Old Royal Ship Inn in Wiltshire

Have been visiting for meals for over 50 years and have seen the building grow . This speaks for its self every visit has been EXCELLENT . Chris Bissix PS dogs are always welcome .

I don't usually write reviews but I felt I wanted to say that the beef lasagna with salad and garlic bread I had tonight was the best I've ever had in a pub. Good value and lovely staff. We will be back.

We often go to this pub for a drink or lunch as the food is always top quality and the staff are always lovely! It’s also one of the best roast dinners around! Always great for a full family dinner or just a few pints with friends!

17 cyclists stopped here for a lunch break, and we were early welcomed, quickly served, and made to feel at home. The food was great too, with lovely cake and massive sandwiches! Highly reccomended.

We visited as we were staying in the village. Each time we went in the welcome from all of the girls was very warm and helpful. They offer a wide range of food available all day, which suited us as we like to eat early. We visited for both dinner and breakfast. The food is well presented and delicious. They are very dog friendly with the added bonus of a little shop inside. A pub worth travelling to visit.

A great pub and a warm welcome received from the locals and the fabulous staff. Thoroughly enjoyed three good meals here during a mini-break with my mum.

I don’t give negative reviews usually but felt the necessity to just write as this establishment has no email address on its website to keep my opinion within the business and if I telephoned I may not get to the powers above. Really nice location (we live 23 miles away ) recommend by a friend . The staff were faultless, the food acceptable but not outstanding. But when the bill came it was £5.60 for a large lime and soda. That is ridiculous- I questioned it with our delightful waitress and she apologised and said it was because it was 2xbottles and 2x lime . Maybe but come on you are so organised - get some soda large bottles in or a siphoned soda and be competitive. My lime and soda was just 40p less than my husbands pint of Guinness. That’s isn’t right - I was driving and lime and soda is the drink I enjoy - but .,,,,, your pricing is ridiculous-sorry to moan.

What an amazing pub, such friendly and welcoming staff and an unbelievable choice on the menu plus specials - so much to choose from, very hard decisions! Visiting an event nearby so a long journey for us to get there, 3 hours drive and didn't arrive til 2pm but nothing was off the menu or sold out. Absolutely fantastic food, generous portions and just wish we lived nearer as would be visiting on a very regular basis.

We were staying in the area and went for a walk for the day, stopping off here for lunch. The food and service were very good, the drinks were good, and it did what we needed for the day. However, it's a little pricey, and the sign on the door that muddy boots weren't welcome did put a dent in the experience.

Sixteen of us had a prearranged lunch after a 6 mile walk with our Walking Group. Large Pub consisting of old and modern decor which blends well. A lovely setting in this picturesque village with beautiful surrounding area. Our Reserved table was in a private area and the food was served promptly and very efficiently. I had ham, egg and chips with real thick sliced super quality meat. My wife had a special chicken dish which got a 10/10 vote. Everyone I spoke to complimented the Pub on the range and quality of the food. Well done to all the Staff who had a number of large and small parties to deal with on a busy Friday lunchtime.

Very friendly and efficient staff. Food was delicious and reasonably priced. Amazed how quickly the food was served since the restaurant was completely full (Mother’s Day).

Our family of four thoroughly enjoyed an outstanding Sunday lunch at the Old Royal Ship today. We have enjoyed excellent meals there before but never Sunday lunch. Our meal was almond as guests as my wife’s cooking - which is a very high bar indeed! The meat was full of flavour and plentiful, the vegetables cooked to perfection and I am told that the desert of crumble was some of the best ever (I was too replete to enjoy desert!). As always, the staff were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable which was especially impressive as the restaurant was full! I cannot recommend highly enough!

We have recently moved into the area and quickly discovered the The Old Royal Ship. Each time we have visited there has been a warm and friendly greeting. The pub is light and airy with plenty of space around the tables. Friendly and efficient service. A good wine list. A regular menu and a specials board. Today my wife had hake with a herb crust with vegetables and potatoes. I had a chicken bacon Caesar salad. Both were prepared to order and were absolutely delicious. Followed this up with a good coffee and had a good chat with mein host on leaving.

We have enjoyed 8 visits for lunch. We Brought 8 more ( ping pong 10 🏓) here for lunch and all of us really enjoyed a varied menu . Kelly and forgot her name were pleasant as usual and made our visit fun and warm. I had the steak and ale pie 👍👍. Ping pong 10 have been to a load of eateries. This was the best 💕

Lovely friendly atmosphere and proper pub grub. Friendly and helpful staff. The banoffee pie is the best thing ever!

