Food scene

Seriously this is the best place to eat in Ventnor and one of the best on the island. Booking well in advance is required, or you could try their sister restaurant in Cowes.

On a sunny day, this is the perfect location for some tasty, high end food complete with an amazing view. Again booking is advised.

Other side of the island, but the food and chilled vibe is worth the visit. Good idea to book.

This fish and chip shop at the end of the road is so handy when the fridge is empty or after a long day sightseeing. The curry sauce is seriously good! Check the opening hours as it's not open super late

This is a great country pub, close to the beaches of Brighstone, Brooke and Compton with great views and a lovely beer garden. Book a table in advance.

There's no better way of feeling on holiday than getting your fish straight from the fishermen - so if you're a fish lover and want to cook up a storm with the catch of the day - this place is a must.

One of the best beaches on the Island if you like your waves choppy. A favourite with island surfers.

I totally fell in love with this place - great for dog walking and a coffee from Drew's brews who's there Wed - Sunday. Hang out by the estuary do a spot of bird watching.
