The Vine
Latest Reviews
Stayed at a hotel near by for 2 nights. First night with friends next night as a couple. The 4 of us went to the Vine on Saturday night after reading good reviews. Donot be put off by the outside appearance. The place was bouncing as a home football match had been played. We found a table and 10 minutes after we ordered our food arrived and it was excellent. We all had starters which we shared and all had a different curry dish. It was all really tasty, fresh and hot. It was so good we went as a couple the next night and had the bbq. Beautiful we chose 3 different dishes and shared them. Will deffinately return next time we travel in that area.

Food is beautiful. Have been there a few times with friends, family and partner. I must say that food and drinks are a bit pricey. There git quite a few areas inside where you can sit eat and drink. Can get extremely crowded at times especially when the football is on.

It's a known fact......I love Curry, so do my in laws; and it was because of them today that we found the Vine in West Bromwich. Normally you go to an Indian Restaurant, order a ton of Lager, poppadoms and you sit down at a table with a crisp white table cloth waiting for your waiter.
How totally different this place is......
You get outside and you look at the front and you think to yourself "What a dump" but when you get inside it's like walking into the Tardis! It's all fresh and new and loads more room as you keep walking. It has more of a pub type atmosphere and you order your food from the bar and someone brings it to you. We ordered and our food was ready and out in about 5 minutes which was pretty good.
I'm a creature of comfort when I go for an Indian as I've learnt the hard way on many an occasion so I tend to stick to the same things
- Chicken Tikka Masala
- Mushroom Rice
- Keema Naan
This I ordered and I must say it was one of the cleanest looking things I've had, this I mean in the sense they've not used a whole ton of colouring in the food and it tastes really fresh. We had that and shared a starter of Chicken Tikka pieces off of the grill which was really fresh and proper tasting.
My Wife had a Chicken Keema Curry and Masala Chips which is an odd combo but tasted extremely good and together with drinks cost no more than £20!
Had no room for dessert but had a great time, look forward to going back again :)

Go for the food not comfort or ambience, waiting for a table is a pain however that is because this place is popular and always busy. Good prices, excellent food and good service

Good food and nice atmosphere. Very reasonable priced. Eight of us had drinks and food and the bill came around 140.

I was staying in a local hotel and fancied getting out for the evening. I looked on Apple Nearby and found this place. Was it a curry house was it a pub? Sid it give it a go I thought.
Bingo!!! It's everything real ale pub, curry house and indoor BBQ. Food is excellent I went for the special Goat Curry. Fantastic on the bone sweet succulent and spicy.
Great mix of people in gave it a great atmosphere as well. It's not just a pub, it's not a restaurant it's a bit of everything. Thank you Apple Nearby!!! Thank you The Vine!!!!!

The Vine is an amazing place. From the outside it looks like your typical real ale boozer but as soon as you step inside and get a waft of the food you know you've found somewhere a bit special. Head towards the back of the pub and you'll find an extension this houses a load of tables, a selection of menu boards (so much choice!) and the BBQ area where they do a selection of tandoori snacks - including massala fish and smoked trout.
It's hard to know where to start with the curries - you can create your own or opt for one of the chef's specials. There's also an extensive selection of veggie courses and a good choice of extras.
The only real complaint I have is the fact that I felt so stuffed afterwards it was quite a struggle to finish my beer.It's cheaply priced and the staff are nice, cant wait to try again.

We booked a table for four between Christmas and New Year, to include two wheelchair users, and the owners could not have been more helpful in ensuring that the visit went really smoothly. First of all, the staff are extremely helpful, recommending the specials. We opted for chicken biryani, curried lamb shank and the chicken curry prepared in a ceramic pot, all very authentic and delicious - the owners themselves are British-Indian. We had not been prepared for the size of the pub, which was frequented by a great mix of people and many families with young children. There was a pleasant family atmosphere, but small rooms off the main pub - you can eat anywhere you like, apparently - ensure that you can have privacy if you want. Toilets seem brand-new and are spotless.
Full marks for the food, and also for the flexibility of the staff for helping two wheelchair users into the pub without fuss. We'll be back!