Our walking group had lunch together yesterday and I have to say how fabulous it was. There were 33 of us so we ordered in advance. The food was delicious and the staff friendly and efficient. Nothing was too much trouble. A brilliant place for a celebratory gathering.

We went to this pub for a family birthday and all chose the roast dinners. My father-in-law has terminal brain cancer and wanted to make it a special experience for his wife's birthday, well we should not have bothered ! First thing was we booked for 12.30 and got our meals at 1.40 then my nephew got a long human hair all over his dinner and the staff didn't even offer to change the meal! The roast potatoes weren't even cooked and the vegetables were dry, the beef was cold . When my father in law complained the manageress was completely uncaring though she didn't charge us for the meal, it was as if it was a common experience. It's also not particularly disabled friendly Somewhere we won't be going again and definitely don't recommend

Yet again we had an excellent lunch with family. Our half American grandson summed it up - American quantity with British quality! The seam bream was outstanding - but so were the ham and eggs and Cajun chicken burger. Only our grandson had room for pudding but he thoroughly enjoyed his apple and berries crumble with ice cream and custard! The staff were friendly, helpful and professional despite being very busy. We could not have enjoyed ourselves more!

First visit, very friendly and obliging staff. Lovely menu with plenty of choice plus a big specials board. Tasty big portions with homemade choices. Highly recommended

This was a great halfway point for my sister to meet me & mum. I really liked the overall place and the staff were particular friendly however the food was rather disappointing although maybe it was just bad food choices. I had the doorstep tuna/red onion mayo sandwich with chips - bread was rather stale. red onion was not mixed in with the tuna & chips were nothing special. Sister had burger & french fries and she said it was unimpressive. Mum had the salmon & prawns starter which looked very good although I can't comment on quality. Would I consider coming here again? that is a possibility if we had to meet up halfway again, although I would make better choices.

We chose the Royal Ship Inn as we were staying in a hotel nearby and the reviews were positive. We were not disappointed, even though we made no reservation, the lovely waitress found us a table. The food was delicious, we both had something off the special board, there was a bit of a wait as they were busy, but the waitress who served was very attentive. The Inn itself has a nice cosy vibe. All the staff were friendly and welcoming, if we are the area we will definitely be returning.

Called in twice while visiting our son , very good food , helpful and friendly staff . Would highly recommend for a meal . 😊

We found the Old Royal Ship Inn on Tripadvisor and found the reviews, although excellent, underestimated the outstanding meal that my wife and I had there this evening. The food was fresh, delicious and of highest quality - and decent quantities! The service was friendly and professional and we were made very welcome. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and we shall certainly return to try some of the other dishes (which we saw being delivered to other tables!).

We are a casual group (in this instance 11 of us) of not so young males looking for a comfortable venue to meet up for good!!! conversation over a pint and lunch. And this just what you get from the Old Royal Ship plus some friendly staff and chefs who know how to produce good pub food. We preordered our meals and on arrival were served with drinks that we took to our prepared table. 4 tables together forming a square that allowed us all to speak and hear one another quite well (hearing aids adjusted as appropriate!!) We deliberately arranged to be at our table ahead of the time that lunch had been ordered, catchup chat time! So our meals were delivered precisely when expected....how chefs manage that is beyond me!! The hubbub of chatter was replaced by the clatter of cutlery on crockery . My vegetable lasagna, salad and garlic bread was very tasty!!

Food was outstanding, well worth the money... went for my Mum's Birthday she really liked it... nothing pretentious about the place or the people... dog friendly as well as they have seated area for dog lovers inside so your pouch can dine with you without upsetting anyone. A good range of drinks.. I did knock one star off but only due to wait time at start but as it was Easter w/e it was busy.. My sister who lives locally said they will definitely be back as I will when we're back up to visit

Mistakes happen and a true test of service is how they're dealt with. Unusually, I had to send back overcooked food. The always-friendly staff apologised, the dish was replaced, nicely presented, and a couple of drinks were deducted from the bill. That's how it's done. And this remains my favourite local restaurant.

