Went here for drinks a few times during a short stay in Bembridge. Nice spot, got lucky to be able to sit outside in the sun with a cheap drink. Service was quick. There is a pool table and dart board inside for those who want entertainment. Close to beach.

Under new management and we love it. The smash burgers are superb, as are the White Knuckle ales. Lovely welcoming place, even though the weather hasn't been great! You'll have to bring me out of here in a box! Proper good pub and that's a rare thing these days..!

Really good value and a unique place to stay. As hotel is in shape of a ship, each room has a nautical name. We were in the Bridge. Hotel is short walk from Bembridge and very handy for beach walk. Breakfast was available with cereal and toast and on certain nights the bar was open with food served. George was on hand each morning to answer any questions and we found the history of the inn very interesting.

We just called in here for a drink after being let down with a prior reservation for food elsewhere. And it was just what we needed. Friendly service great ales especially the black IPA. So nice we stayed for lunch which we could not fault so maybe things happen for a reason. Would definitely recommend.

We popped in here today to sample the ales from the Wightknuckle Brewery. The Zapp was well received! We decided to have a bite to eat and the fish gougons, nachos, and bacon, brie and cranberry baguette were all excellent. Served by the delightful Emily and Freya, so friendly and helpful. We'll definitely be back to this lovely little pub.
