The Ship Inn in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

We have been to this pub many times as Dad lived not far away! Always good food & friendly staff. Gawjus old style pub well worth a visit.

Fabulous pub, great food we had fish and chips which was superb. Great service with a smile from Alisha. Highly recommend.

Beautiful food and excellent service, thank you. We have ate here twice in two days and the food was consistently excellent as was the service. We will be visiting g again very soon

Great little pub near Par beach. Good food, nice staff and dog friendly. Great garden too for summer outdoor eating along with an outdoor stage!

Food was excellent and plentiful Staff friendly and beer nice. A cosy endering, classic pub with lots of character.

The food was delicious, great portion size. The omelette is great value for money. Staff were all friendly. The fire was lovely and warm! Good atmosphere! Good selection of drinks at the bar!

Such a nice atmosphere, Jake the waiter was very kind and respectful, brilliant service, the food was so delicious thanks to Stevo, overall such a lovely place to have a good meal with family or friends

Food was amazing! Had a fish and Chips , cooked to perfection. Bar staff were very approachable and waiting staff was lovely. Came back to ask how our meal was. Will definitely be coming back again!

We didn't stop to have food as there wasn't a Sunday roast option. However I can say it's a nice atmosphere and the bar lady was very attentive.

Amazing food and amazing staff , our waiter was amazing and so polite and made sure we had everything and more , bar staff very friendly, and to the new guy your doing an amazing job

Good pub food at reasonable prices. Vegetarian options could be more flavourful, however, great to have options. Good position adjacent to beach

Had a few great experiences here - live music outside in the summer, pub quiz on a Tuesday, and a great lunch today. Lovely pub to visit when you’ve been at Par beach.

We found this pub by chance, but we were very pleased with it. A good choice of food was on offer, a lovely cosy ambience, and, best of all, the young lady who served us was delightful, friendly, always smiling, and she looked after us so well. Thank you. I would definitely recommend this pub.

Lovely friendly pub full of character. Welcoming and friendly staff. Great food. Great service. Highly recommended.

Friendly staff warm and cosy pub and excellent food big selection of beers great place for motorhome stop visiting the Eden Project

Lovely Sunday roast and the portions are amazing, we often eat here as we have a caravan at par sands holiday park. Would defo recommend

We had a carvery here, it was probably the worst I’ve had, beef was tough, overcooked and chewy. The trimmings were just as poor, the food was also not very hot either. Never again.

We came in for a family meal this evening. We've eaten here before and knew we'd get a nice tasty dinner in a pleasant relaxed environment with helpful, friendly and unobtrusive staff. We weren't disappointed. Between us we ordered 2 lots of dirty loaded fries, 2 lots of steak and ale pies and a fish and chips. All a good size and delicious. Also want to comment on how well kept the ales are. We had a Proper Job and a Jail Ale and both were spot on. Thanks for a lovely meal.

Popped in Friday evening and even though we hadn't booked they found us a table and were more than happy to help. The staff were all really friendly and cheerful, the service was first class and the food was ready quite quickly. Really nice, pub food. Hot, tasty and good portion sizes. Definitely worth a visit.

Great food, good service. Food didn't take long once ordered. Would definitely recommend.

We had a fabulous dinner here with family who were visiting. The pub has a real traditional/ homely feel and we quickly felt comfortable. The food was fantastic, fairly priced and arrived a short time after ordering which was great as we were very hungry and also had child with us. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly too and by far the best service we have had in a long time. We'll certainly be returning and thank you for a lovely dinner!

Loved it here. Prior pub with friendly staff, great drink selection and honest pub food that's not too pricey.

Great garden .nice cider.cozy in the winter

Cracking pint and a cracking meal.

Made to feel welcome as soon as I entered. Offered drinks samples, chose a lovely peach beer. Place was reasonably busy and menu look interesting though I didn't dine.

Camped in the car park for £15. Outside toilets not working, but can't complian

Great food, fresh pints, lovely staff and gorgeous beer gardens. We'll definitely be going back. 😊😊😊

Amazing food friendly staff great live music

Lovely food and service.. nice clean and welcoming xx

Excellent meal, Big Fish band were playing, excellent band, very enjoyable evening 😀 🎵

Nice pub in great location with friendly staff very good outside seating & the food & Ale were very good.

Food is really nice. Worth a visit if your near Par.

Absolutely beautiful pub with a hearty welcome from the barman great food, great staff friendly service. Well worth a try. Thank you

Had lovely evening meal with family here

Lovely pub and garden within walking distance of Beach.

