What Apeksha Adhikari doesn't like about Ship Inn:
We were staying at the neighbouring Premier Inn and wanted something to eat. Breakfast had apparently finished, so we thought about their brunch menu, only to be told that that had finished too, so lunch it had to be. They then looked to see if they had an empty table we were the only people in the place and concluded that the restaurant was full. but we could have a table in the bar! By the time we left, there were... View all feedback. What Andrew likes about Ship Inn:
Really enjoyed the Garden Vegetable Burger which made a nice change from the usual run of the mill vegeburgers. Very pleased that the Garden Plot Medley could be served with GF bread. Service from Ellie-May was first-rate. View all feedback.

Listed building, huge inside, food was of high standard, I had fish and chips, big portion. Service was as expected not too intrusive, just right.

The Ship Inn offers a mixed dining experience with some guests enjoying friendly service and delicious meals, while others encounter unfriendly staff and expensive prices. The historic interior is charming, with clean facilities and a welcoming atmosphere. Some meals were well-cooked, although a few dishes fell short. Despite some inconsistencies, many guests found their visit to be enjoyable and worth a return trip. With options from brunch to dinner, The Ship Inn caters to different tastes at varying price points. Overall, a visit to this pub may prove to be a delightful experience for those willing to give it a try.
