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.

We love coming to Bolney Wine Estates. Bought my parents for breakfast for my mums birthday yesterday. There was only 1 other table there when we arrived at 10:20. We didn't get our breakfast until 11:15 which was a bit of a wait and then they didn't bring my husbands which unfortunately hadn't been cooked. They remade it quickly but service was a bit slow on this occasion (although there are worse places to hang around). It hasn't put us off as its such a nice place to be and hope it was just a blip.

Your Booking Reminder still stated Deposit Required when I knew I had paid £3 (but received no confirmation of payment) which left me with uncertainty as to booking. We arrived 20 mins early and telephoned from car park only to be told by recorded message that you were closed. It would be helpful to see better signage of ENTRANCE (to the left from car park) which would avoid customers using steps by the balcony on arrival. Other than above, a very pleasant return visit for lunch, following a tasting a few day’s previous when Zoe gave excellent presentation and service. Thank you.

I had the bacon sandwich for breakfast, it was nice but nothing special. I do feel there is a lack of vegetarian options available.

Delighted with our experience. We had the 4 Small plates with accompanying flight of wines. Unfortunately it wasn't possible to buy bottles of any of the wines that we tasted as they weren't on display and staff were too busy to ask
