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!

Very pleasant surroundings and charming staff. Good food selection ( not too much for older palates) Mind you it has always been a family favourite for many years and keeps up to standard

Great food, excellent service. We are an older couple with small appetites, we asked if we could share a starter and a main and it was no trouble. Thank you.
