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. As a result, only parties from the same household are permitted to book a single table in our café. Please note, all members of the party are required by law to register their own track and trace details.

Please note that you will have 2 hours for your table booking.

Both ladies serving in the cafe/restaurant were very helpful and pleasant, as was our tour guide. We felt we could have been given tea included as part of our afternoon tea! We also felt there was a very small amount of cheese on the the cheese and meat board.

We were told that it's not possible to book a table on the terrace. When we got there, we were told that there is a table outside, but it's already reserved for someone. So the restaurant does reserve tables outside. We were given a less comfortable bench table. At the reserved table there were two people sitting, even though it was a table large enough for 6. We had to wait about 15 minutes until someone gave us the menus. The food was okay, but very limited menu. Would be good to have a good variety and more substantial dishes. Service should be more attentive. Whilst a member of staff came to ask twice if everything was okay, at the end I had to take my payment inside, as nobody came to our table. Overall it was a nice ambience, due to the lovely location. But I think service should be more attentive and personable, menu should be more varied.
