The Ship Inn in North Norfolk

What a fabulous little pub/b&b situated in the heart of Weybourne. The food is fabulous and the service is really rather good. There's also a bus stop right outside, if you're travelling from Sheringham, and another one just over the road if you're travelling from Wells. Buses operate on a Sunday too and the local company is Sanders. If you're going to eat or drink at The Ship it's just a £3 fare. The pub is very clean and has an amazing reputation locally.

What isn't there to like. Our room was gorgeous, nicely decorated, clean and had all the facilities required. The staff are so lovely, welcoming and very attentive. The food is amazing. We had breakfast included and every morning it was fantastic and the evening meals with a vast array of dishes to suit all tastes is exceptional. Compliments to the kitchen staff. Our room was cleaned and bed made daily and stocked with coffee, tea, biscuits and toiletry requirements. Thank you to the cleaner. It was my Husband's 60th birthday during our stay and he got a card and balloon from the staff. What a lovely thing to do - so nice. Overall, I would highly recommend The Ship Inn and we will definitely be visiting again.

A little piece of heaven in Norfolk. Such a lovely place, friendly, spotlessly clean and excellent service. Rooms and food are fabulous . Returned visit and just felt it was even better and will be back again.

Welcoming friendly staff. Good selection of beers and cider. Great food,fairly priced. Good clean smart toilets. Garden. Dog friendly. Lovely fire.

Just popped in here for an evening meal, food was very good, plenty of choice on the menu, staff were lovely.. and reasonable pricing £4 pint of coke and £15 for a double burger etc.. recommend but it’s popular so remember to book and car park get full.

Popped in here for an unplanned evening meal on Friday at about 6pm. Although still early evening, the bar area was very busy and all tables in the restaurant were reserved. However, very pleasant front of house staff organised a table for us but on the promise we had to vacate it in 75 mins. Great variety of dishes on the menu. We had a crab mornay salad and a burger, which were both well cooked and good value for money. All members of staff were very friendly and efficient. Well worth a visit but might be best to book in advance.

We stayed at the ship for four nights while exploring the north Norfolk coast. The staff are all incredibly friendly, the food was great and the rooms are lovely. Would thoroughly recommend going.

Great Sunday Roast in Weybourne. Welcoming staff and good choice of beers and wine list. Very reasonable priced for good quality food and drinks.

Fantastic independent pub, freehouse too! Great selection of beer at tip top quality. Food is amazing. Highly recommended.

Have been a few times for lunch and brunch and it's absolutely amazing every time! Highly recommend to everyone I know!

Amazing proper pub food. Well done

Great hearty home cooked food and big portions! The pie was homemade and delicious. Friendly and great service and at a really good price too 😊

Welcoming and friendly. Good food. The fish chowder was rather bland and gritty but all other meals fine. Children's menu very comprehensive and well received

Pub was full but the outdoor pods were great for a grey January day, helped by a fab pint and a great battered fish sandwich

Beautifully appointed accommodation and bar restaurant

What a wonderful place to have lunch with a friend. I can't recommend The Ship Inn in Weybourne highly enough. I have many awkward allergies and my friend also. We checked with them prior to our visit and they assured us that they could feed us both. I ordered mine in advance, my friend was able to order on the day. The Inn was very welcoming, clean with great attentive staff. The toilets were beautifully decorated and obviously checked regularly. As for the food. Oh my goodness it was perfectly cooked and so tasty. Things that needed to be crispy were and things that need to be soft and succulent were delightful. And desserts melted in the mouth. A good price for all their care, attentiveness, food and drink. We will be going back and taking more friends with me

The Ship never disappoints. Great food, varied menu and very friendly, helpful staff.

Spent a few lovely evenings in this pub. Friendly staff and great food. Definitely recommend a meal in here.

Always perfect. Staff lovely and food fresh and delicious.

Great pub lunch. Great service - nothing was too much trouble. Our celiac friend was well catered for.

We had a fabulous stay at The Ship earlier this week. The room was a good size and immaculate, with great attention to detail. The food and drink were equally impressive, delicious, a wide choice, and generous portions. The full English was one of the best I've ever had. The staff were very welcoming, making us feel at home as soon as we arrived, and giving us lots of helpful information about the local area. We will definitely be returning again in the near future.

