A. A. Gill, Ryde:
In last week's food review by Matt and Cat, of the Tide Mill pub , their review was their worst review yet and totally unfounded.
Two stars was ridiculous, the newly renovated pub (formerly the Sloop Inn in Wootton creek) serves without question the best Sunday roast on the Island at under £20 including a beer!
It’s an “all you can eat” carvery except the meat which is £3 in addition should you want to pig out.

The vegetables are fresh and not overcooked.
Matt and Cat obviously had the remains of the cauliflower cheese. They could have requested a fresh serving which they are happy to do.
My go-to Sunday lunch was the now closed Heron in Ryde. The Tide Mill has replaced the Heron with flying colours.
After five visits I felt the record should be set straight on the food.
I give it five stars, for the best value on the Island.
