Cafes in Ventnor

“We came for a special meal today and every aspect was fantastic. The waitress was really lovely and accommodating for our three year old. Every plate was perfect, and some of the best food we’ve had on the island so far. We were lucky enough to experience the Twisted Roasts and both the pork and beef were amazing. As were all of the starters and desserts. My little one loved her tempura prawns, and the mountain of ice cream at the end. This wasn’t our first time, and it definitely won’t be our last. Thank you so much for such a lovely meal”

“My wife Julia and l had a fantastic breakfast a few weeks ago, Lovely Dita is a cracking host and she really ensures you are made welcome and you enjoy your meal. I will be back again soon. Thank you Dita and Andy the chef.”

“Had a lovely cake and sausage rolls. People were lovely and welcoming. I love the inclusive idea of this place and I bet it's a life line for lots of people. Love it!”

“Stopped in for lunch and was absolutely delighted. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, made even better by the lovely lady serving — warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. Her presence added a personal touch that made the experience feel special.

As for the food? Simply outstanding. Every bite was bursting with flavor — fresh ingredients, beautifully presented, and clearly made with care. It’s rare to find a spot where both the service and the meal are equally memorable, but this café delivered on both.

Highly recommend for anyone looking for a satisfying lunch and a touch of charm with their meal!”

“Always a friendly welcome. The food is all prepared to order and good value. It's also great listening and reminiscing to familiar tracks from earlier times. We always call in for lunch whenever we visit Ventnor. Highly recommend.”

“Another hidden gem, quite a busy little tea shop on the beachfront if you can find it!
Would give 5* for food but only had cake and drinks!”

“Very cute cafe by the seaside with beautiful views.

We had toasted sandwiches which were really nice.

Staff were friendly and the waiting time for food and drinks was quite quick.

Prices are also really affordable.”

“Lovely little shop on sea front , amazing content ,
Cream tea for one “awesome” .”

“We booked this restaurant for wedding anniversary celebration. We love seafood and interested by fusion food idea. The restaurant is packed and we couldn’t find a reservation on weekend so had to book Tuesday. It was okay as we had the time. But I’d highly recommend booking in advance. Even on a Tuesday, the restaurant was so busy!
The seafood platter was very very fulfilling and it was a good mixture of all kinds of seafood for 2 people’s portion. We ordered kids meal on the side for 3Yo.
They also have omakase but they wouldn’t be able to offer omakase with additional food from the menu which makes it very limited. Because we are 3 people, 1 being a toddler, ordering 3 omakase would be too much and 2 would be too little according to the restaurant.
But overall it was great experience! The restaurant is by the sea, on good days, the view can be great.”

“Amazing spot on IOW. Not clear why the whole island is not here! Delicious coffee, yummy cakes next to a fire overlooking a garden!Vegetarian options: Plant based options every day.”
