Description

At Quails' Gate, great wine starts in the vineyard. We take that same thinking when sourcing ingredients at Old Vines Restaurant, supporting local farmers, and consciously selecting the best our region has to offer.

Our philosophy is of fresh simplicity : the menu is inspired by regional Okanagan and West Coast ingredients prepared in the classical tradition.

In addition, as a winery restaurant, wine is always a key starting point when a new dish is being developed at Old Vines Restaurant.

Our kitchen environment is fast-paced and team members need to be excellent multi-taskers, detail-oriented, and have a positive demeanour.

Quails' Gate is a dynamic family company rooted in our community, that empowers our people to reach their full potential.
