Situated in the heart of Stratford-upon-Avon, The Vintner is a natural meeting place, be it for a coffee or something a little stronger in the café / bar, a meal in our restaurant or when getting together more formally in our Private Dining Room.

We have a diverse and thoughtful menu, locally-sourced and seasonally adjusted, as well as a comprehensive range of fine wines and beers from all over the world.

'The Vintner' derives its name from the year 1600, when John Smith traded, along with his wife, as a wine merchant (vintner) in this building. It is more than likely that William Shakespeare purchased his wine from here!

    Fantastic breakfast. Food was all perfect and delicious, service was excellent - always there without being intrusive, venue is lovely especially at this time of the year. It felt very cosy, warm and festive. We will be back.

    The food was ok slightly over priced for what we had, the table was in an awful position they are trying to pack too many tables in the room. Service was ok When we left we said thank you and the person who I guess was the manager basically ignored us and continued talking to a staff member we found him quite rude , we won’t return

    A wonderfully ancient eating house with atmosphere and character. Staff are very amenable and friendly. I ordered plaice, which was excellent, but I noticed the price had risen a lot since I was last here. The pre-theatre menu (up to 6.30pm) is however good value and worth coming earlier for.
