The Ship Inn in East Riding of Yorkshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

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.

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

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 👍

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

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!

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

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

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

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..

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.

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

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!

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!

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

Food was amazing and the service was impeccable

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.

Its a tradition to call in at the Ship Inn every year on holiday, a great selection of cask ales & today didn't dissapoint 😃🍺

A wet Monday afternoon cheered up by a lovely lunch for me and my 91 year old Mum, in a pub we always visited with her and Dad when on holiday in Brid..brought back lovely memories for her. Definitely recommend Fish and Chips..

Previously posted a 3 star review here, but I have visited several times since and sampled more of the food and service.. I'm very impressed. Fish and chips beautiful!!

Fabulous place good food excellent service, love this place always have since I was a lad 60 years ago ,never let me down one of my go to place's when I'm in the area 👍

The meal selection was dreadful. We ate there on 3 Nights. Sunday roast only 2 meats available, Turkey had gone. The pork was the end of the joint, complete fat inedible. Total disaster. Night 2 was just passable. Night 3 was a total disaster, prawns on toast looked disgusting and tasted disgusting Inedible again All in all 4 of us spent £350, never again. Would not recommend you to anyone due to the quality of food and selection. You really need to change the menu selection and get a new Chef. We have eaten all over Bridlington and yours is the biggest disaster. Warning everybody about your food. 😥😥

The staff were all brilliant so friendly and helpful. We had the shawarma chicken, the Flamborough crab platter and Bockvurst hot dog... all tasted lovely, very generous portions too

Good food, helpful staff. Lovely outlook of the sea.

Good parking here and easy access to the pub and beer garden. I had a special which was a burger with blue cheese that was really good. The welcome was warm with the staff being very polite and friendly. Nicely decorated in the pub giving loads of atmosphere.

Quirky pub with a resident parrot! There's a bar/eating area with TV plus another restaurant area which is up some steps. This is also where the disabled toilet is, they said they have a ramp for wheelchair users. Nice garden overlooking the sea. Quite a nice menu plus a specials board.

Very good range of tasty food, including daily specials. I can recommend the Sri Lankan curried monkfish. Local crab dishes too. Warning: their Sunday roast dinners finish at 5pm when the kitchen closes, so we were caught out. Very dog friendly - their menu is almost as good as the human one! Good ales. Friendly service. Good value.

Lovely friendly pub in a great location next to sewerby hall. Reachable by land train or public transport. Didn't have food but it looked nice

Nice place, had Sunday lunch. No stuffing which dropped a star. Dog friendly

Great day out in Seweby then called for lunch,Dog friendly too

Called in on the off chance of dinner, great food, all staff lovely, professional and helpful, really enjoyed, will definitely call again, thank you Shannon and all the bar/restaurant staff.

Lovely impromptu carvery lunch Great staff that squeezed us in with no prior booking Would recommend

Great place very welcoming love it.

Just had 3 hrs here....the atmosphere outside was great! The social side....brilliant! Booked a table for the two of us at 5, enjoyed the outside so much was able to extend it 30 mins. We ordered fish and chips, fishfingers and fries with a side salad. These were disappointing! My husband walked home not very well! We didn't enjoy them at all.

Wonderful friendly pub in a lovely location serving delicious home cooked food. Shannon looked after us very well. Excellent service by lovely staff. Thank you. 🙂

Good Food, Good Atmosphere, friendly staff and a brilliant choice of ales. The kind of pub I would like as a local. Sadly we don't live in Sewerby.

Here on holiday and stopped with friends for a drink. Amazing service from Shannon and Joe. Shannon offered to carry out some of the drinks as we were outside. She was chatty and helpful and a great ambassador for customer service! I’d hire her tomorrow!! Will definitely recommend and if time allows will call back! No scores for food only because we didn’t eat.

Great atmosphere with welcoming staff, good varied choice of food.

Sat in the Beer Garden, ordered 2 Diet Cokes & we had Chicken bites with Fries & Salad. Enjoyed the meal & had a chat with some other fellow visitors. Would book a table inside next time for our next visit.😁👍🍽🥤🥤

After walking to Danes Dyke and back on a sunny afternoon, we were certainly ready for a snack and a pint! The Ship fulfilled our needs admirably! Friendly staff and atmosphere - and divine chips!

I decided to order beef dirty fries burger but I don’t like beef so I asked if I could switch to chicken and they didn’t hesitate with saying yes! Amazing dog friendly environment and staff so sweet and kind to us! The pie and mac n cheese were also amazing! High recommend!

Great food. Large portions. It's not cheap but worth the money. Friendly staff and dog friendly. Highly recommended .

