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.

Very pleasant indeed, tasting was excellent and whilst we did not eat this time, the breakfast and lunch menu was an excellent idea. Took away some Blanc de Blanc

I understand the situation at the moment is difficult but I felt the service was basic, at best, and was a real shame that the staff were not interested or engaging (or even attentive) as we would have ordered more drinks and thought about purchasing bottles. The view was stunning and we had great weather to sit out on the decking. What we did have was really nice. I feel an opportunity to encourage more sales was greatly missed. With so many vineyards in the area I feel that I would rather try another than return, which is a shame.

No ambience at the table at all - felt like a supermarket cafe. Food expensive for what it was. Disappointing visit.

Had been on the wine tour and then had supper. Luckily it was a sunny afternoon and sitting on the verandah overlooking the vinery was lovely. Everywhere was spotlessly clean. Only negative was I thought the menu was a bit limited however the quality of food we had was good