Lovely pub with a nice atmosphere. Shame about the rock hard inedible ciabatta... it would have been full stars otherwise

Were busy (fair enough) but they sat us down and gave us a menu. When we went to order, said we’d have to wait 15 minutes because the kitchen was busy. 15 minutes later said we couldn’t order but blamed us saying it’s because we didn’t book. Would have accepted that no problem if they hadn’t sat us down with menus in the first place and then obviously told us to wait another 15 minutes. Not ideal when we had two kids to feed - didn’t apologise to my wife which I found quite poor customer service. Of course - apologised to me when I made a fuss, hate it when people do that!

Great kids play area here, outside bar too. Great real ale, St Austell tribute was the best tribute I had all week.

Fantastic landlord and landlady, really friendly place, great food

We attended a "free" evening performance here by Company B. My issue was the price of the drinks. I mean - should two pints of Coke really cost £7. Sad

Great entertainment last night with Company B. Good seating in the garden on a lovely evening. I had a lasgne - in house, with salad and chips - the 2 sides were fine, but the lasgne was disappointing. It seemed like a barely-cooked spaghetti sauce complete with veggies, thrown into a dish with pasta and cheese placed on top and microwaved for it to melt. Quite disappointing. Others also felt the chips for their meals were below standard for restsurant food. The staff were very accommadating and courteous. The food was the only let down in an enjoyable evening. We will return but not for the food.

The Ship Inn is a great pub, brilliant location if staying on Par Sands holiday park. The pub has great entertainment on most weekends, and sometimes in the week. Food is gorgeous and huge range of alcoholic drinks. Yearly Sea Shanty festival is amazing, always a great atmosphere with great people!

This is a lovely restaurant to go to, the food was delicious and arrived really quickly after being ordered, the waiting time in the queue wasn't too bad and the actual restaurant was a really nice place and the staff are really friendly and good. 100 percent would go here again and would recommend going to this place !

Fabulous stay over in our MotorHome. Food in good sized portions, tasty and good value. The pub were holding a Shanty festival that lasted all day and was great fun. We would definitely return

We came here for dinner and to camp in their outside garden area. The food was good quality and value for money, great selection of drinks and cocktails. We camped outside for £15, being right next the beach we thought this was amazing value for money 😀

Whilst staying locally, we attended The Ship Inn as they were hosting a Shanty Festival. We didn't expect for them to be able to cater for my coeliac daughter but after speaking directly with the chef we were pleasantly surprised to find they had GF options on their menu, had separate fryers and a good understanding of cross contamination. We ordered a kids fish and chips for my daughter and GF egg, ham and chips for myself whilst my husband opted for a hot dog from the barbeque outside. They did let us know that their sauces weren't considered safe for coeliacs and this further reassured us they would do what they can to keep our daughter safe. Food came out promptly and was good quality for the cost. Very happy. We did attend at a time of very high demand so queues were very long and newer members of staff seemed to be struggling but nevertheless we all have to start somewhere. All in all we were thrilled with our visit and the entertainment was top notch! Excellent venue with a very nice outdoor space. And a small play area for the kids.

Nice pub garden ... the seagulls will clear your plate for you if your not careful !!

Great pub, friendly staff and good beer! Just what you need

Wow! What fabulous service. As a single diner it can feel err awkward. But not a bit of it in The Ship. No suggestion of difference, you’re the customer clearly pervades the experience. Lovely. Indie, you are immense. Thank you 🙏🏼 ❤️

Just visited Ship Inn today Fish and chips were gorgeous Staff very polite and friendly Would definately recommend Lovely place

Great food, nice pub. Ɓadly managed and poor support for the hard work of the bar staff. Shame

Good location as about a 3 minute walk from Par Beach car parking. Cozy interior with nice decorations such as badges on the ceiling beams and some LEDs around the bar area. Really friendly staff and great service. Chips were also very nice, would go again.

Great little pub. Ideal if staying in holiday park nearby. Good choice of food and drink. Food was well cooked and tasty.

Friendly staff lovely food very generous servings and relaxing atmosphere in a lovely pub garden. Will definitely come back again

Could walk from Par caravan park

A nice setting for a Beer and if you have a dog fetish, but unfortunately the Food didn't do much for me, asked for a Medium Steak, and came out really Rare.

Spontaneous lunch but glad we made it here. Our neighbours highly recommended the place & as we live not far away, I was very impressed. What a great place to visit and will be back many more times 👍🏻👍🏻

What a great set up this place has!!! A real gem with super food, staff and location. Par beach nearby for a walk either with the family, dog/dogs or on your own. Loved the outside bar where you can order food and drinks without having to wait at the main inside area. Even the upper floor with balcony was a great addition. Big car park, very safe kids area & even the added bonus of a stage area - where live bands etc perform. Plenty of under cover booths to sit and relax as well as garden tables. Very impressive - well worth a visit ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Always worth a visit if going to Par or nearby. Especially if the weather is good and you have a dog. The food is normal pub food, tasty and nice big portions. Service has always been very friendly and fast.

