The Ship Inn in East Riding of Yorkshire

Very cosy pub with great food, staff very friendly, dogs welcome throughout the entire pub not just in certain areas or outside. Short walk to a dog friendly beach.

Food good would e 5 star just had o wait a while for my food after others in group had half eaten ideal spot to park motorhome

Had a lovely Sunday carvery here for my 50th birthday. Stunning views.

We've just left and would like to thank you all for such a wonderful Sunday lunch.A big thank you for your help with my Dad.Amazing food and hospitality....

Fantastic autumn menu Food very good and staff very friendly Would recommend 100% and will be eating here again. One of the best meals we've had since moving to this area.

Had a winter fuel Wednesday, comprised of 2 courses, soup and a carvery or carvery and a sponge pudding and custard. We opted for the first option thick veg soup with a little bit of a kick Would definitely go ago, dog friendly too

Never eaten here, but it's very popular and food looks really good (I've seen a lot of empty plates). Decent, frequently changed, cask beers.

A really nice location with a great looking beer garden. A bit tricky from an accessible point of view (steps inside). No accessible toilet. Food was really nice - midweek meal. Staff were very friendly and efficient.

Have a nice meal whilst looking at the sea

We visited The Ship Inn in Swerby after seeing an offer online for 2 courses for £18, but once inside, the deal didn’t seem to exist—even though there was still a sign outside. That was a bit disappointing, but aside from the confusion with the menu, the food we had was great. The staff were wonderful, making a fuss over both our dog and our 1-year-old, which we really appreciated. All in all, despite the menu mix-up, it was a good visit!

We had the pensioners carvery. Absolutely delicious. Good choices of meat and vegetables. Generous portions. Quick service and great value. Lovely staff.

Warm friendly pub, serving good home cooked food

A great place to visit both for the evening ✨ or from a day out walking. Great food, real local ales and dog 🐶🐾🐾 friendly.

The carvery was a bit disappointing. The stuffing was rock hard, veg a bit too al dente (and I do usually like firm veg) watery cauliflower cheese and gravy and was all very bland. Yorkshire puddings were frozen and tiny/overdone. The meat and roast potatoes were the only saving grace. The young chef carving the meat should be given some credit. Very friendly and polite.

Best fish and chips ever. Can't wait to come back. Very friendly staff and lovely atmosphere.

Great food and service will be back

Excellent Sunday carvery with a choice of 3 roasts. Small selection of fresh vegetables and superb gravy.

Great pub good choice of beers, excellent views from the large beer garden

Booked a table for 4. We all had a starter and all enjoyed them. Also the main courses. I had an excellent ox cheek ragu. It has a large garden looking out to sea unfortunately it was chucking it down

Inside dining room had no atmosphere as there were only two tables occupied. Sat next to an empty serving counter. Food and service were fine.

Lovely coastal pub and restaurant. We used the motorhome parking facility (£30 per night) with £15 voucher to use on drinks and food. Staff lovely and very helpful. Has a lovely atmosphere and good menu. Food looked amazing. Very dog friendly and lovely coastal walk.

Lovely pub with a good menu,the food we had was tasty and very filling, staff very friendly. And the pub is dog friendly.

A fantastic spot to meet friends, great location, great food and beer. I was on a 1 day stopover and found this place by recommendation.

This pub is an absolute Gem , fantastic food, good choice of beers and ales , helpful and friendly staff, great outdoor seating area cosy little booths inside well worth a visit 👍🏼

Really nice and welcoming pub. Food was really nice, recommend for a nice lunch....

Just stopped for a hot drink whilst walking from Bridlington back to Danes Dyke. Nice outdoor seating area which has sea views.

Huge portions really cool garden and very dog friendly

Summer breezy and beautiful day, this is the perfect place to stop after the walk along the sea front from Bridlington. Friendly, swift service, attentive staff and a great beer garden for adults and kids alike. Been coming to this place since I was a child and I have many great memories along with new ones now from the recent visit. Highly recommend.

Dog friendly, relaxed atmosphere

We popped in today 20/9/24 for lunch and drinks for the first time here. Location was spot on with good parking and a friendly atmosphere. Good selection of drinks offered, but in our experience eat elsewhere as we found The food poor and the worst we have experienced in years eating out.

