The Blacksmiths Arms

Heading out to the Theatre, thought we would re-visit one of our favourite eateries first, and yet again the experience was lovely throughout. Have to say, booking is essential, as they fill tables easily. With the picturesque landscape from the dining area it 's no wonder. We 'd never been seated in the window tables before, so this just added to the experience, and watching the weather pass along the Solent was wonderful. The Blacksmiths have a specials board and however inviting the options looked, I was rather famished, so the mixed grill was my only real option. (sure the 16oz T Bone would 've filled the hole, but fancied variety The missus choosing the smaller option of the Pork Belly...

We had a wonderful meal with our family at this restaurant. The menu was good, with a separate menu on a board. It was very busy, but the staff worked hard and the service was still efficient. The beautiful outdoor children's playground and numerous outdoor seats were a plus. I highly recommend making a reservation. We called on Monday and were not able to get a table until Friday, but based on our meal it was definitely worth the wait.

The staff was friendly and accommodated us without a reservation, even though it was a busy weekend. We were seated promptly and had a nice table for the service. The food was delicious, especially the BBQ sauce on the ribs I ordered. The side of coleslaw was also tasty. Everyone in our group enjoyed their meals as well. There was a nice playground for kids outside, including a small play area.

It was lovely. Lovely staff. Amazing meal. Really good prices. It was our first visit but a great place to spend our anniversary! I had pork belly, other half had katsu curry. Puddings were salted caramel cheesecake and I had chocolate fondant! Tasted so good, really generous portions too! The place was very cosy and quaint.

We absolutely adore this restaurant and try to visit as frequently as we can. The average cost per person ranges from £20-30. The food, service, and atmosphere all receive a perfect score of 5. We highly recommend trying the Fresh Fabulous Strawberry Pavlova with Chantilly Cream Coulis - it's delicious!

We had a lovely lunch that was served quickly and with fresh ingredients. The restaurant had a beautiful setting with a sunny view overlooking the landscape and the Solent. I would highly recommend this place for its ambiance, activities for children, and plenty of outdoor seating.

This is my favorite place to eat on the island. I have been coming here for years. The Newchurch pie is heavenly and the pavlova is the perfect combination of crispy and chewy. I always choose these dishes when I come here - I love it here.

Wonderful countryside pub, friendly service, gorgeous food and even view of the sea in the back of the scenery if one sits outside. I had a swordfish burger which was divine.
