Festival Diner in Isle of Wight

Two Adults and dog, good atmosphere with old school music and lots memorabilia very enjoyable

Love this place. Formerly "Bagel Wrap" A brilliant cave of memorabilia to the Isle of Wight Festival. Both the old festival from '68-'70 (Lots on my hero Dylan's set in '69 as per the photos and vid), and the modern incarnation from 2002 onwards... Terrific bagels and easily the best Cappuccino in town. Oh and the staff/service is flawless. Go there. I have many times and will be again. Cheers, Ollie

Female staff was very moody wasn't very welcoming breakfast wrap was worst than mcdonalds yet about £2 more left half of it

Both hosting staff have bad attitudes especially the older one, it's a shame because the food is lovely. Just the experience you receive in ordering and getting said food which is appalling. Won't be returning as this is a common occurrence, nearly every time I've come in it's like this. Won't be returning now, enough is enough.

Good gluten free menu and tasty food

Clean,tidy with great food and drinks but most of all the professional, friendly service and atmosphere.

Great food staff very friendly an willing to help with any dietary needs. Recommended the breakfast. An the omelette my son had was amazing. Pop in guys well worth it 👌

Very busy half term lunch, but exceptional service and top-notch food! Can't recommend this place highly enough!

Went to this place with my family and they completely forgot two cream teas from our order and by the time we realised they weren't coming my family were ready to go. The waitress seemed like she had a bit of an attitude too and no attempt to put the situation right. The place wasn't busy so really no excuses. It's a shame because the items we did get were good and the place is full of lots of IoW festy memorabilia.

Everytime we visit the island we come to this place to eat, we have been about 5 times now as the food is so so good!! The Decor is nostalgically amazing too, which is why we love it so much...... but I have to say that everytime, we have been served by a seriously unfriendly female member of staff that let's it down. Its a shame that she greets us with such attitude every time, when it really doesn't take much to smile and make ppl feel welcome! But on the whole this place is great and we would recommend it to everyone!🙂

Popped in for breakfast, lovely food and coffee, very welcoming and relaxing. Recommended

Just had great burgers, plenty of fries and even GF for me. Lovely coffee and great staff. Can recommend and we will be back

What a fantastic place to eat and the food spot on.... 10 out of 10..

my favourite place for lunch, lovely staff and great food at a decent price. Highly Recommended.

Just coming back from the Isle of wight scooter rally. We had visited Nigel and his wonderful staff twice in one day because the food and atmosphere was so good. If you want a chilled environment with good music and good food check it out! Thanks Nigel! Hit us up if your ever over in Dublin . Scooter island team

Lovely place, good food and exceptional service.

The most amazing burgers! Great prices and service too.

Enjoyed an omelette which was cooked well and at a reasonable price. Service was impeccable. Comfy seats and spotlessly clean table. Very tasty mocha. Will return.

Friendly staff and great food, we visited twice in a week as it was so good. Would definitely recommend

Stopped in today for a quick takeaway bite and was not disappointed. Had a brief chat with the two staff behind the counter. Friendly, courteous, upselling without being pushy. Perfect saleswomen. Had two pastrami and pickle bagels. Eat them both before I got down union Street. They were that good. Will definitely be returning.

My wife and I tried this place for the first time for breakfast. We go out for a cooked breakfast once or twice a month on a Sunday morning and do like to try different places and thought we would give the Festival Diner a go as was open and looked fairly busy in there which we usually take as a good sign. Ordered 2 full English breakfasts , had a choice of fried or scrambled egg. Both went for Fried. The food was warm at best when it came. Bacon was surprisingly tasteless. Sausages were not great, not a decent butchers sausage that's for sure. Both my eggs had overcooked yolks and again surprisingly tasteless (my wife's eggs looked much better than mine) I asked the waitress for mustard and she came back with some tub of American brand hot dog mustard, not proper English! ( Maybe that's just me being a little fussy as I like my mustard to have a decent kick!) £9.95 a breakfast is a decent price, if the food is decent. Afraid to say we won't be back for a breakfast again and sadly made me think about coming back to try their burgers which looked decently priced too. Staff really nice and friendly, decent cuppa and restaurant is nice and clean with a nice Isle of Wight Music festival theme. Just wished the food was better which is the main reason people visit.

