The Old Vine

What a beautiful place! We loved our visit. We stayed in the two bedroom apartment. It’s perfect set up for a family and is great for exploring beautiful Winchester. The breakfast was delicious and generous. The coffee was top notch. The staff were really helpful. The whole place is beautifully and imaginatively decorated. We will be back!

This is the ideal spot for pre-or-post shopping refreshments. The fish finger sandwich is amazing, the service is good but it can get very busy at the bar, with staff having no clue who's next and asking customers instead of observing, which can be frustrating. However, it's a lovely pub, always clean & clear, immaculate toilets and a friendly vibe. Will be back again next time we're in Winchester!

The staff have been absolutely wonderful. We travelled at short notice from Kent to meet friends coming from Somerset.
They were fully booked for lunch... so offered us a table in the bar then created a table in the restaurant for us. Our friends were 90 minutes late because of crazy traffic and the staff couldn't have been more relaxed and kind. Just wonderful... and the food was good too!

Only had a meal and coffee here. Had lovely Lamb shanks in gravy. Really tasty, piping hot and plenty of it. Located in the city centre there's plenty of hustle and bustle going on outside and was busy inside as well. Staff were pleasant, polite and helpful. There's street tables available as well which, despite the cold, were busy! Well worth a visit 👍👍

Beautiful spot in Winchester, lovely old building, food and drink are excellent and the staff are always very good.

Pricey but you're paying for the location and ambience. Nice place to visit for a treat in summer when sitting outside in good weather or in the restaurant / bar on an evening.

Came for lunch on a cold, rainy day in December. It was super cozy inside the dining area, with a nice fireplace and old wood beams. The food was also delicious and the service prompt and friendly. I would recommend checking this out if you are in Winchester.

Went here for an evening meal while having a weekend in Winchester in late December.
Really good food.
Temperature in the restaurant was cold so sat with my coat on after eating .
Staff unable to turn heating up told it was on a timer.

Would have been excellent if it wasn't as cold (I was in a long sleeve shirt and trousers).

Would go again as the food was so good.

Well where to start. Such a hidden gem. Came in at the right time as they was just finishing food. We was lucky enough to be able to order at last minute. Food was absolutely fantastic you can taste the love in the food. Staff are very pleasant and helpful. Couldn't recommend any more if I tried.