Nice pub. Sadly the food is terrible. Everything is fried in old oil.

My partner had the chicken & bacon roll with fries. When it came the fries were heavily coated with salt. ( They were even too salty for me.) He told 2 waiters he couldn't eat them because he has blood pressure and was advised not to eat a lot of salt, waiters said they would mention this ! He also told the bar person and same reply. We bought lunch & 6 pints of lager so we spent quite a bit of money. When leaving my partner saw the chef and relaid the issue, he said he would do some more, this was 2 hours later and we were leaving. Condiments were on the table so please in future let customers add their own salt. the amount was too much for

Called in for some food after a day out, sat out in the lovely beer garden. The food and service was very good and friendly staff.

Is there a better beer garden when live music is on? Great selection of beer cider and spirits

Whent for a meal wasn't cheap but it was really nice and all the team in the pub were so nice I will definitely recommend it

Dropped in for an evening meal. The pub gardens are great, with lots of different areas and booths,etc. Drinks were great. Food was a bit of a disappointment. We chose steak pie, which was overcooked to the point of burnt, and contained some pretty awful fatty meat; not steak by any means. Companions burger was OK, but a bit dull. It would be great to see them improve their game in the kitchen, as this a nice venue for an evening out.

Excellent food and service here. Prices for food and drink here are less than half of what we're paying at our hotel! The food is consistently very good. - We've been here several times. I recommend the gammon and also the seafood chowder. Plenty of room to park your car and swings etc to keep the kids amused. A well appointed outside space - some covered and some open so you can watch the kids and enjoy the sun.

Went in after walking the dog on Par beach, dog friendly pub, nice food and a good choice of food and drink.

Just had an amazing meal, food was delicious, staff were fantastic, will definitely be going there again

Scampi and chips, lovely. Staff very helpful.

Great old pub.. very professional and wonderfully friendly.

Aufull service, staff vaping in toilets, wouldn't recommend manager finn got our orders wrong , hairs on glasses , warm food wouldn't go again , very disappointed.

Good beer, friendly staff, on a bus route, close to the coast path

Dog walk on the beach then lunch afterwards

Whilst visiting family we went for dinner on a Saturday. We rang about an hour before to book in case they couldn't accommodate us. The pub looked pretty busy, and I got the feeling a few people were regulars. The table and the cutlery were clean, the food and drinks were all good, and the price was about right, and the staff were all lovely and helpful. All in all it was a lovely evening, and we have already said that we will go there again. Thank you to all the lovely, helpful staff,

Pulled in after visit to beach. Lovely outdoor garden, with background music, outdoor serving area for drinks. What a great sunny afternoon stop in Cornwall

We sat outside in the garden, which was very well maintained. There was a secure play area for children. The bar staff were very friendly and helpful. There was an outside bar, which seems such a good idea, as you didn't have to go inside for drinks.. We did not stay, so I can't comment on the rooms

Lovely pub, with great service, we stayed at the holiday park and made several trips here, for food and a drink of two. Nice beer garden with plenty of seating, shaded seating areas and a playground for kids if you have a family. Parking at the back of the pub is available for customers. Nice pints, lines are obviously kept nice and clean, and the food was really nice. Live music on some nights too. Friendly locals 😁.

I was campervsn camping so the facilities are basic. Just a parking place and the outside toilets are left open 24 hours. The pub serves good beers and the food is pub standard but reasonable value for money. One minus is typical for many pubs....the tables are always sticky! I saw the waiter clean them but still anything on the table just clings. It's horrible.i could barely peel a beer mat off! A minor gripe though. The pub is about 300 metres from Par sands which is a fantastic sandy cove with cliff walks. The bay is clearly a fantastic kite surfing location as there were some incredible displays on what was a rough and windy sea!

Staff and location were brilliant, but the food was a disappointment. £15 for a sloppy watery lasagna that came out in 5 minutes, so I'm guessing it was microwaved. Shame as the fish and chips were fine

Local to our holiday lodge. Food & drink excellent. Use it as our local when in Par.

Stooped off on our way back to our campsite for a quick drink, we were made to feel very welcome and enjoyed a pint in the sun I the beautiful beer garden.

Nice pub. Good beer and food is good as well

Quality boozer which nice decor and staff. Beer selection could be a bit less just Sharps range but that’s fine. Bar man was super chatty and nice.

Friendly staff, nice and clean, dog friendly and good food . I highly recommend

Went to the ship in for lunch and ate outside. Which was lovely to sit in some fresh air. Lovely meal and great customer service by Connor. He's very polite and made sure we were happy with our meal. He's a credit to the ship Inn.