Had a family gathering in Bridlington this week, and a highlight has been 2 lunch visits to the Ship Inn. The staff were incredibly friendly and even offered to take our family photo. The food was delightful, highly recommend the fish and chips. Great memories made....Pippin our four-legged friend was made to feel most welcome.

Lovely Quirky pub with it's own parrot. Big beer garden.

Fantastic yet again !! View , beer , food and staff .. simply the best ❤️❤️❤️

Lovely beer garden on a sunny day and husband said the beer is good, BUT the food is appalling!! We went one evening last week but left without eating as there were so many complaints from people who were eating! Tried again today, in the beer garden, but bad decision! I had a rice bowl with chicken (oriental spices), but it was horrible! The chicken was barely visible, instead hidden inside a fatty crispy coating, and I think was probably thigh or even wing as so little of it! The sauce tasted like washing up liquid! Horrible. Husband had a burger but wasn't convinced it was cooked properly! We gave the Ship the benefit of the doubt after last week, but BIG mistake! Will go for a drink, but won't eat there again!

Our 2nd time staying here in the motorhome, and it definitely won't be the last. There are 5 pitches at the back of the overflow car park, and all give uninterrupted sea views. It's absolutely perfect, and for £30 per night with £15 voucher to spend in the pub, very good value. We loved it. As for the pub itself, the staff are very friendly and helpful and the food is very good, we couldn't really fault it. The parrot 🦜 is a bit moody but he isn't part of the service staff!!!! We highly recommend this place and will definitely return.

Superb food cooked fresh well presented had fish and chips batter was perfect fish moist well inprest

Good selection of real ale. Nice food and extensive menu. Doggy friendly, although my dog barked at the parrot 🦜🐕🤣 Massive beer garden, although we sat inside

The food was lovely and great value, I live local and the location is brilliant for me. We all enjoyed the food and the staff were really friendly.

It was okay. A little pricey for what you get, food-wise. Management didn't seem to have communicated what the event times actually were, as they did not match up with the board. Also, be aware, the small wall in the beer garden is HUGELY infested with ants. Avoid sitting on it.

I was at the coast for a weekend break, staying in a caravan so cooking - not really an option! Quick check on google for Sunday Carvery (was craving one) and The Ship Inn came up and it was a 10 min drive from where I was staying. Really large pub, and when I arrived I spoke to a member of staff who showed me to my pre-booked table. The carvery and ordering process was explained to me. I went for the large plate, and had Turkey & Beef - both were generous portions and the vegetables were piping hot. Gorgeous Yorkshire Puds (total must) and the gravy - my goodness that lived up to the billing on the menu. The pub had a large beer garden and it was busy with lots of guests. The staff were all friendly and welcoming, especially Josh who was serving on the the carvery. I will be back when I'm in the area as this carvery definitely deserves an encore visit.

Just had Sunday Carvery which was hot and delicious! The beef was a bit tough and overcooked but tasty. Leeks in cheese sauce, stuffing sausages and roast potatoes all lovely and mashed swede perfect. We will definitely be back but may avoid the beef which didn’t spoil an otherwise perfect Sunday lunch! Dog friendly is also a huge bonus for us.

Great place with a playground which the children enjoyed and an excellent sea view. Food good too.

Very easy to book online with the requirement of a deposit of £7.50 per head. Very busy inside, no organisation and nobody to greet guests on arrival. All staff were busy at the bar so we made our own way to the reserved table. When we booked there was an option for dog friendly dining, carvery room dining or tap bar. There was a note to say dogs may be present in the tap bar but you would assume dogs are not allowed in the carvery dining room especially as there was no note to warn you of this. However there were dogs in the carvery dining room - great if you are travelling with dogs (and the pub is advertised as dog friendly) but not great that there isn’t one area in this pub where dogs aren’t allowed. The service at the bar was very slow but staff were helpful. Food came very quickly and had mixed reviews. Some items were good and enjoyable. Other items were very average and one meal couldn’t be eaten at all. One server asked if everything was ok during the meal but walked off immediately so didn’t give us a chance to say anything. We did however share some feedback at the end of the visit. The whole place felt very chaotic, probably not enough staff for amount of customers and no organisation for those dining. Very unlikely to return and will try The Old Forge next time.

