The Farm Shop No.8 Cafe - Isle of Wight

Sadly the cafe is currently closed due to Covid 19. The shop has some takeaway items but beware the sausage rolls. They're meat .

I had a really tasty pea soup here, full of flavor, with some fresh bread and a perfectly drizzled salad on the side. The vegan almond and marmalade cake was exquisite and there are other vegan cakes too! I washed it all down with some leaf tea. I think it's the only fully vegetarian establishment on the Isle of Wight. It’s above a fresh produce shop. I stopped here on a bike ride around the island, it's a just several miles from Ryde. It's actually on one of the excellent cycle routes around the island. The interior was really nicely done with modern and rustic features and the staff were very friendly. I will definitely go back when I have a chance. If you are on a bike, there is a window at the front, so you can lock it up across the road and keep an eye on it.

We called into the cafe on a wet and windy morning. We only wanted a snack and the lovely staff split a toasted sandwich and gave us both the excellent coleslaw and salad garnish. Carrot cake to follow and lovely cup of coffee.

Very friendly cafe up above the farm shop in Bembridge. Excellent Apple cinnamon flapjack! Nice pit stop whilst browsing around the village.

What a great find. We were doing the Downs Breezer Open Top Bus Tour and hopped off at Bembridge. The café above the health food shop was a delight. I had sticky gingerbread and my husband had a Halloumi and salad baguette and both were delicious, as was was the coffee. Very friendly staff. Lovely decor. Highly recommend.
