The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Cowes North Isle of Wight South East

We had three different things from the menu for lunch and all felt insubstantial for lunch and more like a light snack. Nice people and what we had was nice but personally I would not return for lunch. For example £12 for a salad which had a spoon of hummus, half a small avocado and some leafs and a few cherry tomatoes and croutons feels too insubstantial for the price and as lunch.

We visited as a large group for our Christmas lunch, and it was such a great experience! All the food was fantastic, and the service was warm and attentive. We started with a Charcuterie board, which was a hit with everyone. For my main, I chose the Steak Frites, and it was absolutely delicious—tender, juicy, and perfectly cooked. The Crème Brûlée Tart was a lovely twist on the classic, feeling lighter and softer but still full of flavour. This was a Christmas menu, so you might not find the same dishes on the menu at other times of the year.

A small menu but unusual, classy and creative dishes, beautifully presented, and an extensive wine list. Terri was welcoming and attentive. Recommended for a special meal out.

Not great food, chips were a decent portion but over salty, broccoli was not tempura but some kind of doughy batter covering it, but again a decent portion however the protein both meat and fish, whilst tasty were ridiculously small portions for the price. 3 mouthfuls at best. The pudding had to be returned as inedible. The service was also extremely slow, never asked if we wanted a second drink and we had to ask for the pudding menu after waiting an hour! Despite there being only 4 occupied tables at the time.

10/10 breakfast, service and drinks! Very affordable, they could even charge more money as the food was that good! Everything is made fresh! Sometimes the service was a bit slow as the waitress who takes your order, does your order by herself which can slow things down. But I'd definitely visit again!

Ideally placed in a busy part of Cowes, this longstanding ice cream parlour delivers an absolutely fantastic range of ice creams. I will be back!

Poor experience I'm afraid. Before I start, I'm a huge animal lover; I own 2 dogs, cats and several chickens. But dogs in a café, nope. And big scruffy dogs, left free to wander around a cafe, eating scraps off the floor and licking and sniffing at customer's legs. Absolutely nope. When I asked the lady behind the counter if it was the cafés dog (not that it makes any difference really) I got a simple "no it's a customer's" and that was that. No "oh I'll ask them to put it back on it's lead". I guess that would have been a crazy idea?! I think I could get over the dog being in the cafe as I'm probably being a bit harsh on that point but I really don't think it's appropriate, hygienic or considerate to other customers in the slightest to allow this to happen. The coffee was pretty good but to be honest I was a bit out off after Mutley licked my leg.

Excellent bar, good choice of interesting wines, lager, great atmosphere, good service and loose pistachio nuts Reccomended

Excellent and friendly service. Mark very welcoming and pleasant. Room clean. Evening g meal tasty and plentiful.

Good food, limited menu. Flat iron steak a bit on the small side. Pork Mac and cheese a little too big. 2nd floor a good spot for view. Worth a shot.

Absolutely shocking (pardon the pun). Went in here with my partner after a party and ordered a drink each before heading to a wall opposite the bar to drink and chat (you can see the wall in question in the attached photo). As we were chatting we went to lean against the wall and were hit with an electric shock. Accidentally I then touched the wall again and was promptly hit with another pretty painful electric shock. I looked at the wall in question and it was clearly damp and appeared that touching any part of the wall around the light switch would electrocute you. Obviously not wanting anyone else to experience this I informed a member of the bar staff and we were told that they were aware of the issue and that was it. If you’re aware of the issue why are not blocking off that wall immediately and making sure no one goes near it?! Irritated by his lack of response we then informed a bouncer who gave another nonchalant response and said they were also aware of it but nothing they could do currently. Absolute rubbish. Block the wall of so no one gets zapped!!! Disgusting attitude by the staff who clearly don’t care about the clientele. I wonder how long this wall has been in this state and I fear for the next person who brushes against it.

Only stopped for coffee but have to say it is the best I have had on our holiday so far. Highly recommend.

Called in 2 real ales to choose from didnt stay for another :(. Only seemed to be locals in dont think visitors got much of a welcome. Wont be back.

nice chill amptosphere the coffee i got was top tier service was fast and the people were lovely will be returning

We had a poor dining experience, one meal in particular, the stir fry chicken was very strange with slices of raw tomato and bottled silverside onions. The other meals were indifferent, chips not really hot, a real bugbear with me as it's something that's so easy to get right. They close tomorrow until March so were obviously just not that bothered and keen to get off home. It's a shame as it's an attractive venue with live music and a real nautical vibe.
