We had a fantastic evening with our friends. Paying to book is a nit of a rip off but we had a great place in the lounge. The musician/ singer was brilliant. The ambience and general atmosphere was perfect. The place is a bit pricey, but we didn't mind as we had such a good evening

Great fun place to go. We were early at 5pm so it was a bit chilly and we were the only people there for a while. Ordered olives but none were available, just had crisps.

I was unable to change the date of my booking, I sent emails, msgs and tried to call on various occasions however no response. I wanted to move my booking to the next Friday however I was unable to do so! I will not use this booking system again as I lost money unnecessarily. It would be wise to consider this in advance. I don’t even know if the Grapevine is still open, as this would be a strange way to run a thriving business.

This was our first experience in the Grapevine and have to say it was a fantastic evening. Moss the musician, who we know, gave an amazing performance, the entire bar enjoyed his music, the ambiance was excellent. Ella who served us all evening was friendly and professional and provided what felt like a one to one service. To summarise, we both had a fabulous evening, great atmosphere & brilliant music, perfect location, superb staff. We will be back. Thank you

Second visit to the Grapevine, a hidden Gem in the quiet street in Rye. I love the cosy and atmospheric ambience created by the low lighting. The drinks selection is great with beautiful wines on offer and bar was accommodating with off menu cocktails. The staff were really knowledgeable about the food and drink menu and provided an excellent level of service particular thank you to Ella and Sethu our waiters who were very attentive and extremely friendly. I will make absolutely be visiting the Grapevine every time I'm in Rye.
