The Fountain is an old building on Cowes High Street and has the RedJet ferry terminal behind the building. So convenient for the ferry, for shops, other pubs, and coastal walks. Also has a bus stop less than five minutes walk away. We have stayed there three or four times and we have always enjoyed our stays. The rooms are comfortable and cosy. The food is great with veggie and vegan options. The bar is cosy, and is dog friendly. The beers usually include two or three real ales. On top of that, the staff are friendly too.

Stayed for a long weekend. Lovely superior double room, a king bed by the way. Breakfast was superb, Nicky was so helpful, an absolute delight and took an interest in us and our plans for the day. Also enjoyed our evening meals. Staff were all lovely. Couldn't really fault anything other than couldn't work the shower in our room, but that could have been me! Would definitely stay again. Thank you all at the Fountain, Cowes.

We have eaten in a number of pub/restaurants in Cowes but have found the fountain inn the best. Quality food, reasonably priced and excellent service . I had the gammon steak with skin on fries , it came with peas , egg and grilled pineapple. The gammon steak was cooked perfectly. My husband had the steak and ale pie with fries and vegetables. He asked for extra gravy as he never has enough which was brought immediately and all was delicious. It is incredibly dog friendly and has an extensive doggy menu! Our dog had the pigs in blankets which he devoured!!! He was also bought a basket with fresh water and a blanket. Service was very good and the waitress was very attentive. We will definitely be returning.

We stayed here for a few nights with the dog in tow and found this place to be brilliant. Andrew and the team run great ship and we had a lovely stay. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they looked after us and the pooch brilliantly, the place being VERY dog friendly and intuitively set up as such. The room was compact but clean, pleasantly decorated and decently equipped with a lovely harbour view and the bed was very comfortable. We had breakfast one morning and dinner a couple of times and everything was superb quality. Add to that a comfortable bar with good, fresh beer. Greene King can rest easy as the brand is being well looked after here.

This place is, by a very wide margin, the worst place I have ever stayed, including hostels when I was a student. 1. The room was dirty, the lino bathroom floor extremely sticky and the communal areas haven’t been touched in 30 years. 2. The room stank of sewage/urine 3. It was extremely, extremely noisy until well after 1am and it was therefore impossible to sleep. If absolutely everything else in Cowes is booked, you can’t find a boat to sleep on and you don’t have a tent, my advice would be to save the money and get a better nights sleep staying under a bridge.

Stayed at the hotel for one night. Bedroom good size with a double bed. The bathroom could is very tight with a walk in shower. The bedroom furniture is a bit dated and could do with modernisation. However I would stay again. Television was an average size and had Freeview channels. Had a kettle with free tea bags, coffee, biscuits etc. There is no hotel car parking or EV charging available which was a shame. There is car parking options at car parks within the town at an average of £7 per night. The restaurant is located next to the bar area. The bar area is nice with a good selection of drinks. There is an outdoor seating area which overlooks the water. The breakfast is a good selection choice of hot & cold food. The free internet at the hotel is very good on the signal strength. All the staff were very helpful and friendly. The hotel / pub is located on the High Street and does get noisy on the evenings. It’s a shame the windows are not double/triple glazed as the noise gets into the rooms from outside.

Over the last few years we have taken to making the Fountain a regular stop when on holiday in IOW. We cannot recommend it enough, the food is always excellent and very reasonably priced. Staff are always friendly and happy to help. They are also so welcoming to dogs, offering bowls of water and even a pile of dog beds to choose from near the bar! When the weather is nice it’s great to sit out the back and watch the ferries and boats on the water.

My husband and I stayed here back in July of this year as part of our honeymoon celebrations. We were instantly welcomed by friendly and approachable staff that made us feel relaxed. We slept very well in our room. The food at dinner and breakfast was very tasty. Our stay was very pleasant. Staff had expert knowledge of the island and were able to help us navigate and explore areas of interest - this was really helpful as we’d not been to the Isle of Wight before. We have already and would continue to recommend The Fountain Inn to friends and relatives. Thank you!

