The Hungry Parrott in Isle of Wight

Terrible - shocking service and public facing profile

I don't normally leave reviews but feel I must do here. This is an awesome little cafe with the most accommodating staff you could wish for. If you're passing by, stop off for a full English. You won't be disappointed.

Delicious place for Lunch , delicious cakes, quiche, coffee, alsorts. Friendly staff and always a smile.

Not sure why this is getting such high reviews. Speaking for us 2 vegetarians firstly limited choice. But then food didn't seem to match descriptions. I had an onion squash mozzarella stack. If any mozzarella in there no sign of it. Indeed the whole stack seemed more cooked for people with no teeth. Just pap. Sauce improved it. Meant to be with hassleblad potatoes, but not like any I've know. Just a couple new potatoes baked dry in oven and sliced with an egg slice. Our other dish was meant to be a mushroom stroganoff with tagliatelle. I know a contradiction in terms. Rubbish tomato sauce over tinned mushrooms with the pasta. Sticky toffee pudding similarly badly done. Hey ho. Back to the hotel.

Por estar na praia e ter garantido volume de visitantes, não precisam se esforçar muito para terem o lucro esperado; ainda mais com o preço bem alto por bola de sorvete! A variedade é grande e chama a atenção, porém nem todos os sabores são naturais e os olhos enganam. Recomendo, entretanto, o de mel com gengibre.
