The best restaurants in Isle of Wight South East

The food and value is amazing. Their loaded rice and fries are amazing value. Been much better since they went private. Always a joy to eat! After 15 pints

Very agreeable space, smart and well appointed, with superb views, freshly cooked food and a lovely owner. Steak was cooked exactly as requested, beautifully served. Tarte tatin "to die for". Kedgeree fishcakes of gorgeous texture and flavour. Altogether, a great experience. We are returning for a pre-Christmas dinner. A real find, I think....

Called today what must have been the busiest day ever. Had to queue for ages but the coffee tea cakes and flapjack perfect. My reason for five stars were for the young lady behind the counter working alone and so hard (others working behind the scenes preparing and serving orders ) but she smiled and was so courteous she deserved a medal. Only downside at 2.30 running out of items such as scones bacon sandwiches etc but maybe they did not expect the number of customers . Well done

A superb base for a stay on the Island, if your plans are to explore, rather than beach. We booked a short, 3-night stay to explore the East side of the island and catch up with friends in Ryde and it was ideal. It is on the edge of a housing area, a short distance from the centre of Bembridge which has a few lovely artisan cafes, farm shop, pub, butchers, bakers and a Boots. Pleasant enough double room with en-suite up in the roof above the hotel entrance (there are three ways in!) with bottled water, biscuits and a kettle. Bathroom well stocked, and the shower is superb. The room door let light in all sides from the hall lighting, which makes me wonder if it is a functional fire door. The hallway light PIR sensor was not dependable, I reported it on checkout. For the second night I figured out how to get it to switch off, but the third night other guests had checked in and stayed opposite so the hallway, and our room was light all night, ok for me , but kept waking my partner. I forgot to mention I had to fix the door lock with the sugar tongs, the screws were loose 😊. We had dinner the first night in the restaurant, great waitress, food ok, but not really gastro, more just nicely done with an interesting menu. I read the Inn was closed for a long time and somewhat recently reopened, and looks to have a good set of locals visiting the bar area regularly, which is nice to see. I hope it does well and likely we will be back ... The breakfast is truly exceptional, no matter what you decide to have, whoever thought that menu up knows what a breakfast needs to provide.

Excellent service and food as always and even took home a piece of Battenburg Cheesecake which was to die for! Highly recommended for home cooked style food and delicious cakes and scones

The food is sublime. Hot and tasty. The service was great and nothing was too much trouble. A hidden gem and is dog friendly

Stopped for a quick sandwich and coffee, smallest sandwich I I’ve had in a long while, served on thin sliced bread. Cost for 2 sandwiches and 2 coffees was £24.20, extortionate in my opinion

Busy Bees Olive Tree is a must go to if on the Isle of Wight Great breakfasts, excellent quality Sausages etc and great toast, unlike many other eateries. Gorgeous Roast dinners, wonderful cake selection and excellent afternoon tea. Christmas time is an excellent time to visit, it's Christmas World time. We keep going back, excellent quality coffees too. 5 Star ☆☆☆☆☆

Fish and chips, sandwiches mit den besten chips der Insel. Die Atmosphäre im pub ist gemütlich und der Service freundlich und humorvoll.

Lunch not a patch on years ago when the food was prepared and interesting.Wonderful terrines , cheese as an option for a supplement. Seems to be Brake Brothers standards now

From the outset the bar staff were friendly and helpful and could not be faulted the food was exquisite and the portion sizes were just right , the value for money was spot on. The ambiance with the view over the Solent as the sun went down was captivating Thank you Seaview Hotel for a memorable evening

I wanted to try this place a few years ago but when I asked if they take card, they said no. So I left. I was met with this same issue recently. It's 2024, who pays with cash?

This little cafe sits right by the sea. The staff are really lovely and welcoming, despite finishing food for the day they still agreed to cook for us. Ham, egg and chips was amazing and our little one was very happy with his sausage, chips and beans. The menu is pretty extensive and there was some lovely cakes on offer too. Reasonably priced with proper mugs of tea. Toilets were also spotless which is also imperative!

This is a great 'out of the way' place to stop and have a quick bite to eat or drink, the cafe is set in the grounds of the abbey and there is seating inside and out. A lovely location on any day. There is a small menu of food available. Plus homemade cakes and hot drinks

Excellent tea and cakes. Tea was full of flavour - both the English and the Earl Grey. The Bakewell Tart was superb - one of the best I’ve tasted. Very pleasant service and dogs welcome. The building is C17th and has real character.
