    Stopped here after a bit of a hike to Corrin's Tower and visiting Peel Castle. It wasn't open by…read morethe time I arrived in the morning, but was like an old fashion Ice Cream Parlor so I had to stop by. Please keep in mind that I was on a work trip in 2019 and over the weekend, I just hopped over to the Isle of Man. So I can say that the ice cream was good and the portions were just right. The view and ambiance were great as I sat by the window and could look out to see Peel Castle. I would definitely return here, if I was ever in the area again. Enjoy!!

    Deliciousness in a tub!…read more This family-owned ice cream parlour is a firm favourite amongst the locals on the Island. Made with cows milk, double cream, butter and sugar it might bump me up the list for coronary bypass surgery, but in the meantime I'm going to enjoy the creamy tastiness of this ice cream. There are many flavours available, I went for the mango and raspberry on this occasion. Fruity but maybe slightly artificial tasting. As well as the standard ice cream they do sundaes, sandwiches, salads and other light lunches, hot and cold drinks and sweets and gifts to take away. There are a few tables to allow you to eat in, a necessity in November. However, in the summer it's ideally placed on the seafront for you to buy your cone to go take a stroll along the prom, with great views of Peel Castle and the beach. A great Isle of Man institution, a firm favourite with locals and tourists alike.

    Wanted to go for a long time but could not bring the family as you have to be 18+ since it is in…read morethe casino. Went with a couple of friends and ordered Royal Flush Banquet and was generally pleased. First it truly was a banquet, a ton of food for a very reasonable price. It started with a platter of appetizers: salt and pepper spare ribs, crispy seaweed, spring rolls, prawn toast and chicken with satay sauce. Didn't love the salt and pepper spare ribs as they were breaded and deep fried (and I think bought at Robinsons). Everything else, though, was excellent. Then there was a course of crispy aromatic duck. Really enjoyed that, but I usually really enjoy deck. For the mains, we had steak cantonese style, lemon chicken, sweet and sour pork, king prawns with broccoli and fried rice. The steak was good, not fatty or chewy, pretty good quality. I loved the chicken but it was deep fried in a very sweet lemony sauce, so not for everyone. They brought us sweet and sour chicken and then brought the pork once we pointed it out. It was typical, and actually the pork and chicken were pretty interchangeable. I am not a fan of king prawns on the island, they are tiny compared to king prawns most places. That said, they tested good and were not overly fishy. The rice was also nice. Too stuffed for the dessert but one in our party did order the ice cream but was brought banana fritters. When pointed out, they effectively dropped a scoop of ice cream on the plate. So the food plentiful and pretty good. Almost dropped them a star as they made two mistakes on the order (sweet and sour chicken instead of pork, fritters instead of ice cream) but stuff happens. You also get a 5 pound chip to play in the casino with the bill, a fun touch.

    Travelling through Douglas on the Isle of Man and just wandered in - definitely a busy venue…read moreattached to the Best Western Hotel & Casino. Definitely delivers on the Chinese Restaurant experience - we had the Full House banquet (£22 pp, minimum 2 people) which consisted of duck pancakes for entree, which were authentically served with thinly sliced cucumber, shallot, steamed wraps & plum sauce. Mains were lemon chicken, prawns with broccoli in oyster sauce, sweet sour crispy beef and yang chow fried rice. Dessert was a choice of ice cream or pineapple/banana fritter. Whilst service was a bit slow (busy Friday night) the staff were courteous and helpful. I actually highly rated the yang Chow fried rice (great flavour & spirited wok aroma) and broccoli prawns which was more of a crystal glaze than thick oyster sauce bath which is what the title would imply. Sometimes simple things and simple flavours are best - broccoli was cooked aldente with just the perfect snap upon bite. Give it a go, particularly the yang chow fried rice and try the non-deep fried foods which seems to be where this restaurant shines.

    Yum! This was place was delicious! We were visiting the island and our host told us about ginger…read moreice cream at this place. We came for the ice cream and decided to have dinner too--might as well, right? Everything was delicious and super flavorful (we were missing having spices in our food after a month of English/Irish food during our travels). We sat upstairs where it was quiet and pleasant. Our waitress was super sweet and attentive, even though it required her to run up the stairs all evening. The decor was lovely. The complimentary rice puffs were a nice touch. We definitely finished off with ice cream. My boyfriend got fried ice cream, but it wasn't at all like the kind he is used to in the US. It was still good, he was just confused, haha. Our bellies were full and happy afterward. We would absolutely come back if we find ourselves on Isle of Man again. The only thing I didn't like was the bottomless tea. I got so excited that I could have plenty of tea with my meal, but it was basically hot water with a few leaves thrown in. I couldn't taste the tea at all as it was, and of course, when they refill it, it was just more water added to the same old flavorless tea leaves, and I have no idea how anyone could fall that tea. Disappointed in that regard. Otherwise, all was great!

Also, the staff are always friendly and professional making sure everything's alright. We try to order different food from the menu and each time the food comes hot, aromatic and always delicious. Lastly, the portions is enough to satiate one hungry tummy . ** Asian restaurant and Vegan friendly .

    The Cabin is an old fashioned ice cream shop looking over Donaghadee harbour. It only sells vanilla…read moreice cream and I do not even like vanilla but the cabin takes vanilla and pimps it. Add marshmallows, sprinkles and sauce and this plain old ice cream becomes an ice cream super power. Unfortunately pregnant women can not eat the Cabin ice cream as it is made with raw eggs. There's another helpful tip for you.

    Sweets, sweets and more sweets. Seriously, the largest number of sweets I have ever seen. Boy was…read morethis going to be a problem... The shop assistant was ever so patient, as I stood trying to a) take in the various kinds of sweets, and b) make my mind up from the huge choice. Five minutes later (they were a loooonnggg five minutes), and I was eventually able to come to a conclusion (of sorts). Don't think the shop assistant was as ever as glad to see me stop gazing longingly at the profusion of delectable sweeties. Honestly. First up was a quarter of a pound of jelly beans (apparently they don't work in grammes), as apparently my dad likes them, or so I thought. Upon further investigation, this is not the case...they're just "all right". Hmph, well that's the last time I buy him any sweets. I couldn't possibly leave without purchasing Millions (blackcurrant flavour s'il vous plait), so I took a load of them too. The best bit about eating them is being able to say to people "oh, I lost a million" when you drop one on the ground. Priceless. Just as I was finishing up, my eye caught sight of those little fruity stick things (wonderful description I know...and the shop assistant even told me their name, but alas, I have forgotten), so I took twenty of them, just for good measure. And so that Mr Dentist will love me even more tomorrow...eeek. The shop itself is truly retro...man, it's even got a wireless in the corner! There's a cute little fireplace, a few pictures, and whole lot of charm. Sweet, in more ways than one.
