First visit to The Ship. Fantastic evening meal and great calm atmosphere. The location is also beautiful. Sincere thanks to Pete who recommended the Sea Bass with his own creative twist including a sauce. It was the very best Sea Bass I’ve ever had ( I like Sea Bass ). Talented chef for sure. Excellent accompanying wine list with very reasonable pricing. Highly recommended. Thank you team Ship ⭐️

Amazing lunch at the Ship today, the new chef is stepping up to the mark with some FAB dishes. My Sea Bass was fresh and very tasty, my other half had Monk fish linguini in a lovely sauce. Previous visits over the last month or so included homemade beef and ale suit pudding and a very good belly pork. Will definitely be back in a few weeks.

Visited tonight but fell a bit short of expectations. Starters were great and different. Whipped feta with honey and pomegranate salad and the tempura prawns with beansprouts. However fish and hand cut chips. Sadly these were definitely not handout chips, but mccains or similar. I had the monkfish, mussels and king prawn linguine in a cream and white wine soup. (Sauce). Far too much and runny. Plenty of seafood though, but sauce needs to be thicker to give a nice coating to the pasta. I then opted for the rhubarb and custard brulee. Again disappointed. Custard brulee in one dish and then 4 x 2 inch sticks of poached rhubarb, you couldn't cut this with the spoon. Biscuit was slightly stale too. The way dish was detailed I would have expected the rhubarb stewed like a compote below the brulee. Not really worthy of the cost. Not to mention the food was rushed through. 3 courses in an hour. Shame as could be amazing

Traditional Sunday lunch menu with other options if the 'roast' isn't your first choice. Locally sourced ingredients, well prepared & presented. Good selection of local ales and welcoming local staff. Yes, ticks all the boxes! Recommended and looking forward to a return visit.

Wow!!! Haven't visited here for a while but sooo glad we did! The food was stunning, service impeccable and other businesses in the South hams could learn a thing or two about offering decent homemade, imaginative, quality food at a fair price. The chef obviously knows their stuff. Meal was beautifully balanced. The menu choices were imaginative and enticing. The service was attentive and prompt in a full pub. You've restored our faith in finding somewhere that offers such great quality.

Booked a birthday dinner with a group of eight following a recommendation and The Ship gave us a wonderful evening. The food, range of wines and service were all excellent. We all chose different items from the menu and everyone was very happy with their choice. The meal was delicious and memorable. We'd definitely go back and would look forward to it too. Easy parking, lovely atmosphere on a Friday night and helpful staff. A great venue all round.

Since moving to the area last year, this was our 6th visit to The Ship Inn. Parking was easier than we expected, and the greeting was excellent. The restaurant area seems very large, going off into a far room. Tables aren't crammed in and vary in size. The menu was good and varied. The Sunday Roast fayre us exceptional in quality and £18.95 each. We have been there for supper too. I had a pint of Dartmoor IPA and my wife had a Diet Coke. I recall the bill came to around £90 for 3 of us but given the difficulties for pubs, the taste and quality of the food was well worth it.

We met up with friends from Hampshire and their Canadian visitors and enjoyed a delicious, relaxed meal in comfortable surroundings. The Scotch egg was pronounced a success, and we chose a variety of main courses. The fishcakes were delicious but maybe a bit more crab would have made them even better. Then the Peanut curry was a pleasant twist on the norm, and hugely enjoyed. Other mains were the chicken supreme, gammon and haddock and the empty plates a testament to their quality. Two puddings and coffee finished off what was a lovely evening. Many thanks to the staff and chef. Only issue was that we couldn’t tip on our cards and only a couple of us had cash for a tip. We would have been very happy to add to our bill to say thanks for a good evening.

Followed by a generous sticky toffee pudding. Such a friendly and relaxed environment (I believe we sat in the snug) lovely characterful building but with beautiful lighting too. Dog friendly which is a bonus. Will definitely recommend and be back again in the future! ☺️

Despite living about 2 miles away, we'd never actually been to the Ship Inn even though we'd been recommended it several times. So when family came to visit us, we took the opportunity and went. It's a lovely setting, in the village square, with a nice church opposite. We were spoilt for choice with the menu. My brother-in-law and mother-in-law both saying they could eat everything on the menu and were having a hard time picking. To cut a long story short, they both commented that the food was the "best they had EVER eaten anywhere" and that's quite high praise from a 60yo and a 85yo who have eaten at their fair share of places in their lifetime. Suffice to say, we'll be back.

My parents and I came here for an evening meal after a rather long day out. First of all, the staff were super friendly and cheerful - and made us feel uttermost welcome, which is really refreshing when coming into a restaurant/pub. Second of all, the food is some of the best food we've ever had: my step dad had the Arancini Crab Balls (which he commented were delicious) to start and had Hake for his main. He remarked it to be the best fish he has ever had in his entire life (considering he is a massive fish fan, that is rather exceptional). As for my mother, she is a vegan and was more than delighted to discover a proper and very well-made full vegan meal that she found incredible. I had the lamb rump which was some of the best lamb I've ever had, cooked to perfection with a brilliant sauce. Finally, the desserts were more than sublime and a very tasty end to an amazing and unbelievable meal. Truly confirming just how much of an incredible experience coming to this place was. My parents and I could not recommend this establishment enough - and we have booked again this same week, hungry to find out what the other foods on the menu taste like. Absolute perfection.

A beautiful pub and location. Unfortunately the food was not as good as it should have been. A very reasonable £8 for fish and chips on a Tuesday night however I am very glad that it was not full price at around £15. The chips and peas were poor (cheap freezer type) and the fish was not as expected from a coastal South Devon pub, lots of batter and a little overdone. Staff were not particularly welcoming to holiday visitors or children.
