The carrot cake was a generous slice and paired nicely with a cup of black coffee. The chocolate chip cookie was good, but a bit too sweet for my taste.

Spacious, clean, and comfortable. The orange colour scheme is quite nice. A solid spot for a relaxed business lunch. Service was efficient, food arrived promptly. The grilled sea bass was well-prepared. Good for a straightforward meal without fuss.

The fish pie was absolutely packed with flavour, really generous portion too. Just found the mash topping a bit too thick for my liking, but still a solid dish.

The homemade cakes and scones were lovely. I really appreciated how fresh everything tasted, you could tell the ingredients were good quality. The scone in particular was so light. A nice spot for a treat.

The food was really good, but the personal touches from the staff are what stood out for me.

Decent curry for a Thursday night. Good portion size, tasted fine. The lounge area is nice for a quick pint after. Bread was a bit greasy though. Does the job for a quick bite.

Lovely meal here! The service was decent, didn&#39;t have to wait ages for anything. Prices felt reasonable for what you get. I&#39;d definitely swing by again.

Lovely cod and chips by the river. The batter was spot on, crispy and light. Fish was a good size, chips were decent too. Service was friendly. A bit pricey for what it is, but the sunny spot made it worthwhile.

First time here and the breakfast was a real find. The cooked breakfast is spot on, especially the local bacon and eggs. Just the right kind of fry-up to start the day.

Loved the maritime theme here, so many interesting artifacts to look at. The fish and chips were good, but what really stood out for me was the freshness of the ingredients. The peas were bright and the fish tasted very clean. A solid choice for a simple, well-made meal.

Dog-friendly spot with water bowls and treats at the bar. Our dog was happy, which made the visit smooth. Convenient for a quick stop.

Busy night with a big group, but the service was spot on. They kept things moving, never felt rushed or forgotten. Really smooth operation.

The staff were so helpful with my dietary needs, and the seats were actually comfortable. Really appreciated that.

Been coming here for years, and it&#39;s always solid. Love that you can pick your potato side - I always go for the roasties. Had a couple of pints and a proper feed with my mate, still under thirty quid.

The carvery station had so much choice! The chef was really friendly, made it a nice spot for a Sunday catch-up with friends.

The mixed meat Sunday roast was a proper treat. The Yorkshire puddings were homemade and so fluffy, and the cauliflower cheese was spot on. A really good, hearty plate of food.

Sam was our waiter and honestly, he made the night. Just the right amount of attentive, and actually funny. A good server makes such a difference.

Sunday roast for a quick bite. Pork and crackling spot on, massive Yorkshire puddings. Got my food in under 10 minutes, which is a win for me. 👍

The service at Chewton Glen was exceptional, especially from our waitress Vicky, who made our evening feel special. The food exceeded our expectations, particularly the burgers and onion rings!

The Sunday roast was spot on. The beef was cooked just right, still pink inside, and the Yorkshire pudding had a nice crisp edge. The chocolate cake with custard afterwards was a good choice, the custard was warm and not too sweet.

Great choice of cask ales. The staff really know their stuff and helped me pick one that wasn&#39;t too heavy. Perfect for a relaxed pint.

The decor here is spot-on, really feels like a little place in Thailand. Had a great time just soaking it in over a bowl of tom yum.

Breakfast was decent, but the wait was longer than expected. The self-order machines are easy enough. A staff member clearing tables was really friendly though &ndash; had a good chat and gave us a tip for saving on future orders.

A nice family-run cafe in Bembridge. The staff were very friendly and efficient. They found a spot for us in the garden area, which was lovely on a sunny day. It felt very relaxed and they were so accommodating with our dog too. A really pleasant, hassle-free visit.

Nice spot for a quick pint. Staff were friendly, and they&rsquo;ve got a little playhouse and some toys to keep the kids busy. 👍 Good for a relaxed afternoon.

First time trying Goan fish curry here, and it was a proper flavour bomb. The curry had a lovely depth, not just heat. Biriyani was spot on too. Will be back for that curry alone.

Stayed one night. The room was comfortable and clean, with a decent view. It was pretty good value for what we paid.

The chicken and bacon pie was the reason for the trip. Flaky pastry, generous filling. It&#39;s a bit of a drive from the city, but the quality is consistent. Service was efficient.
