The interior décor is warm and elegant with a harmonious mix of 19th century chairs, classic Parisian tables, a contemporary cellar and leather banquettes. Outside on the terrace or under the pergola, tables in the dappled shade, a bubbling fountain and plants invite long, lazy afternoons enjoying the picturesque views across the gardens vineyards and Simonsberg mountain.

    The Kurktrek Wine Club (15 members) visit to The Vine Bistro was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The beautifully prepared menu showcased the talent of Head Chef Henry du Plessis and his team. Every dish presented was executed to perfection. The service by Kaitlyn and her team was equally impressive. Combined with Glenelly's exceptional wines, the evening was a truly memorable dining experience. Highly recommended

    We celebrated my birthday and enjoyed the Autumn set Menu with 3 choices for starters, mains and dessert plus complimentary red and white wine. One of our party is lactose intolerant and she was offered alternatives where applicable. We were very impressed with the attention to detail and special birthday treat for the table. Thank you, it was was wonderful experience. We will be back 💚 Did I mention the food was absolutely delicious?!