4 Mothers, 2 Grandmothers and a Great grandmother made up our 'Mothers Day' lunch so it was quite a crowd with partners and children of a range of ages. The Old Royal Ship is popular so on this special occasion it was not surprising that it was busy. But did this phase the hard working staff? Not a bit they were excellent...as was the food. Sunday lunch is an established favourite of this family. 2 of us went 'off piste' to the specials board on this occasion and were not disappointed. Baked vegetables tart...delicious!! Watching Great Grandchildren completely consume chocolate cheesecake and ice cream after 'Sunday lunch' was amazing. Of course we will be back again. No brainer!! (just to be cool)

Food was lovely and a wide choice of options but we waited over an hour for our meal. As we had a train to catch we didn’t sample deserts. Would recommend for the food wholeheartedly.

We travelled out to Luckington for lunch on the recommendation of friends and certainly weren't disappointed. Everything at The Old Royal Ship Inn was first class - the welcome, service, wines, lunch and toilet facilities for anyone with disabilities.

What a lovely pub restaurant there is even a shop.. I had been told many times but today I went. Thank you the food and staff where the best you can find

It’s been a while since we have been able to walk into a pub, sit inside, and dine! For us this was almost exactly 7 months since we were last able to do that. We are still being wary; we take precautions with masks and hand-cleanser. We also visited this pleasant pub at lunchtime on a weekday, rather than on an evening or weekend when it might be heaving with clientele.We had booked a week or so before: after driving past the pub when it was operating a takeaway service only. We resolved to visit when we could dine-in. So, we were expecting to visit what is a large and attractive Wiltshire village on a sunny day in late May, and have a spot of lunch; but sadly the weather had other ideas. The rain and strong wind did little to dampen our spirits though; it was good to be dining out, but in, as it were.We were welcomed by a cheery lady who showed us to our pre-booked table, we were glad to note that the pub was quite busy (suggesting decent fare). My partner decided on a warming coffee and I had tap-water. The large coffee, plus water jug and menus arrived quickly. The coffee was apparently very good and strong, and much enjoyed whilst studying the reasonably broad menu. We considered fish and chips, steak, and the burgers (the chicken variety of burger sounded more appealing than the beef to me, as I do like Cajun flavours). I prefer a starter and main whare as my partner prefers a main and dessert, and our choices reflected those preferences. With fish and chips, some restaurants do not use skinned fish and this changes the flavour and convenience factor of the meal. Sadly, the ORS use skin-on fish so my partner opted for scampi. I completed the homage to 70’s Berni Inns with a rump steak, but only after deciding on another old 70’s favourite, the deep-fried whitebait. Would you believe that back in 1973 an 8oz rump steak meal at a Berni Inn was 77p!!!My whitebait soon arrived, perfectly fried and dusted with paprika; it was good fish but the tartare, although having a reasonable unfussy taste, was so thick as to be very difficult to spread onto the delicate little fish. Dipping the fish into the pot of tartare was a no-no, and besides there was enough tartare for my partner’s scampi (providing it was not contaminated by whitebait remnants). The whitebait was accompanied by a generous serving of quite soft wholemeal bread, but with a butter pat that was far too cold to successfully spread onto the bread. There was a small attractive salad (sadly with AGP’s) and a lemon slice.AWP - Awful Green Peppers: vile-flavoured unripe capsicum peppers, that would have turned into beautifully sweet red capsicum peppers. WHY?!When our mains arrived I could immediately see, and soon confirmed that, I had made a terrible mistake by choosing a selection of vegetables to accompany my steak. The cabbage was overcooked and tasteless, the carrots were overcooked and had no ‘bite’ plus the taste was somewhat diminished, the broccoli was overcooked and practically tasteless, and the cauliflower was one stage away from being soup. The tomatoes were the large variety that I just do not care for, as compared with small cherry tomatoes. The latter are sweet, whereas large tomatoes are just not at all sweet. Despite the tomatoes being well cooked, hot and well presented, as they were on this occasion, they are just ‘not my bag’. I will not criticise here because other people like them (and they are welcome to my share … in perpetuity).The rest of the meal was very good, the medium ‘pink-no-blood’ steak was perfectly cooked: very juicy and tasty (i.e. unlike cheap supermarket steaks at £3-7 which are invariably tender but totally tasteless). A tiny bit of gristle was soon dealt with, and although a tad tough to cut, the steak was most enjoyable. As I ate my meal, the steak became increasingly tender, so I guess the steak had been served straight from the griddle pan, rather than having been allowed to rest (as we do at home). The chips were dry, not greasy, but on the edge of being overcooked (especially those with a smaller section), but they were very near perfect; especially with the good quality malt vinegar provided. The mushrooms were absolutely perfect.My partner’s scampi was excellent and cooked to perfection. The batter was light and crispy, the scampi was moist, hot and delicately tasty. The side salad was good: I noted the inclusion of cherry tomatoes and wondered if the chef had ever considered these as a replacement for the big tomatoes as served with the steak? My partner did use the remainder of the tartare with her scampi, and concurred that the texture made things “more difficult”.Mains finished, and I was full, and even after her single course my partner had no room for duff (a generic term for dessert, used extensively in Yorkshire). So dining was complete and we waited 5 minutes or so for our waitress to visit us during her (up to now) frequent reconnoitres to see if a customer was in need of service.On the whole our visit was good, the service was spot on, although I did have to go looking for someone to pay the bill: which was £41.85. I can forgive the veg because I should have known better, and recognised it was there more for a contrasting decorative colour rather than for a serious tilt at pleasing my palate. As a principle though I would never find it possible to forgive the use of AGP’s!!I’m sure we’ll be return here and will probably dine out in the, what looked like, large garden or under the generous canopied area adjacent to the pub, providing that we get some sun in this summer of our discontent.

