Vineyard Kitchen

Tinwood Estate

HIGH-QUALITY, SEASONAL PRODUCE

Modern British Tapas

Our unique concept invites you to select from our assortment of small plates, designed to pair and share with Tinwood’s award-winning sparkling wines.

Our surroundings and the season influence the menu, so our offerings will change throughout the year. We favour fresh, local, and sustainable ingredients wherever possible. You can find a sample menu at the bottom of this page.

The Vineyard Kitchen is open daily from 9:00am to 5:30pm for breakfast, coffee, lunch and afternoon drinks. We operate on a walk-in basis and do not take table reservations, so simply come along and we’ll be delighted to welcome you. 

DAILY WALK-INS

Pop in for Lunch

You don’t need to book a tour to enjoy Tinwood’s food and wine. Our Vineyard Kitchen operates on a walk-in basis daily from 9am. Whether you’re sipping a wine flight at your own pace, relaxing with coffee and cake by the vines, or sharing a tapas-style meal, we invite you to savour the best of our food, wine, and stunning vineyard setting.

During the tour

Food & Wine Pairings

Make the most of your wine tasting experience with delicious pairings from our Vineyard Kitchen. We recommend sharing fresh bread and collecting 3–5 small plates per person to complement each wine. For groups of 6 or more, our Sharing Boards can be pre-ordered with at least five days’ notice. View menus and email info@tinwoodestate.com to add to your reservation.

Relax & Enjoy

Picnic in the Vines

Savour a laid-back food and wine experience with our Picnic in the Vines. Guests can borrow a picnic blanket and fill a hamper with our seasonal dishes—local cheeses, salads, and freshly baked bread—all perfectly paired with Tinwood’s award-winning wines. Find a quiet spot among the vines and soak up the beauty of the estate at your own pace. We do not take bookings for picnics.