Food was good and so was the service but not 5 star

Extremely disappointed with fish finger sandwiches. Cheap fish finger used, you could tell by the grey looking fish fingers. Sad, as we'd been really looking forward to them.

Didn't have food,but it looked good. Lots of people eating. Lots of different dishes seen. Good portion, good presentation. Beer was reasonable price & cold. Staff helpful & friendly despite the busy times. Large Beer garden was relatively clean - it was extremely busy. Tables were quickly cleared. Child climbing frames in safe space. Dog friendly. Parking available. Good access to the coastal path. Recommended .

Delicious food served with a smile, highly recommended

Great food. The only complaint was the staff member we got seemed not to listen to our order. 3 mistakes with our order. All sorted in the end.

Hidden gem 😁 driven through Sewerby so many times never new it was there

love it here the staff are very friendly and the managers are very helpful, the food was very delicious

Great pub, excellent experience

Very busy Bank Holiday Sunday, service was exceptionally well organised so didn't have to wait. Had a girl accompanying herself on guitar who was excellent. Don't know who she was ???

If you're in Bridlington, well worth the walk along the coast to this little gem. Cosy inside, yet with loads of outdoor space for kids and dogs. Nice ale as well.

So sad,used to be a great pub.Went today,reserved a table for lunch,got there early and stood at the bar for 20minutes ,all bar staff walking by,completely ignored.Cancelled table and left,absolutely dreadful service…best avoided.

Fabulous Sunday carvery, live music and great wine, we had a beautiful lunch here what a fantastic location right by the sea, we'd highly recommend a visit 👍

First time here, really enjoyed everything about the experience, will be coming again. Thanks The Ship for the Carvery great Sunday lunch.

Absolutely love this place - everything is excellent from the atmosphere inside the pub, the beer garden, excellent food and amazing staff Love coming here

Didn't have food but they have a good varied menu, went back on Friday and had a roast beef dinner. Excellent

Very Very Unpleasant experience earlier this month, Order some Beer and 2 glasses of Ice, questioned why wanted Ice, just for the Beer and just to cool us down as a very hot day, asked if we had our own drinks with us, then soon as we get in the beer garden, the manageress comes outside to spy on us, and whispers to other staff to keep an eye on us. then another staff member kept popping to our table every 5 mins to try take our glasses away, very unpleasant experience, we always tend to pop into Sewerby when we visit Brid, and pop into Ship inn, definitely know to avoid now, really upset our child and just an unnecessary thing to do to us, considering how many times they've had our custom before!

Booked this as we weren’t sure where to eat on the first night of our stay in the area and wanted somewhere within walking distance of our hotel. We were a little early so thought we’d have a drink first. We said we had a table book and the waitress asked if we wanted to go to our table straight away which we did. We had to order at the bar which was ok and we ordered the sharing platter for £35. There was so much food! Lovely and hot (apart from the dressed crab which was amazing). We had to move to a bigger table because the platter was too big for the small table they had sat us at which was better as the small table had a broken leg and was wobbly! The decor of the pub/restaurant was old and tired which almost put me off ordering. There is however a nice outside area.

We stayed over in the motorhome and got £15 voucher per night included in the price to spend in the pub. I was a little unsure having seen some of the negative reviews, but I have to say we were pleasantly surprised with the food and service. We could really find fault with the food, it was perfectly acceptable. We have better but also had a lot worse. Only slight criticism is the price, which is a little steep. Other than that, there are no issues, and I would recommend it.

I've been a vegetarian for over 40 years and the bean chilli was one of the worst dishes I've had in that time. The red cabbage was cut into thick strips and chunks, the seaweed was inedible and the 3 been chilli was clearly made from opening a variety of tins . Really disappointing .

Good food and great staff. Average pub.

Great dog friendly restaurant and a lovely park for the kids to play on. Really nice food and great little outside bar. Would definitely recommend

Nice location, expensive drinks

Lovely place lovely beer garden

Stopped for lunch, had the crab and the chicken karaage bowl. Quick service despite being busy, really enjoyed it and will be back when in these parts again..

Limited choice of menu for vegan and vegetarian. Over priced too.

