Absolutely loved this place, fantastic setting, great fresh simple food!!! Made my trip to the isle worth it!!!! Highly recommend!!!! Ver carta

Fresh seafoods straight from the sea. I have seen regular fishing boats unloading fresh seafoods ready to be cooked and served to the customers. Expensive as what you can expect with seafoods but not as expensive as the one in Bridport. Will definitely recommend and the only and the best in the Isle of Wight.

Since our first visit to that little cottage twelve years ago, still the BEST crab, lobster, prawns muscles from the only place to get it! What a pair of platters we had, 1kg of fresh crab and a giant crab claw each for the kids. Next time we'll definitely give the amazing looking restaurant a go! Apparently James Martin has even discovered them now!

We were a party of 6. The waitress was very professional, highly accommodating and the food was yummy. I asked for a mixture of crab, prawn and muscles in my dish so I could sample a bit of several dishes, and it was no problem. Portions were large therefore I felt value for money. So all in all I would highly recommend anyone visiting the Isle of Wight to track down this lovely little place. Ver carta

We were lucky to just walk in and get an inside table at 2pm. Very pleasant quick service, did not like wine served from miniature bottles. However the crab baguette and crab salad were so out of this world delicious, so fresh and sweet, that we would give 10 stars if possible. Very nice view of the marina, we really enjoyed being on this floating cafe. Our only regret is not having enough time in our itinerary to visit again.

I will start with I loved the location the slow service and the platter for 2. However my feedback to send it to another level would be to provide a real salad not just a large bag of greens with 2 halves of tiny tomatoes and half a slice of onion. Give people a basket of bread 2 small bagette halves is not enough. Also lose the 2 New Zealand mussels they add nothing to a great dish particularly the crab. Especially when you can't offer chips due to a power issue.

Spotless cafe environment overlooking Bembridge harbour, which has expanded it's eating area inside since I last visited. Food has consistently been excellent on several visits over the past few years, and I recommend anyone to give it a visit. The crab salad is divine. I've read some comments about service quality, but found it to be prompt and consistent with other cafes I've visited. If you want swanky, then go to a restaurant but be prepared to pay 50% more for the same thing. Ver carta
