The Volunteer pub, Ventnor, Isle of Wight

The Volunteer is to be found in Ventnor and is the smallest pub on the Isle of Wight.  It is a very good example of what pubs used to be like - a place to enjoy a good quality pint and a conversation without the modern day distractions of TVs, fruit machines and the like.  Built in 1866, the first license was applied for in 1871 when a Cornelius Giles started selling beer to his neighbours.  Today we are recognised by CAMRA and have received many local pub of the year awards. We are one of the few venues where the traditional Isle of Wight game, 'rings', is still played.  We have a good local regulars clientele and attract a fair number of visitors who are in the know. Make sure you, too, visit us next time you come over from the mainland.  This is a treat not to be missed!

When you visit the pub please let the staff know you have seen it on Pub Explorer.
