6 of us enjoyed fabulous toasties, Sausage rolls and baguettes in the sun, outside this fantastic little street cafe. The coffee was top notch and my daughter loved her Ice tea. The team were very helpful which led to my Mum purchasing some of their local IOW goods from selection of jams, biscuits, alcohol and cheeses. Great value, nice people and perfect location.

"Not been there since it changed hands" "It was really good but haven't been there since the old people left" was what we were told. Well, as a real fussy bugger about my food, let me tell you we're very pleased that we went to Mojacs tonight as it was fab! We had the scallops and the king prawns as starters, both were cooked to perfection. I was hesitate about the apple and parsnip puree that came with the scallops as thought it would be too sweet but not at all. We had the lamb chops and the pork belly (from the specials board) and again, they were both delicious and cooked fantastically well. Don't take my word for it, try it yourself as you will not be disappointed

Friendly for sure. Good sized breakfast but feel the sausages could be of a better quality as it let the meal down. I couldn't eat them as they were not meaty and felt rubbery.

Stay away from this restaurant. It has a policy of harassing people on the table if the next customer has arrived early. I agreed with the chef 3 days previously...his exact words than were "as long as you're in and out by 8, will be fine" and the waiter is my witness. My goal was to leave at 7:50, 7.55 at the latest . I contacted the restaurant 25 minutes before arriving to ensure my starter would be ready to eat immediately upon arrival. This was to ensure there would be no problems nearer to 8pm. The starter was not ready when I arrived. I was the only person in the restaurant and I had to wait 15 minutes for the starter. This made a big difference to the evening. At 7:50 the next people arrive and she tells me to vacate the table while I'm eating my dessert. I ignore her and carry on eating my dessert. 2 minutes later she tells me again to vacate the table. I ignore her as I am halfway through my dessert. At 7.55pm the next people were able to sit down. Prioritising the next customer who's arrived early over the person on the table is guaranteed to lose the custom of the person on the table. The common sense thing to do was to leave me alone and let me finish my dessert and then she would have kept my custom but she'd rather lose my custom. I go to four restaurants a week and I've never seen anything like it. This restaurant's policy of harassing customers on the table because the next customer has arrived early is losing customers and I suggest you don't even think of becoming a customer there, it was extremely rude. I've been to 21 restaurants on the Isle of Wight and the red duster tops them all for rudeness, the sheer audacity of this place beggars belief. Also, the chef's wife/waitress could not answer basic questions about the menu. I was astonished at her lack of knowledge of the menu. She did not bother to understand the menu and her explanation was for this was because she was a vegetarian.

Service was excellent. I ordered the breakfast and my daughter had cheese jacket potato. Both were delicious and came out piping hot. Defiantly worth a visit.

Visited in the summer and had no complaints, unfortunately yesterday was not good. The chips were cold and old and the fish wasn’t much better. We were told that it was the potatoes that caused the grotty chips. I don’t think so, they were probably from the previous evening! Unfortunately won’t be visiting Corrie again.

Lovely breakfast, friendly staff, would visit again. Made to feel very welcome at this gem of a cafe. Nothing too much trouble. One of the best breakfasts on the island. Ask for the trains to be switched on and see them, it was lovely.

After reopening again in 2023 after its closure in 2022 everything seemed to be going well until late in 2023 when despite not having any information that it had closed, it shut one night never to reopen. No notices in the windows. No announcement like last time to tell their loyal customers that they'd decided to close down. And now it seems it HAS closed down & is being turned into flats! Well, there's a lot of unhappy people from over the last 30 years who would have liked to have been told 😔 Bad form Chip Ahoy....

Haven’t stayed here for many years. Wow it’s changed. We could not have been treated any better. Dogs are very much welcomed and spoilt rotten. Lovely room, lovely breakfast, lovely hosts. Thank you Andy for making us so welcomed we’ll be back.

Strange place ! Stepped in for a look and came out with a barely full tummy and a fairly empty wallet . Very expensive for what you get (in both portion size and flavour) . No prices on anything and no indication of how much it came to (you pay once you’ve eaten by holding your card up to a glass ‘magic’ screen without being told how much for) We only found out we’d spent over £30 on a couple of average bits by checking once we left . Will not be returning .
