The Vine
Latest Reviews
It's a known fact......I love Curry, so do my in laws; and it was because of them today that we found the Vine in West Bromwich. Normally you go to an Indian Restaurant, order a ton of Lager, poppadoms and you sit down at a table with a crisp white table cloth waiting for your waiter.
How totally different this place is......
You get outside and you look at the front and you think to yourself "What a dump" but when you get inside it's like walking into the Tardis! It's all fresh and new and loads more room as you keep walking. It has more of a pub type atmosphere and you order your food from the bar and someone brings it to you. We ordered and our food was ready and out in about 5 minutes which was pretty good.
I'm a creature of comfort when I go for an Indian as I've learnt the hard way on many an occasion so I tend to stick to the same things
- Chicken Tikka Masala
- Mushroom Rice
- Keema Naan
This I ordered and I must say it was one of the cleanest looking things I've had, this I mean in the sense they've not used a whole ton of colouring in the food and it tastes really fresh. We had that and shared a starter of Chicken Tikka pieces off of the grill which was really fresh and proper tasting.
My Wife had a Chicken Keema Curry and Masala Chips which is an odd combo but tasted extremely good and together with drinks cost no more than £20!
Had no room for dessert but had a great time, look forward to going back again :)

Go for the food not comfort or ambience, waiting for a table is a pain however that is because this place is popular and always busy. Good prices, excellent food and good service

Good food and nice atmosphere. Very reasonable priced. Eight of us had drinks and food and the bill came around 140.

I was staying in a local hotel and fancied getting out for the evening. I looked on Apple Nearby and found this place. Was it a curry house was it a pub? Sid it give it a go I thought.
Bingo!!! It's everything real ale pub, curry house and indoor BBQ. Food is excellent I went for the special Goat Curry. Fantastic on the bone sweet succulent and spicy.
Great mix of people in gave it a great atmosphere as well. It's not just a pub, it's not a restaurant it's a bit of everything. Thank you Apple Nearby!!! Thank you The Vine!!!!!

The Vine is an amazing place. From the outside it looks like your typical real ale boozer but as soon as you step inside and get a waft of the food you know you've found somewhere a bit special. Head towards the back of the pub and you'll find an extension this houses a load of tables, a selection of menu boards (so much choice!) and the BBQ area where they do a selection of tandoori snacks - including massala fish and smoked trout.
It's hard to know where to start with the curries - you can create your own or opt for one of the chef's specials. There's also an extensive selection of veggie courses and a good choice of extras.
The only real complaint I have is the fact that I felt so stuffed afterwards it was quite a struggle to finish my beer.It's cheaply priced and the staff are nice, cant wait to try again.

We booked a table for four between Christmas and New Year, to include two wheelchair users, and the owners could not have been more helpful in ensuring that the visit went really smoothly. First of all, the staff are extremely helpful, recommending the specials. We opted for chicken biryani, curried lamb shank and the chicken curry prepared in a ceramic pot, all very authentic and delicious - the owners themselves are British-Indian. We had not been prepared for the size of the pub, which was frequented by a great mix of people and many families with young children. There was a pleasant family atmosphere, but small rooms off the main pub - you can eat anywhere you like, apparently - ensure that you can have privacy if you want. Toilets seem brand-new and are spotless.
Full marks for the food, and also for the flexibility of the staff for helping two wheelchair users into the pub without fuss. We'll be back!

Cobra on tap and the Chicken Tikka is amazing, worth West Brom being in the PL for alone.

Bournemouth played West Brom so we arranged to meet in the Vine for a pre-match drink. From the outside it looks tiny but it is huge inside. They have a good range of drinks, hand pulled beer which suited us. The best thing is the food. They have an amazing Indian menu with a BBQ and do homemade naan breads and it is superb! Plus a friendly atmosphere for a pre-match drink.

6 of us called in for a curry tonight, excellent as always, lamb madras with mushroom rice was superb, mushroom and spring onion in the rice is gorgeous.We call in a few times a year and usually have bbq but just fancied a curry tonight, bbq is probably the best around and very nice restaurant now Suki has renovated.
Busy on WBA match days but to be fair it's nearly always busy, parking on surrounding streets, give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

Met some friends, decided to go for curry. Excellent value and was delicious. We particularly liked the positive attitude toward wheelchairs.
Will definitely go again

Following recent closure of Morrisons restaurant we found Vine website & visited with wife at 12.45 on West Brom match day. We were seeking a sit down meal. But found The Vine does not take bookings. Rather it is first come first served. Place looks small from outside but is cavernous inside. After entry up steps passed side rooms with all seats taken. Went through to first bar at end of long room full of people including Bournemouth supporters. Again no seats. On through into larger room again bursting at seams with no available seats. Finally went through doors to partial outside area with most tables taken.
We bought a drink & sampled some BBQ food standing up. Left very disappointed.

TBH used to visit regular but nowadays seems that the prices for tikka are on the up. Never been into there currys as they tend to be a bit on the greasy side. Still it's a clean place tho I suppose!
