The Ship Inn in North Norfolk

We recently visited the area around Cromer for a long weekend. Wanting a Sunday Lunch I Googled/Tripadvisored loads of places - eventually deciding on The Ship Inn. What a great choice! We were NOT disappointed in any way. The pub itself was a nice location with great places to sit outside. The interior is brightly decorated with contemporary furniture. All the staff were welcoming, polite and very helpful. The menu varied - I had beef roast and my wife had Moroccan Chicken Skewers. Both were well presented and delicious. If you are debating where to go for a Sunday Lunch look no further than here - I would not hesitate to return or recommend in every regard. Thank you for a wonderful meal and experience!

Visiting the area and booked for breakfast. Excellent service and large freshly cooked breakfast with fresh ingredients. Would highly recommend. Probably need to book ahead.

The staff were very friendly and attentive. The belly pork and bubble I had was nice but nothing special. All in all I’d certainly go back.

As a local I have always praised this eatery - I took my family today for lunch - I was appalled, the £17.00 cheeseburger, yes £17.00 was a lump of leather (microwaved ?) on a sour smelling brioche bun. The childs burger was awful. The quality was shocking, yet off season this pub serves good standard food, so why change standards in the holiday season.... if they cant keep up the standard, dont charge people top prices for food that is inedible. Of the four burgers bought, not one of them was totally consumed, shocking. This place is now off my recomendation list,

Family of 4 for an evening meal. Food was excellent which included chicken & ribs, fish & chips, chicken curry and the salmon and prawn fish cake special. Excellent service, the staff worked tirelessly. Great selection of beers. Lovely venue too.

The staff were incredibly attentive and very kind, our food was some of the best we've ever had and the portions were very generous. We will definitely be recommending to friends and family and we will definitely be back!

We always come to the Ship Inn when on holiday and the food is always delicious. friendly staff and tasteful decor. Always nice to see it so busy

This was our second visit and both times we have been blown away by the steak and binham blue cheese pie. The pastry is beautiful and when you cut into it it is filled with tender, delicious meat, served with carrots, peas, mash and a gorgeous gravy it is just a real treat and we thoroughly recommend it! The service was second to none and we will be back!!!

Loved the ship inn. The food was incredible, particularly the fish and chips! Service was great, we went here for dinner 2 nights in a row! Would highly recommend!

Superb place for a quick lunch. Very friendly staff, food and drink both excellent and dog friendly! Highly recommend the chip shop bap!

Two nights bed and breakfast at the fabulous Ship. The accommodation is very comfortable, spotlessly clean with luxury touches like bottled water and posh coffee machine. The breakfast is cooked to order and of a very high standard. If you book bed and breakfast make sure you eat in in the evenings. The menu is wide ranging with a different specials selection each night. All produce is locally sourced. All the staff are friendly and approachable. If you stay here or just come in for a drink or meal you will not be disappointed.

Visited for lunch today. Lovely dog friendly pub, with good vegan options. Nice to have a choice! Will definitely visit again when in the area

Had a lovely birthday meal here. Soup lovely, Binham Blue steak and cheese pie amazing No room for a sweet. The staff are lovely and welcoming too. Again right on our doorstep we are so lucky to have this delightful Inn here in North Norfolk

Very good fish chowder followed by fruit crumble, also excellent. Good pub grub and just what we needed having walked from Cromer. Deservedly popular pub/restaurant in a beautiful location.

the Ship was highly recommended by a friend when he heard we were staying in Weybourne , we have been coming Norfolk way for 30 yrs and this is our first time in Weybourne, and we loved it, the Ship sailed high in every way, the Wherry, and in a handle was spot on, the takeaway fish and chips were delicious and amazing value, you must try it, we dined there last night 3/2/24, 6 of us and 1 in a wheelchair, the girls took a chair away so the wheel chair slotted in no bother, they let us put a bottle of our non alcoholic wine for one of the party who lets say is slowly losing it but certainly enjoys joining in, they had it behind the bar and he never knew, we cannot praise the staff enough, thank you Claire and the team, we will certainly be back,

Another visit and again excellent service and food. Looking forward to visiting again and maybe next time having brunch.

Booked a table for 4, had a lovely dinner each of us chose a different dish, the quality of the food was amazing and very competitely priced. Staff were spot on very professional and friendly.

This is our third stay at the ship and definitely not our last. The staff are so friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble. The food is delicious and plentiful. The pub and the rooms are spotlessly clean. The rooms are very well equipped and comfortable. Thank you to everyone involved in our stay.

Booked in advance as rwad reviews recommending this pub restaurant and was not left disappointed. The food was lovely and the service was excellent. Even better that we were able to take our furry four legged friend wirh us. Excellent, hope to retuen in the week.

