Wyken Vineyards

We booked for dinner they offered us a glass of wine and then had a walk around the gorgeous gardens which was a splendid way to start. The evening. Food was exquisite and Service excellent. Will be returning

Absolutely wonderful meal at The Leaping Hare last night. First but definitely not our last visit. The food was exceptional, the service spot on. Each course brought new flavours & new twists on tried & true flavours. Quality food & beautifully presented but definitely quality over fanciful whims or over the top presentation. The flavours were rich & offered depth & interest. Highly recommend the hare (the confit was out of this world & the Sea Buckthorn Pavlova exquisite) Service was very personable & professional. Could not fault a thing. Fabulous meal, wonderful evening.

What a restaurant :) Our 4th or 5th visit and sat here enjoying the wood burner and a very fine glass of Wyken produced cocktail. If you have never eaten here then make the detour it's definitely our favourite restaurant and we're 70 miles from home. Fantastic menu of British classic dishes with locally sourced ingredients served in a beautiful English setting.

A nice enough converted barn next to a field with lambs in it was a good start but we were welcomed at the door and pointed to our table rather than being shown to it which seemed odd. Even in a pub you get shown to your table. We ate from a set menu (£30 for 3 courses on a Wednesday for lunch), which was a little bland for both vegetarian and fish options. Dishes lacked a variety of texture and flavour, requiring seasoning at the table. The service was not particularly warm, and being sat next to the door to the shop adjacent neither was I! On the positive side the wine was very good, we had two whites both from the vineyard. Hard to recommend this as a destination for food though the setting is nice and the farmers market might be worth a visit if you're local.

I have been at Wyken Vineyards several times for celebrations at the Leaping Hare, and It's totally worthy. High-quality food from local produce, great local wine, and beautiful gardens (check before visiting them as they close some months a year). It has a lovely gift shop with a good selection of craft products. If you're looking for a rural and elegant place to eat and visit, this is the one to be.

Everything from the greeting when we arrived and though to the bill at the end the service was just right, not too fussy but attentive. The food was of very good standard though out and seasoned and played very well. Well done everyone and we will be back for sure.

Wyken Vineyards is located in gorgeous Suffolk countryside with a very idyllic "Darling Buds of May" feel. We visited the private gardens as part of the NGS scheme and were impressed with just about everything; the old house, the variation of beautiful planting, the general playfulness of features and of the peacefulness of it all. A wonderful place. They have a lovely farm shop and restaurant in an old barn and although we only stopped for coffee and cake, a quick glance at the menu and we were making plans for an evening night out return.

Well we revisited them today. I was treated by my number 1 daughter. Not really an issue but look at the cups. My daughter's was the large one. Full of hot chocolate. Mine was a white coffee. Not too big an issue (see what I did there) I could have another. Not saying I sulked but those that know me well..... Then the food arrived, plentiful and great quality. Tried them on a Sunday with the whole family. We sat in the barn enjoying Venison 🍕 and Croque Monsieur. Plus of course coffee. Not forgetting a portion of chips. All I can say is the food was the best of type I have had. The coffee was also up there. The pizza oven chef made the whole event even more enjoyable with his quips and brevity. We will return, and soon.
