The Vine
Latest Reviews
This was my first visit to The Vine. Initially unimpressed by the absolute lack of parking and after a few trips round the neighbourhood, I finally left my car on the pavement...
The building didn't look impressive but the warm welcome I received from both staff and other punters was warming and for the meeting i was attending, we were seated in the Barbecue Room. This is an Indian Grill.Our drinks and food were ordered at the bar. Friendly and helpful lady served me and gave me a receipt when I had paid. I ordered Chicken Tikka with salad and a cold soft drink, all for £5.50! Who would believe that! They also serve sheesh kebab, wings, ribs, etc The large portion of food arrived at the table quickly. Hot and extremely edible....it was delicious. Everyone at our table ate their fill and all were more than happy with their food.
The food was sooooo tasty and I will certainly return there. Thanks for a great introduction to your pub!

I shared a few of dishes off the bbq grill with my partner. I thought the dish were lovely. The thought the bqq chicken tikka and Sheesh kebab were very spicy (i like spice) so i think it might be best not order if you dont like spice. The spicy pork was a little bit dry but still tasty. The Tipilla fish was excellent cooked perfect. We also shared a keema nan & Jalfrezi curry sauce which tasted nice.
I frlt that the use of polystyrene plates and canteen trays a little off putting and made the overall feel of the establishment a little cheap which is ashame because the food is good and the staff are nice.

If you haven't visited the Vine yet, you are missing out on the best food in the area.
Looks are deceiving. From the outside, it looks like a typical old fashion pub. But when you walk past the bar area and the glass ceiling opens up the pub, then through to the barbeque area with it large open space, picnic table and over head cover. We travel 30 miles round trip because the food is so good. Lots to choose from, very good price and the atmosphere is very pleasant. Friendly staff.

After being to many pub style Indians thought would be the same old low quality curry with good starters however this has changed my opinion
All of the food was perfect was better than my usual Indian restaurant could not fault the place
Good value for money with excellent food

Amazing! The food is top notch and at great prices.. The choice is endless and I have been here many times whenever I am in the area.

After reading the reviews on Trip Advisor I was very much looking forward to visiting this pub/restaurant. Pre match eating is not normally on the agenda for football games but this place had been highly recommended. We arrived at 12noon and placed our orders for drinks and food, and found it fairly easy enough to get a table although the reputation obviously is huge as the place was already filling up to capacity. The service was outstanding, very quick from serving both drinks at the bar and food to the table. The food was excellent and very fresh, you can watch the chefs cooking all the meats on the huge and impressive grilles. We will be back to this place again next season as this place has to be my favourite away day place ever!

This place looks nothing from the outside. Looks can be deceiving! Once inside, it's a rabbit warren of rooms all set up for plenty of visitors to pop in and sample their fantastic Indian cuisine!
The menu is reasonably priced, and extensive. There is so much choice and the food quality is absolute perfection.
If you order from the grill, so chicken tikka, tilapia fish etc, you order those items from the grill directly. All other items and drinks you order from the bar. That was my only criticism. Depending on the queue in each place your food might not all come together. But once we had ordered and say to wait I was over it.
When the food arrived it was plentiful and so fresh and tasty. Just fantastic! We ordered far too much so we could try a few different things and nothing disappointed.
Highly recommended if you like good fresh value for money Indian food.

Ok, this place,from the outside you'd probably walk on by and not go in.
And from the inside looks like a pub, with a working mans club room attached to it.But this isnt about the surroundings, its about seriously great tasting food, at cost effective prices.
Try the chicken tika from the grill, 6 huge pieces for £4.50, quite spicy so dont forget to order the yogurt dip separately. For mains I had lamb clay pot curry and a persiawa nan, which tasted yummy, but unfortunately after the huge starter I was stuffed and could only eat 1/2, so please I did not order rice. All this put 2 rounds of drinks, came to 42.00
Excellent value for money, only wish it was closer to home, so the visit could be a regular habit !

Regularly take colleagues and clients here for a quick lunch. The food is served super quick and is always of very good quality. It opens at 12 and closes at 2pm. During the warmer days they'll sometime bbq out the back.

We visited here on a Saturday lunch time just after opening. Parking was a bit of a nitemare but we managed to find somewhere. We were quite surprised at just how big The Vine is. First impressions were really good as everywhere was spotlessly clean and we were welcomed by the staff as we walked in who explained where to order the food and how wit works. We ordered from the BBQ in the back room, Chicken Tikka, Shish Kebab, Keema Naan and Masala Chips. The food was delicious and more than enough to leave the two of us stuffed! The Masala Chips are a must! We will call again soon.

