Slow service on the Isle of Wight falls into one of two categories. Either piece of life on the island, genuinely terrible service. Sadly, this falls into the latter more than the former. We had a reservation for 2 pm and didn’t even get drinks until around 2.45. It was easily an hour after we arrived before we got some food. At least two tables who arrived after us was served and had their meals delivered before us. There was hardly anything in way of an apology until we actually complained We suggested by way of gesture, the restaurant could discount the price of one bottle of Prosecco, they brought us another free of charge. The wholesale cost of two bottles means they still made a profit. Food is fine, although overpriced for what was ordered, sharing fish platter looked amazing. But one of our party had the coronation chicken sandwich which was average at best. The restaurant feels more like a backstreet Café than it does a restaurant. There are far better places to eat and drink on the Isle of Wight. Save your money and eat elsewhere.

We couldn’t wait to visit this little restaurant again after a one year absence. It continues to serve, amazing seafood, mainly lobster and crab, the freshest you can find on the island. Very pleasant and super fast service, we enjoyed absolutely the freshest, delicious dressed crab and salad, and crab filled baguettes. We were lucky to have a beautiful day in February, it’s best to make a reservation as this restaurant is extremely popular with the tourists and locals alike. Highly recommended!

We visited on new years eve and the crab was horrible, I've not tasted crab like it, the 4 dressed crabs we had all tasted the same, bitter with an almost chemical after taste. We usually buy the platter but after experiencing over cooked lobster and mussels with the same texture of a 20p bouncy ball last time, we avoided it to be greeted by bad crab , then they tried to charge us over £230 for the privilege. The lady added lots onto the tablet/till we didn't order, we told her what we ordered and she said she would sort it and come over, then left us sat waiting for 15 minutes. this place has lost its friendly appeal. I'm truly gutted as this was a nice place

We were lucky to just walk in and get an inside table on a Monday at 2pm. Very pleasant quick service, did not like wine served from miniature bottles. However the crab baguette and crab salad were so out of this world delicious, so fresh and sweet, that we would give 10 stars if possible. Very nice view of the marina, we really enjoyed being on this floating cafe. Our only regret is not having enough time in our itinerary to visit again.

Menu somewhat limited, but food excellent. Mostly served lobster, crab and prawns. No desserts available. A little on the expensive side, but this was a birthday treat for my partner, so we splashed out. The lobster and dressed crab were to die for. We went to the sister establishment just down the road for dessert, which was again excellent. Sticky toffee pudding and lemon cheesecake gorgeous. Menu had more to offer in the way of classics, but the Best Dressed Crab and Lobster ideal for a special treat. I can recommend them both.

We called in on speck. The carpark wasn't full and walked in lots of free tables but a sign said no crab or prawn baguettes/sandwiches. We decided to go back to the shop first where we were told there wasn't any crab or prawns for sale but to go to the café. When I mentioned the sign I was told that there was crab and prawns but only for full salads and platters which was pointed out to me on the shop menu. I do not like being "persuaded" to eat and pay more for my lunch. It's their perogative to do this of course but I won't be going back.

The Best Dressed Crab sits upon a floating pontoon within Bembridge bay given a nice backdrop to your dining experience. A small café serving top quality, super fresh sea food. The two person sea food platter was easily big enough to feed three. I would highly recommend a visit if you're on the island.

This was one of those moments that was "off the Cuff". We had been to Bembridge and was passing we decided to call in. We both decided to have the Dressed Crab Salad. The staff were polite and very attentive, we ordered food and drinks, drinks arrived very quickly. the food shortly after. The presentation was beautiful. The crab was delicious, the salad was fresh and crisp, the chips were piping hot and cooked to perfection. The vinaigrette was just WOW. We had a wonderful time and would strongly recommend anyone who loves Crab.

We were greeted by a member of staff to be told us there were no tables available fully booked , and advisable to prebook …. Fair enough and left. Hubby then decided to go back and see if they offered take out food … when he noticed a small party of people just arrived with no booking to be seated straight away. Hubby then questioned a member of staff to ask why wasn’t that table offered to us , we could have easily have waited 5 minutes ? Suddenly a table became available for us. We sat at the table feeling a little uncomfortable , we ordered drinks and food. We both ordered the dressed crab with salad and baguette. The food arrived , crab was pretty tasteless on a bed of what looked like limp packet salad leaves and portion of uninteresting baguette. After waiting a while we have up on waiting to be asked if we would like to see a dessert menu , coffee or our bill , so decided to go to the till to pay. Sadly not a place we would return to. I appreciate that lunchtime can be busy but I have to say this was the most miserable dining experience I have ever encountered - which is such a shame because it’s in an idyllic location and should have a been a pleasant dinning experience.

We came across this restaurant by chance when reading up on things to do local to our campsite. As a massive seafood fan I was keen to visit - so we booked a table for myself, my partner and our 3 children and my parents. The only free slot we had was for the final day of our holiday - literally the same day we were due to get the ferry back. So after booking we virtually forgot about it until the day. The establishment did not look like much from the very small carpark outside and the tide was out so there were a few flies buzzing around. An old couple also bundled past us on the platform to the restaurant as we were carefully walking the kids along and taking in the sites (very rude customers who hadn't booked and were hoping to steal a march on us in case we hadn't either..) We were seated outside - fortunately the weather was nice as it was uncovered and we were at the mercy of the elements - but we had an amazing view of the harbour and enjoyed the sea air. There was only one thing I wanted on the menu.. the Speciality Seafood Platter for Two (for myself). It was the same price as a "whole lobster" at the Crab & Lobster pub we had visited the night before and yet it had so much more on it (whole lobster, two dressed crabs, four crevettes with prawns, mussels and clams). Wow. It did not disappoint. I would absolutely go back to the Isle of Wight just to have that platter again. Great taste and great value. I am so pleased it was the last meal I tasted in IoW as I left feeling full and extremely happy. Would absolutely recommend this place as somewhere to visit for lunch if you are nearby. Remember to book!! Or you might get thrown off the pier by locals who haven't booked either... ;)

Although the crab salads that we ordered were good, our experience at the Best Dressed Crab means there will be no return visit! Firstly be warned there is very limited parking at peak season. We phoned in advance to let them know we’d be a few minutes late due to finding parking. I was barked back at with well I hope you’re not too late as you’re table is booked after you! We had no choice but to pull into the full car park to unload the children. We were very surprised to be greeted by not a hello, but a comment of your 4 minutes late….in light of the fact I phoned we thought this was a little unnecessary! We were then informed that pulling into the middle of the car park was a big no no and we must move straight away!!! At this point we nearly left…. We had to ask for drinks and to place and order (which wasn’t done with a smile), and then after lunch when my 4 year old politely asked for an ice cream, we were reminded again that our table was booked again at 2.00. The table was actually booked at 2.15 so thankfully time for his ice cream!! Having worked in the hospitality industry all my life, it doesn’t take much to make people feel welcome and treat them as you would like to be treated yourself. We completely understand that this is a busy restaurant in peak season, but this should never be an excuse for poor service.
