Nettes restaurant mit meersicht. Menue etwas limitiert aner die speisen waren gut. Grosse terrasse. Sehr saubere toiletten. Personal freundlich. Es war etwas kalt im innenbereich da die pubs und restaurants die türen immer geöffnet haben müssen (covid)
Great location and the food was lovely. The staff were very welcoming. We did visit in January, so not busy, but great that somewhere so lovely stays open for the year round visitors. Dropped a star re atmosphere, not because it wasn't busy, but because the music was a little on the loud side and too intrusive. Something a bit more chilled would have been better. Personal opinion only. Otherwise, well worth booking a table. Must be fab on a warm, sunny evening
What a lovely find! Great location and really great food. Thank you to all the amazing staff working too, you were so friendly and we felt you went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and very looked after. Check out their great specials board and awesome cocktails menu!
Looking for something to eat on a BH and the Reef did not disappoint. This was lovely and warm, with a setting looking at the sea. Staff were generally very friendly, generally great service and the food was very good. Great pride taken into it from the chef. The duty manager felt slightly frosty when getting us seated when I asked if it was ok to sit slightly separate from another group, but overall service was great. I would definitely be happy to eat here again.
The best meal we had on the Isle of Wight. We walked from Shanklin to Sandown and came across The Reef while looking for somewhere to eat and have a drink. The staff were very welcoming and the food was amazing and reasonably priced. Will definitely eat here again when we visit the island again.
Fantastic food, great atmosphere and friendly service. Only negative is that we did struggle to catch the waiting staff's attention a couple of times when we wanted to order extra drinks and dessert.
First visit inside (Jan 2023).
I was pleasantly surprised by the decor. It's January so as off season as you can get but still had the full food menu available as well as a specials board. Friendly and attention service from the staff although you could forgive them for switching off (being customer quiet).
Bonus was also a premium beer available, especially welcome as many regular pubs were closed.
This for me is a 'must return to'.
BTW... food was fab.
Great location, good food, as a family we sat and ate on the terrace... Very nice