Food is served outside currently due to Covid. This really is one of the very best Sunday lunches locally with rare beef and lovely pork with crackling. Other food is served and there is plenty of it. The obvious place for us to go to as Covid restrictions were eased. The staff are great and very helpful. One of our go to pub/restaurants.

First meal out since Lockdown. Glad we chose Helen & Co. Organised so we felt safe and you could not get a warmer welcome. The young waiting staff should make their parents proud at how friendly and professional they were. Sunday Roast was delicious and portions just right. Meat was very tender. Sweets were good as well. We had visited a long time ago before the refurb and received all the above then. The refurb looks good.We will be back.

We have not been here since my boys were little. They were very pleased to see the play area is still there (even though it may not be open currently). The menu caters for everyone and the food is excellent. Really enjoyed our visit. Looking forward to seeing the new bar when refurbishment is complete. Thanks Helen & staff!

Went on a recent break in the area as a family of 4 and given Co-vid and the EOHO scheme the menu was incredibly extensive and catered for everyone’s tastes...the local pie of the day was superb...scampi was excellent and staff were brilliant....it is undergoing a Refurb so it doesn’t look great and lacks some of the charm of other pubs in the area but don’t be put off...you won’t be disappointed if you go

The people in this village are so lucky to have this great pub and eatery. We had a really tasty meal of sea bass perfectly cooked and served with a herby cream sauce.....yummy. They also have a little shop around the back. Highly recommended.

We went for a Sunday roast on my wife's birthday. Food excellent as always, the beer well kept, service timely but not hurried and relaxing atmosphere.

Despite being in the grip of refurbishments, this pub was still welcoming and having cheerful efficient staff and it's usual good food.

My son in law came to visit and took us here for Sunday lunch, made most welcome and a good value lunch House red wine exceptional value

We booked a lunch here for 10 of us, well actually 8 of us, my partner actually forgot us, but they were able to accommodate all of us. Good was very tasty and Delivered to the table in extremely reasonable time,Staff were very friendly, very polite and were a pleasure to be around.

Recently visited the ship for a shoot breakfast and evening meal, was very impressed with the quality of food and the warm welcome brilliant hospitality thank you Simon & William middle

Was staying in Luckington and had dinner there in the evening. The pub was being refurbished but that didn't the warm welcome or food we received.the steak and ale was delicious!

13 of us were pre-booked for lunch. We knew it was going to be good as one of our number had previously been on a recce! One of us was in a wheel chair. Staff were there to meet at us the door on arrival and directed us to the adapted entrance. This must go down as the best wheel chair friendly to date! The food was eceptional and the service the very best by the friendliest of staff. Worth ten stars!!

Called in here for a well earned drink after a long walk. The food service had closed but we only wanted a drink and a rest. The girl behind the bar was loely. She was friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely come back here again

The food was excellent and great value for money with friendly staff that make you feel like family. Truly one of the best meals I've ever eaten from a pub.

Having run Tough Mudder a small group of us arrived hungry at the Old Royal Ship only to find that we had missed their service time for food. Despite this, the kitchen offered us beef or veggie lasagne and all of the staff kindly looked after us despite our late arrival! The food was excellent - genuinely the best veggie lasagne I’ve had! Great pub food, lovely place and kind service. Thank you!