It was ok. Till we met Lucy and staff. Then all expectations come to life. 💕💕👍..room fab. Parking ok. Breakfast the choice great. Nothing was to much trouble. Top chef please try slow roast pork belly. Not blowing my trumpet. Better than the ivy. Cheers guys loverly birthday weekend.

We had a family lunch at the Ship Inn and it was excellent. The food was great, good portions and beautifully cooked; we all commented how much we enjoyed our meals, especially the pork belly and salmon skewers. Our waitress was nice and friendly, efficient service and a cosy, warm room for us to dine in. Good value too. Faultless

What a pleasure from this time you walk in, great welcome, fantastic food, lovely clean warm surroundings, well done guys , really well done all, so refreshing to get such good service and experience. Worth the hour drive. See you again. Mr May.

We were welcomed with a lovely £4 pint of cask ale in The Ships January offer. Had an excellent Sunday lunch, the welcoming staff, service and food was of an exceptional quality. We both went for the Topside of beef and cleared our plates. We will be back. Thank you.

Fabulous Sunday dinner - lovely warm welcoming pub, great service and the best roasted topside of beef I've had in a while. Excellent!

Three nights in a row and consistently excellent freshly cooked, tasty food and great service. Lots of choice. A very lovely pub restaurant.

Fantastic home made local food, great service and a really nice setting. The menu had loads to choose from, and the portion sizes were really good. We have eaten in loads of pubs in North Norfolk and this is certainly one of the best.

We had a fabulous meal at The Ship in Weybourne in the dog-friendly area of the bar. The food was delicious (salmon skewers / mushroom burger) and the staff were delightful. Good price too. We will be back.

Had food and drinks in the garden, the pub catered for both vegetarian guests and meat eaters. Food arrived well presented and tasted really good 👍

This place is awesome, the food is amazing very fresh and cooked exceptionally The staff are really lovely and very helpful. Would definitely recommend ,

We dined at The Ship twice on our recent holiday..what a great experience! The food offering is a bit different from your usual pub grub and really good quality and quantity. I had the same meal twice (Moroccan chicken skewers) as it was super tasty...

Lovely evening celebrating my mums birthday. Great service and fantastic food. Good atmosphere. Would recommend.

What a beautiful place for a fabulous meal with friends. The roast beef dinner was absolutely delicious! The vegetables were cooked to perfection! The young lady serving us couldn’t have been more pleasant. We will return again this week!

We returned for dinner last week, and I am pleased to report that The Ship continues to offer excellent food at reasonable prices, a warm welcome and super dog friendly. Highly recommend it.

One of our usual haunts when in and around Weybourne. Another excellent meal, and very accommodating staff. I had pan fried sea bream with sag aloo, while my wife had mini cod and chips. The sea bream was superbly cooked with a spicy coating and...

Great pub , excellent food, and great staff, great value and fresh produce, Sunday lunch was fantastic as were all the other meals we had , maybe ring and book, they also offer take away .

Had an enjoyable lunch in the pub's garden after finding Wiveton Cafe closed for a wedding. Our first choice of crab wasn't available. Instead had a hot cheese & onion sandwich with accompanying pickles and the pulled pork nachos which were huge (enough for two...

Lovely looking pub, dog friendly, staff friendly, and the food is good, one member of staff stands out, Lauren. We booked a table as the place was full of dog we thought we could site anywhere. Turned up, and we could site as no dogs...

Came across this pub whilst in Kelling Heath, normally you don’t get great beer when the venue is mainly food orientated, this pub bucks that trend, I had the best pint of Woodforde’s Wherry that I have ever had anywhere, crystal clear and tasted fabulous....

Lovely pub we came across whilst driving home from beach. Obviously very popular, very busy but as we were just 2 people they accommodated us for food as ‘walk ins’ usually booking is needed well in advance I understand. Excellent food, well priced for the...

Great place to come for a drink in the evening. We were staying close by and didn't eat here but came down most evenings to have a drink, play card games with the kids. Good for families and dogs. Nice little garden at the back.

Fantastic food and staff . We stayed in the hotel and I can honestly say it’s spotless . Breakfasts are to die for and dinners out of this world .

Very nice pub/ restaurant with an excellent menu containing lots of gluten free options. Food was delicious and staff were friendly. Highly recommend.

On one of our many visit at the ship in Weybourne the service and food were excellent!!! Especially the breakfast is fabulous too everything was superb thank you Ben and the crew look forward to see you all very soon xxxx

Great food and friendly service, we were staying just up the road and stopped for a drink on Friday evening and had a meal on Saturday. The food was fresh and tasted great, massive selection of drinks including lots of local gins and beers.

We’ve just returned from a two night break at The Ship Inn. Everything was just perfect from start to finish. The room was spotless, the beds are exceptionally comfortable and the decor is modern and tasteful. There was a complimentary Black Shuck gin and tonic...

Staying nearby in caravan we decided order of the day for Friday was fish and chips in awning. Placed order on phone, deadline 3pm, for collection at 6.15. Left site at 5.55pm drove 2 minutes to pub. Sneaky pint of Wherry while we waited and...

