The Ship Inn in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Super friendly and helpful staff. The beer battered cod was the best. Really lovely place to come come your family and your dog.

Old Time Sailors Gig excellent band. The food and atmosphere are brilliant. The staff and service are exceptional, very helpful and exceedingly knowledgeable and flexible regarding health issues.

Great food at a reasonable price. Lunchtime menu 12-4pm especially good value. Staff friendly and helpful. A great pint of Jubel Peach lager. Lovely gardens.

Excellent sized beer garden, reasonably priced food which was hot. Friendly wait staff. Dog friendly!

Lovely relaxed time with our extended family. We sat in the beer garden and enjoyed our well cooked meals that were served very quickly. The team working outside were very friendly and helpful. Definitely worth a visit.

Dog friendly traditional pub with huge beer garden as well as indoor eating and drinking space. Really good food (I enjoyed the pork belly) and great beers. Next to Par beach which is about as close to heaven as a spaniel can get 😋

I have visited this pub before for food & drinks and it’s been ok. Today my first visit for a while I’d say it’s now fabulous! I sat in the garden with my dog and as I wasn’t that hungry, just ordered a child’s burger (no issues with me doing that). It arrived quickly and was a very good burger. Their chips are also very tasty … and the beer … well Jail Ale! All the staff I interacted with were very pleasant and professional … I’ll definitely return

Went here for breakfast on the weekend after being told they did a good breakfast (They so not) Firstly it took the staff about 10 minutes to even acknowledge us before being seated. Me and my dad both ordered a large breakfast, i had poached eggs and he had scrambled. My poached eggs were hard boiled and cold! My dads scrambled egg tasted watery like it was a powdered egg or something. The majority of the breakfast was also cold. Even the toast which they delivered with no butter. Bacon was hard and tasted like cardboard Hash browns weren't great either. The place was dead as it was 10:30 in the morning so really no excuses. Absolutely DO NOT recommend. Wetherspoons do a better breakfast than this.

A really tasty Catch of the day Haike'. I am walking the Cornish Coast path and recommended stopping in for a drink and a snack...

Excellent food and excellent atmosphere, lovely outdoor area in the sun with music and very close to the beach

Avoid if you have allergies! I am highly disappointed as we have previously liked this place. I have two children that cannot eat gluten and I know this is not an issue for the masses but it makes eating out as a family difficult as most places don't offer gluten free options for kids. However I checked the menu before I booked and saw a few options they could eat. Only after sitting down and ordering we were told they can't do gluten free options today as they have been busy so at 6.00pm on a Saturday evening and two hungry upset children I had to find another alternative.

Next to car park for SW coastal path. Fresh fish dishes on menu. Loved our meals. Treated myself to a Pimms. Lovely garden, covered dining area and outside tables. Dog friendly and excellent service for us mere humans.

Top 5 pub. Brought back memories of a perfect pub. Great character inside, parking 👍, beer garden awesome for families. Brilliant pub

Disappointed. We went for a family breakfast on a Sunday morning, the hot drinks were brought out way before the food but maybe this should have been stipulated by us but I would have preferred that we were asked. We ordered two regular breakfasts and one full English, I was told later that they didn't have any black pudding for the full English to which the waitress apologised I asked if I could have extra sausage (after all I have paid for it) to be told they didn't have that either (maybe a complementary cup of coffee or a discount on the breakfast would have gone down well here?) When the breakfasts were brought to the table the waitress didn't know the difference between the regular and the full English and to make matters worse we weren't supplied with any cutlery, After sitting for a few minutes like lemons in front of full plates my wife had to get up and ask for it and then sit and wait again until it arrived. These are basics which can turn a simple breakfast into an unenjoyable experience. Regarding the food it was typical English breakfast of cold toast, anemic bacon and burnt sausage but by this time we were ravenous and just ate and left. What a shame for such a lovely pub

Had a breakfast today, and I can really say it was the best breakfast I've had in year's absolutely lovely, staff were superb 👌 see you next Saturday 😀

Attentive staff, quick service, great food, ample parking, dog friendly and just around the corner from Par beach. I had scampi and chips. My mum had the aubergine steak (vegan).

Only had drinks but good Gin and Lager selection Corona and Becks on tap. Lots of Tarquins flavours. £10.45 Corona and Blood orange gin w/lemonade. Good park

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.

Nice meal .a bit expensive very clean

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!

What a lovely family place, if you ever end up at par sand beach and need a nice lunch, or a cool drink on a hot day, then definitely check out the pub, you definitely won't regret it

Amazing tea time roast ! Pub was so friendly and nowhere serves late roasts . Quiz on and fun atmosphere . Food was exceptional . Highly recommend

Nice, dog friendly pub. Near to my favourite beach.

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.

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

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

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

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.

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 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.

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

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!

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.

Could walk from Par caravan park

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

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!
