We usually try and visit here when on the IOW as the location and craft salads are really great! It's not easy to reach but a short walk is all it takes. We have seen it busy at lunch times and it's not possible to reserve a table so we try and get there early. A good range of freshly made sandwichs
A fantastic little spot to watch the waves crash onto the beach. The food was great and the staff were very helpful. Definitely recommend
What a location! Always recommend this place to anyone going to the island. The pint of prawns is a must have. Sit back and relax with a great view. Shame you can’t book a table. And you can work off your lunch walking back up the hill.
Absolutely beautiful place for a spot of lunch prawn and Crab salad s one of if not the most picturesque places on the island, no crab left when we went but depending on catch going back next year got to have Crab 😀 yessssss 2023 got it 👍👍👍
We loved it and will definitely visit again, the service was friendly, the venue was clean and offered a range of meals and beverages depending on the time you visit which was prepared with finesse and were of decent proportion, using fresh produce. The rock buns were homemade and delicious. Food wa
We found it by chance last year on our holiday. It was an amazing find, best crab sandwiches ever. Lovely staff. If you want the crab you have to get there early. Can't wait to go back next year.
A real good, busy cafe near the beach. The food was very good and the service was quick. Seating was limited, and it fills up quickly.
Toilets are situated about 50 m away, and we're reasonably clean.
A nice lunch after a pleasant walk from town along the coast walk!
Cracking place for fresh produce in Steephill Cove. Quite a rustic place with a decent selection of local produce!
This beach front cafe is a must for all visitors to Ventnor - to the Isle of Wight even. Great food, wonderful staff, and the view... I've been here on hot sunny days with calms seas and the sound of children playing in rock pools, and I've been here on stormy days with waves crashing again the cage
A wonderful little spot which used to be just your bog standard beachside cafe serving ice creams and bad coffee, which has now been transformed into a much more upmarket affair with excellent food and decent coffee. The menu could have been wider and the crab sandwich was quite simple for the price
Great location, busy little cove with a few different businesses offering meals, kayak hire, pasties and drinks.
The Beach Shack is great - excellent crab salad and sandwich. Generous portions. Efficient and pleasant service. Good choice of items on the menu. Lovely sitting out overlooking the bay.
A hidden gem of a place, you have to walk down a steep ramp or stairs so not suitable for those with access requirements and there is no nearby parking but for those who don't mind a walk it's a beautiful place to visit.
Wonderful place for lunch! Crab sandwiches were so fresh and delicious and staff were very friendly and attentive. Also made my little dog very welcome! Would definitely return, just can't beat that view!
What a stunning view! Located in a small, peaceful, picturesque cove (Steeple Hill). Friendly & attentive staff, great outdoor terrace. The perfect spot for a light lunch and/or a drink. The sandwiches are great and would recommend the homemade crab soup.
My wife and I had one of the best meals ever here, I had a full crab salad, and my wife had a half prawn salad, endless cups of tea from a teapot that never seemed to run out, lovely location, great service and great cost, never pressed to finish quickly, best kept secret on the Island.
Great beach side location at the far end of Steephill cove. Stunning views and friendly staff.
I love this little cove at steephill, what a great spot for a cafe, right by the sea, drinks and snacks are great, and good service.
Possibly the only Reason to struggle down to steep hill cove, although they don't do chevetts ( large prawns) ,
In all honesty there are more equal quality sea food restaurants at Bembridge (3) ,and without the hassle parking & heart busting struggle back up ,& beach isn't great compared to other is
