Lovely service - our drink order was…read moreattempted by no less than 3 separate servers, who were all so sweet and conscientious, as well as very attentive! The place was heaving but the service was consistently good. It has a great vibe and the cure kids' corner chair and treasure box was a cute addition. The cute planters lining the walls and unique decor (tennis rackets and Buddhas) is really fun. And did I mention they do plain fries, curry coconut fries, and even Parmesan truffle fries!! We really liked this place.

It could not have been easier to work with them. Placed a multi day order of different sandwiches each day, some with specific dietary desires, gave a credit card and every day we picked up expertly crafted and properly packed baguettes for the day on the water. Best part was it's proximity to the harbour.

This smashing little deli / sandwich bar is a gem.

Coffee is fresh as are the baguettes. Good value for money and always welcoming. If you are in Cowes pop in. Disclaimer, my wife is now addicted to the yoghurt shakes, and they once teased her saying that the machine had broken - she nearly lost it! Luckily it was fully working, so the fresh strawberry-lemon shake went down very well, along with the flake!

It's in the town centre so pretty close to shops etc. It's a decent menu with all the classics like burgers, hot dogs, fries and shakes. Honestly I first thought the food would be ok at best but was pleasantly surprised and really enjoyed it. I had the NY club sandwich which was really filling and tasty. Everyone else said their food was just as good! If you're feeling that sweet tooth, try one of their freakshakes which look amazing but if you're counting calories, I wouldn't go near them as it looks intense but great! Service was great and very friendly and would recommend Phils Diner for anyone wanting a bite to eat.

It is always clean and tidy and the staff friendly. There is a wide variety of coffee's, teas and hot chocolate available that you are spoilt for choice.

A luxury indulgence.

The waiter was very polite and friendly and we were quickly seated out on the patio, the decor has a rural feel which looks slightly out of place in such a modern building. But it is the food that is the star here and they have a good selection of tapas, main dishes , deserts , wine and beer. We chose a main dish, pork T-bone (which was huge)with twice cooked chips, onion & pepper cooked in paprika and herbs and it was lovely. The pork cooked with garlic and herbs was so succulent and the pepper and onion had a pleasing delicate flavour finished with some great tasting chips. Highly recommend this place!

The food was cooked to order and for the small price of a short wait, it was delivered piping hot Mmm. I can see why people travel from around the island to get fish and chips here. The batter is so light and non greasy, staying super crunchy. The fish and prawns were fresh and a generous portion was served. The servers also gave us a generous portion of scraps (crispy bits) at my request The chips were also crispy shelled and had a fluffy interior. They didn't become soggy at the bottom like a lot of chip shop chips Definite 5 star venue
