One of my favourite beach cafes! Lovely food and always great service. Also if you’re a fan of banana bread you need to try it at Fins, it’s to die for!

Had breakfast here and it was pretty good! The views of the beach are really nice and the staff was nice as well. We had the loaded hashbrowns and fins mcroll sandwich, both were tasty.

Great menu, took me forever to choose what I wanted and even came back a second day so I could try something different.My son had the biscoff pancakes (which we tried and they were stunning!) I had the pesto and mushroom on sourdough one day 10/10 and then I had the vegetarian breakfast the next day, this kept me full the entire day. My husband had the loaded hash browns with added bacon. The bacon looked really good.We were all very happy definitely recommend a visit.

Amazing cafe just by the beach with reasonably priced food and coffee. We had amazing breakfast, even the weather cannot spoil the experience, as the cafe has a roofed garden to sit with open sea view. Had açai breakfast bowl and it is amazing, especially on a hot summer day it’s like having healthy ice cream for brekkie loaded hash browns were awesome! Same comes to the drinks, chai tea latte and biscoff latte were awesome! Would definitely recommend to visit while you on Isle on Wight!

Came across this place on social media and managed to fit it in to our short trip to the island.It is located right on the beach front a short walk from paid parking on the Esplanade. It does appear to get get quite busy so we were lucky to snag one of only a couple of free tables. The sun was out, the tide was slowly coming in, it was a beautiful setting.The food was delicious - I went for the Fin McRoll which was a million times tastier then the muffin from the big chain. Coffee was delicious too. Partner had the loaded hash browns which again was too notch as well as a smoothie which was vibrant and refreshing.If we were local we'd be here all yhe time. Would definitely recommend.

During half term, we rented a house nearby and made a point to walk to this café for breakfast after seeing rave reviews about the beautifully presented food and coffee. After a filling meal, we enjoyed a lovely walk along the beach. This place did not disappoint—the location is fantastic, and the food was impressively artistic and beautifully served. The coffee mugs and cups had a refined, upscale feel. A wonderful little find! While it’s not the cheapest spot, the quality makes it well worth it.
