Harvest is the most exciting time to visit our Wine Estate! Join us throughout the month of October for lunches and evening meals at our seasonal, pop-up restaurant at the Flint Barns.
The Dining Room at The Flint Barns serves seasonal, produce-led dishes in the relaxed atmosphere of our homely, renovated barn. Expect comforting and generous dishes prepared by our Estate Head Chef, Chris Bailey and his talented team. Our Flint Barns also houses a comfy lounge and beautiful courtyard, perfect for a glass of Sussex Sparkling before or after your meal.
We offer two or three-course menus for dinners Wednesday to Saturday nights, priced at £30 for two course and £35 for three courses. Children’s menu also available.
Between May-September, our Flint Barns welcomes you to enjoy a freshly prepared picnic and a bottle of Sussex Sparkling. During these months, we open the grassy Bank and erect a marquee so you have prime position to sit back and relax with friends and family and enjoy the atmosphere of our Vineyard in all it’s summer time glory.
During the winter months, we serve an appetising Sunday lunch menu in our cosy dining room. Available November 2022 – May 2023. Bookings are now open.
