What Al Escape2 doesn't like about The Ship Inn:
Thought would give another go here. Bad choice, the roast dinner was rubbish not worth over £13 . Frozen peas, raw is carrot s, think the chef had used yesterday's warmed up roasties. Parsnip s and cabbage nice. Mash tasted like out of a packet. And the dinner arrived with gravy all over it, Yorkshire was ok. There was a tiny gravy boat but no point after they had already smothered it. I'm not a lover of gravy , only... View all feedback. What jobL330RQ likes about The Ship Inn:
Love coming here, staff are very friendly especially Kirsty, Alex and Sharon. They were very knowledgeable about the menu and offered some great suggestions! We had a lovely time, not to mention the perfect baby Guinness we were made! Would recommend the smothered chicken burger, absolutely lovely! View all feedback.

The Wellington restaurant has experienced some disappointing changes with meals not meeting the expected standards. Dishes like roast dinner and festive feast were subpar, with issues like oversalted salmon, lack of stuffing, and drowned meals in gravy. However, some positive reviews mention accommodating staff and delicious offerings like smothered chicken burger and Philly steak sandwiches. The warm atmosphere, efficient service, and homemade desserts like apple crumble also receive high praise. Overall, while some patrons may have encountered setbacks, the restaurant still has its highlights worth trying for those looking for a pleasant dining experience.
