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.

Our waitress Gabby was delightful but she was overworked due to lack of staff. We had a few issues which were disappointing and I noticed a Manager of some sort having a meeting in the middle of the restaurant with a member of staff!! My friends decided not to leave a tip on this visit .... I felt bad about this as Gabby was doing her best . Next time fingers crossed.

Most of the food was delicious but the vegans felt that the vegan platter was a little small and needed to be livened up. In conversation they said some olives would have lifted it and more than two falafels ie more than one each.

we very much enjoyed our lunch, a couple of points our dish did not contain flatbreads they were bread rolls , we were not told of this change which was ok but would have nice to be explained as to why? also the mezee plater had coleslaw missing perhaps communication between kitchen and serving staff could be passed on to the customers, however we did enjoy our time at Bolney Dawn Myles

We had a lovely lunch - thank you . Might be worth considering a change of small tables - I was worried my delicious glass of Bolney Bubbly was going to slip over on a few occasions
