What a find. We live on the island and this was first visit. Lovely lunch. Food and service was great. Made a great change from the Spyglass where we lazily return. Decor and surrounding are excellent and good vibes ?. We will definately be back.

Delicious lunch in a great setting. Front of house staff were very professional, polite and friendly. Sean(?) an accomplished musician serenaded us on his guitar. Can highly recommend.

Great escape from blustery walk along the esplanade. Went in for coffee- ended up having food. Menus was enticing - Superb. Ladies toilet fitted out with disabled hand rails . I even managed to get my scooter inside ! Thank you

Great staff, food and ambience. The tapas dishes were great value for money and delicious. We ate here twice during our week long stay in Ventnor it was so good!

Nice little seaside spot for small plates. We shared the taramasalata dip (pretty good) the barbecued pork belly (which was really more like barbecues pork bites, as it had none of the richness of pork belly and a very dense texture. The crab and shrimp ramekin was very tasty and enjoyable. Though the place wasn't crowded, it took quite a while to get our drinks. We asked if we could get the taramasalata first, then the other dishes afterwards. The waiter said he'd see to it. So, yeah, everything came out all at once. Oh, well.There's no table service, drinks and food are ordered at the bar and delivered to the table.
