I have…read morehad the food a couple of times and it has been a cut above the normal 'dinged' meals you get in other establishments. Its not awfully busy but it has kept its charm when compared to other establishments, probably only a matter of time before its converted. Its a bit out of the way but worth a visit. Had another visit following the other review on Qype. have to say the food was really very good value. The pub has been refreshed and is now light an airy. Well worth a visit.

We stopped in Godshill for dinner after an afternoon sightseeing (Orborne house and grounds, and…read morethen the Brading Roman Villa), because I'd seen it recommended on Yelp. We parked down the street and walked here, and it was pretty busy around 4pm. I'd wanted to try some local cheeses while in the UK, so I ordered a cheese platter (6.95 pounds) as an appetizer and the Duck platter for my main. The cheese plate included crackers, some fruit paste, apple slices, and three local cheeses. I wasn't a huge fan of the crackers, which reminded me sort of like communion wafers in taste. The cheese was tasty, but I neglected to write down which cheeses we ate, so I can't really remember those. The Duck plate... Holy cow! Delicious! It came with gravy, on a bed of (red?) cabbage. I remember the way the salty, tender meat went together SO WELL with the gravy, combining the savory with the mild tang of the cabbage. As I was eating it, I was actually surprised by how flavorful the meal was. I can't say I eat duck a lot, but the way they'd prepared it really brought out the salty, savory taste. PROS: -Delicious, hearty pub fare. -Lots of locally sourced ingredients, from the meat and cheese, to the vegetables. -Cozy atmosphere, with a lot of exposed bricks and wood. CONS: -I wasn't a huge fan of the provided crackers... they reminded me of communion wafers, though I imagine there's some specific reason for that lack of flavor (to really highlight the taste of the cheese, perhaps?). -Small parking lot; I could see this place easily getting packed. THE VERDICT: This was the perfect place to stop for a meal after our long day. We arrived hungry, and left satisfied. The food proved to be delicious, simple fare, made from local ingredients and seasoned oh-so-perfectly. A fairly happening spot when we were there, I would definitely consider coming back here again if I was ever in the area.

After a day out sightseeing and driving around the countryside, we decided to stop into The…read moreTaverners to partake of happy hour. The interior is welcoming with a definite quaint, homelike feel, from the rustic beams to the uneven floor (fear not: cardboard coasters are provided with the express purpose of steadying any wobbly tables or errant chair legs). An interesting feature is the large blackboard on the wall indicating via colored dots what is at the peak of its taste and freshness (meat/fish/fowl) according to the season. There is a lot to see here, including pet-owners bringing their dogs to this pup-friendly pub (note: there is a container of dog biscuits at the ready). It seems like this pub also has an international following, as at one point I heard a group of tourists speaking English (but not quite) at a neighboring table. I later found out that they were visiting from Canada. Surprisingly for a pub, the wine list is comprehensive, even rivaling that of some restaurants. As happy hour was quickly morphing into the dinner hour, we decided to take a look at the menu. I appreciated that the offerings were accessible and local/seasonal in nature as it is often tricky navigating a menu in an unfamiliar country. After some deliberation, I decided on the dover sole (excellent and very moist with the bone still in) and my Aunt had the roast with seasonal vegetables. This was a leisurely meal, with none of the rushed feeling or hovering that often evidences itself in dining establishments. I wish that I could magically transport The Taverners to a corner near me so that it could become a new favorite watering hole, especially as the cold winter months approach. For now, I will just have to content myself with filing it away as a quality eating and drinking option for the next time I am in England.

We were in Southampton for one night prior to a cruise. When the business we were looking for in…read morethe same area was permanently closed, we stumbled on Vodka Revolution and decided to take a chance. The food was above average, but the drinks!! Wow! It reminded me of all things I could have possibly wanted in college. The vodka drink I had came with a flavor injector so you could flavor up your drink as much or as little as you liked. Also, the paddles of shots were very reasonably priced (compared to America!) and there were probably 30+ options. We had a Dr. Pepper-based shot and it was delicious! VR runs specials if you are a part of their membership club. We were there on a Wednesday and based on what we ordered, we would have spent more money if we didn't join. BONUS: The membership comes with a free pair of men's boxer-briefs?? If a good dinner is what you're after, I don't think VR will disappoint. However, just be aware that the whole concept, ambiance, and menus are designed around getting you and your party to drink! The concept and execution of this restaurant just reminds me of college, and for the nostalgia factor I give it 4-stars!

Went here for my father-in-law's birthday celebration and the place is pretty good. The food was…read morecooked well, and the service we received was quite pleasant. But, the starter I had was rather lacklustre - I had the crispy duck pancakes. The crispy duck was so overcooked that I couldn't bite into it, it was that tough. The entree (mains) was pretty good, for the most part. It was a Sunday Roast, so we had our choice of various types of proteins (the sides were the same for each dish though - mashed squash, parsnip, broccoli, boiled potatoes & a yorkshire pudding .. oh and an ocean of gravy) - pork, beef, chicken fish or vegetarian nut-loaf. I had the pork roast and though the meat was cooked quite well, I was very underwhelmed with the pork crackling provided. I had an itty-bitty square of pork crackling, it was so miniscule that it just wasn't worth it. Because we were a fairly largish group (10 adults, 2 kids) the service was a tad slow between courses. And for the mains the 2 kids were served last. Generally this isn't a good idea, as kids can get rather cranky if not fed, but thankfully the kids this time round were pretty good, nibbling other people's food until their actual meals came out. Overall the place is pretty good, price was very decent and the service was rather pleasant. I would like to come back one more time, not on a Sunday, to see what they are like. I really wanted their Beef Bourguignon, but sadly it was unavailable on a Sunday.

Chains (pub/restaurants) are generally pretty good in the States, generous portions, great service, not so this Beefeater. Service was dodgy, how is it some waiters have the ability to studiously ignore you? I've learned to just get up and go looking for your waiter, which really rattles them... The place was filthy, litter all over the floors, paper, bits of food, the table was sticky, and the room cold and drafty (due I suspect to over powered air-conditioning). They didn't have the beers they advertised in their menu. I ordered Salmon with broccoli, the salmon was okay if small, and the broccoli looked like three tiny pieces of limp grass. My wife ordered the same but without sauce and when I said I'd have her sauce, I though the waiter was going to have heart attack!! The place came across like a worn out service stop on the M4. Well the food was hot and it was cheap enough I suppose...
