Whether you're staying at luxury hotel Barton Hall for the weekend, or a Kettering local looking for somewhere swanky to book for a nice meal out, Vines makes for a lovely option offering British cuisine in a stylish, refined setting.
Vines is an all-day eatery so you're in luck here whether you stop by for breakfast, lunch or dinner, all of which have their own dedicated menu. For breakfast, guests of the hotel can enjoy all the classics included a continental selection, pastries and a full English, while the restaurant opens up to all for lunch time. Here, from midday the menu switches over to the likes of chicken ceaser salad, sirloin steak served with roasted plum tomatoes, mushrooms and chips, as well as fish and chips. For dinner, get into starters such as beetroot cured salmon or salt and pepper squid, mains like chicken, ham and leek suet or garlic, chilli and hoisin tofu, followed by desserts like coconut key lime pie.
For special occasions like birthdays or Mother's Day, Vines' afternoon tea is particularly popular which includes finger sandwiches, freshly-baked scones alongside jam and clotted cream, as well as hot drinks and sparkling wines. On Sundays, guests and visitors alike love to delve into Barton Hall's signature roast strip loin of beef, served alongside all the trimmings such as yorkshire puddings, roast potatoes and seasonal vegetables.
Private dining options can be catered to by the Vines team to a certain extent; groups of up to 24 are offered a large, banqueting table within the restaurant, but if you're planning something bigger the team are more than happy to talk you through Barton Hall's extensive options with a capacity of up to 180.
While in the winter, Vines has a cosy feel with a dark, moody colour scheme and comfy, leather chairs, in the summertime outdoor areas like terrace open up, offering a new menu and chance to enjoy the sunshine.