We have used this place since the 90s and we had our local friends group there for Christmas Dinner here 2022. My husband had a message pop up advertising £25 for 2 drink & 2 meals and urged us to go down. I urged him to phone and check, was told 'yes I'm sure that's everything on the menue' booked tonight (wed) and went down. Was taken to the outside (slightly outdated) dining room for the meal despite offering the bar area, reason we did that was because waitress was already muttering 'can't do 6 things at once' in front of us. We sat and when someone (not waitress) asked our order we ordered drinks and asked if everything was actually on the 2 for £25 deal (again) server said he would check. Server came back with a word document with what was/wasn't on deal not massively impressive given the FB promo. We felt a bit embarrassed at this point as he'd been gone a while. Ordered 2 beyond burgers checked fries were on the menu as all the word doc. said was 'beyond burger' and previously its come with different chips due to no meat contamination. 45mins later food came (this is a 1/2 empty room I can't call it a restaurant). Waitress literally dropped plates and shot off. I flagged her to ask for another drink, she left and we looked at burgers that looked quite greasy and had cheese on. Bearing in mind we have ordered and had these burgers before which are advertised as vegan we were surprised at cheese. Couldn't check menu as we were just shown a hasty word doc. When the waitress returned with drinks we asked her what these burgers were, she came back saying meat; we asked to cancel order as expecting vegan. Male server came back v defensive and quite patronising 'they are meant to look like meat it's veggie hence the cheese vegetarians can eat cheese'. Then went. At this point we were both embarrassed and upset; hadn't been asked if we needed any extra sauces/sides. Had to wait a further 5 mins before someone else appeared to say we would just pay for drinks and leave food. £23 spent for drinks and poor service. As we left the restaurant the glass collector who took our plates was very verbal into the kitchen'look they've not touched it' and the male server was seemingly angry when we went to the bar to pay for drinks. The barman that served was very polite which shows its not all lost but the service was poor and its put us off as locals which is a real shame.

100% RECOMMEND! Dog Friendly is an understatement! - We usually stay here every August Bank Holiday for 4 nights - we come back every year! The food is great and menu has a lot of variety. They even have a food menu for dogs! Which is very good value! Rooms, food and drink very reasonably priced! I’m the bar area there are dog beds and bowls which made my puppy fee right at home! She had a sausage for breakfast every morning and even a roast dinner on Sunday! I can never fault this place - and the landlords Andrew and Nicola can’t do enough for you - they are so attentive and always make our stay comical.

The staff were friendly and helpful, there was a decent menu choice (including vegetarian options), service was prompt and the food was good.

We had a lovely server called Nicki, who was so lovely and very attentive. And the food was so delicious! Will be bringing my family and friends back here :)

The menu is terrific but the cooking is not quite up to it! Our dinner was just disappointing, though nothing awful about it.

Comfortable interior, convenient location, excellent food and lovely staff. Would recommend to anyone in a large party or with children as the venue and staff were very accommodating

We visited for the weekend, travelling on the Red Jet and stayed a night. Perfectly located!!! There was scaffolding up and the hotel was clearly undergoing a revamp. The room was shabby, with dated décor (dark, overly full chintzy curtains were too much for small...

Outside, the scaffolding was a bit off putting, but don't let it. Inside awaits a warm welcome, with attentive staff and excellent food. The staff checked we had everything we needed, but weren't overbearing. The mushroom pie was tasty and the portion was filling -...

Food was well below par. Soggy batter and chewy cod. Not allowed to eat a bar meal in the empty bar. Doesn’t deserve even 1 star. Could be a lovely pub but fairly quite so not a popular one compared to other bars in the...

We had a wonderful meal and were served by Jodie and Michael who were friendly and very efficient. Our dog was made welcome and fussed over. A great visit, thank you. Tip When we arrived it looked as though all the tables were reserved but...

Fantastic place to visit with a great atmosphere and exceptional service. Staff are always super friendly, especially Emily and Gemma who always get the job done whilst enjoying themselves at the same time.

Cheap and cheerful. But great value for what it was. Food good quality and great staff. The mussels I had was great value and far better than another restaurant I went to earlier in the week that was twice the price

My partner and I initially popped in for a coffee which was really nice as we sat in the sunshine at the rear of the hotel in the outside space. It overlooked the marina which was a lovely view. We went back a few days...

This place has sooooo much potential, but the owners let it down. They've let it go to ruin and it's such a shame. The vibe is great but it desperately needs investment. No food either.

The Happy Haddock in Sandown is a must visit if on the Island. Where else can a family of 4 get a decent meal for a total of £25.00 2 adults and 2 children both get Cod and chips + the children get a drink each with their meals. Bargain, especially in 2024. Fish and chips cooked well, very tasty. 5 Star ☆☆☆☆☆

A lovely, welcoming venue. Families with young children are catered for anytime throughout the day and evening. Prices are reasonable too. I can highly recommend the burger meals and grilled chicken. The desserts were amazing! Our favourites were the ice cream with waffles (shown) and chocolate tart with ice cream. They did not disappoint. A huge thank you to the friendly, helpful staff who also catered for our SEND young person's particular food needs. Well done The Bugle Inn!!