We had a table for 3 people and we were celebrating my husbands birthday. The menu looked very tasty and it was difficult to make our choices. One of us had the loaded nachos another the Xmas special burger and I had the steak pudding with bubble and squeak. The loaded nachos came out first by mistake as they were written down as a starter so when these came back with the other mains they were not as hot as they should have been but very very tasty. THe steak pudding was delicious and my husband did not have any complaints about his burger but was not as special as he thought it was going to be. All in all it was very nice and we will return in 2025

Amazing food, the nicest staff and lovely atmosphere thank you from all of us at Anglia taxis

Lovely location, quaint pub with atmosphere, worth a visit

Lovely lunch after walking to Weybourne from Sheringham. Dog friendly. Great service. Food was delicious. We had fish baps, sausage bap and loaded nachos. All fab with good size portions. Would go again. Didn't stay so can't rate the rooms.

Lovely Local Village Pub, Great atmosphere and friendly staff. We are local but we haven't tried the food yet as they do not currently serve some of favourite Pub Food like Bangers & Mash, Mixed Grill, Chicken Tikka Curry, Onion Rings, Garlic Bread etc. Would love to see them added to the menu in the future if possible.

Didn't stay in rooms. Have not been to the pub for many years, we were pleasantly surprised, very clean n tidy, a good pointer are the toilets, pristine. Staff are very attentive n friendly. The food we had was excellent. Fish n chip baps are worth a try. We will most certainly be visiting again.

Warm friendly welcome and the food was excellent

Amazing little pub. Loved the food, super high quality. I would recommend 100 times.

A busy pub serving excellent food and a good selection of beers.

Didn't eat so can't rate the food. We booked a table but we were seated right next to the bar which unfortunately had a very loud couple of gentleman propped up there, swearing and being vulgar despite them seeing we had bought our 6 year old with us. We asked to be moved and we were but unfortunately weren't moved far enough away as could still hear them. Food seemed very expensive and on top of our mood being brought down because of the men, we did not stay. Staff were lovely though, just don't think they understood why we wanted to leave.

I was so looking forward to eating here based on the reviews. After a 9 mile walk I needed food and drink. But ……………. I had the misfortune to have a dog with me. ‘You can’t go in there with a dog’ I was shouted at when I glanced towards the restaurant. I had no intention of doing so but maybe a quick glance? I was then told that the only tables I could sit at were 2 and 3. Really? Seriously? You can see from the images that it was pretty empty. A Wednesday in early November and they show reluctance to accept my £30 or so lunch whilst I waited 90 minutes for the next bus. So my dog and I got an imminent bus back to our temporary ’local’ in West Runton where they were happy to accept my monies (& my extremely well behaved dog).

Friendly service, opted for the vegan fish sandwich and chips. Very tasty, decent portion. A large menu covering lots of preferences. Worth a visit.

An easy twenty minutes stroll from Weybourne station of North Norfolk steam railway. There is a footpath the whole way. Big lunch, massive sticky toffee oudding

We stayed for two nights, the room was well presented, very clean with a modern bathroom. Breakfast was cooked to order and a very substantial menu to choose from as well as cereal, yogurt etc..We chose to eat in the restaurant each evening and again a very good menu to choose from, the lamb pie may have taken 30 minutes but certainly worth the wait. The bar has plenty of beers to choose from and a very impressive assortment of Gin, our B&B package came with a voucher from the Ship Inn for two complementary G&T’s which was greatly received. The location is ideal with the coastal hopper bus stopping right outside the pub. All of the staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Would certainly recommend.

Incredible service as always and the mussels were to die for, great value for money and always a brilliant atmosphere. One of, if not THE best place to eat on the coast. Don't bother with anywhere else in Weybourne!

Booked in for a few nights and the first impressions are great. Very welcoming. Great rooms and very friendly. Perfect for a couples quiet break away with local walks close. Pet and child free rooms.

Our second visit to The Ship whilst caravanning at Kelling Heath and once again certainly not disappointed. A really warm, friendly greeting, really lovely comfortable dining chairs and great menu to choose from. Two of us went for the pig’s cheeks and two for the mussels, really excellent food with great service. Well done to the whole team, this is certainly a pub to eat in if you are in the area.

