Great for scenic views

We at Off The Rails pride ourselves on being one of the most unique places to eat and drink on the Isle of Wight; set along the old railway line (“Causeway") in Yarmouth’s former train station, the restaurant overlooks the outstanding natural beauty of the Yarmouth Marshes and Mill Copse. There is no other view like ours in Yarmouth. Being located along the Causeway makes it the perfect pitstop for walkers, cyclists, and those visiting the Isle of Wight as the restaurant is just a 5-minute stroll from the Yarmouth Wightlink Ferry terminal.

We openly welcome dogs in our restaurant and offer an extensive dog menu, which includes a range of dry meals, treats, and even dog-friendly ice cream to keep them cool during the summer months.

Unfortunately, when we arrived for our booking at 2.00 they had run out of the Sunday Roast a it is apparently on a first come first serve basis. We decided to leave as this is what we had come for and it was really disappointing. I appreciate the waitress tried to convey this and I felt sorry for her and she was not supported by the Manager who could have encouraged us to stay by offering an alternative we were just given menus and no one came to the table to follow up. We had travelled a long way and it was also for my husbands birthday lunch.

The most amazing restaurant an absolute must for a meal during a trip to the island. A inventive and varied menu with a wide range of choices. Each dish is put together with care using high quality ingredients. The quirky decor creates a wonderful atmosphere and the staff are so friendly. A wonderfully dog friendly venue - complete with doggie menu!

This is a must café for any railway enthusiast. The team has truly honoured the old station building and decorated the café with wonderful railway artefacts and memorabilia. Great atmosphere and lovely, friendly service.

Absolutely brilliant location and food was devine, excellent presentation, great options and selection of ingredients. The pork belly roast was super tasty and a lot better than could be imagined with great desserts. Everyone on the table enjoyed the food and all said they would come back again another day. Good portions too. The only issue we had was the loos. They are tucked away in the corner of the restaurant past dinner guests and single rooms. This place is basically fully booked a lot so it's busy and really needs more toilets available and the flush is off a septic tank and not the most efficient so a visit can be unpleasant.
