sporadic… everyone was very lovely, polite and friendly… it was just slow at times and we had quite a long wait in between drinks orders… You’d have probably made even more profit out of us if it had been faster service on drinks :) Even so we had a wonderful time and will definitely be back :)