This place never disappoints. Warm welcome, cosy environment. Good choices on the menu, something for everyone. Great service too and imho, not expensive! Plan ahead and book, it’s understandably popular

We were lucky enough to be staying in Weybourne for a week. This place is fantastic. Friendly. Warm & cosy. Clean. FANTASTIC efficient and friendly staff. AMAZING food and excellent quality wine!!! What more could you wish for. Thank you to all the team for being so amazing

Staff very professional and courteous. Food was delicious, Fish pie for me and Moroccan chicken skewers for the wife. Log burner doing what a log burner should...BURN! Highly recommend if you're in the area. 👌🏼

Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Went the extra mile to cater for special dietary requirements. Only went for a family meal so cannot comment on rooms.

Evening meal with our Alaskan Malamute Mya. Fantastic service and a really dog freindly place to eat. Food was fantastic. Minced beef suet pudding with horseradish mash. Who does that these days? I nearly licked the plate clean. 5 stars from us and Mya

Friendly and efficient staff, welcoming atmosphere, spacious and well decorated.

Good food and good atmosphere. Background music wasn't too loud and everyone was friendly. Glad we were a 4, we wouldn't have been able to finish the nachos sharer between 2! Don't be put off by the price of the food, the portion sizes were generous! And a good selection of local ales too.

Really good food & lots of it...Great service & staff very friendly...also very dog friendly

Lovely little pub,not far from the beach Stopped for a drink Doggy friendly with indoor and outdoor seating

I enjoyed a family meal here. I highly recommend the Moroccan chicken skewers, and the banoffee waffle.

A friendly front of house, good service and good food. Child friendly. A nice selection of beers, ciders and spirits. Beer garden was lovely.

Dined at The Shop Inn on Saturday. The food, service and staff - excellent. Can't praise it enough.

Great food, good vegan selection, friendly service.

Quaint little pub in an excellent position if you're walking the coast path. Nice little pods to sit outside in if it's rainy/windy with some other outdoor seating. Just called for a drink, bit on the pricey side but all seem to be in the little villages. Dog friendly. Clean toilets.

Lovley pub amazing food and the beer was lovely 😀

We had a fabulous steak pie for lunch, absolutely delicious! We were served by Lauren today, she and all the staff at The Ship are so friendly, helpful and very welcoming. The pub is always spotlessly clean and we highly recommend it!

Excellent prices and food, very friendly

The Ship Inn is a nice place for lunch. The pub area is lovely and the service is very friendly. Our food was good, I was very impressed with the selection of salad and its size/freshness, it was tasty and crunchy. So many places skimp on salad portions, I love salad it’s often my favourite thing on my plate! The lobster was OK, the chips were tasty. My husband loved the fact he could have ribs (no sauce), wings and chips - he gave me his slaw. The walk from Sheringham was easy, our beers were cold, our walk back was a little more challenging with such full tummies. We’ll definitely go for lunch again, there’s a decent selection of non-meat dishes for me and loads of meaty things for my husband.

Staff well trained very professional, food spot on!

Great place to go.very friendly staff, service was excellent. Rooms very modern, everything that you need with extra special touches. Food was excellent and very high quality, great break.

Lunch today with my wife our 5th visit, previously with our family. Lovely setting, service , ambiance food and beer.

Breakfast is excellent - all freshly made and cooked to order. Despite being a busy bank holiday nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Rooms are comfortable with every detail thought of and exceptionally clean . We ate in the pub throughout our stay, the food is good value and the best in the area in our opinion. The personal touch of recognising one of our birthdays with a complimentary was a lovely gesture. Overall an excellent B&B congratulations to Ben, Lyndon and the whole team for such a high achievement!!! Thank you for a wonderful stay

Beautifully cooked, fresh and locally sourced meal. Attentive and friendly staff. We were made to feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble. A very enjoyable evening. 5 stars are well deserved.

We had Sunday Dinner which was fabulous .Excellent service and value.We both had the roast beef with cauliflower cheese as an extra.Lovely setting in a lovely village.We also ate there earlier that week had fish and chips and burger with cheese as an extra both were delicious.

Been coming to the area for 15 years and never been here. Popped in for a quick pint which was great. Bar staff were friendly, locals chatty. Menu looked lovely. Will definitely be back.

