What glassmen007 likes about Ship Inn:
As part of our September holiday we went to the Ship for our Sunday evening meal. Service was good but failed to get correct items twice and had to change these. Food was good and tasty and good for the cost Good ales on offer which is always a bonus. Overall solid nothing outstanding View all feedback. What Baby04manor doesn't like about Ship Inn:
Terrible service, terrible food. Ordered starters, initially brought out 1 item that was wrong. Had to wait as no cutlery was given either. Pigeon was on special board, tiny portion and tough as leather ! Soup was cold. Finished and waiter asked if we wanted to see pudding menu ?! Both had steaks, edible but chewy. Plates were really hot but cooked tomatoes were stone cold. Not an enjoyable evening and definitely not... View all feedback.

The Ship in Porlock has been a long-standing favorite for many visitors, offering good quality food and hearty breakfasts for those staying at the pub. However, recent experiences have been disappointing for some, with complaints about portion sizes and quality of dishes. Despite this, the pub continues to receive praise for its friendly service, knowledgeable staff, and great selection of local beers and ciders. The welcoming atmosphere, dog-friendly policy, and a variety of menu options make it a popular choice among both locals and tourists. Overall, The Ship remains a solid option for a meal or drink in Porlock, though booking in advance is recommended to secure a table at this busy establishment.

Once again, poor Qype is having a bit of a wrestle with the vagaries of the Ordnance Survey.
