very accommodating - Edit
Very extensive vegan menu that I believe changes regularly. I had the mushroom and stuffing filo parcel with mash and it was delicious. Staff were very attentive.

Yummy Vegan Food! - Edit
A really friendly restaurant with a homely atmosphere. I was overwhelmed by a choice of 4 vegan starters and 4 vegan mains - having a choice seems rare for vegans! They were even happy to adapt my main course to ensure that it didn't have any sugar or alcohol (because I'm super awkward!) Couldnt recommend it enough, very reasonably priced too. I just wish it was closer to home as we were only on The Isle of Wight for a day!
Pros: Yummy Vegan Food, Lovely Atmosphere, Friendly Staff

Worth a visit - Edit
This is a nice pub in the pretty village of Godshill. It has a separate vegan menu with a good choice of starters and mains and a couple of desserts. I had a delicious meal of mushroom and sage filo parcel on a bed of creamy mashed potato, surrounded by wild mushrooms in a port jus - yum!
Staff were pleasant and helpful, prices are reasonable and the quality of the cooking was good.
Pros: Separate vegan menu, Tasty food, Helpful staff
Cons: Could do with more dessert options
