We went in on a day the Six Nations rugby was on. Managed to get a small table. The table had empty glasses on and was sticky. There were staff behind the bar but they weren't all serving. Place was fairly busy with patrons already seated. It's a place that has a 'locals' feel to it, which suits us fine. Very tasty hand pulled local ale. The staff were more than happy to pull off a 'taster'. Next visit to Exeter, we'll be in. 😀

My partner and I had our leaving do here last weekend and it was fabulous. We hired out the top left part of upstairs for approximately 25 people. On arrival everything was set up and staff we on hand to help. The staff were INCREDIBLE as nothing was to much trouble. They went above and beyond with their kindness and professional service. We had pre ordered food which all came out on time and was delicious. Everyone was super happy with their orders. I'd highly recommend the ship for small gatherings, we really did have the best time. It was the perfect venue to celebrate with our friends and family. Big thanks to Jade for organising and Rob and Megan for the excellent communication and effort behind the scenes. Great team, excellent service, fabulous pub! 👌

A nice warm welcome from the bar staff . I had a pint of Abbot ale , and this was a very well looked after pint . Then I ordered food for myself steak and ale pie with triple cooked chips, and a wedge of cabbage . My friend had cheese mac that came with a side salad , he also had a side of garlic bread. The meal was nicely presented , and was well cooked with generous portion sizes. All together a most enjoyable lunch, with resonable prices to match. Well worth my visit , and i will pop in again wen i am visiting Exeter .

Wonderful, very dog friendly, authentic, historic pub easily missed down a small alleyway which joins Cathedral Close to the High Street. Visited today at lunchtime and couldn't fault the food, atmosphere, service and staff, all were beyond expectations and excellent. We had the Ship Burger, OMG it's not just any burger, it's the Ship Burger, as it were, Duck Hash, again delicious and a pleasant change from the standard fare on most pub menus and the Chicken Kyiv (we are all Ukrainian now!) which was delicious. Said thank you before leaving and was advised the head chef today was Angelica, which was a nice touch. Well done to Angelica and the whole team, in today's world of cheap and cheerful or pretentious overpriced gastropubs, this hits a real sweet spot, with great food, staff, atmosphere and value. Will definitely return and would highly recommend seeking it out. Cracking pint of The Ship Best Bitter too, which was the icing on the cake. Thank you, keep up the good work.

A pleasant evening but marred by two things. Firstly, there was a group of rowdy revellers who were creating a cacophony on the piano and doing their best to break it. Eventually, the security staff moved them on. Secondly, someone had obviously been sick on the floor earlier in the day and it hadn't been cleaned thoroughly as the smell was still very evident. Other than that the staff were friendly and efficient although it was a busy evening due to an event at the cathedral and another body would have helped.

My wife and I went for lunch today, my wife had the pie and chips and gravy which she said was luke warm apart from the pie which was hot, not bad vfm is everything was served hot .I had the chicken burger which was pathetic, cooked to death half a wafer thin chicken breast that again was served Luke warm with a tiny little cup of fries like a child’s portions and a little pot of sauce, not at all vfm , left hungry and not one check back to ask how our food was?! Nice little pub but average food. Can’t forgive luke warm or cooked to death food.

What a find! My wife and I often travel up to Exeter from Paignton on the train to look around the city centre and have lunch. We came across this lovely olde worlde restaurant/pub, tucked away in an alley close to the catheral green and decided to give it a try. What a great decision! The staff were friendly and efficient and the atmosphere was in keeping with the quaint surroundings. But most importantly, the food was superb! I had the fish and chips and my wife had the steak and ale pie, all washed down with a lovely bottle of the house Chianti served in an ice bucket. We're both now looking forward to our next visit to Exeter soon and returning to the Ship Inn for another superb lunch.

