Kingsthorne is planning to open a restaurant as part of its Flaxley Estate refurbishment, which will also include a visitor centre, farm shop, and event buildings. The restaurant aims to offer a fantastic menu featuring great quality food, with a focus on ingredients sourced close to home, including meat from their estate and produce from their own kitchen gardens whenever possible. While specific opening days, times, and policies regarding children and dogs are not yet available as the facility is still under development, Kingsthorne's wines have received numerous accolades, including gold, silver, and bronze awards at prestigious competitions such as the International Wine Challenge, Wine GB West, Wine GB Awards, Decanter World Wine, and Independent English Wine Awards.

Three Choirs Vineyards features The Brasserie, a relaxed and informal dining facility with an ambient, eclectic decor and picturesque views of the vines. It serves a tapas-style 'little plates' menu, designed for sharing and to complement the vineyard's award-winning wines, utilizing seasonal and locally sourced ingredients. The Brasserie is open for lunch on Saturdays and Sundays from 12 pm to 2 pm, and for dinner from Wednesday to Sunday, with tables available from 6 pm to 8 pm. Children are welcome, but well-behaved dogs are only permitted at outdoor tables in the courtyard or terrace. The restaurant previously held a 1 AA Rosette until February 2018.
