Took my misses for a special occasion and was blown to smithereens with the quality of the food, the friendly service and outstanding atmosphere. The chicken schnitzel is to die for and all reasonably priced, 2 starters 2 mains a desert and 4 pints and still get change from £70 absolute jackpot

Bobbed in to the ship a couple of times recently while visiting my family, and was really impressed. In recent years everything here seems to have kicked up a notch, the food was unbelievably good for what I always considered to be a standard UK country pub with no frills. Amazing stuff. The atmosphere is great too, there always seemed to be people in and I’m glad they’re doing well.

We held our Yearly summer family meal today and this is the 4th time The Ship has come through for us. We were a group 0f 20 people and 3 dogs today, and everything was worthy of 6 stars, but I can only give 5. Nothing was too much trouble, including accommodating a few dietary needs, a last minute addition to the group and a sausage each for the dogs. Thankyou to all the staff today, you are great.

First part, food it was amazing some of the best fish and chips I've had in a while, although it took quite some time it was completely worth it, also the biscoff cheesecake I might have to say was the best cheesecake I've had period. It was well done and the taste and texture were top notch. While we were here (I don't know who) but a musician came in playing folk songs of all kinds and it was just amazing the perfect music for the type of place it is, it was hard to leave because we were all enjoying it so much. (Whoever this musician was your talent is amazing, thank you) the staff were all pleasant and welcoming even the people were nice and were there to have a good laugh All in all perfect place for a night 5/5 🌟

For a pub, the food was excellent. Really impressed, the staff we're lovely,.really welcoming.friendly and attentive. The only reason for the 4 stars on the atmosphere is due to a few locals' unfriendly attitudes. Must say the rest were friendly.

Delicious food here!! (and I can’t recommend the wine enough). Karen and Dawn are the most fabulous people, the ship is echelons above regular pub grub, so many veggie options- not to mention they had to practically roll us out because of the generous portions 🤣❤️

Can tell you it's the best pub I've been too, the staff, especially the little mature lady. Was one of the nicest people I've met, I felt right at home. The food was delicious all round and everyone enjoyed it. I had the belly buster burger and it was just that, couldn't finish it but I'll definitely give it another attack. The chicken is top marks, better than KFC so crunchy! Loaded chips were great too. This pub is my go to every time we come down for the weekend getaway. See you in a couple of months

Trialed some dishes from the new menu launches today (12/06/24). I cannot complain about a single dish so far. As a someone who isn't a massive lover of fish dishes, I really enjoyed the fishcake. It had the perfect amount of fish flavour without being overpowering, the melting middle enhanced the many flavours. The garlic chicken schnitzel was great and it came with garlic chips and a garlic mayo which were to die for. After discovering fro-co meant frozen custard, we were very skeptical about the ice-cream being replaced by this BUT this turned out to actually be a stunning dessert option that didn't taste like custard (I hate custard) and was more flavoursome than vanilla ice-cream with a lovely texture. Looking forward to trying more of the new menu and as always being served by the lovely, friendly staff.

What a find! We were looking for a place whilst visiting the area. It had to be able to accommodate a number of families and lots of children. We got there to find it had an onsite bus with soft play. Great! Then the food, we had ordered before we arrived. The food was delicious and portion sizes were hearty. The service and attention we got from the team who were on made us very welcome and were attentive. Nothing seemed too much trouble. Even when we asked for the toddlers food to come out. Definitely worth a visit!

Food was great, really enjoyed it. I thought that the sharing nachos came with pulled pork or the chilli, but obviously not as I had been charged extra for the pulled pork on the side. It was quite busy with it being Sunday lunchtime with few free tables and a wait time for food of approx 30 mins. On the whole, would go back again if I was in the area.

Certainly not for the feint hearted, doggy bags are available but a week full of Christmas binging meant I was just about up to the challenge! Can't wait to try the rest of the menu, which is huge by the way! Thank you xx

The staff are amazing and would like to say a massive thank you to everyone. Especially Sam who made our time just more amazing. She went out of her way to make it better specially on my birthday!. The food is amazing. Its bright and open layout really brings the place together. Pool table upstairs with lots of seating with a big TV you can connect to to play music. Have lots of seats outside. The food is perfect and the drinks even better! I will always come back when ever I can! The atmosphere is warming and it's a great place to chill out and enjoy a beer! For the week I was up in Lancaster/Morecombe I spent pretty much everyday at the ship. And tbh now that I'm back down south. I miss it.. Would like to say a massive thank you to Sam you are a lovely person! And have made the place 100x better see you when I next come up! Love you all you are all amazing !

