I was really looking forward to having a curry in the vine before watching my team play at West Brom, having done the same two season ago. Sat down with some Baggies fans who had eaten and checked what the procedure was which was order at the bar and food brought to you. When I got to the bar I was told the only food that was being served was the barbecue due to difficulty getting food to tables on a matchday: as a non meat eater I ended up with chips and naan bread for my lunch. Nothing wrong with what we got (nice bread average chips and no ketchup in sight) but had really been looking forward to a proper curry like last time.
I later checked on the pub website to see if there was a mention of the menu not being served on matchday but could find no reference to this and on the way out at just gone 2 p.m noticed a plate that looked like non barbecue food had been served (I could have been wrong). I suggest the pub makes their policy on matchday menu clearer on the website, especially as there is an FAQ section that I had specifically checked the day before.
On the plus side atmosphere in the pub itself was good and home fans friendly, mixing well with visitors and it didn't take very long to get served for food or drink.

Great variety of food, choice of BBQ food or numerous choices of main Indian dishes,
Service is very good and even at the busiest times the wait for food is not long at all.
Plenty of seating available.

I've been going the Vine since 2011 and the indoor curry barbecue is out of this world. Better than anything you could ever get from Brick Lane and at affordable prices.

Buzzing before match day<br>Indian bbq takes your Breath away.

Third time here after baggies football game and always very good. Strongly disagree with comments regarding price _ almost half what is common in most restaurants (max £10 per head) and very tasty and fresh. Friendly with a wide range of locals and visitors - definite place to visit before or after a west brom game and free parking nearby....

Excellent food, very tasty and appealing. That's just the curry, going back to sample the grill menu next time.

The outside does not do justice to what you get once inside.
The food was amazing had the lunch platter food was delicious and service very good.
Would definitely recommend a lunch time visit and I will return with family/friends.

We have been coming here for a while now and it never ever disappoints
Food ordering is simple You go to the grill you order what you want off barbie and go back 10 mins later to collect
The chicken tikka is amazing Last night for my main I tried the chilli honey chicken stir fry
The chicken was tender and melted in the mouth My only criticism would be too many onions for my liking
The wife had pork steak her personal favourite and chicken saag for main Also a bullet Nan to help it along
Staff are super friendly and always make us feel welcomeWill defo be going back

Went to the vine after a while on a Sunday...I had a very nice relaxed drink(s) and meal in the side room "lounge". Chicken tikka masala with naan, sheekh kebab, chicken tikka and chicken claypot with naan was exceptionally flavoured.
Each pint of carling lager was freezing cold and was very enjoyable to drink...between 5 of us we all enjoyed a stress free few hours.Unfortunately no photos due to stress free period, however I'm sure the vines post have many pictures to make you want to go.

We have been visiting regularly for years and have even driven from a Saturday shopping trip to Birmingham to have lunch.
We tend to have 2/3 items from the BBQ and have never been disappointed, the food is consistently excellent and is definitely a favourite of ours, although we do avoid matchdays (WBA home games).We have just returned from a Sunday afternoon visit and have found everything to be as good as ever.
Regarding the BBQ staff which some reviews criticise - we have never had a problem. The older guy has been there for years and is a bit of a character. We have never found any of the staff at the Vine to be rude in all the years we have been using it. It's a unique place to go and others have copied the concept but not to the same standard. The Vine will continue to be one of our favourite places to eat.

Used the Vine frequently this year, curries are reliable, not as spicy as some would have you believe, but still great. Usually have a curry rice and Naan of some description, always good value, quick to be served, tasty and filling. Hotter the better, yet to try the grill as I'm working my way through the curries at the moment!
Good food at a reasonable price - what more do you need?
Oh and the beer is well kept with a reasonable choice too.
Will be eating there the next time I'm in West Bromwich

Called in on way back from hospital. Good menu reasonable value for money. Ordered 2 starters to share chicken pakora and veg samosa. Plenty to share. Ordered 2 curries chicken Rogan josh and garlic chicken. Good portion sizes ended up taking some home. 1 nan between 2 as large portion. Food looked lovely from bbq area although we didn't order any will try on next visit.
