Had a lovely evening. Had the 5 course meal which was extremely tasty. Every dish was presented beautifully n tasted different . Hannah served us with a smile n that made a big added plus . Will highly recommend
Here we are again at our very favourite IOW hotel, once again celebrating a special occasion,as we always do. I found this hotel when I sang here at a friend's wedding and knew it was special. We had our wedding night here in 2020 which, being at the tail end of Covid, the staff (David and Cathy at the time, now retired), and everyone made it as good as it could be, we had our wedding blessing and reception the year after, which was phenomenal. All the staff gave us a wonderful magical day with food to die for and a wonderful memory forever. We've been here since but today's my birthday so another stay at this lovely place, James, the Restaurant Manager, couldn't do enough for us at our lovely "home from home". Beautiful dinner, lovely ambience, and extensive sea view, always meted out with flawless customer service. What more could we ask? David and Cathy have left the hotel in the capable hands of Julian and James so I know it will continue to flourish. Some not so good reviews on here, I honestly don't recognise the hotel they are reviewing, NH is, and always will be, our favourite place to stay (and we only live 10 minutes away). Thank you guys and see you at our next celebration.
Framptons has a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere and the food is always lovely, a bonus for us is its dog friendly.
We went for Sunday lunch and had the beef brisket which was delicious and very tender. We were both full so couldn’t fit in a dessert, but the selection available looked good.
If you are visiting Bembridge it’s worth a visit
The team at The Llama Tree could not have been more helpful and friendly when we asked if we could host part of our wedding there. We love West Wight Alpacas, just over the driveway, and we thought how wonderful it would be to feed our guests pizza after an experience feeding (and walking!) the animals. We struggled to choose from the pizza menu because everything sounded delicious! So the team did an even split of all their topping options and honestly, I'm still struggling to pick a favourite! Us, our families and our friends all enjoyed their pizza and audibly agreed with an Aunt when she said 'this is the best pizza outside of Italy!' The Llama Tree team decorated their space with very pretty wedding decorations and set the table beautifully. They kindly boxed up leftovers which did not last long - enjoyed and complimented again as an evening snack... and once more for breakfast! Thank you to all at The Llama Tree and West Wight Alpacas for making our first day as husband and wife so memorable!
Chine Ave, Shanklin, PO37 6AQ, United Kingdom, England
The very friendly and helpful owner made us fresh donuts just as he was closing up for the night. The donuts were very nice. We didn't stay to eat them but the outdoor seating area looked really cosy with tables and chairs in little shelters and each lit up in a different colour. An echo of the nearby Shanklin Chine. But for the cost of entry there we could have had some amazing ice cream sundays AND one of his slushies for less money.
We will go back again.
The best cafe on the island. Such a variety of food. All tasty and the service is brilliant. We went for breakfast every morning. Would definitely recommend.
35 Esplanade, Shanklin, PO37 6BJ, United Kingdom, England
Went to visit and restaurant is no longer open, despite Google and Facebook pages saying it is. Please update the information about this restaurant so others are aware and don't waste their time visiting
45 minute wait for a cheese and tomato sandwich and a burger! Sadly the food was not worth the wait nor the cost. Expensive in my view. Would not recommend based on my personal experience.
The ice cream is the best on the Island. We come to the IOW every year and we always visit Toppings! The children and grown ups all love it. The scoop sizes are very generous!
Our second visit here and it didn’t disappoint. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The fish and chips were delicious and so were the ham, egg and chips. Fabulous view. We will be back.

We were there a little out of season so not everything was open and some beers weren’t in stock that were on the menu. They have good vegetarian options.
