We went on a Sunday as a family and it was an awesome experience. We were served quickly by a very friendly waitress, and our food was great. We had a selection of the food available (which is specials from day to day, sunday menu and a general menu) and we would definitely go back. Everyone we saw was having a good time and the atmosphere was really good. Decent value for money but we would go again. The servers are very kind (one of them told us what Affogato was, which means drowning in Italian - they serve a dessert with that name! The only fault was they did forget the espresso ☕️ we had orders but it was fixed quickly. Would defo recommend a visit!

THE BEST roast beef I’ve had in a long time! Should have ordered a much bigger portion! Seems to be one of a few pubs (if any) that has Plum Porter (the local shop is also the only stockist). Highly recommended!!! Lovely pub to end a walk at - there are quite a few walks about. Our walk started in Godshill.

Super friendly service, interesting menu. Caters for all tastes. Was a recommended place to eat and it was reasonable. We shared the Arancini. Looks like the rocket that it should have come with wasn’t available as we had a salad mix instead! ;-) ordered a haddock and chips and a scampi. Got 2 haddock. Realised they’d put in the till wrong, apologised and came back with haddock and a scampi. Food tasty. Service friendly. Points to mention. I’m old fashioned but not used to seeing someone walk behind the bar, serve themselves a drink then stand talking to the chef behind the bar whilst the other staff wait on people. Surely chef should in full on service on a Saturday at 8pm? If you want to have a meeting, maybe do it out of sight of your customers? Also check your salt please. Salt cellar nearly empty and damp salt. Will return, good choice menu all round. Could just do with being busier!

Sunday dinner service far too slow. No stuffing with roasts, roast potatoes too hard to cut. Tasted nice unless most of your beef was fatty. The restaurant room we were sat in was very very noisy. Those who ordered from the classic menu enjoyed their meal. Desserts were good, but overall dissapointed.

As some of the previous reviews have stated the dining experience was average. Staff were friendly but it took a while to get our food. Once seated in the dining area we were then going to the bar to get another drink as we were not asked by waiting staff. Scampi was a good portion but no better than a takeaway and the kids meals were okay. No bowl for the mussels which had arrived overcooked and the broth was simply cream which hadn't been reduced. We wouldn't come back as we had much better meals elsewhere.

We visit Niton for our holidays each year for the last 4 years. Each time I have booked 2 meals at the White Lion as we loved the food and service so much. After last Saturdays visit we were so disappointed that I cancelled our second booking and we went elsewhere. The service was poor. Seemed to be very understaffed compared to previous visits. We were moved from the table we had been sitting at to accommodate a party of 6. Then a party of two was seated at the table we had been moved from. Then they had to move because a party of 6 had arrived! We waited 40 mins after our main courses were finished and when we got fed up of waiting for a dessert menu or anyone to clear our table (gentleman in charge? walked past us numerous times) we went to the bar to pay our bill. Only after we were collecting our things to leave did the waitress start to clear our table and asked if we wanted dessert! Food was ok, not as good as it used to be and portions slightly on the mean side. I had the mussels and didn’t get a finger bowl or a bowl for discarded shells. We eat out a lot and had enjoyed previous visits here. Sadly not up to scratch this time.

First impression: lovely and friendly staff. They asked us if we needed help with our luggages before showing us our room. In short they gave us a cheerful welcome. Rooms: 5 stars on all things.. cleanliness was top notch..very clean and crisp smell you feel like no one has slept there before you. They already had made the bed for our son for us. Family room has a big bathroom and a nice deep bathtub (me and my son took turns to enjoy it 🤩) . Luxury faucets ✨✨. Good and enough lighting. Enough storage spaces. Air Con available too. Service: very good. My experience is we didn’t have to wait very long before our meals arrived. Price: reasonable considering the location, service and what you get. I will definitely visit again!

Room stay, pub service and breakfast were amazing. Room was a bit cramped but as can be expected from an old building, everything in the room as well presented and perfectly clean, modern and up to date. I would have benefited from some choices of pillow squishyness having a cricked neck during my visit. Breakfast came in ample helpings, with a choice of cooked stuff and the usual cereals. I would have liked to see some pastries as I'm not a big breakfast person but I understand it being a small capacity inn they would be wasted if no-one ate them.

The White Lion is a lovely place to go to in Niton. Mum and I were staying in Niton and went to the pub one night for dinner. The food was yummy and mum, who is always looking for a good fish and chips, really enjoyed the one she ordered. The staff were amazing and helpful. I ordered the mussels (which were on the Specials board for that week) and rosemary fries and also enjoyed them. Everything, down to the salad, was made with care and fresh ingredients.

