Thompson's - Isle of Wight

Having received a most generous birthday gift of a Thompson 's Voucher , my wife and I finally plucked up the courage to venture into the zenith of IoW dining experiences we were not disappointed! Magnificence in every aspect. A classy mix of contemporary classic styles within the four walls. I dared not ask for the cutlery! only to find a set in my own personal drawer at the table. As a bit of a bread connoisseur , I was amazed at the quality of our starter warm olives in olive oil and our own small loaf each. A sourdough and a rosemary focaccia, both made on site. Heavenly! A gorgeous appetiser dish followed, I won 't spoil it for anyone by revealing what it was. I then had the Cod whilst Mrs F had the Risotto. This was followed by another gorgeous mini appetiser, then the the most delicious dark chocolate and cherry dessert. People think say it 's expensive in here but the value for money is excellent. So much effort goes into the food preparation which is all done on site. Did not have wine, just sparkling water because of driving home. To sum up, do not hesitate to visit here, experience the highest possible quality of food preparation. A must for anyone who likes a classic dining experience.

Hubby decided to book a date night and wow what an experience! The welcome and hospitality was great. The food was amazing the chef brought each dish to the table and talk through it x the whole restaurant was beautiful and listening to the story’s behind the restaurant was so lovely to hear x can’t wait to visit again, thank you to all the staff and chefs

We enjoyed a three-course lunch with champagne and wine. The food and service were outstanding and we were so pleased that they welcomed us with our dog!

An absolute gem of a find….one of the best Sunday lunches we have ever had….the whole experience was first class from start to finish…staff..food service second to none…will definitely be back if you haven’t been its a must
