Vermuteria is a classic, euro neighbourhood bar. We have a big focus on vermouth, sherry, classic cocktails and tasty snacks.

On the food front, you can select from tasty bar snacks like our range of tinned seafood, gildas and jamon serrano or warm snacks like our mortadella sandwich and anchovy & goat’s cheese toast. We also love to support local with cheeses from neighbourhood cheesemonger, Penny’s Cheese Shop and LP’s quality meats feature heavily with their chorizo and hot dogs.

We are regular customers because De Vine offer a great combination of excellent food, wine and service. Our latest visit was really great and we shared a variety of dishes that were all top quality - my personal favourite was the risotto but the scallops came a very close second. We enjoyed a delightful bottle of wine and the table staff and the sommelier were on the ball throughout our evening. You should definitely try this out if you like good food and want to be able to select from a great wine list!
