We had some relatives from Devon with their dog visiting the area and needed to find a decent dog friendly place to eat. I contacted The Ship, and they advised me that they were very dog friendly, so we booked a table for lunchtime. Because of the dog, we were given a table in the bar area with a hard floor, which was understandable. The pub/ restaurant was fairly busy, but it didn't really impact on the service, especially as there were just 2 staff members serving. The meals were well presented, plentiful and hot, and served with a smile. Two of us had whitebait main meals, one had grilled cod, and the other had the chicken burger. Everything was nicely cooked and good quality and we all really enjoyed the food. Three of us had really nice desserts, and we all came away pleasantly full. Will we return? Definitely! Especially as we only live less than 10 miles away.

We had a weekday lunch at the Ship. The food descriptions on the menu were outstanding. However, when served the food was bland. Service was poor. I asked for some sauce but it never came. Nobody asked if our food was ok either after we were served or when we were paying the bill. And nobody asked if we wanted more drinks!

4 of us went for Sunday lunch. The food was superb, tender and tasty meat, plenty of veg. The staff are always friendly and helpful too. We had a bit of a long wait for service because it was very full in the bar, which also meant that it was quite noisy. Overall though an enjoyable lunch.

Visited for an evening meal. The menu was very extensive, some usual pub food, but also some very interesting extras, including a good choice of vegan/veg options, which pleaded my god-daughter. The desserts also had some unusual offerings, I had the grenadine infused watermelon and blood orange sorbet, which was so light and delicious. The service was superb. So helpful and pleasant. Definitely going back to try more of the dishes!

First time there with friends, stood there waiting for someone to ask us if we had booked , we had, had to wait then was shown to table when pasta arrived had a long hair embeded in the pasta when said something discretely the waitress came back was almost blaming us as no one in kitchen had that colour hair, a sincere apology would have been nice instead of being flippant will not be going back again that’s for sure the atmosphere was horrible in there

A large group of us visited after a day at the beach. We dined in the garden room, which had a nice atmosphere. The meals we had were really well cooked, not the usual pub food and reasonably priced. The service was great (particularly considering the size of the group), and the staff were really friendly and attentive. Looking forward to the next meal after another next beach day 🙂

We booked The Ship to have an 80th birthday celebration for my parents. Not only is it local for them but all aspects of this pub are wonderful, the food, the staff, the service, the range of beers/drinks and the pub itself is clean and beautifully decorated. We had hired the use of a marquee next to the pub itself (they have two). Despite the rain (!) Sally and Sandra had everything ready for us and were welcoming when we asked to pop in early & put some balloons/banners up! Nothing was too much trouble and they were constantly on hand asking our guests if they’d like drinks etc. Tony kindly offered to open up one side of the marquee for us to make us all more comfortable. A delicious buffet was then brought out part way through the afternoon and everyone’s eyes lit up! It was amazing! From warm honey mustard sausages, to huge potato wedges, homemade coleslaw and sausage rolls and several different varieties of sandwich’s all made with fresh bread, to name but a few. Most of the food was eaten, Sally and Sandra then cleared it away and brought out some beautiful petit fours. Perfect! We can’t thank them enough for making us feel so welcome and making our parents birthday so special. We don’t live in this area but will make sure we try to pop in whenever we are now! Don’t think of The Ship as just a pub, it’s so much more. Thank you all so much, especially Sally & Sandra (we hope you enjoyed your cake!) xx

We were greeted in a friendly manner & had a very nice table as we were a Party of 7. The service was good & we all enjoyed the excellent food . The only criticism is the pie wasn’t a portion from a whole pie but meat in a dish with a pastry topping ( although it was nice .) Also the chips were not included with the Pork Belly . Otherwise we were very happy & would go again.

Waitress was plain rude. Avoided us to the point we had to get another waiter to call her over, also lied about portion sizes leaving our party unsatisfied with our meals. When serving drinks, she’d just put them on the far end of the table without saying a word leaving us unsure with who’s they were. If ordering a smaller portion of fish bring a magnifying glass to ensure you don’t miss it.

Good food and atmosphere, muscles were fantastic and packed full of flavour. The caramelised onion soup was for us at least to thick and strong. The steak would have been better if it came with peas or at least was available as a side order. Very busy, which is a good sign. I recommend booking a table and, if possible, not at the end of service to avoid popular items being unavailable. After another visit I can also recomend the soy squid risotto. The covered area in the garden is lovely and to me a better option during the day than in the main building. The beer garden us also spacious with plenty of bench tables.

