Had a simple birthday lunch and it was just perfect. Cosy place with really friendly staff who make you feel like nothing is too much trouble—always smiling and welcoming. Nice and calm atmosphere, which was exactly what we were after. Food was spot on. The beef burger was cooked really well, super juicy thanks to the locally sourced meat. Hake was lovely and perfectly tempura-ed 😆. The sauces were great too—each one had its own unique flavour.

Absolutely loved this place. Everything you need in one place. Full restaurant with a plentiful menu. Gift shop full to bursting with everything garlic plus loads more. The bonus, was the Christmas shop offering loads of lovely items. The woodland walks were ideal to keep our dog entertained. Also the dog was welcomed in every shop and restaurant which made the whole experience even morw enjoyable. Next time I'm back on the island I will be definitely taking time to visit.

I read all the reviews before visiting and it was a pleasure! The restaurant was fantastic! We pre booked and had the nicest garlicky lunch! Too bad for people who don't like garlic! The shop was lovely with so many garlic products. We bought different varieties of garlic and vampire slayer sauce which is v hot and garlicky. The farm walk wasn't good enough, it would be better to take a guided tour as v could not appreciate much walking by ourselves. We did not see any crops as well. But restaurant and shop is a fantastic visit if you are in the area. Wonderful experience! We ordered Garlic beer which can be avoided, it wasn't v garlicky but not tasty either. The ice cream everyone was raving about in the reviewes was okay not v garlicky either, it's more chocolaty. The Garlic scone was superb and the main course was all excellent!

I love the Garlic Farm. Nice walk around the area. Spend loads of money on garlic related bits. Have all the free samples you can eat. I mean try little bits of each. Took a massive amount of the vampire hot sauce. Way hotter than I expected. So that was fun.

🌟The Garlic Farm – Sandown, Isle of Wight🌟 A lovely stop! The shop is nicely kept – clean, well presented, and everything is laid out in a way that’s really appealing. There’s a great range of garlic-themed goodies, perfect for gifts or personal treats. I also bought a bottle of Cold Garlic Beer to try – an interesting one! To me, it tasted a bit like a watery Guinness. Not really to my taste, but I can see how some people might enjoy it for the novelty. Plenty of free parking made the visit easy and stress-free. Definitely worth a stop if you’re nearby!
