went there on a Sunday afternoon wasn't busy, asked at the bar where to order food
told, grills at the back all other foods at the bar. So we went to the back room where the grill is located, All i can say, it was scary going to the grill chef looked very angry and not happy having to work, ordered chicken tikka and shiek kebab they came out of a fridge looked part cooked and placed an a bbq. All in all food very average wouldn't bother going again Bar staff very helpful grill staff not welcoming

Of course no-one wants quantity mover quality but our first ever visit to The Vine provided a good balance of the two.
To be honest, if we had not heard of the place and good reviews / recommendations then I am not sure that the surroundings and exterior would have lured us in.
I am glad that we took the chance as the whole experience was very positive with an environment that was very easy to quickly become comfortable in - and all the better for the excellent lady that was serving at the bar and taking food orders.
Being an Asian owned/run pub offers the benefit of being genuine cuisine and the option a pint of proper Ale, although there are also a number of alternatives including Cobra on draught.
There are a number of small intimate rooms as well as two sizable areas. The middle room is a tad canteen-like but still not unpleasant as long as you are happy being subject to watching the football or such.
The menu is fairly simple in design; 1. pick a meat or main ingredient 2. pick a sauce or style
We opted for relatively safe options - Chicken Tikka Jalfrezi and Chicken Korma (boring I know but it's allergy driven)
There is also an "indoor bbq" from where I tried the Chicken Tikka (hmmm, something of a theme there.
Whilst the food was good and the portions plentiful - especially my partner's Chicken Pakora - the most impressive aspect was the pains that were taken to check that my partner's choices were coriander-free.
Having now found The Vine I am sure that we will be back with family and friends in the not too distant future.
It has to be worth noting that food is available until 10pm!

We've been here many times and find it the best Indian food around for miles out is always busy so you may have to have a few drinks while you wait for a table.

Been told about this place by a few ppl and decided to give it ago . Drinks are quite expensive . There's a few rooms and u can sit any where and eat the food . You order grill food at the back and any of the other items at the front bar . They all come out at different times , best to order grill first . Chicken tikka was nice , but wasn't overly impressed with the other curries . May be I just ordered the wrong thing . Would I rush back no as it feels like a cafe serving curry

One of the best curries you can get this side of Brum! Great lunchtime deals. Incredible bullet naan!

Food is fantastic and comes out from the kitchen incredibly quick (I don't think I've ever waited more than 5 minutes). Prices are very reasonable and the staff are friendly. I would highly recommend a visit (and the lunchtime platter!).

One of the original curry pubs in Brum. Still going strong. The grills looked good, shame the chefs looked and behaved like they had completely lost interest years ago with sad looks and little eye contact. The rest of the staff were very smiley and friendly.<br>Having said that the grilled starters were fine. The mains came very fast and we're good too. Plenty of seating and a couple of TVs dotted around. Large outdoor area too.<br>Parking is not great as there's no car park I could see.<br>Knocked off a star due to the grill staff, sorry.

Monday night, we turned up at 9.20 and were treated to great food, this is a little gem, I think we will be back for more tomorrow, especially as they serve nice real ale. Definitely worth checking out.

Interesting pub. Was there on an away day to watch Bournemouth vs West Brom. When you get to the pub the frontage means it loos tiny. I really did wonder how we'd get something to eat and drink!!<br><br>As you go through the pub though you realise first looks are deceptive. Two smaller bar areas at the front lead to a very large rear area where they serve food and drinks.<br><br>Also a large beer garden some under shelter and some open to the elements. It was reasonably priced for both food and drinks. Worth a stop if you're up for a match.

Excellent pre-match drinks and food popular with both home and away fans, makes it the best away trip of the season!

Great food and service.
Only downside is some food has to be ordered at different bar- frustrating when busy.

Can't book a table at this place so we was told and we was going on a large number as it was a birthday we got there and it was very busy we ended up seated separately all over the place! Ordered starters and was told 10 mins and was told 20 mins for the mains by the time our starter come the food was out as well other then this defo must try! Food freshly cooked (starters) and tastes amazing!
