After arranging to meet an old friend here for the 1st time I pulled up and thought that the Vine was not much to look at from the outside and considered going elsewhere. I'm glad I didnt. The service was good, the range and quality of food is good value and tastes excellent. I will definitely be returning to eat here again!

Ive been using the vine for 22 years now, well before it was built into the building you visit today. I have always found the staff welcoming and friendly and the food top notch. I've eaten in a lot of posher places and been disappointed with the food And been charged a lot more to boot.

Working in Oldbury, just up the road, we have visited The Vine many, many times over the years, and it never disappoints. A group of us went again last week straight after work, and it was as good as ever.
The Vine is always very busy, so we got there at 5pm to avoid the crowds. I had three plates of BBQ chicken tikka and methi chicken, and a huge naan bread. The food was superb - perfectly cooked chicken with no giristle, with lovely spice marinades. The naan was also excellent.
The service is always friendly, and the food is excellent value for money.
All in all another great visit to this one of a kind pub. You must try it if you love Indian food !

The family & I have just come back and I'm disappointed to say that we didn't enjoy it which is a pity because I've been looking to going to the Vine for a long time. Judging by its popularity it looks I may be going against the tide but the Vine really isn't for me, why? I'm glad you asked.
For a first timer it's not obvious how this place works. Confusingly the menu and payments are split between two rooms, the bbq room & the "bar", plus there are a couple of other small rooms at the front. We preferred the slightly cosier bar side but even this was too loud, (not just our opinion the staff also commented on it) too cold & draughty (not just our opinion several diners kept their coats on) with a canteen ambience. You can open a tab which worked for us. The bbq food on the grill looked promising and the chicken tikka proved to be ok but the sheekh kebab I reckon would be too hot for anyone less than madras man. Regardless eating off paper plates doesn't do it for me. The curries you have to order from the bar. The menu is on the wall, and there's a limited choice with a couple of specials but no guide as to what they are. You can always ask the guys behind the bar of course but we had two conflicting descriptions of the clay pot and so opted for a madras and a dupiaza. The meals arrived a few minutes after ordering, freshly cooked? That's not a dig by the way. The madras wasn't bad but not as rich as I would have liked. The wife's dupiaza was quite creamy and not to her taste plus they forgot the chick peas we requested so she wasn't happy, at least my daughter enjoyed her korma. The sundries were fine. Very good beer but not so good wine. We left quite a bit of food and rather than waste it we asked if we good take it home, no problem and we were given a couple of foil trays and a carrier bag! Overall far more lows than highs I'm afraid but at least the bill didn't break the bank.

Absolutely fabulous food and good selection of beers and ales. The barbecue food at the rear is fantastic and value for money. Great atmosphere,clean and families are welcome.
Recently revamped its a gem of a find.

Met up with a work colleague who recommended this place - it was different in that it's more 'school refectory' than sit-down restaurant, and takes you a bit by surprise. The menu is extensive - curry - any way you want really, and freshly cooked and good quality. Very friendly & lively environment, looks great for groups. I'm told the beer is good too - but limited to sparkling water as I'm enduring 'dry January'. Ultimately, a great place to eat/meet - it's near a site I visit often, so will definitely be going back.

The title says it all. But I will say that there is often a queue to order your food and once in a while a delay in it being served but the atmosphere and the HUGE television screen keep clients occupied while they wait.

Visited early dec with a friend for a catch up.
Only complaint is that there are no menus on the table. You have to stand gawping over at a wall whilst others are eating. Also the BBQ items are no where to be seen and I thought this must mean they were not on offer (they were) but we missed them due to this.Curry was very tasty and served quickly.
Drinks reasonably priced.

Second visit for food. Excellent meal, great service, good ambience. Little cold in the BBQ room, had to wear our coats to eat, but can't fault food or beer or prices.

short distance from the Hawthorns we had a couple of pre match beers in here. Never tried the food but it did look very good with mainly Indian dishes on the menu. It's a very big pub with plenty of room and a decent selection of beers. Not sure what the guys on the door are collecting money for though.

Visited on a Saturday night with a group of friends, great choice of food from the menu or off the BBQ, love the layout of the front end of the pub and very spacious through the seated areas. Prompt faultless service and lots of empty plates... busy but not too busy, no loud music to drown out conversation - we will definitely be back!!

I came to this pub before going to watch a football match at West Bromich Albion.
It's a very large pub and the staff were of plenty and helpful and polite. I ordered some food which was ok but a bit overpriced for what I got.
It had a mixture of fans from both teams playing that night and everyone got on well and the place was very busy until kick off.
I would definitely visit this pub again if I visit West Bromich again.

Fab curry and grill on offer. Excellent quality and value for money with friendly helpful staff. Lots of seating, catering for all ages and kids are welcome. The range of curries on offer is extensive so ensure you give yourself plenty of time to choose as I assure you you will change your mind a couple times before you finally decide.

A popular pub serving a large variety of decent food. Always busy at lunchtimes but enough space for everyone. Prices are reasonable too.

My 3rd visit to the Vine in recent years was up to it's usual standard, excellent.
If you're looking for a meal & drink before going to the game, then this is the place. They serve many combinations of curry from the bar, & a selection of Kebabs/BBQ from the rear bar. Everything is cooked fresh.
One word of warning, get there early. The place gets absolutely rammed (esp when WHUFC are in town)

This is not your average Pub it is an experience.
Serving excellent Indian food from an extensive selection this is an experience not to miss. The Pub has an indoor BBQ area where you can get freshly cooked Kebabs, fish and other goodies.A limited range of Real Ale is available and always served in a good condition.
It can get very busy but this simply adds to the enjoyment of this somewhat unique Pub.

Smashing meal, cooked to perfection in the BBQ room, very reasonably priced, and generous portion size. Clean toilet facilities, friendly staff and wide choice of meals. I will be going again to try a meal from the curry selection.

The bar staff were rude to me, the place is shabby. The food was nice, and was at the table 2 minutes after we sat down. Not sure if that's a good thing.. Not sure the food is made to order and might be why the bar man was unable to make any change the meal I ordered.
We caught a glimpse into the kitchen and there are rows of microwaves. It is good value for money. I won't be returning I'm a fan of suki's their other restaurant MUCH NICER.

Absolutely brilliant and a very good choice of beers.

Decided to visit The Vine with family for my birthday meal, we have been here many many times previously and have never been disappointed. For a change I chose the special which was salmon, absolutely adored it! The whole family were satisfied with their food, we had ordered curries and barbecue food, every mouthful consistently amazing. I have always recommended this place to everyone looking for good authentic Indian food. Prices have always been reasonable and the service is always fast and always accurate. Never have a negative word to say.

Visited The Vine on many occasions and never been disappointed, the quality of food and speed of service is excellent and always found the staff to be friendly and accommodating. Recently The Vine has had a bit of a makeover which makes it a nice place to eat and drink after work and would recommend.

Who needs a traditional indian restaurant when you can just go to The Vine, West Bromwich. We visited as a couple over lunch. We were the first ones in after 11.30am and we were sat down with our 'Curries-Your own way' 3 meat dish Chicken, Lamb & Prawn with our chosen sauces Balti and Jalfrezi with Pesswari naan's, mushroom fried rice and not forgetting the massala chips within 25 minutes of ordering and being seated. All of this for less than £23.50 and a further £7.00 for drinks making our total bill for 2, a shade over £30.00 which represents excellent value for money!! Can't wait to go back for our 2nd visit, hopefully sometime soon. We can see why this place is so highly recommended. A must try.