Carvery nice enough, although I'd prefer to have the meat given to me and for the rest as a help yourself style Carvery rather than it all being plated for you - Four spuds didn't quite cut it.

Had a lovely meal very friendly staff thanks to scarlet for looking after us😀👍

I recently went to the shin inn for a Sunday lunch with my family and friends, I was impressed by the food and also our waiter who was called Theo. He was a rather young lad but was still extremely capable of everything he was asked, he is also a lovely person to have a genuine conversation with.

Nan behind the bar is a Star ...what a girl...couldn't do enough for us organised drinks, a table, lunch and lovely conversation while serving several others at the same time.

Delighted to find The Ship Inn now offers superb breakfasts, becoming the new favourite 'go to' after the closure of our previous regular venue. Excellent value and a beautifully cooked grill selection from quality ingredients, the vegetarian options are just as tasty as the regular full English, along with excellent coffee on the menu. The staff and kitchen team are incredibly friendly and welcoming, and also operate a dog friendly policy for walkers. A beautifully appointed and well kept traditional style Cornish inn situated by the entrance to Par beach, The Ship Inn makes a fabulous setting for a delicious early breakfast with the chance for a good amble along the beach to work the pounds off afterwards. Excellent venue, fabulous food and great service all highly recommended.

We came in for a quiet drink and a spot of lunch, only to find the weather outside warmer than inside… everyone in their coats. No fire going, no heating even on. Straws seemed to be cut in half to save money… bar lady had her hands up her sleeves she was so cold. Needless to say we knocked our drinks back and left before hypothermia set in. Thawed out in the car before driving off, teeth chattering. Won’t be coming back until summer, when I’ll be happy to cool off indoors. Pros- J20 was wet.

Friendly bar staff and the food was decent

Me and my partner enjoyed our little lunch nibbles with our dog. Nice menu. The prices were average for these days. The food was yummy. Staff were lovely and welcoming. Its an oldy pub with a great beer garden

Visited at the weekend as they had just started doing breakfasts again, food was fantastic, great atmosphere and staff were super friendly, new chef is a breath of fresh air to a stunning pub. Can't wait to see what they have planned for the rest of the year. Left about 11am and could smell the carvery being cooked from the kitchen, already booked in for this coming sunday. cant wait

Visited during the summer, nice beer garden but ordered a chicken & bacon sandwich and was presented with the sorriest excuse for a sandwich I've ever seen no chunks of bacon or chicken, just the thinnest spread of I don't know what on the cheapest, thin bread you can imagine, a few weeks later we went for the breakfast and heard someone complaining at the bar that the bread had mould on it. The pub itself has a lot of potential but the food is very average but the prices are not, greedy landlord syndrome to be honest. If you put as much effort into consistency and quality of the food you send out as you do Into your complete denial responses to negative reviews things might actually improve, Your consistent 1 and 2 star reviews speak volumes. Fine to visit for a pint, but look elsewhere for good atmosphere & good food

Going to do an honest review as I really do like this place, the staff are very attentive and friendly so no complaints there, a particular lady that served me at the bar was wonderful, my husband said she poured his pint of Guinness to perfection! We had booked a table for 1:30 but arrived earlier however this wasn’t a problem and we were seated immediately, no one brought menus over nor were there any on the table so we had to go get them at the bar which is absolutely fine I understand a lot of pubs do this differently depending on their type of table service. Most of us had the carvery which had a lot of nice options and was a great size for the price. The beef was a little dry, possibly due to having already been carved and sat on the hot plate, instead of being carved just before serving, the gammon however was cooked to perfection, very moist and full of flavour. The stuffing was quite dry also, really lovely flavour just a bit too solid for my tastes. All the veg on offer was fantastic especially the cauliflower cheese 👌🏻 only really the leeks I found a bit watery. Overall its in a great location with a fantastic beer garden, would definitely come here to eat again, perhaps off of the main menu as the choice was quite good!

Very welcoming as they hosted the Wassailing event on Sat 13th Jan 2024. Good Rattler cyder to celebrate.

Visited Boxing Day, so no food available, but friendly staff and good selection of lagers, beers, splits and mixers, including an eye-catching display for botanical tonics. Dog-friendly if your dog is well-behaved *and* on a lead.

I recently dined at a charming restaurant The ambiance was inviting, with soft lighting and tasteful decor. The menu offered a diverse selection of dishes, and I opted for the chef's special, a delightful fusion of flavors that left my taste buds pleasantly surprised. The service was attentive, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant dining experience. Overall, Savor Delights is a hidden gem, perfect for those seeking a culinary adventure in a welcoming atmosphere.
