    Great video! Thank you for the recommendations. We visited The Isle Of Man last year a few weeks after the TT and we were blown away by the beauty of this Island. We are a large family (6 children) and stayed in Glen Helen- Glamping site. The Glen Rhenass waterfall was beautiful. Peel was another favourite, we spent all day on the beach and finished the day with a hearty pub dinner at the Marina Hotel. Great portion sizes, always a win for a large family. We visited some of the places you have listed but, will def see the rest next time. We have documented our stay on our channel too. We LOVED The Lodge At Glen Helen. Great location and the food was amazing. We met many bikers during our stay and families too. The Lodge Cafe are famous for the legendary burgers. We had great time and can't wait to visit again.

      Chill lol, you're both kind of at fault. Yes its the café at the south of the Island that overlooks the Calf of Man, but you made it sound like it was a café ON the Calf of Man, which caused the confusion for 99aadsad99. And yeah, its called The Sound Cafe - 'The Sound' is what that area is called.

      Behave, best cafe, in the UK, 😆 where’s the tinned tomatoes on the breakfast? The one you pay £16 for with a cup of tea? And then they want to put 10 or 20% on top as a discretionary fuel charge this year😂😂😂 that’s £18 plus for a breakfast with a raw tomato ffs.
      You wanna get out more boss if you think that’s the best cafe in the uk😂 it’s overpriced, contentious, and the queenies are nowhere near as good as in Peels pubs

    Just a suggestion, but I think most people associate cafes with food. It would have been nice if you'd shown more.
    I get that bike parking is important to you, but I'm sure that people will want to eat as well.

    The sound cafe..... £13.50 for a breakfast with a discretionary “ fuel” surcharge added this year? That’s best part of £18 for a breakfast and a cup of tea! Ridiculous. And they don even do tinned tomatoes, just a half of a so called grilled cold one.

      How is featuring a list of the top ten most popular motorcycle-friendly cafes on the Isle of Man an advert for Bennetts? We produced the film as part of our Motorcycle Island series to demonstrate how fabulous the Isle of Man is for motorcyclists regardless of the TT/Manx GP! Of course we used the opinions of our customers/members who live on the Island, which in turn allows us to promote our offering. Isn't that why every single person posting on RUclips does what they do?

    • @stephenharding3779
      @stephenharding3779 2 года назад +4

      I think most people involved only want to show the Island at its best to others and to stimulate tourism. As a person interviewed I can endorse the fact that
      those were my reasons for being involved….to let others know…..and if Bennett’s get some customers as a result then good on them …they spent the money to do the production and broadcast it to people throughout the U.K. and beyond…..so like and share !
