The Crab and Lobster, Bembridge

Four of us visited this pub last week. Advertised as a good menu with lots of pub favourites but mainly seafood. Nice setting and views but very busy - best to book a table. Quite a long wait after ordering. When the starters came only two arrived and the other two took ages (we had to chase them up). The first had finished theirs before the second two arrived. Then all at once we had the main courses too - table not cleared and two of us still eating starters. Prices average and food nice but service awful. No apology or offer of a free drink to compensate. Certainly would not return. Sad to say we were not the only unhappy customers that night - at least two other tables having problems.