The main menu must be 90% microwaved. There is not doubt it is straight out of a pack and heated up. It tasted ok but definitely not worth the money. I think the specials might be fresh as it’s lobster and crab. The rest is...

We were stopping in a cottage virtually next door to The Ship Inn and had already been a few times for drinks in the lovely garden. Late one afternoon we decided it would be nice to have dinner there so I popped across to ask...

Just had a fantastic couple of nights staying here with a group of friends. The rooms are decorated beautifully and finished to a very high standard. The owners have added some lovely touches in the rooms (OS maps of the area to use, and a...

Lovely Sunday Lunch good menu selection starters and mains very nice very good portions. Lovely place staff very friendly and very efficient. Would highly recommend.

We simply love eating here. Something of an annual tradition now. The highlight is the Lobster and chips. Always available on the specials in July and comes straight out of the water down at the beach in Weybourne. So local that the guy who catches...

Stayed three nights for some coastal walking. A very well kept place with great attention to detail, friendly and efficient staff and superb food. Fish and Chips in particular was 'historic', as Michael Winner would have said, with smaller portions available if hanging over the...

Visited Saturday evening for supper. Ambiance, service and food absolutely superb - never disappointed! Always good menu choice’s especially as I am a veggie , starter - button mushrooms baked in hoisin sauce - absolutely divine! We are looking forward to our next visit

We visited the Ship very recently and as usual drank a few pints of ale and had the fish and chips as a takeaway. The ales were excellent as usual and the fish and chips top quality. The staff are always great and look after...

We booked a table for breakfast, when we arrived it was closed… the manager opened up and cooked breakfast for us, when I looked I had booked the wrong day. He was so welcoming and we really appreciated him getting us in. The breakfast was...

With good reviews we went to the Ship Inn for dinner We had a Wherry beer on arrival ,it had no condition....We ordered Fish and chips mushy peas and tarter sauce The Fish was excellent but the "chips" should never have been put on the...

This is one of the better restaurants in the Holt area. I wouldn't go so far as to give it five stars, but it is certainly four plus. Service is friendly and helpful if, perhaps, a trifle too informal. My wife and I would prefer...

OUTSTANDING !!!! The staff could not do enough for me, I am in a wheelchair, I was helped and pushed across the car park by a very friendly staff person, nothing was too much trouble. We went there without a booking. They fitted us in...

Visited here Monday 19th June 2023 for dinner and 1st time visit. I did ring earlier in the day and managed to book a table for 7.15pm. Car park was full but managed to park 5mins walk away. A lovely pub and restaurant. The menu...

The sun was out so we went for an early evening beer and a meal. Bang bang chicken and prawn starters are a must followed by nachos for me and fish and chips for the others. Everything was absolutely spot on and the staff couldn't...

What a find! I just wanted a B&B close to the site where my family were camping for four nights but this is special. Beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean ( how can a wooden pub floor remain so shiny?) really friendly and helpful staff. Nothing too...

We stayed for two nights mid-week. On arrival we were met with a friendly greeting and shown straight to our room. The room was perfect, very modern, extremely clean with complementary gin and tonic and a Nespresso coffee machine. The bed was incredibly comfortable. The...

What a wonderful find!! Best pub food we have had in years, definitely the best for miles around. The prawn curry was to die for and the dirty rice with smokey sausage and creole chicken was incredible. Wonderful warm welcome. All members of staff very...

Probably the best pub food we've ever had. Visited the area for a week and ate there the times, such a varied menu and top quality. The steak pie was a favourite, as was the fish pie. Definitely recommend and will see you again next...

We’ve always had a good time here, but our most recent visit was even better than ever. The toasted sandwiches we had were amazing – full of fresh ingredients and crammed with flavour. The drinks selection was great and the staff were cheerful and helpful....

We stayed at a local lodge park and we were recommended to visit the ship inn. We were glad we did, we had the take away fish and chips and that was fantastic with home made chips and the fish was a good size and...

Well run pub, everything very clean and tidy, well managed service for both food and drink. Good selection of ales, lagers and wine, limited seating in bar area as the rest of the ground floor has table seating for food. Dogs only allowed in bar...

Great friendly place made us feel welcome nothing to much trouble Would come to the good ship again very dog friendly

A first for us, the interior is modern and is nicely laid out. The staff are friendly and very polite. The food is first class and the main dishes are filling. Weybourne is a pretty Norfolk village and this pub just adds to it.

Had Sunday lunch here. Beautifully presented, piping hot and Yorkshire puddings were perfect. Staff all very friendly, nothing was too much trouble for them. Will definitely eat here again when in the area

We went in on spec not expecting a table as we hadn't booked. We managed to get a table for a short period of time but long enough for a main meal. It was well worth it. The choice was reasonable and the quality of...