Bournemouth played West Brom so we arranged to meet in the Vine for a pre-match drink. From the outside it looks tiny but it is huge inside. They have a good range of drinks, hand pulled beer which suited us. The best thing is the food. They have an amazing Indian menu with a BBQ and do homemade naan breads and it is superb! Plus a friendly atmosphere for a pre-match drink.

6 of us called in for a curry tonight, excellent as always, lamb madras with mushroom rice was superb, mushroom and spring onion in the rice is gorgeous.We call in a few times a year and usually have bbq but just fancied a curry tonight, bbq is probably the best around and very nice restaurant now Suki has renovated.
Busy on WBA match days but to be fair it's nearly always busy, parking on surrounding streets, give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

Met some friends, decided to go for curry. Excellent value and was delicious. We particularly liked the positive attitude toward wheelchairs.
Will definitely go again

Following recent closure of Morrisons restaurant we found Vine website & visited with wife at 12.45 on West Brom match day. We were seeking a sit down meal. But found The Vine does not take bookings. Rather it is first come first served. Place looks small from outside but is cavernous inside. After entry up steps passed side rooms with all seats taken. Went through to first bar at end of long room full of people including Bournemouth supporters. Again no seats. On through into larger room again bursting at seams with no available seats. Finally went through doors to partial outside area with most tables taken.
We bought a drink & sampled some BBQ food standing up. Left very disappointed.

TBH used to visit regular but nowadays seems that the prices for tikka are on the up. Never been into there currys as they tend to be a bit on the greasy side. Still it's a clean place tho I suppose!

Another good night out in the Vine, good food and drinks all you need from a pub these days. Went on a Sunday evening so wasn't too full and got a table easily.

I can't praise the vine enough I've been coming here since I was a little kid with my dad and the food has never changed. The food is amazing, and the mixed grill is the best I've ever tried! Great prices and nice atmosphere, perfect get together for friends!

I remember coming here when I was a little boy with my old man.
The food and service is outstanding.
The portions are big and tasty.
This was one of the first Indian BBQ grill places that I remember and I have to say its still the best in my eye.
Family run and owned. A lot of staff I remember from my younger days.
Always happy to see you - Food is VERY tasty and the prices are reasonable!
Very safe to bring you Family/Mrs - unlike some of the other places that offer the same menu. Never had any issues here.
Would highly recommended this places! It has to be one of my best places to come and eat/drink and socialise.
Gets busy on matches days! Great atmosphere - mixture of Albion and away fans - never any trouble - door security staff very friendly!
Keep up the good works!

The staff were friendly and helpful. Plenty of choice even for a vegetarian like myself. I absolutely love their chilli paneer. I do find it quite expensive but the portions are big and you can get take away cartons to take home any leftovers.
The only downside is there's no children's menu so they either have to have an adult size meal or share with the adults.

You wouldn't believe by looking at this Pub from the outside, but it but the portions were really big, and the quality of the food was excellent

Got to be one of the best curry pubs in the Midlands don't go through when West Bromwich ALbion are at home,as it will be packed before kick off

A pub that serves really good curry or is it a curry house with a pub attached.? Either way it is always full which speaks for the quality and value for money.

Super experience - be mindful that it's packed out when the Baggies are at home (no restriction on away fans).
All year round BBQ for a quick tasty VFM snack on the go!Or browse the focussed menu and choose any one of the specialities.
If you go weekday lunch then you will get a table easy enough and service is always quite quick (or slow if you want it slow!)The fact that there is always an almost full house (with about 80 covers in the main bar area plus another 80+ covers out back by the BBQ so just knowing that they need to cater for over 150 covers tells you that they do a special job.....not just special 'cos they do it with a smile and an incredible efficiency - TOP DRAWER.
Of course this is a Curry House for people with a drink problem so don't expect Rajdoots.Sometimes can be difficult to get a parking spot. but persevere it's worth it.
Poky place outside - go in and see the Tardis!Staff helpful and Happy to help.
