We aren’t perfect but here are some of the lovely reviews we have received over the years…
“Hadn’t been here for several years but still very good. Simple but good menu choices. All cooked freshly and served very hot. As before, the portions are huge! You don’t need a starter!”
Peter – April 2024
“Fab as always. Great food, great friendly service, lovely sea views.”
Julie – March 2024
“Have eaten here several times in recent months and always been pleased. Tonight’s meal was delicious and outstanding value for money. A special Friday offer of fish and chips with a bottle of wine, only £30 for two. Everything was good but the fish, with its thin crispy batter, was superb. Two members of our group had a crema Catalan which they also enjoyed. We eat out frequently in local pubs and restaurants- at the moment I would judge Pebbles to be by far the best.”

“Lovely reliable little bistro overlooking the sea. The food is so well cooked and very generous in portion size. Excellent, friendly service. Best Fish’n’Chips and Scampi around and there are also other mostly fish dishes. Fresh salads with honey & mustard dressing and homemade coleslaw.”

“We took family to Pebbles Fish and Wine Bar for dinner 2 weeks ago. We had not seen them for over a year, for obvious reasons. The venue was excellent, the food was superb and the staff, all though rushed of their feet, were brilliant. Well done to you all for making a special meal really special.”

“10 of us visited for a Christmas lunch a couple of days ago, couldn’t have had a better reception or service. Excellent atmosphere and food and they do not scrimp on portion size at this restaurant. More than happy to recommend.”
Ray – TripAdvisor Review – December 2019
“What a lovely little restaurant with beautiful views of the beach – shame it was raining by the time we had eaten. The food was freshly cooked & delicious with very generous portions, wish I had not ordered jumbo prawns to start as the sea bass fillets were very filling!”
TripAdvisor Review – January 2019
“A rainswept view of the sea but food worthy of a beach restaurant anywhere. The calamari I had as a starter were the best I’ve had outside Greece and the mussels my partner and I had for our mains were plump and gorgeous. My step-mum in her 80s enjoyed prawn cocktail and scampi and chips. I remember this years ago as a beach cafe and ice cream kiosk but now a really smart restaurant and wine bar with friendly service and generous portions.”
TripAdvisor Review – April 2018
“I have never had such a fabulous BBQ’d ribs! My wife was a bit disappointed at the fact that the Smokies were not available. Perhaps the sailors off the American aircraft carrier in the bay had eaten them all. The replacement was terrific she informed me. Service was impeccable and cheerful. There was a good wine list as well. The ambiance was good and NO loud music. We could hear what we were saying to one another. It would have been lovely to have eaten out side but it was the wettest August day on record!! I think the IOW was out there somewhere.”
TripAdvisor Review – August 2017
“Visited Pebbles with 21 family members and the service and food was amazing. They catered for everyone in the group from an 86 year old to an infant. The food was great quality and served all at the same time which we appreciated as we were such a large group. We only ate a main meal on this occasion so we took a smaller group back the next week for tapas and dessert! On both visits we felt very welcome, Pebbles is now on my list of favourite restaurants in the area.”
TripAdvisor Review – Visited December 2016
“We celebrated my mum’s 80th birthday at Pebbles last night. We had the whole restaurant to ourselves and the age range was 20 – 80+ years! Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the evening, the food was fabulous and PLENTY of it! The choice of menu was perfect, the staff were friendly, helpful and super-efficient! The restaurant is nicely decorated and very clean. All in all no complaints at all – from the start of organising several weeks ago to the end of the party! Forty people left the restaurant very happy and with extremely full tummies!! Thank you Pebbles!”
TripAdvisor Review – January 2015
“Visited this restaurant for Mother’s Day, had a table for 8, lovely views and setting, had to share a starter between two as they were so large if I had eaten this by myself I would not of managed to eat my main meal, food very tasty, fresh veg used, lovely and hot ,well presented by very friendly and helpful staff, and good selection of wine, parking was easy as there is a public car park next to it.”
TripAdvisor Review – March 2014
“I thought this restaurant was very good quality food and excellent value for money with lovely staff. It has great views across the Solent. I would definitely recommend a visit.”
Nichola – Trip Advisor Review – August 2013
“We have just enjoyed another superb family meal at Pebbles and the food, staff and wine were great as always. My Breaded Brie starter was absolutely lovely and the dinner portions were excellent, there’s no fear of going hungry here! So nice to enjoy hearty, tasty food that actually fills you up and with a lovely view too.”