If you’re in Exeter, you really should visit The Ship Inn. Located in the town centre close, off the cathedral square. This is a Tudor or Elizabethan pub with all the features. Good selection of beers and wine. We didn’t get to try the food as there was a 40 min wait (7:00 pm), which may not be a bad sign. Great atmosphere

We were in Exeter to have a walk and have a look to same shops around middle October. I were with my partner and his parents. It was two o'clock on a Saturday, when we arrived we ordered our food and we waited patiently for 1 hour. We been offer free drinks due the long waiting but we had already our food at the time of the gentle offer. I have to say the food was well presented and cook at perfection. (check pictures) All of us enjoyed our food. I've never had a better piece of duck, the same was for the pie of my mother in law, the steak of my father in law and the chilly without carne " vegetarian option" of my partner. I am so pleased for such delicious food but I definitely will looking to the clock next time we get to eat in that pub, I do appreciated that it was a busy time but I saw a couple arrived later then us been served before us. However the place it is a lovely, cosy and traditional English pub very close to the Cathedral of Exeter, hiding away in a little allay. There are plenty of space and room to eat. I raccomend if are a lover of food like me but take a book with you it may help you to kill the time of waiting!! 😉

Only Greene King could bastardise a lovely old historic inn like this. My first visit while travelling through Exeter and very disappointed. The inn has a plethora of poorly installed modern electronic equipment, flat screen with exposed wiring, overhead projectors, unsightly speakers, gaming machines, etc. In addition there is the ubiquitous background musick. Brewery chains should have a responsibility to operate premises like this in keeping with their historical context and keep modern equipment out of the main bar.

Whilst in Exeter for a couple of weeks, it was an absolute delight discovering the Ship Inn. The staff were always bright and friendly, greet you with a Hello and a smile, I was amazed to see the level of help given to a disabled customer by young staff meeting his needs. On a number of occasions, staff assisted new customers ordering food who had food allergies, not only by using a tablet but verbally and professionally. The bar staff and serving staff were supported by team leaders throughout my visits, who also greeted customers in a friendly manner. Although I don’t know their names, one had a lovely regional Scottish accent and the other I think was Polish. If not team leaders, they should be! Although I didn’t eat at the Ship, the food looked lovely and seems well priced. All in all a wonderful old pub with great atmosphere and brilliant service…..I’ll be back….thank you….!

We visited on a relatively quiet Wednesday lunchtime, but there were still plenty of diners. We opted for light lunches of a rare steak on ciabatta and a chicken and bacon sandwich with a side order of thrice-cooked chips to share. Both sandwiches were extremely nice - though I'll admit I added extra mayo to mine. We were looked after by the staff who ensured our table was clean and that we were happy but weren't intrusive. The inn has a lot of history, the atmosphere had a gentle buzz and the backing track wasn't too loud and conversation was easy. The ladies' loo was clean and attractive. We agreed we'd love to come back next time we're in Exeter.

We had passed by this pub and glanced in the last time we were in Exeter. This time when we were looking to eat we saw their board on the main street and remembered our passing it. We decided to go in and see what it was like. It's beautiful, like being transported back in time. Being a Sunday, we had the option of a roast, which I took. I have to say that it was the best roast that I have ever tasted away from home. My husband chose the pie (he didn't want to be disappointed by yet another tasteless roast). He said that the pastry was sublime and everything well flavoured. My son-in-law had a burger. He said that it knocked the socks off the one he had had around the corner by the cathedral. If you are thinking of going in here, please do!

Lovely old atmospheric pub right near the cathedral. It’s everything that a tourist would hope for, with the addition of good beer and food! However, the photo below shows the state of the door to the men’s room. It is beyond disgusting. The inside of the door was much worse, but I didn’t want to be seen to be taking photos in the loo! It is disgusting to think that staff and other customers are touching this and then serving food, handling glassware etc. this door should NOT be repainted- it should be removed and burned and replaced. I visited the website of the company who own this pub but couldn’t find a mechanism to report this sickening situation. Whomever is supposed to be managing this pub - isn’t.

This is a very old pub with low beams and limited space. It is down a passageway connecting the grassed area in front of Exeter Cathedral and the pedestrianised shopping area. The staff are friendly and the food is straightforward pub food. If you like old buildings this would be perfect. If you like more space perhaps you'd find it a little restricted. I enjoyed my visit to meet a friend. We had ciabatta steak sandwiches and non-alcoholic drinks but they have a good selection of beers. It would be an ideal place to have lunch or an evening meal after visiting the cathedral.
