Serving delicious pub food from an extensive menu with seasonal specials superb Sunday roasts and a range of fine wines and cask ales The Ship welcomes guests all day every day whatever the season.
Great premier inn/table table style pub. In fact it's a Greene King pub with their own real ales (of which I'm not a fan) but that didn't detract from the good experience. Service, quality, cleanliness all top notch.
very delicious food, great ambiance, staff are nice and professional
The Ship is a very old inn that serves both classic and modern pub grub. The staff are friendly and helpful, and they treat children with the same respect as adults. The food is well prepared and served at the right temperatures. Not a noisy place which is ideal when dining with children.
We stopped in for a Sunday afternoon pint, a very nice IPA. It’s a large, friendly, comfortable boozer
Absolutely beautiful bar and restaurant to start, food is lovely, ever so slightly overpriced but worth it for the food you recieve so I won't complain, staff and extremely friendly and welcoming hats off to them all, atmosphere is relaxing. They also play music in there. The meal I had was the gammon and it was beautifulđź‘Ś