Without doubt THE best vegan lunch I've had in Norfolk, if not ever! Amazing vegan chip shop bap with two battered banana blossom pieces, in a huge bap with peas and vegan tartar sauce. It was absolutely delicious, and fantastic value for money. Very highly recommended and I will definitely be back!

Called back in here on Monday evening to celebrate our little ones birthday whilst on holiday. The staff were welcoming, polite and exceptionally friendly and the service second to none. The quality and quantity of food was extremely good and the portions that big we had to bring some home. Had the bang bang prawns and scallops to start, then the belly port and ribs / wings combo for mains. I don't think the prices are too bad considering the quality and seem competitive in comparison to another new location in the village offering food. We would happily go back and will return next visit. Thanks very much, great experience 👍

Weybourne is a lovely place and I have just finished a superb and reasonably priced meal. The quality was fine and the service very attentive. I'm not vegan, but I noted a range of options. Thoroughly recommend 👌

Lovely building, very pleasing to sit outside & look at. Busy outside & a good atmosphere with other drinkers. Prompt service if not particularly personal/friendly which I totally understand in this busy tourist area. A very good selection of hand pulled beers & keg beers/lagers. Wines by the glass were from 75cl bottles rather than those 187ml bottles of Jack Rabbit/Healey & Gray piss. My wife declared the Pinot Grigio very good & I for some reason had a nice pint f a gluten free IPA. My 2nd pint was Peroni which was very decent! I was dragged away kicking & screaming like a spoiled child as rather then behave like a responsible 55 year old - I wanted yet another pint of the usually to my taste overly sweet Peroni. . . . 🥲 We couldn’t have sat inside as when we first went in to request drinks the whole bar area smelled very strongly of fried fish & it wasn’t a fresh/good smell - we’ve no idea if the cooking extraction/ventilation system needed some new filters but the smell in the otherwise lovely pub interior was very off putting.

Wonderful B+B 2 night stay. Room 1 was double aspect, huge comfy bed. Slept so well. Really quiet. Room has all you want and so clean. Pub is perfect - busy but so friendly. Staff are superb and breakfast was enormous and so tasty. Evening dinner also lovely made all the better with Wherry beer. Lovely stroll to weybourne beach and nice beer garden. Really recommend.

Really good food served very efficiently.

Great dinner this evening in dog friendly bar. Generous portions with lighter options available pretty good value and excellent quality. The Ship caters well for coeliacs and even has gluten free draught beer. There is a wide choice of gluten free and vegetarian options on brunch, lunch and dinner menus but in season you’ll probably need to book over a week ahead to get a table in the evening.

Nice friendly pub and the food was brilliant, definitely not the cheapest place to eat but the food was delicious and the staff were very friendly and attentive. Would recommend a visit to anyone.

Lovely pub, great food and location. Beer garden is nice and contains pods if its chilly. Food is reasonably priced. Off street car park

Very pleasant pub. Rural location, not far from the sea. Warm welcome from the staff. Good beer and excellent food. Didn't stay in hotel. Strongly recommend

Lovely pub. Amazing peach beer!

We dropped in here based on location to beach and reviews. Did not disappoint. Crab salad was beautifully presented. Very tasty. Beautiful setting. Friendly staff

Dined here last night. Went as a 'walk in' with the family. Immediately made to feel welcome. The food was fantastic, as was the beer. My daughter has a dietary issue and the staff were very accommodating to ensure she was well catered for. Excellent value for money considering the quality of the food. Message for the owners, the staff you have are very good, courteous and attentive without being over bearing. Fully reccomend this place.

Lovely pub, pleasant staff although little short of parking. Food was great, we got seated outside for food as the pub was fully booked inside but it was well worth it. Book in advance

Fantastic Sunday Lunch , great food service. Well worth a visit .😊

Love The Ship! Food and staff superb as usual. Always a brilliant experience.

This is one of the best places to stay in Norfolk. The rooms are excellent, modern, nicely decorated, comfortable bed, clean bathroom and spacious. The food and service are top class and the staff are welcoming and friendly.

