Stopped in Bembridge to pop into the Co-op and kids fancied a hot chocolate after long day on the beach. We popped in No.8 café. Walking through the farm shop it looked well stocked with fresh produce and lots of of other ambient items. The café is up some stairs and small but really well set out with about 5 table and some high stools. We had 2 latte's 5/5, spot on, 2 hot chocolates 5/5 looked fab, Biscof cake - 4/5, nice. Carrot cake 5/5, should be a 6 out of 5 tbh, my partner said it was the best carrot cake she's had in a long time. My daughter had the sausage roll - massive & meaty, would have been better hot, but still a solid 4/5. Overall a beautiful place with great drinks and cakes. Well worth a visit if you are passing.
Whether by bad luck or misfortune I have not managed to get a decent cup of coffee on my IOW travels thus far...well I had an Americano, no milk and it was fantastic, deep rich flavours, tasty and with a very nice body! Highly recommended if you appreciate your coffee. I also had a tuna melt in sourdough and it was very tasty, access is good, although the cafe is upstairs and the there is a single toilet, although very clean and well presented.
All in all highly recommend.
A surprise find! Gorgeous little cafe. Even the kids were happy with the veggie menu selection. Lovely home made food made right in front of us.
