At The Lifeboat food is our speciality and we believe that we have created a perfect balance of contemporary cuisine from around the world.

Our extensive menu offers diners a wealth of options to suit all tastes and our children’s menu makes dining with the family a pleasure for everyone.

Whether you come by sea or land, a hearty welcome awaits. Wherever possible, we try to source our ingredients from our local suppliers.

Our indoor restaurant buzzes throughout the winter and on wetter days. In summer, our decking area is the perfect hangout for small groups or large parties

The Lifeboat overlooks the East Cowes Marina, and is a huge favourite of visiting yachtsmen in the summer, but also a family friendly home-from-home for locals too.

Our large outside decking area offers one of the best riverside dining experiences on the Island especially in the summer months.

Situated on the waterfront of the east side of the Medina River in East Cowes,
The Lifeboat is already one of the area’s most popular bars and restaurants.

We offer a warm welcome to locals and visitors alike – from land or water and we are just a few minutes walk from Cowes Floating Bridge.