Was really impressed with the quality of the food given that they were serving 35 lots of lasagne, salad and chips all at the same time. Lasagne can be stodgy, cold, not very tasty especially when cooked in volume. The Ship’s lasagne was none of these - it was really tasty and not at all heavy. The chips were hot and fresh - it was all very nice. We shall be returning as a couple.

Fresh tuna Cesar salad served with hot buttered British new potatoes Classic twist on chicken. Finished with a hot apple and red current crumble with marshfield ice-cream or an Amaretto brûlée yummy

What a lovely pub!! Had Such a lovely welcome and the Food was fab, I had the chicken curry on the specials board which was so delicious! Will definitely be returning, thankyou for a lovely evening

Two of us were looking for a suitable venue for Lunch for a group (12 possibly) of 'less than active' gents. And we were not disappointed. Of course we had to order lunch...just to see if was going to be acceptable for the others!! We were provided with a comprehensive menu for both full 3 course lunch and bar meals. We opted for the 3 course menu as that would be the one our lot would go for. I chose the steak and ale pie and had a choice of chipped mashed or boiled potatoes. It was also served with a dish of vegatables and a gravy boat. After this I was pursuaded to finish with a summer pudding and cream. Delicious...so we will be bringing the others back to the Old Royal Ship. Interestingly an extension to the buiding is nearing completion and will provide a future shop and cafe. All Cotswold stone and green oak..most atractive!

Ate at the pub this week and it was very nice. We had lasagne with salad chips and garlic bread all of which was very good. The staff are attentive and always seem to be smiling. The prices are very competitive for the food and drinks. We will be back.

Could not have had a warmer welcome and efficient service. We had food off the specials board. The beef slices, very tender, in stilton sauce and perfectly cooked vegetables was so delicious. Best food we have had in a long time. Then we had delicious fruit Pavlova and poached pear presented beautifully. Nice atmosphere and clean. Noticed lots of outdoor seating and fantastic play area in the garden. Hope to make a return visit.

On a sunny Sunday lunchtime we chose to eat outside and our table by the play area was ideal for watching the kids in the well-equipped play area. The meals took a while but they did serve the kiddies meals first.

Busy pub that serves fairly typical pub food, nothing special but on a par with much of the rest. Prices good, but nothing special to write home about.

When we finally got our food after 50 mins of being seated the food was excellent However the drinks were flat and service wasn’t amazing

We are regular visitors to eat at this popular pub which and serves good, modestly priced pub food and a large selection of beers and wines. The greeting is unfailingly welcoming and the service informal and friendly. Thoroughly recommended.

We visited this pub today, there was 14 of us. The food came out piping hot and all together. The staff were brilliant, very attentive and keen to please everyone. I would wholeheartedly recommend this pub for singles,couples and large groups. We will certainly be going back.

Staff friendly and knowledgeable and approachable. Comfortable and cosy seating Starter good. Main course could have been hotter. Roast potatoes need attention. Couldn’t cut them not cooked Turkey moist and good Vegetables good Sweet good

We were walking in the area today and made an impromptu stop here today. We were met by a roaring fire and friendly staff. The food was simply excellent. Mrs H had pork & apple in a cider & mustard sauce and Mr H had steak & ale pie. Both were delicious and good sized portions. Mrs H asked for hers to be reheated as it did arrive lukewarm and this was carried out without hesitation. We are still awarding 5* as this was just a minor niggle and the quality of the food and the atmosphere in the pub far outweighed this. We will definitely be visiting again. If we were to look for a negative it would be that perhaps the prices were a little more expensive than we would expect.

My two English friends who live in Luckington joined me here for dinner and drinks. The Inn is attractive, the staff friendly, and the service excellent. We all enjoyed our meals and I would have no hesitation coming back or recommending this place to others.

I have been going to this pub for many years and just returned again to possibly the best ham egg and chips all perfecly cooked and home baked ham,so delisous. This pub is great for locals just having a beer or a nice meal with friends and family, I went there recently with 14 adults and children, great food well served and looked after.

My family and I went to the Old Royal Ship for dinner and it was really busy! I think the best thing to do is to book a table.

