The concept brought Ramsay's Michelin-starred standards to a modern eclectic format - small plates designed for sharing, built around seasonal British ingredients with Asian and French influences.

The Vineyard belongs to Davy's, the independent, family-owned wine merchant and bar group founded all the way back in 1870, and that century and a half of expertise is written through everything it does.