The area doesn't look great, but the people we asked to help us with directions were more than obliging! Once you've entered, the place opens up to Tardis proportions. The menus look a bit like a chain pub but the curries are more than authentic. The grill is also really tasty, and the staff very friendly. All in all it looks a bit dodge but it is well worth going in ;-)

This fabulous place is hidden in a little street in West Brom and to be totally honest we almost didnt go in. There is no car park and the street was packed with vehicles, however undeterred we managed to find a spot. The exterior of the Vine is a proper old Black Country pub, in fact as you walk in the rooms on the left and right are reminiscent of the "snug" that my granddad used to sit in , in his local. The interior is really deceiving because there is lots and lots of space to eat, both inside and out. The dining area is nothing flash, simple wooden tables and chairs but immaculately clean everywhere. As we hadnt visited before the young guy behind the bar talked us through , and along with all the other staff we encountered was charming and helpful.
The portion sizes were huge , 4 beautifully made onion bhajis as a starter almost finished me off. The rest of our food was wonderful, tasty, hot, the naan bread was to die for. We enjoyed a feast for a really reasonable price, loved it !

This restaurant / pub came highly recommended by works colleagues, but I got a bit of a shock when i got the the place as first impressions aren't favorable. the area isn't particularly nice and the front looks a bit shabby. Don't let that put you off!
At the bar you can order drinks and all but the grill menu as this needs to be ordered AND paid for over by the grill. Some food is coming out on paper plates and the decoration for the dining area aren't all to modern. Don't let that put you off!
Whilst waiting for my order to arrive I tried to discover 'the concept', but when the food arrives all these thoughts just disappear. Very decent food, good portions and all served as you would expect. The place is buzzing and customers are serve quickly by friendly and efficient staff.
Good selection on the menu, tasty, non-pretentious food and decently priced. Don't think about it too much or for too long, just find this place, go in and enjoy!

Food has always been amazing here, very tasty and somewhat healthy if choosing from the grill. Pub is a little one so a bit cramped until you go to the rear extension. Definitely worth a visit.

Haven't been here for years but remembered it was good so called in for an early evening meal. Ordered chicken tikka and a naan (from the grill), a biryani (which came with a dhal) and a another curry.
Far too much food for the two of us but it was all delicious. Hard to see how chicken tikka could get any better.
Really great place if you like curry and beer.

The decor of The Vine leaves a lot to be desired. The room with the glass roof is nice and light, but the rest of the pub is pretty bland. The garden would benefit from a makeover or even just a few plants to make the most of what could be a lovely outdoor space. We still sat outside and enjoyed the sun and tried not to look at the school dining room style seating.
I ordered my food and...... Wow, forget about the decor. This is one of the best curries I've ever tasted! I had one of the clay pots and I don't think I've ever finished a whole curry before, but this was too good to leave. Tasty, fresh, full of flavour. My plain naan was light and crispy, not at all stodgy as they often are. I finished that too. I will definitely be returning.It's worth mentioning too that I was in a group of about 40 people and we were all served very swiftly by friendly bar and waiting staff.

Been going since I was taken when I was little, a pub mixed with the most amazing Indian food. We regularly go, taking friends with us who are amazed every time. Food arrives fast, and the indoor grill tastes amazing. Definitely worth a visit!

The restaurant is a converted pub in an unassuming location that I would never have found without TA. Once inside the staff explained how the ordering and grill worked, I ordered my food which arrived swiftly, piping hot and full of flavour, really difficult to fault it.

Good delicious food, good atmosphere and good services. the grill option is fantastic, be sure to try the grilled tilapia fish and masala chips, fab choice.

Visited this place on the reviews. To say I was disappointed was an understatement. Had the special garlic chicken came out with in ten minutes and was red hot which is always a plus but as for the taste was rather bland. Looked for a grill but it was buy tikka pieces for 4.50 and get a smerk from the chef for four pieces. A mixed grill to me is served on a skillet not a paper place. Other then the food staff was friendly and nice clean place.

Ok visited about a month ago and was pleasantly supprised with the tardis effect and layout of pub, I've had LOTS of grills and Indian BBQ over the years so I know what I like, I was a bit dissapointed that they didn't do a full mixed grill and you had to order it all separately, however we ordered from the moody guy who was in charge of the grill food and promptly got what we ordered, the food was very good and most enjoyable even if a little dryer than I like but quality was excellent.
BUT! Served on paper plates? Really. You want to portray and image of quality? So what's that all about ?Sort it out, will still visit again as it's a nice place and very good in the bbq sector

Very busy anytime of day and very highly recommended people come from everywhere to try the food here and meet Suki (the owner) the staff are exceptional

Not much to say if im I westbrom and want a curry I'll be here. Curries are spot on and the indoor bbq is immense love having the fresh chicken tikka off there. They have a sort of card tab which is cool just dont let it run up as it is pricey food and beer wise. Never the less proper authentic indian cuisine in an authentic english pub.
