Crab and Lobster Inn

Spectacular oean views. good food. room is clean and comfortable.

We had the Culver Room which had recently been refurbished and was lovely, the only pratfall was the hot water didn't work, cold showers in May are not for the faint hearted!!!

The staff were very friendly and helpful. We were able to drop our bags off earlier in the day before check in. The room was small but clean and very comfortable. We had everything we needed for our 2 night stay.

All spotless

Very new, today rooms, lovely bed, great service. All good.

We had lunch with our children aged 6 and 9. I was aware of this place before visiting the Isle of wight and was one of my places I wanted to visit purely for the potential seafood options available. The menu was varied with plenty of seafood options to which we opted for the seafood platter to share. This was pricey but expected as they usually are. The kids options were good with both going for a burger. The outside seating area has stunning views of the sea and we were blessed with very hot weather. The platter looked great however I did feel a bit disappointed in that if it weren't for the chips, salad and mussels I would have still been hungry as the rest of the platter only consisted of a whole seabass, a few prepared prawns and then a few whole prawns and langostines. I guess there is a reason to return to try something else from the menu. Both kids were satisfied so overall it was a good meal.

Decor a bit too shabby chic and tired. Could do with a bit of brightening up. Great food, but both felt it was over priced. The deserts were tiny for the price charged. The staff were incredibly welcoming, helpful and friendly. They also worked very hard.

Booked sea view room (Nab) it was excellent. Large & airy with windows on two sides & excellent sea view. Only slight niggle, the bath could do with an anti-slip mat. Nearly slipped whilst having a shower. Also, grab handle on wall would be helpful for those of us not quite so nimble. However, that niggle was slightly countered by the fact that the extractor fan actually worked - most unusual! The food in the restaurant was plentiful & delicious, apart from the pudding! The chocolate brownie had the rasberry gel missing and the Eton Mess had no ice cream. I think the chef was rushing to get home! Breakfast was fantastic! Staff were cheerful, friendly & efficient. Bottom line, that will be the place we stay next time we go to the IOW.
