A vibrant new restaurant has been launched
in East Cowes, by owners with a wellestablished background in London as well as
on the Island.

reminiscent of a trendy London eaterie,
stylishly modern with a twist. You’ll see from
the minute you walk into this welcoming
restaurant that a great deal of thought and
planning has gone into the project to ensure
its success.
The owners have scoured Europe looking
for unusual fittings, including the two huge
feature lights that were acquired from
from an old railway station. The tables
and chairs have been made especially for
this restaurant, with the bases ingeniously
crafted from old train brake drums, and solid
hand-made wooden tops.
Also interesting are the uniquely

and drinks – a really quirky feature.
The Prego menu is based on pizza and
pasta, with one main special dish prepared
daily, which offers enough choice for even
the fussiest of diners. Prego is open from
10:00am right through to 9:30pm, (Friday

days a week and covering their whole menu.
