Open 9am to 5pm daily serving breakfast and lunch. Occasional evening openings and events - see our web calendar.
The Garlic Farm Restaurant serves high quality, garlic inspired dishes using locally sourced Island ingredients and our own home-reared beef and goat.
At The Garlic Farm Restaurant you can sample the best garlicky food in beautiful farm surroundings with friendly service, fully licensed bar and excellent views across the valley. There are indoor and outdoor seating areas, a large grass lawn and children's play park in view of the restaurant. Farm animals including our herd of Highland and hereford cows, horses, goats and chickens all roam in our certified organic farmland close by.
The Garlic Farm Restaurant has various awards including being 'Local Gem' in the 2024 Good Food Guide, winning best Gastronomic experience on the Isle of Wight in 2019, voted Best Restaurant 2020 in the Red Funnel My Isle of Wight Awards.
We are a third generation family-run farm that has grown from the love of garlic and the love of this beautiful place. We have a long-term interest in maintaining our environment, doing our best in our local community and making ethical choices.
Just to highlight two areas of impact, we rear 100% outdoor grass fed cattle and goat on our certified organic farmland which are supplied to our restaurant.
We have a Ridan Food Composter which turns our foodwaste into valuable compost for our soils.
