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.

Lovely day and the tour and tasting was great. We stayed after for a meal on the terrace which was good but would be great to have a few more options. There was one FOH lady who was quite abrupt but the rest of the team were fab

We booked a sparkling afternoon tea and tour for two, a gift from our daughter. However we were disappointed that we were told to arrive at 12pm on an email but when we arrived, told we had missed the tour at 10am. We then proceeded to afternoon tea which consisted of a glass of sparkling wine, a small slate board for two with 4 x plain scones/jam and cream, 2 small slivers of Brownie, 2 x macaroons and 2 tiny squares of cheesecake? on a cocktail stick. There were no pastries/sandwiches etc even though I had been asked if I was a vegetarian beforehand! We then ordered a cheeseboard between us and paid for that along with tea/coffee! Very very disappointed and would not recommend to anyone. I’ve never had an afternoon tea without sandwiches or Tea as part of the package! More disappointing in that when I booked I was told everybody had been upgraded to a deluxe and ours certainly hadn’t been. A complete waste of our daughters money and had it not been for the lovely staff we would have left. We have visited Bolney prior to Covid and had lunch whichwas lovely but we didn’t get an apology apart from Jamie who apologised as we came in and said we weren’t the first not to have been told about the wine tour and proceeded to speak to us about wines and give us an insight. So a lot of money for a glass of bubbly and small dessert board.
