Exquisite dishes, friendly engaging service and chilled stuff perfectly chilled. A fantastic family meal. Crème Brûlée of the Moment was divine. The whole meal was magnificent and memorable.
The food was really delicious. We had the duo of market fish which was really good, tender, fresh and tasty. My OH had the rack of lamb, which was two lamb chops... I think it should be at least three to constitute a rack, so he felt the portion could have been bigger. But it was delicious and he th
Just had a wonderful and lovely dinner with my friends, it was a great experience. Food was excellent, we loved every dish. The service was exceptional, staff was super friendly and helpful. Great wine selection, we enjoyed the Barbera quite a lot. I definitely recommend this place.
Don't be deceived by the outside, the menu was diverse and everything we had was delicious and good value. This would be our top recommendation for dinner in kelso.
We had pasta, mixed starters, venison, deserts and wine, all great, a lovely evening. A waiter even went to the trouble to draw a map
Really excellent find. Great food and really friendly service. They fitted us in on one day and it was so good we came back the next day but we had to book as it was buzzing. Food better than much more expensive options in the wider area.
Gorgeous room. Nice chill atmosphere. I've given the food 4 stars because my lasagna was pretty bland. The starter and desert were great though. 4/5 would choccie mousse again
Cant fault the food staff or price. A fantastic place with great atmosphere
An absolute gem. Would return to Kelso simply to eat here again. Always been quite cynical of online reviews but The Contented Vine deserves the recognition.
Very good food, great service and very reasonably priced.
Really nice venue, once inside it is very cosy and we'll appointed. Ate here twice and had a great meal and good service. The only negative is the menu board and outside (some plants?) could and did put us off. But don't be put off a really nice restaurant with friendly staff.
Warm and friendly welcome in a lovely setting. Food was excellent and they have a good selection of drinks, including Whisky. Priced reasonably. Thankyou
We booked on the day (a Sunday) and were able to eat at the time we wanted (7:30). Although not crowded, there were several diners - enough to feel comfortable. Service was satisfactorily rapid. We were hungry, and asked for bread and olives before our starter. This was served very quickly and i
What a fabulous night. Every course tasted and looked so fresh and the quality was everything we could have wished for. Worth every penny of our bill and would highly recommend.
Amazing food and great ambiance!
Most deliscious scallops.
Their carbonara really deserves to be famous.
Pana cotta, best we had yet!
My partner and I have been here a few times and are always impressed by the standard of food, attention to detail and the lovely atmosphere of the Contented Vine. The servers are all very friendly and continually ask if everything is ok which is very welcome. If you want to experience top notch food
Excellent food and service we both had duo of fish and it was lovely , would recommend
Fantastic restaurant. Great menu and superbly cooked. Staff were friendly and helpful. Only downside, was the background music. Too loud and not in keeping with a restaurant experience. It’s hard to enjoy a meal, when up can hardly hear your partner speaking and not very relaxing when the music is a
Excellent meal, lovely atmosphere and staff, highly recommended.
Absolutely brilliant as always. A superb place for the family to share my 80th birthday. Thanks a million.
