(1580)

Situated on the waterfront of The Medina in East Cowes, The Lifeboat is already one of the areas most popular bars & restaurants and we welcome locals and visitors alike, either by water or land. A short hop across the river in Sally's water taxis or by car from East Cowes, The Lifeboat stand proudly over East Cowes Marina and is not only a huge favourite of visiting yachtsmen in the summer, but also a family friendly home from home for locals too. In the summer our large outside patio area owns one of the best dining views in the river and in Winter months our warm and inviting decor together with regular quiz nights and special offers, ensure that we are busy all year round. We have also been known to cater for numerous wedding receptions and to that end or if you would like more information, please contact us for details.