A very pleasant environment awaited us upon our arrival, with the staff very welcoming and patient with us as we took a while to get seated. The drinks were sorted very competently as we then perused an interesting menu. I decided on the homemade beef burger with dressing and chips. A very sumptuous burger that I thoroughly enjoyed mainly because it was so tasty with an excellent flavour. My wife had the homemade pie with seasoned veg. The pie was chicken and ham, and once again very tasty with the yummy gravy adding to the many flavours. I being full up shared a sweet, Eton mess strawberry cheesecake with my wife and boy it was gorgeous. A great restaurant to go to for meeting with Friends or a meal for two, with fine ale and friendly staff. We shall go back again soon. Very reasonable price as well.

Came here with high expectations. Sadly were not so. Roast beef was awful, slimy and seemingly uncooked just could not eat it. Roast potatoes seemed to be either from The day before or frozen. Half a carrot which was odd. Yorkshire, gravy and cauliflower cheese was okay. Such a shame considering the pub looked lovely and was clean throughout. - I did have my meal removed from the bill.

Had a Sunday roast meal - very small portions even with the "large", and although each one came with a side of vegetables, they gave us 2 pots of vegetables (thinly sliced carrot and swede) between 3 people (and 2 cauliflower cheeses). It also took a while due to a computer glitch. Initially one meal was missing a yorkshire pudding and we had to ask. The meal itself (roast beef) was not fantastic in flavour either unfortunately and for the price it was not a great roast. My meal which was vegan sausage and mash however was amazing, really tasty and a reasonable portion, the staff got the name of the brand of sausages for me as it was so good I needed to know. But I can't give them higher because the roast was disappointing compared to previous years.

Good food let down by poor service..we waited 30 minutes for them to clear our main course plate after finishing..not only did this mean they lost 4 pudding orders but they also ended up giving us a discount to make up for it...and they only actually started clearing the plate when my wife actually went and asked them too...we nearly left! Felt a bit sorry for the manager who was friendly but had young and inexperienced staff!

The food was not great. Kids burger was the size of a fifty pence piece, and taco came as a wrap? Usually great food? Did rectify the burger but used the original cooked burger and squished an additional one on it (has hash brown remains on it). Kept fries under hot plate while doing so, and chips were hard. "Taco" was a wrap so massively disappointing. Usually great food. Unsure what's happened? Did take the taco off the bill, which made things a bit better but still gutting when you plan a dinner out.

Great lunch from the Christmas menu. All three courses were faultless… great quality ingredients, beautifully cooked and nicely presented. Really top class food. The waiting staff were a little diffident and took a while to warm up and the pub itself was a little austere and lacking atmosphere, but it was a Monday in December so what did I expect! We will return for the highest quality food.

Very disappointed with my meal. I ordered beef cheek from the Christmas menu which was £23. The meal looked very well presented, but when I tried to cut the beef it was so tough,my knife wouldn’t cut through it. So I didn’t even get to taste it. When I called the waiter over about it, he said was the beef tough and wasn’t surprised. By the time my meal was replaced everyone else on the table had finished their meal. Also one of our party needed gluten free options. Non were listed on the menu. After a long wait she was told what her options were, including a Christmas pudding. When challenged on this it was rechecked and turned out not to be gluten free. We won’t be visiting again, which is very disappointing as it is local to us all.

Moved here a couple of years ago & have driven past loads always promising to visit as looks gorgeous from the outside. So came here for the first time Sunday and found the food to be exceptional! At last we found a pub that can cook roast beef pink!!! I had the duck and was blown away, as for the doughnuts filled with onion jam - I have no words! Puds were home made and utterly gorgeous and service excellent from Hannah. On that premise we booked for my birthday today (Wednesday) for 4 of us and we were not disappointed! Food was incredible again - my fillet steak was out of this world. Service was again very good and I was surprised with a dessert birthday plate. Price point was spot on for such wonderful food & drink in a characterful setting. Definitely my new favourite “foodie” pub on the Island, you’ll be hard pushed to find anything else of this standard.

Ryde 2022 illuminated carnival night was a disaster. We queued for 25 minutes to order drinks and food only to be told that the choices we wanted were unavailable. Later queued for 30 minutes to get more drinks and during that time it was announced that there was no more food available this was at 7:30pm. The accommodating staff were working very hard and did best they could but there wasn't enough of them to meet the demand. It wasn't that busy either. I tried to persuade our friends not to go there because of the terrible experiences before especially at group events. We also were guests at a wedding last year (2023) and the food ran out after around 60% had visited the buffet. There were excuses a plenty including the guests were being greed which was a lie. The event was a shambles and the Hotel Ryde Castle is a disgrace to the hospitality industry.
