TASTE 86 LTD - (Near Hampshire, london)

ashley W Superb. We have spent the best part of a week in The Met. From sitting outside in the sun drinking beers, cocktails and wines through to coffees ice creams and dinners. The food has been amazing. The variety really thoughtful and the flavours really enjoyable. We have had 3 dinners here and they have all been good (see pictures) the deserts were great too. Salted caramel espresso martinis and the Ales sitting outside people watching all day then at 6pm inside for dinner. The staff are amazing and helpful friendly chatty and knowledgable. A true gem down on the beach front. Really enjoyable inside and out. A must if down in Ventnor either for a quick drink or dinner. Oh true olives too.

Phil B I’m not a frequent visitor to this warm and friendly establishment. I’m from far across the water, but it does make a great excuse to go boating in the colder (and wetter) weather. The most perfect comfort breakfast with all the major food groups represented: tea, black pudding, eggs and sausage to name but a few. The Bonanza Breakfast - heartily recommended. The world rushes around with lattes held outstretched in front of them like a 21st century shield warding off the dangerous phone holders. Step into Eegon’s and you are removed from that world in an instant. It is relaxing, warm of welcome and just a lovely place to be. Perhaps I should keep that to myself? No, it needs to be frequented and appreciated for what it is. Try it, you will most certainly love it.

Clive Jones Always a friendly welcome. The food is always top drawer and whilst not always the cheapest in town, it is definitely value for money. You get what you pay for.

Jake B Amazing food, friendly service, beach view. What more can you ask for?

Elizabeth Chapman We visited this restaurant just before Christmas and last Friday 20th February. We have friends who live nearby. The food is delicious, service very good and atmosphere too. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Mrs. John Steep hill cove is one of my favourite places. The tide was in when we visited so a lot of the tables couldn’t be used but the staff were very helpful and despite of some very rude customers, they were polite and efficient. The crab sandwich was very nice and so was the tea but the location is perfect.