Came for McDonalds, got a MIchelin instead... Randomly looking for a place for a late Sunday lunch roast following a weekend at a nearby spa and stumbled across this absolute gem. Luckily, they were able to squeeze the two of us in even though it was busy. The traditional pub vibes belied the exceptional food we were about to experience and the roast went out of the window when we saw the Specials menu! We had no idea we were in for such a gastronomic treat! Washed down with a wonderful stout (Parabellum) made this one of the best ever culinary surprises we've had especially as the bill was a little over for £60 for the two of us! Congratulations to all involved at The Ship. I will return...

Avoid. Very unwelcoming! We turned up for lunch at 12:30 and happy to see lots of space in the beer garden to sit. We had small children and wanted to get a light lunch. Went to order and told the kitchen was at capacity - despite the venue being not even 1/4 full, no tables in view being served food and they wouldn't even do a few bowls of chips. What struck us most was lack of effort to accommodate us in any way and the coldness of the welcome.

We are lucky to have The Ship as one of the local venues nearby to home (and to be honest probably should visit more often!). We booked tonight for the Monday Special Curry Evening, which I must say for the price paid was exceptional value for money! All the dishes tasted like they were made from scratch and fresh and piping hot. We enjoyed a welcome drink (included in the price), then poppadoms and dips. The star of the show though was the main dish which simply put was top drawer and equal to any great curry house. I had the Minted Lamb Curry which had large chunks of tender lamb in a slightly spiced sauce. The portions were generous and for a large bloke I didn’t leave feeling at all hungry at all. A massive thumbs up to the those at The Ship and all credit to the kitchen team… it was spot on tonight! £16.00 for Poppadoms & Dips, Choice of curry, Rice & Naan and complementary drink…. You just can’t go wrong for that price.

This pub is really lovey on the inside and outside. Went here with my family for the 1st time today and I have to say we were all disappointed with the food and service. Not much of a choice if you are a vegetarian. 4 of us ordered a roast dinner, mine being the vegetarian, I asked for the mushroom tart to be removed as I dislike mushrooms and had extra potatoes and veg. To me potatoes looked like they had been cooked from frozen and there was 2 lamb dinners where one of them was nearly raw lamb. No one came to ask us if everything was ok and we had to keep waving a waitress/waiter down. I could not recommend this pub/restaurant based on the roast dinner, but I’m sure lots of other people like this pub based on their reviews. I will not be visiting again.

If I could give more stars, I would! The staff and ambience are perfect, a wonderfully welcoming pub, clean and warm, you couldn’t ask for more. We visited The Ship yesterday for a family lunch and wasn’t disappointed. We’re very lucky to have this wonderful pub on our doorstep and have never had a bad meal or experience. I wanted to take my daughter, her husband and our grandson for a meal we knew would be delicious, and it certainly was! I had the saffron paella which was out of this world! We also enjoyed the curries, lamb burger and my wife had the king prawn starter as a main meal! To accompany our meals, my son in law and I carefully chose some of the delicious ales on tap, wow! However, my only very slight “criticism” would be that no one pre warned me about “Black Dragon”!! A heavenly tasting cider with lethal repercussions! I’ve never had such wobbly legs!! If you’re feeling brave don’t hesitate to order a pint! But seriously, thank you to all the staff, we’ll be back as soon as we can - Doug Atkin 😊

Lovely food in a friendly unpretentious pub. We are staying at the Spa at Thorpe-le-Soken and have come from Brighton. We were delighted to find this very pretty pub with loads of flower displays outside in nearby Kirby-le-Soken. The food was good value and there was plenty of choice. I had chicken on a cannellini bean, sage and apple cassoulet, which was delicious. My husband had homemade onion bhajis which were also very tasty. He also had a steak and ale pie that he said was full of tender steak. Our puddings were also very unusual but extremely good. A tahini flavoured crème brûlée with a homemade sesame thin. My husband had the coffee and walnut mess. Was thrilled to find a glass of wine cheaper than the spa prices too! A lovely dining experience with a couple of kind and down-to-earth waitresses serving us. Totally recommend!

Just for reference we had the mussels , the white bait , the tandoori sizzler and all cooked to perfection . The service was also commendable , didn't rush us and whenever we needed something there was a quick response . My only problem is I live 120 miles away but next time in the area will definitley be back . Thank you the ship inn

Fantastic fish and chips - we ordered and paid online (easy and completely hassle-free) and we arrived a few minutes early and our order was made up there and then. The fish is really fresh and it has been cooked in fresh, clean oil, which allows you to taste all the flavour of the fish. And the chips are great, too!

We popped in for a Sunday roast for the first time since the pub went under new management last year. WOW! The best roast dinner I’ve had in a restaurant ever. The meat was tender, the potatoes were perfectly crisp, the gravy was out of this world. I opted for a side of cauliflower cheese, which was delicious. The service was amazing too, lovely friendly staff who couldn’t have done more for us. Highly recommend! Can’t wait to go back.

Overpriced on the cod and chips portion was small and frozen chips from a bag fish was ok should have gone somewhere else.