A lovely warm, welcoming cosy atmosphere, Their all day breakfast and hot chocolate is absolutely delicious. Highly recommended 😀

Staff lovely, the gentleman there I think was the owner was so lovely! Really engaging and have my little niece a piece of fruit on the house. The food was yummy and well worth the money xxx

Food ok, service was disgusting, female staff had bad attitude

best cafe and best food, we go weekly!! lovely friendly staff always make you feel welcome! comfy seats and good coffee too 👏🏻

Lovely coffee, bagel and service!

Tasty food good price great staff friendly and welcoming,nostalgic so what you waiting for pop in 😊

Looking for lunch after a long walk and stopped at the Festival Diner, our first visit. Service was good and there was a nice atmosphere. The food was decent - in terms of the breakfast sandwich it could be improved by offering additional fillings such as onions or mushrooms as similar to other local restaurants.

Had the best milkshake there yesterday and cake

Lovely food. Great coffee. Amd caring friendly staff

Great coffee great knickerbocker glory good price friendly staff and dog friendly too

Wet and windy Monday with 12 of us needing breakfast before heading for the ferry. Some of us want fry ups, some hope for healthy options, we've got 2 small kids and a dog. Hmmmm....challenging situation that could easily turn tense. This place dropped like a blessing from heaven right down in front of us. Fry up sorted. Healthy avocado seeded wholemeal bagel sorted. Dog welcome. And - amazing - porridge with banana for the kids. Smoothies, coffees, alt.milk options and everybody was happy. Great welcome, excellent service, clean and tidy and ... don't miss the history dotted all around the walls. Don't pay at your table, jump up and pay at the desk so you can see the original 1970 posters and newspaper reports about isle of wight festival. Hendrix, Dylan, naked news cameramen and spaced-out NME staff reporters. Atmosphere by the ton here. Met Annie Liebovitz in the toilet, too (I swear).

Excellent food at reasonable prices.

It's a nice place good food reasonable prices

What a great place to stop for something to eat. On our walk around Ryde we called into this diner to have a quick lunch. Everyone was so friendly and we managed to sit in the window table. Our bagels were excellent and I had a can of Camden Pale to wash mine down. Highly recommend when in Ryde.

Never disappointed going in there amazing service and food thank you

Great food and customer service 👌

Excellent food , great choice , friendly staff , quick service , great decor , defo one to visit 👍👍

Short visit to Ryde was an ideal place for afternoon tea and scones very enjoyable very good service well worth visiting.

The menu looked appealing but the reality when delivered was very disappointing. The sausage sandwich was literally two pieces of bread with a cut sausage. Nothing else and cost over £5. The other ordered items weren’t much better. Mozzarella panini was served with cheddar not mozzarella. Triple sandwich was the best of the bad bunch. Service was reluctant. Really disappointing so won’t return.

Short visit to Ryde the Festival Diner bar was an ideal location for afternoon tea with a lovely scone very tasty well worth visiting

We came here for lunch when passing by. Menu was decent and there was quite a large selection of burgers, all day breakfasts and sandwiches. Service was good and there was a nice atmosphere. The food was decent - can’t go wrong with an all day breakfast! Our only criticism is that the booth we were in didn’t have any foot support meaning our legs were hanging in the air!

Very good range menu nice coffee not bitter very relaxed atmosphere excellent service

Festival Diner Ryde Decent breakfast Came here for early morning breakfast full English with tea and toast around £10.00. Nice friendly chap running the café as well as nice décor themed around the 1970’s pop concerts. There is parking outside for about 1hr free. Food was fresh and decent. Does not accept Amercian express but contactless 61A Union St, Ryde PO33 2LG

Stopped into this restaurant before catching the ferry back to the mainland. Very tasty vegetarian full English breakfast along with well-made iced coffee. Food was high quality and well within a reasonable price. I would also suggest going if you are interested in anything rock and roll since they have tons of stuff from the Isle of wight festival on the walls.

This place was great! Dog friendly, gluten free options and the people were so nice! HUGE shout out to the incredibly kind and caring waitress (so sorry I didn't get your name) who showed me a lot of kindness. My dog passed away the day before we went and I had a moment and she comforted me, thank you!!!! 💖

Love the posters and the festival history

Had a panini and toasted wrap, which is something I've not seen before. Would recommend. Great food and service, nice atmosphere. Nice decor too, there's so much to look at that it's hard to stop looking around the place. 10/10 would come back again.

Had a really nice quality breakfast, meaty sausages, good eggs and nice bacon - beans in a separate pot (bonus point as far as I am concerned) attentive staff and friendly vibe. Recommended
