At the Vine Bistro, we serve flavour-packed bistro classics with a modern twist, and distinctive, award-winning wines from Glenelly Estate. The interior décor is warm and elegant and includes a harmonious mix of 19th century chairs, classic Parisian tables, a contemporary cellar and leather banquettes. Outside on the terrace or under the pergola, long wooden tables, a water feature and plants invite long lazy afternoons enjoying the picturesque views across the gardens vineyards and the Simonsberg foothills. A warm and heartfelt welcome, friendly and attentive service and a sublime dining experience awaits.

    What a lovely spot in Stellies! Great food, attentive service, beautiful setting. Before lunch we also popped into the Glass Museum which was quite cool.

    It was a pleasure having lunch with friends at your restaurant. Beautiful view and setting. Exceptional food, a great bouillabaisse, like eating it in France. Great service on top by a friendly staff