Great pub, perhaps ready for a new carpet but that's a minor problem when you serve fabulous fish and chips and Malfi Gin

Very good food, picked of the lighter bite menu for myself, my grandson and my elderly dad, but lovely genourous portions which we couldn't finish, the latter 2 could probably have shared one meal, and still been happy

Nice pub dog freindly highly recomend

Great dog friendly pub with good food, great staff and a sea view!

Went as a group of 11 on a Saturday, the food was very nice , all 11 dishes came out together no one was waiting , everyone enjoyed their food, waitress was spot on taking our orders, very chatty and polite, service brilliant, atmosphere very busy for early evening.

We were a family of four visiting for lunch while on holiday, spent £66. VERY disappointed. Fish was overcooked, was a small size, only looked bigger due to loads of batter which was hard and very salty. Gnocchi bowl was very mediocre, bland. When we stated we were not satisfied to the sever the response was "sorry about that" they clearly didn't care and made no attempt to make it right. Hence poor review. Would not visit here again or recommend. Also a bird in a filthy cage in the bar area which was very unhygienic.

Nice beer garden, good drinks. Close to the coastal path. Shame it stops serving food for an hour at about 16:00. Surprised that a pub in a in such a prime position, on a weekend stops serving. Overall though a nice place to visit.

Nice food, dog friendly, we went midweek early afternoon so only a few folk in hence only 3 stars for atmosphere, would go again

Friday night supper, good crab salade & tasty fish plate. Great service from our waitresses Shannon l!

Great service and even better food. Very dog friendly. Try the barbecue belly pork it's amazing, and the chips are top draw also. Will be back soon.

Good food 2nd visit of the day this time for evening meal. Quick and friendly service. Well worth the walk along the cliffs from Bridlington. Just hope we can make it back!

Great music and nice atmosphere on a Sunday afternoon. The bottle of Orange Wine went down a treat too!

Fantastic experience as always, great food, fabulous service would highly recommend to anybody.

Great spot for a drink, with lovely sea views from the beer garden. Wanted lunch but unfortunately they don't seem to cater for vegetarians so we sadly had to go elsewhere for food.

Sorry I can't tell you about food but the pub and it's ale are well worth sampling

Delicious food and nice location👌

Didn't know this isn't a child friendly place..was told to leave at 9..families need to be aware

Lovely, dog friendly pub. Good food. Good atmosphere. A little crowded when a doubles pool match is happening whilst there's dogs, kids and people eating! But it shows how popular it is! Staff seemed little frazzled and stressed. Outside area was lovely too with great views.

Second time here . Staff are so helpful especially debs . Nothing is too much trouble. Food is good

Recently stopped over at The Ship, in our Motorhome. I'd read mixed reviews but always like to judge for ourselves. Great location and we thought great value £30 to stay on secure pitch, no facilities, receive £15 voucher to spend on food and drink. Friendly staff and good food & selection of real ale. Would certainly reccomend and visit again. 5 🌟 👍 👌

Beautiful little pub right on the coast, with a great beer garden and some amazing views outside.

Stayed over a couple of nights in a motorhome, great spot, great pub and great proximity to Bridlington...Will be back

Had a really beautiful meal today at The Ship and a nice drink. SHIP FACED.

I went yesterday for the first time in a party of 4 and the food was amazing great Carvery,the selection of Ales was amazing as well,staff were very friendly and professional but the experience was spoiled by the fact i booked online and our table was reserved 12 until 1345 and we was told about 1325 that we only had 5 minutes left at the table so in other words will you drink up and leave which was very rude so I will probably not go back now again unfortunately.

Staff not bothered about anything. You go to the bar and asking for a big glass of wine, then barwoman says: we don't have any clean big glasses... flies ( a lot of flies) and quality of food from special menu very poor. Nobody bothered. We will ome back for a drink... but no for food.

Great clifftop views, lovely food and drink

Food is good quality and massive portions. Good specials board and many drinks choices, inc guested ales

Food was amazing really tasty loved the dirty fries Great staff very kind and brilliant service All round very joyous atmosphere Will come here again!

Food was amazing and the service was impeccable

Nice pub looking over Bridlington lovely walk up and back into the town

Popped in for a quick cider with friends. The bar staff were extremely helpful and friendly.

Lovely pub, well kept beers. Cheerful friendly staff. Excellent facilities.
