The Vine
Latest Reviews
We have been going to the Vine for more than 10 years, and there is just no place like it. We went again last night for the first time since it had it's major refurbishment (which means that the old cafe-style tables are gone, and it is a lot more comfy !). The indoor Indian BBQ is unique, and the food is fantastic, especially the chicken tikka, methi chicken, shish kebabs, half-chicken peri-peri style, and the dustbin-lid sized naan breads. The chicken is always beautifully tender.
It is all great value too, with all dishes costing less than £4.00. All of the food is pretty spicy though, so you need to be a spice lover ! The Vine also does great regular curries too, but we usually stick with the BBQ.
The only slightly negative point I would make has been touched on by other reviewers, and that is that the BBQ section could really do with a ticketed ordering system.
Overall the Vine is a really great place to eat, and you probably won't have eaten anywhere else like it before. Beautiful food, great value, and friendly staff make it a real treat.

I have been coming here since the late 80s/early 90s.
Methi chicken - the best. You cannot go wrong. I come from Solihull especially to eat and get a takeaway.
Naan selection excellent. Not fine dining, but you cannot go wrong with good, simple Indian BBQ. Tend not to have the red coloured tikkas, kebabs etc. Methi Chicken - better than Nandoes. Don't forget to get the brown chutney and fresh green
chillies!
Only down side - I had one slightly bad experience when the owner was on holiday, where I was served burnt bread. But a little telling off to the staff and the bar and haven't had a problem since.
Keep it going Mr Sukhi!

What a fantastic place.
It's not posh but value for money it's a 11/10 two half chickens and a nan for less than £9.00, a bargain.
Tasty great value food doesn't get better than this!!

Best match day destination going if you fancy some lively chat and a few drinks before and after. The food is also great, but would recommend going on any other day than match day to try it as it gets quite busy.

Old 20th c pub which is run by an enterprising Brit Indian family of Punjabi origin serves great sumptous and juicy well-flavoured kebabs. Curry & gravy items could be better. The flat breads are good though some room for improvement exists. Good pub atmosphere.

I have lived next to this establishment for years, and I have never visited. I did hear many good reviews, but never got time.
My husband and I decided to go in November 2011, and we were pleasantly surprised. The décor appeared different to any other restaurant, it was set in a traditional pub. It had many separate areas to eat. Some of the rooms were very cosy, and the staff were very friendly. The BBQ room is out of place, and not in context to the rest of the pub, with plastic chairs and tables.
Now the food. You have so many options, from BBQ food, tandoori, curry's or even English dishes. The BBQ food is cooked on a traditional Indian BBQ ( Indoor thou I must add ), It has lovely coating on it, and is cooked perfectly. None of the meat is tough, and is perfect with a naan or tandoori roti. As its set in a pub, you get all the usual beers and shorts to accompany.