Wonderful food,at a reasonable price,service was friendly helpful ,and knowledgeable

We had a very good meal at this pub, and at that point we decided to book the same table for the following Saturday, which was our 20th wedding anniversary. When we arrived at the pub five minutes before we were due to be seated, we noticed that the table we had booked was occupied, so we asked the staff how long the table was going to be, only to be told that the pub PC software had re-allocated our table as we were just a party of two people!!! The alternative we were offered was a tiny round table, shoved between a table for four and a table for at least six, the latter being occupied by a family which were allowing their young children to run around the bar area! As the table we had originally booked was in the nice restaurant area to the rear of the pub, it is fair to say that we were seriously disappointed, and as we had stated when we re-booked the table that it was for a special occasion, the lady who took the booking never mentioned that we would not be able to have that table. What made it worse was the attitude of the chap behind the bar, he offered no apology whatsoever. Giving a review like this is a real shame, as the meal we had on our previous visit was very good and we were really looking forward to another nice meal there, and had it been any other day, we would have probably just accepted another table in a different part of the pub, but as we clearly stated it was our wedding anniversary when we re-booked, the outcome was totally unacceptable, and the staffs attitude has led me to write this review.

The Ship is in the heart of the pretty coastal village of Weybourne. It is an historic building with an updated interior. There is a beautiful cottage garden feel about the beer garden and to the front of the pub are wood and sturdy plastic pods to allow protected outdoor dining. The inside is spacious with different areas for dining. The menu is extensive and caters for all tastes. The portion size is ample so a three course meal should be slow and savoured. The crab salad was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. Staff are friendly and helpful and the table service and timings were excellent. There are also a number of rooms available to stay in. Can get busy so best to book a table. There is a small carpark to the side of the pub.

Came here for both brunch and dinner during our stay in the village and we couldn't fault a thing. The food was delicious, the staff were friendly and helpful and the service was second to none. They were so accommodating, lovely and seemed to genuinely love what they do. Would definitely recommend to anyone who loves who cooked pub food in a cosy dining room

We enjoyed a long weekend at The Ship for our wedding anniversary recently. Superbly run establishment. Rooms were very good and a great night's sleep! The staff and food were excellent. Highly recommended.

Just popped in for a drink. The cask ales were excellent. More suitable for diners. The food looked and smelled great and the place was full, which was lovely to see on a Tuesday

Village pub with a great beer garden reasonably priced drinks and food we went in once just for a drink then back a couple of nights later to eat . We both chose the chicken curry and it was to die for .

Friends recommended this pub & have to say it was excellent, eating & drinking in the dog friendly bar area. So pleased we booked ahead as very popular.

Just had lunch excellent food,lovely staff

Excellent meal with my wife washed down with a fine ale.

Excellent staff, welcoming. Well paced service. Excellent food. I had chicken kebab and couscous. Lovely decor, a nice place to go.

Not stayed in rooms food out of this world ribs highly recommended yummy

Fabulous evening meal - bang bang dishes to start then Sunday roast which was awesome. Great range of gins added a difference for a drink with the meal. Nice folk making us very welcome. Great parking although we have walked along the beach from Sheringham before, and bus back! £80 for 2 with service for starter/mains & one alcoholic drink each - you get what you pay for!

Perfect lunch spot with our puppy. Friendly and helpful staff and great location to then potter to beach

Lovely food, great atmosphere and the staff are really friendly. We will definitely be back next time we are in that part of the country.

We have just eaten at the Ship Inn. Really busy for a Tuesday, staff all very pleasant. Food was excellent. My husband had the steak,stout and Binham blue cheese pie. He said it’s the best pie he’s tasted! I had a vegetarian special which was also very tasty. Good choice of menu and very reasonably priced. Dog friendly area but best to book as we were lucky to get a table.

We had a lovely walk along the cliff path from Sherringham with a planned stop at the ship. But it was closed until 5pm. We checked before we started the walk, and it said it was open, and the sign outside said brunch served every day. Very disappointing 😕

Had lunch with friends in Saturday and had the fish and chips. Absolutely top notch. The batter was light and crispy and one of the nicest pieces of fish I've had. Busy with good atmosphere and service was uo to par too. Decent selection of beers also.

Second visit yesterday as good if not better Than you First time visit and it was great staff friendly helpful , food wonderful good quality great choice , will definitely be back

We came for dinner on a Saturday night- the staff were very friendly and welcoming. A good choice of gins and drinks and a good range on the menu. A bit disappointed with the fish and chips as the fish was a bit greasy and chips undercooked
