About The Contented Vine
In the heart of Pimlico, the Contented Vine is a genuine local's brasserie where at least half the diners chatting around the candlelit tables on any given night are regulars. The heart of the place is, naturally, the main dining room, which has a convivial bar on one side. An English/European menu leans towards fresh, meaty mains, among which the spit roast free range chicken and house burger are constant favourites. Chefs are on view behind the glass screen and everything is freshly prepared. At least one starter, main and dessert are changed every week. More reasons to go? Friendly service and an award-winning international wine list with 20 wines sold by the glass. On Sundays, a great value roast is served between 12pm and 3pm. A reliably good neighborhood restaurant. This month we are celerbrating chocolate week - 16th to 20th october.
Opening hours:
Mon - Sun 12pm - 3.30pm & 5pm - 12am

Review
We arrived at the Contented Vine soaking wet from a downpour and we were very warmly welcomed with clothes being dried on a radiator. Overall the ambience was friendly and service good. Unfortunately my wife's fishcakes were over salty and she could not eat them. Again the staff were very apologetic and offered a free glass of wine as compensation. We did not have another course so could not judge the remainder of the menu. The toilets were basic and, in the gents, no means of drying hands.

CV serves pretty plain food,which to me looked more promising on the menu,however my two companions were pleased with their green curry and roast duck. The starter of goat's cheese salad was,again,tasty but not special in any way- the food has a canteen feel to it. The highlight of the evening was Lebanese wine,which was reasonably priced (by comparison) and delicious. Also had a nice almond tart for dessert. Very pleasant if somewhat slow service. And it was cold inside, so wear something warm!Review
We dined at The Contented Vine on a rainy Friday night but found the place still quite busy. Dishes were served very fast, in fact I would have liked it slower. The food portions were large and very tasty, though the sauce on the pork belly was a bit overpowering. Over all the food was really nice and I would recommend it. Only complaint was having to debate with the wait staff over whether or not we could use the special offer. Although not a big issue, it wasn't a nice way to end the evening.Visitors
