We came to visit the isle of white over the bank holiday week as the weather was so lovely and searched the cafes we wanted to visit prior to our trip. Lilly’s did not disappoint on the cake front!! They had a good variety even on a super busy day and they were delicious. The wait time was a little while but due to the amount of customers they had we didn’t mind and took our takeaway to have by the seafront (cake with a view) great customer service throughout and nice music.

This is a lovely little eatery, with great views over Ryde beach. I visited with my partner for lunch. We also had our dog, so we sat outside. There was a good varied selection on the menu, all was a reasonable price. The food was presented very well and was tasty. It was a little on the cold side but warm enough to not be too much of an issue. The staff were also friendly. I was a tad perturbed at the end of our visit when I used the loo inside the restaurant, my partner was waiting at the table outside and I was asked by the server if he was paying… I felt a bit like he thought we were going to run away without paying which I found a little offensive. That and the Luke warm food was the only reason I gave a 4/5 otherwise it was a lovely lunch and we enjoyed it. I would visit again.

Ordered a roast, was told it would be 40 minutes wait which was fine. I told the person at the till that I would be sitting outside. I waited 45 mins outside, went back in to chase order to be told it would be another five mins. My food was then brought out by a server and he said I was difficult to find. I highlighted that I had already told the person at the till that I was sitting outside. There was only myself and one other table occupied outside. I tried to cut into the beef and couldn’t as it was tough. I managed to shred a piece and it was stone cold. I then tried a potato which was also stone cold. I went back in with the dinner asking for a refund. I had waited nearly an hour for cold food and now had no time left to wait for a replacement. The server never did come outside to find me or my order number sign so I assume they left the food on the side to get cold. I am that unhappy with the service and the cheek of the server saying I was difficult to find that I’m not likely to visit Busy Bees again for food or otherwise. Remove the outdoor seating if your staff cannot make the effort to walk outside. In future I’ll head to Brading for a home made roast for the same price and better reviews.

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.

Hoping for a light lunch and a pint, not a Sunday roast, went in at about 1215 today. We seemed to be invisible to the two men behind the bar for about ten minutes. Eventually asking if they did sandwiches the (I thought) senior of the two said he would find out. After some time he returned to say they were fully booked. I commented on the many empty tables in the garden, and was told "We're not taking walk-ins". Fair enough, until passing the place an hour later, to see many empty outside tables and people quaffing "casual" drinks. I remember when 40 years ago this was a proper pub called The Battery. Even in those days my late father was concerned about the place becoming overrun by "The Rodneys", but even they weren't there. Dreadful non-experience. Won't be back in a hurry

Without a doubt my fave spot to drop in. For the taster board alone. We gave frequented the Wishing well many time. Always buy a few bottles , or in the case of my wife- shirts) to take home. Cocktails are great. Staff are friendly. Xavier? The central cog has hit on a genius concept Quality Unique look bottles. Professional. Wish I lived near but then I would have a bed there!

Expensive takeaway of average quality. Food & Hygiene Rating 2!! Only saw this when I went to collect the food, if I knew that I would have avoided. Avoid the onion bhaji it was like eating fried hay. The chicken chat puri was a tika version with a very sad looking and unappetising salad.The best dish was the Lamb jalfresi which tasted very nice. The Nans were of a good size and cooked well. Having lived in India and Nepal I’m used to making my own curries, but I was tired and thought I’d treat myself. Prices were steep for an Indian takeaway compared to London but I thought judging by the area of Seaview the food quality would also reflect the prices, not so. Glad that I didn’t eat inside, there is no atmosphere at all whatsoever and no one in sight, very strange.
