Shanklin Bay, Isle of Wight — Where Sea and Hearth Meet

The Chine Inn Café & Kitchen

Tucked where the chine meets the sea, The Chine Inn has welcomed travellers, fishermen, and poets for centuries.
Every dish honours the local harvest — from shore and soil to hearth and hand — all prepared with care, and as far as possible, locally sourced.
Sit by the fire, watch the tides, and taste the history that endures in these walls.