We've been coming to the Old Royal Ship Inn for years - about 20 years in fact. I can't think of a single bad thing to say about it. The landlady (who I don't think ever takes a day off!) is always so welcoming and friendly. The food is always excellent. On this visit I had a homemade beef and ale pie. This was a proper pie with pastry on the top and bottom with a lovely filling. So many pubs these days put a square of pre-cooked pastry on the top of some beef casserole and call it pie - not at the Old Royal Ship - this was the real deal. All the other meals were well cooked and nicely presented. My husband even got his beloved roast beef with Yorkshire puddings despite the fact that it was Sunday evening when we went. Lovely as always.

Three of us had the roast beef today and it was superb. Tender slightly pink beef, crisp Yorkshire pudding and roast potatoes with several vegetables all beautifully cooked.

Visited with family on a Friday night - great, friendly service, and lovely food. The whitebait starter is a favourite of mine, and they serve decent ales - 6X etc. Would definitely go again.

Los platos son de calidad y abundantes. Platos típicos ingleses, muy buena la lasaña y el fish&chips.; Para tomar una cerveza es ideal también. El servicio es muy bueno, la dueña es encantadora y atenta.

Called here today on the way home back to Lancashire and thoroughly enjoyed our food. The staff where friendly and helpful and the food we ordered was delicious. I only wish we lived nearer as this lovely pub would become a firm favourite for regular visits. Will definitely be back when back down this way again.

Visited with friends who live nearby, had light lunch from starter menu. Ate in garden as had a dog and wheelchair but lovely surroundings on a hot day. Wonderful friendly and helpful staff, highly recommend.

Family lunch , (my parents are regulars) it was fairly quiet inside but the large garden was fairly busy. Great choice of beer and food. All dishes were excellent that we tried and it has a varied menu.

Three of us had the two course Sunday lunch - choice of roast pork or roast beef on the day. The last member of our party had the beef salad - the beef looked absolutely wonderful, and apparently tasted just as good! All meals were thoroughly enjoyed - particularly the cauliflower cheese that came with the roasts and Yorkshire pudding. The desserts - three of us had the banoffee pie, the fourth had rice pudding - were very tasty too. The people behind the bar seemed to know most people that came in which gave the impression that people regularly return to eat. We had never been to the Old Royal Ship Inn before, but we were made very welcome and look forward to returning soon.

Staying in the country on a Sunday night , we suddenly discovered that we did not have much choice. Fortunately for us, the Old Royal Ship Inn was serving Sunday dinners.

Staff and owners are lovely really kind and professional. The food is really good and generous. They are also really helpfull. It is the second time I stay there and I absolutly enjoy it. Just a big thank you.

We had reserved a table for six one evening and enjoyed the food and service so much, we went the following evening. P Need I say anything more?!

My husband and me had a lovely dinners here just before the closing their closing time. Nice simple food and really kind staff. Recommended 👍 Aless and Ryan

Family Christmas meal, they looked after use pretty well. It was pretty noisy with the large volume of people but that's to be expected at Christmas time.

Lovely village atmosphere, friendly staff ,busy but attentive, terrific Fish and Chip lunch. Quiet country village, Play area for kids weather permitting. Plenty of parking

My wife and I were really impressed by our meal in the Old Royal Ship Inn - the food consisted of beautifully cooked, generous portions of traditional dishes at a very reasonable price. The staff were efficient, friendly and very welcoming. It really was that good. Thoroughly recommended.

Stopped to refuel had a tea and coffee , bread pudding and bake well tart both with custard. The puddings were gorgeous. Well worth the stop.

After a long drive we were ready for dinner.

Excellent service. All were delighted with their meals. Staff were very attentive, helpful and friendly. We had problems getting a taxi and they allowed us to stay inside despite it being nearly midnight.

A brilliant place to meet and eat as the food is wonderful,also the staff could not have been more helpful as 2 of our party of 6 adullts and 2 children were running late and we had finished eating when they arrived and the staff still looked after them brilliantly so they get 10 out of 10 from us.

Lovely Sunday roast my daughter had the spicy bean burger and said it was better that Jamie Oliver's in London

We have just had a break in the Cotswolds, needing food late on Sunday, we came across the Old Royal Ship and called in completely on the off chance. We were met with a good friendly service from the staff, good beers on offer and some very nice food, again served with a smile and some banter. The pub had a few early doors drinkers in, who were obviously local trade which is always a good sign.

Raciones enormes, bien preparado si te gusta la carne rara este es el lugar para usted - agradable personal que atendió bien a nuestra nieta. Hemos estado antes, pero se me olvidó lo bueno que es! Buen ambiente de pub local.