Called in with family, lovely well run friendly pub. Great atmosphere, very good staff. Will definitely call in again.

Absolutely loved this place. Went 2 days in a row. Lovely friendly staff and the food was great.

Ship Inn is the best place to be! Great food, great staff and when the sun is out perfect! Highly recommended A++++

Lovely food, friendly people & good prices

We booked last minute whilst on holiday in Flamborough, and we are so pleased we did. Excellent food, friendly and efficient staff and great music. What more do you need? We left happy, relaxed and very full. Great place to visit.

The place you want to eat foods good staff are better I'm a regular customer 👍👍😄

Stayed overnight in a motorhome and had a great stay.

Absolutely love this pub, great food, beer and staff. Love coming back as much as I can

Cracking pub with good food, good beer and a lovely atmosphere. Was about an 8 minute walk from the lodge we stayed in. Will definitely be visiting again on our next trip.

Lovely little pub, staff are great and very reasonably priced

Fabulous service and food, grateful for the recommendation to visit here. We will be back l.

Went for Sunday carvery only thing I could pull it down for was aunty bessys Yorkshire puddings a place as good as this should have homemade 😀

Poor quality meat in the pies very very tough and fatty.peas were cold.staff friendly and good atmosphere

Friendly good old-fashioned pub atmosphere . Lovely staff serving excellent meals

Good knowledgeable staff very friendly good selection of wine and beers the food is very good 👍 nice views over the sea

Had a great carvery on Sunday. Highly recommended by all the family. Really liked the decor and outside kids play area. Very good food.

Just been for a family meal, service at the bar was shocking waited ages to be served. Then I was told my pint of real ale was...settling...took 5 minutes. Food came within 5 mins of ordering so clearly not fresh. Fish and chips were awful, like a kids portion and greasy. Chilli and rice stale and tastless. Chicken burger like a house brick. Clearly not cooked fresh. We won't be going back. I'd go elsewhere if I was you.

Well won't be coming here again. Just spent £60 on a meal for my family of 3. Rude staff too busy chatting , waiting ages for a pint of real ale to... settle appropriately. Food came within 5 mins which I thought was a bit quick so clearly not fresh. Fish and chips was like a kids portion, chilli was old and stale , rice hard and not nice, chicken burger again kids size and all meals totally not fresh. We won't be going back again. Very disappointed.

Fantastic food, a beautiful location. Well worth the money. We had a party of 11 and everyone enjoyed their food. Stunning.

Good menu choice and dog friendly

Lovely pub, friendly staff and the food was exceptional

Visited the Ship Inn whilst having a day trip to Bridlington with family & our dogs. The pub & beer garden was fairly busy with it being the BH weekend. The food was lovely as usual and the food from the upgraded doggy menu was enjoyed by the dogs. I would highly recommend this pub.

A large multiroomed pub, where most of the seating is set for eating purposes. This is indeed an eatery pub that serves the local seaside resorts around Seweby and probably Bempton. The food is an extensive platter from burgers, fish, chips, and pies. Also, sandwiches are available. There are 5 real ale handpulls available (but up to about 2 of those may not be ready to dispense at the moment of purchasing, as I have noticed on the 2 times that I have visited). These beers are generally kept well. There is also the usual supply of keg beers and spirits, etc. So, a variety of drinks and food is available throughout most of the day. It is also open at 11 am. A large good beer garden is available, which looks over towards the cliff path and coast. Also, the nearby Sewerby Hall. As seaside pubs go, this is a good one. It's probably unchaged since the 80s, which makes it a fun traditional seaside pub. Family and dog friendly with plenty of parking in the car park and overspill carpark. I think it is wheelchair accessible. I didn't see any wheelchair ramps, but a small step will need to be overcome at one of the back doors. I'm sure the staff could advise or help in any difficulties, as they seemed friendly enough on my 2 visits. All in all, it is a good pub for food, that also makes an effort to provide real ale at a good quality. A family pub.

Lovely stop off on the walk from Bridlington.

Poor service - rude young female bar staff. Stood waiting for service and to request a table, qas walked pased numerous times to be told thier was no table avaliable however while still.in the building they removed the reserved sign and gave the table to someone else.

Came here for some food and to be honest it was overpriced for what it was.. bland undercooked brown chips and also fish batter was raw needed another 3.mins in the fryer.... Beers not cheap either and the service was decent... Not a bad place.

Food ok but expensive for a pub meal and £26 for a bottle of wine that costs £8 in supermarkets or less when buying in bulk is a joke. Depressed parrot in a small cage in a draughty corner didnt add to the ambience
