The Boathouse in Isle of Wight

The better of the two Chip shops in Totland/Freshwater. Quick service, best chips when cooked from scratch, good portion size

The Sunday roast pork was fantastic. But what a shame our table was squeezed in a busy corner, so tight I couldn't even pull my chair out.

Great service from very welcoming staff. Food was delicious, fresh and served with a smile.

This place’s food and atmosphere has deteriorated. At one point it was a classier gastro pub/restaurant and the food was excellent and the ambience. Something has gone downhill, the staff are sloppy (one waiter in shorts). Ordered two glasses of Sauvignon blanc and got a glass of red and white. Ordered the antipasti and it came without hummus, we queried and they apologised and got something that resembled hummus but wasn’t. The focaccia was just basic olive bread, the butter was in square packets! Not what I would expect from an expensive place and also the butter was from Ireland…locally sourced??? I have seen reviews go down and I can see why, the chef needs to go and it needs a shake up.

Fantastic place to stay. All Staff team members friendly and helpful. Food was delicious. Special thanks to Charlotte for making my stay so enjoyable 💯

I went with my family 4 of us. We had the afternoon tea. So we were told we would have 2 boxes. So it would be afternoon tea for 2 per box. In the end they just brought out one box and a member of staff said they put everything into one box. There was so little for what we paid for. Thankfully we had some vouchers which gave us 50% off so we paid £58 instead of £116. In the box we only had 3 sandwiches cut into 4, 4 scones and we had to share cream and jam which were in the smallest portions, 4 macarons, 2 small doughnuts, 2 chocolate cakes and 4 bitesize cakes. How this warrants the price and also enough for 4 people baffles me. You were only allowed one drink and when I asked for a cappuccino it was frowned upon. I have seen previous afternoon teas that my family have visited and they have sometimes been given loads of food meaning they get given boxes to take food away. Also, there has been silver service. The price for these other afternoon teas has been a lot less. £30 for example. It is safe to say I wouldn’t visit for afternoon tea again, let alone pay the full price. Very disappointed with my visit. The sandwiches were nice tasting though, which was probably the only silver lining to a very dark cloud.

Nice location and food is good but very expensive for the portion size you get. Good choice of drinks, but again pricey.

Lovely pub on the seafront. Brilliant service, Good beer and the food looked nice aswell

Wonderful hotel. Best food I've had in ages (although a few more vegan options wouldn't go amiss 😉). Great experience all round.

Today we went for lunch at our local. What a huge disappointment. We got there just as lunch service started, waited for ages and the order incorrect and one unavailable (after 20 minutes ) staff not really interested. My husband and I ate separately due to timings of order. Sadly, won't be returning as second very poor experience. Real shame.
