| Family-type pub with a large open-plan interior and a garden complete with childrens' play area. 4 beers were on - Youngs Bitter, Sharps Doom Bar, Greene King Abbot Ale & Hopback Summer Lightning. Stowford Press was the cider. The village of Brighstone is fairly nice and this makes for a nice stop on a summer's day. blue_scrumpy - 5 Jun 2012 20:11 |
| A bit souless and no local ales on offer. Felt more like a psuedo-gastropub in Wandsworth than an Isle of Wight Country Inn. Still, at least it's open. barclay - 30 Aug 2011 14:10 |
| Been there thrice recently, mainly because it's basically the only pub in the village. On the first occasion we ate. It wasn't busy, we were in the old part of the pub at the top next to the bar, but they wouldn't run a tab without a credit card or similar behind the bar, which is an absolute no-no as far as I'm concerned. I would have understood if we'd been in the garden or even in a far-flung part of the restaurant, but we weren't. That sort of got us off on a bit of a bad footing. The dressed crab looked good, but it turned out the sides were filled out with salad rather than crab meat, which felt very mean indeed given the cost. The pie I had was very average indeed. The beer is okay, not great, but not terrible. The Timothy Taylor Landlord seems to be the best bet. The pub doesn't seem to be as busy as it was, even now it's school holidays. I think it needs to up its game. sew - 31 Jul 2011 07:53 |
| Been here loads of times and never had any complaints. We normally have a bite to eat and go for the baquettes a meal in it's self. The pub is clean and the staff very friendly and helpful. Compared to a lot of pubs on the Island these days this one is welcoming and off the beaten track and never crowded when we have been in winter or summer. squeek - 24 Jul 2010 17:16 |
| We have visited this Pub before and enjoyed the food and atmosphere -good to be allowed to take our dog in too. This Easter we went in for a cream tea and sadly were not that impressed this time. Not cheap, not that tasty and the "pot of tea for two" had just one very weak tea bag. The pub looks good and has been improved but after this we did not return. Instead went to The White Lion at Niton, The Buddle Inn, and The Spyglass at Ventnor. All excellent with loads of atmosphere and good food and beers. Denniswickham - 21 Jun 2010 23:24 |
