About this restaurant

Charming
Good for special occasions
Good for groups

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 disappointing Sunday lunch today… Basic would’ve liked roast parsnip, pigs in blankets?, Stuffing? It was all a bit planned and the gravy was very watery.
