Locally Sourced
At the Hambledon Vineyard Restaurant, seasonal cooking is at the heart of everything we do. Our menus evolve throughout the year, inspired by the rich local larder of Hampshire, the South Downs and the produce foraged on our doorstep and kitchen garden. We are lucky enough to be surrounded by some of the UK’s best producers in the heart of the South Downs.
From vibrant, fresh plates to creative takes on British classics, every dish is crafted with care and precision by our talented chef team.

★★★★★My wife and I dined
here for the first time yesterday. The service was excellent and the person who greeted us had already guessed our names from the reservation made. A small touch that made us feel welcome and valued. There was a relaxed but attentive attitude from the waiting staff which meant that we were never rushed, but there was always somebody to hand when required. Overall, it was difficult to
fault the service in any respect. Allergies / food intolerances were carefully noted and carried through to the chef - even appearing on our final bill. The food was superb and the combination of flavours outstanding. We will certainly
be returning with family and friends.Ian

★★★★★This restaurant in such a stunning vineyard setting with stunning views is really very special and we are so fortunate to have it nearby. Our lunch on Wednesday was another superb experience, the different flavours and combinations within each dish an absolute delight and everything so beautifully presented. A lovely place to visit at any time of year with exceptional service.

★★★★★This was my fourth visit and my guest's first. I have nothing but praise for this venue. The food is fantastic - as good as you will find anywhere. The staff are hugely friendly and efficient and the venue itself, well drop dead gorgeous. I can't recommend it highly enough!

★★★★★We had a lovely time at the Hambledon Wine Estate. Without exception, the staff were very friendly and helpful, attentive while allowing privacy. The food was delicious as were the various wines we had with lunch. A good experience all round in a very relaxed atmosphere. Thank you.

★★★★★Visited yesterday for the first time. Couldn’t fault it. Beautiful setting over looking the garden and vineyard. Each table had seasonal flowers on, elegant logoed glasses. A choice of three menus, set lunch menu, a la carte and the harvest tasting menu. We all had the set menu and everything was so beautifully presented. Flavours excellent, a strong bias towards seasonal flavours including a bramble cocktail. Highly recommend

★★★★★This was our first time at the restaurant at Hambledon Wine Estate and they did not disappoint. Firstly staff were attentive and friendly particularly our waitress
who not only gave us details of the menu also told us a bit more about the
background of the grand opening and the amazing chefs who we considered to be first class in flavour and presentation. Such a treat and we will definitely be back hopefully quite soon.Tricia T