Staff were great, friendly, pleasant and helpful. It was a bit disorganised, we arrived at 13.30, board advertised food from 12.30, staff thought it was from 14.00 . Had a black pudding with blue cheese starter very tasty Ordered a garlic bread which was lovely thin light and crisp and not great. The main courses were not as good. Ordered a salad bowl which was 90% lettuce so not impressed with that, also ordered the last beef and onion pie, the beef was tough and some of the meat was actually inedible another disappointment Final meal ordered was a ploughman's it was enough for two and we took half of it home, masses of fresh bread with plenty of butter, lots of cheese and some nice slices of pork. I would have this again (for personal preference I would check what cheese were being served and I would ask if I could swap the blue cheese) 3 star review basis two disappointing mains.

Really lovely little spot, lovely waitress. Jacket potato was a little underdone/perhaps microwaved. That’s probably my fault for ordering a spud at 10:15. Chilli was delicious and clearly homemade. My wife had a brie ciabatta and she absolutely loved it. Drinks wise we had cappuccino and orange juice. Cappuccino was too very good. Definitely would come back.

Short Story: We went to Koko Bento in Lancaster for the first time today and had a really awful experience. Everything was normal, the service was nice and the restaurant was pretty quiet (went at 17.30pm ish). We were shown to our table by waitress no.2 and left to pick our food. When looking at the menu, we noticed that it specified if the chicken dishes had thigh meat. So my husband chose the "Mochiko Chicken Curry" because he really doesn't like thigh meat (makes him feel sick). When the mains arrived, he took a bite and said that it was definitely thigh meat and that he couldn't eat it. He flagged waitress no.1 and said to her that he was really sorry, but the main was chicken thigh meat and that he couldn't eat it, so please could he send it back and get another main. Waitress no.1 said that because he had ordered it and didn't ask about the meat, that it was his fault. My husband repeated again he was sorry, but he couldn't eat the food so could he change meal. Then waitress no.1 went and asked waitress no.2 (who was downstairs) who said it was our fault and that the ingredients were already used so he had to pay for the food he couldn't eat plus a new main. We said politely that this wasn't right and that we wouldn't pay for the main that my husband didn't eat. The other waiter then brang my main (which was good and I thanked him) and saw that it was getting a bit heated and he tried descalate the situation which we thanked him for. Waitress no.1 then rang the manager who wasn't in and tried to make us speak to this manager over the phone (while I was eating my main), which was pretty rude and inappropriate. After my husband said he didn't want to talk to a manager over the phone and that again he wouldn’t be paying for food he didn't eat - we were left alone by the waitresses. When I finished my main, we went downstairs to pay the bill. Waitress no.2 was at the till and asked if we were going to pay for "everything" in an annoyed tone. And we calmly said we wanted to pay but wouldn't pay for the mochiko chicken curry that wasn't eaten. She then began to argue at us that it was our fault, didn't we know this was a business, we should pay because they had wasted ingredients, etc, in a raised voice, which was very unprofessional. We again said that yes, we could have double-checked about the chicken in the dish, but as it wasn't eaten that we categorically weren't paying for it but were happy to pay for everything else. She then told us to take a seat because she was ringing the police. We said that was fine and sat down at the counter and waited. The call went on for a few minutes before she ended it and walked back to the till and said we could pay now. The till has a screen where you can see the order items and the total bill. We could see she had taken off the mochiko chicken curry, and we paid the bill. My husband asked. "So the police said that you couldn't force us to pay then?". Waitress no. 2 then began to raise her voice at us, saying the same spiel that she had said before she rang the police. My husband said let's just leave it and go and told her she was being really unprofessional and that it was wild that she had tried to get us arrested over a dish we didn't eat. As we left the restaurant, she shouted that we were pathetic and told us don't come back. I said, "Don't worry, we won't ever come back" (sort of laughing because I was so taken aback and shocked by her behaviour to customers). She then tried to mock me as we walked out of the restaurant. I'm posting this to let other people know that this could happen to them if they don't like a dish they've ordered at Koko. We obviously won't be coming back, and it's a real shame that this was how the restaurant handled this as it was our first time eating there. It could have been sorted really easily, but that's not how it played out, unfortunately, and we ended up having a horrible time when we wanted to go for a nice meal together. I've attached a picture of the end of our meal, showing that my husband didn't touch his food. Thanks
