The best restaurants serving British food in Nettlestone and Seaview Isle of Wight South East

Six of us had an excellent meal at the Seaview Hotel. Staff were very personable and efficient, food was well presented and delicious, atmosphere was buzzy and positive. Would definitely recommend as somewhere nice to eat.

This place is famous for its views across the Solent, but only in the summer. In the winter the windows are always steamed up giving you near to no visibility outside. We didn’t eat but the menu looks good and average prices for the area. Drinks were more expensive than the Seaview Hotel just around the corner. +£1 per drink on gin & tonic. It was November on a Friday evening and all tables were reserved. We did sit at one of their best tables for our drink ‘Captain Ted’s Table’ and it was wobbly as hell. Felt like it was going to give way at any time. Come on this is an easy fix.

great relief to find this place as the breakfast at the B&B was poor. the breakfast was good value of tasty. we went a few times

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 ☆☆☆☆☆

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

We have been visiting Puckpool Tea Gardens also known as The Old Barracks for many years. The current owners have put a lot of effort into appealing to the locals as well as tourists and they allow well behaved dogs into the café which for dog owners is a massive plus. We have never had a bad experience in all the years we have been customers and it is the owners and staff that make a real difference. They remember their regulars and make time to catch up if they are not busy. My mum used to like going in with my dad for a cuppa but sadly passed away recently. The lady owner asked after my mum as she hadn't seen her on our last few visits and was sad to hear our news. She asked if it was ok to speak to my dad and give our condolences which she did. On our walk back to the car my dad remarked how nice it was for her to notice and take the time to talk to him. It only took a few minutes out of her time but it made a huge difference to my dad.