Visited the old royal ship on 11/3/2017 for a family meal.it was superb food lovely service was first class and all staff where very good.I have a good appetite but the quantity beat me I would recommend to anybody and the atmosphere was second to none Thankyou steve

Went with a group of work friends for Sunday roast. Couldn't fault it! Everything was spot on - from the food to the staff! Lovely atmosphere, will definitely return.

Great pub to catch up with old friends as my husband use to work in the area many years ago. The staff have always been wonderful, great beer, great food and excellent service. If you would like to experience a Saturday afternoon, would highly recommend as the hunting people come in for a beer or two. Well worth the visit.

There were 40 plus family members here yesterday, celebrating my Mother In Law's 90th birthday. We had a room to ourselves & everything went perfectly. The food was amazing & the staff were friendly & helpful. The guests ages ranged from 1 year old to 93 years old & everyone had a great time. Thank you to all at the Old Royal Ship Inn for making it a wonderful occasion.

We visited The old royal ship to meet up with family we had not seen for many years.Warm & welcoming , lovely log burner flickering in the lounge.Food served with a smile, all our meals we agreed were excellent & homemade,[varied menu] coffee to was great ,huge cafetiere holding 4 cups.

Booked a meal with family, the choice was brilliant, there is something on the menu for everyone's taste, especially with such a large choice on the specials board. The service at the bar and waitress service at the table was quick and efficient, which made the evening even more enjoyable. Well done to the top quality staff.

Food here is really good and staff most helpful, but the price of drinks was scandalous, a pint of Doombar £3.80 that is well over priced.

My husband and I called in on the off chance as we were passing. We had our two small dogs with us which weren't allowed in the pub - but on this occasion it wasn't a problem as it was a warm and sunny day and we were more than happy to sit in the more than adequately sized and pleasant outside seating area. The pub was quiet at the particular time of the afternoon that we called and we had one drink which we drank slowly, unaware that the premises was about to close. No one came to rush or hurry us and we enjoyed our relaxing and appreciated drink in peace and quiet. It was only when we took the glasses back to the bar and left that we realised we were the last customers in the pub and the staff had been waiting to close...and we only knew this by looking back and seeing that the doors had been closed. Would definitely call again if in the area but as we would have the dogs with us, it could only be on a fine weather day.

Had a lovely meal at The Old Royal Ship Inn. There was plenty to choose from the menu and also a specials board. I chose the Cheese, bacon and mushroom tart with salad and new potatoes and my partner chose to have a steak Bagette served with salad and chips. I must admit our eyes were bigger than our tummies as we chose to have a desert. A rather large portion of treacle tart with custard which beat me !!! The service was excellent and all the staff were polite. Would definitely eat there again if visiting the area.

What a fantastic pub. On Friday night we had their fish and chips which were epic. On Sunday night they had a local band playing which was great fun and this afternoon we have enjoyed the sunshine whilst having a drink. Such lovely staff. Friendly and welcoming. Fantastic food. Highly recommend.

This pub is a gem, absolutely lovely food for all the family, we have been here for lunch, evening meal and for just a drink and the food is of the same high standard every time!Lovely staff and great atmosphere and beer garden!

Large car park to the rear and a nice garden in the summer right on the village green.The food here is expensive for what it is! Make no mistake, it is very good pub grub, large menu and specials board, plus a good selection of beers and cyders.But make no mistake, chips, veg etc are all frozen and sweets are micro waved.But it is a very friendly pub and I would commend it! But take your credit card.

Really enjoyed my experience of this pub, very welcomed by the staff and food was lovely. Would definitely recommend and return. Great choice of food with large special board, great local products.

We visit the Old Royal Ship as a treat when we visit our parents who live nearby. The quality of the food is far superior to any other meal I have had at a pub. The choice is great, the menu regularly changes and there is always a great selection of specials.The staff are always friendly and welcoming. Nothing is too much trouble!Looking forward to our next visit already!

Very long wait just to order and took about 40 minutes just to get our average, from (I assume)frozen food. Always disappointing when you know you can cook better yourself and you pay for the pleasure.

Went here with a big party from U3A and had an enjoyable evening, apart from the noise level from the conversations! Plenty of choice of meals that were all seemingly enjoyed by our group. The pub was also helpful with special requests such as "no lettuce" and "berries only - no cheesecake". Staff prompt and helpful too. Choice of three real ales and plenty of wine to pick from.
