Very Nice Pub We used it for two meals during or stay in Shanklin (Evening meal and Sunday Lunch) both were excellent with big portions at very reasonable prices. On our last day we retuned for an evening drink and were recognised by the staff showing how friendly the ambiance was.
Would recommend it if you want an old fashion pub with good beer and food.

Highly recommend the celery and walnut soup, chili salmon, pesto cod (special), and Baileys dessert! Very friendly staff, wonderful atmosphere, and great live music on a Friday night.

Huge portion of fish and chips! Can't fault them there. It was cooked to perfection. They were able to seat us without a reservation as we were turned away by the place opposite. The vibe is very much old-skool country pub, which I really liked. Walls painted in British racing green with Tiffany style lamps. Original beamed ceilings. Parking in the nearby carpark is free after 6pm.

Seafood platter was enormous, so much food we could not eat it all.
Absolutely superb and came with a free bottle of wine. Worth every penny.

Just had the roast beef Sunday dinner. Would highly recommend but don't have too much to eat for breakfast as it is very filling. Sausage meat stuffing and the flash fried veg shavings a nic touch.

First pub in Shanklin we went in to that had any atmosphere. The others were either old man pubs or really just family restaurants.
Great chatty service, three real ales on taps, food coming out looked good but we had already eaten.
Only pub I can see is going back to in Shanklin.

A friendly pub with great food. Service very effective. They do return and ask if your food is good throughout the experience. Very polite staff, clean toilets. Disability friendly entrance to the side and a well presented garden to eat in. Parking within 3min walk from the pub charges apply. Good music but not to loud to interrupt talking to your friends. Kids and dogs welcome
Food all looked very appealing we had the mixed share seafood platter. More than enough for two.

Our first evening in Shanklin we ate here, the food and service was great. 2nd time we went in for drinks (yesterday), and we knew it'd be busy for Saturday night but we was told we can go upstairs and grab a table there. When we got upstairs however we were told that seating was for eating only. This was a disappointing and embarrassing experience for us so we left back for our hotel instead.
