The Ship Inn in Pembrokeshire

Friendly staff and locals. Dog friendly. Nice real ale. Great atmosphere.

Stunning beer garden and view (not many of those around anymore!). The vegan burgers and chips were inspired - not your usual run of the mill, and delicious. And the staff we're really friendly too. It's easy to see why this is a popular pub!! Wish we could go again!

Friendly service, nice ambience. Good food.

Best battered cod ever. Absolutely the kindest staff. So helpful

Lovely walk from Trevin to Porthgain and back, followed by a great lunch in the Shop Inn at Trevin, well prepared food, good size portions all in a friendly setting. Highly recommended

Didn't eat, just crisps and beer in garden as it was sunny. Dog friendly through out pub, food looked good and it's open every day.

This beautiful little pub holds a piece of my heart. Always a warm welcome , good company , lovely food and drinks .

Unfortunately, there was an influx of customers and the staff and the till systems failed to support the quantity!

I think that maybe we tried this at the wrong time - The lunch menu is considerably shorter and less interesting than the full menu, so maybe we would have been better going in the evening. Having said that though, when you order sausage and chips somewhere, I would imagine that most people would expect to get more than two catering style sausages, and handful of chips for a tenner…! It was extremely disappointing, and I wouldn’t particularly put myself out to go there again. I’m giving it three stars, as the other person with us ordered scampi, which he enjoyed, although to be fair he did get more of a plateful…! The stuff were very nice, and the pub itself is a pleasant place, but I can’t see that I would go back there to eat in a hurry.

Haven't been here for a long time and it was just how I remembered, but the food was so much better, great pub

Had a great time here for an Open Mic music night. Don't actually know about the rooms as we didn't stay, but the service and food are great. Location was handy as we were staying in the village. Lovely atmosphere and some excellent music. Thanks to all for a memorable evening.

Excellent veggie curry (half 'n half of course) and the chips were superb! Update: food, beer and atmosphere even better now. Highly recommended.

Friendly staff, great beers including local ales and really good food. Best veggie burger I've had in a while. Dog friendly. ❤️

Great little pub, clean and cosy. Food was delicious, staff friendly. Would highly recommend.

We were staying in the village and popped in for evening meal a couple of times. Food was ordered over the bar and served in good time. Very nice pub grub and a nice pint to go with it

Tthankyou so much for a lovely lunch and going to the extra special service for the vegetarian. I Ctually ended up wanting his meal. Keep the smiles going and that extra special service

Most frankly the best squid rings I’ve ever had.

This used to be a great little village pub and once did great meals like Sunday roasts but it now mainly serve extremely overpriced ready meals and frozen cooked food!! The pub was once good and had lots of venues of verious different bands and entertainment playing every few weeks but no longer dose this since the change of management I would not recommend this place at all.

For pub: Great food and service, nice atmosphere. For room: We stayed two nights. Breakfast situation imperfect, and bed not great (but fine). But the room offered a nice space for ourselves, and while you shouldn't try to sleep before 11pm afterwards it's real quiet.

Excellent food served by friendly staff, a good local pub which also allows dogs with excellent beers, which we hope will prosper in the years ahead

Friendly service, excellent value, cosy surroundings and most importantly good real ale (3 on tap) and nice wholesome food.

We stayed at an Airbnb just down the road. Turned up on a Saturday evening after a very long journey hoping that they did food. We were not disappointed. Beautiful view from the beer garden. Very dog friendly. It was a lovely evening so we ate outside by choice. I don't know if dogs are allowed inside. The pale ale on draught was excellent as was the Madri. The food was good old fashioned pub grub and the service was good and friendly.

Lovely pub, very dog friendly and welcoming. Staff were brilliant, food was tasty and the local pint I had was excellent.

Arranged a surprise birthday party at The Ship Inn Trefin with Hayley (Bar Manager) and Sean (Chef). They were both really helpful, as was the owner, Paul. The team were a real pleasure to deal with: approachable, personable, easy-going, efficient, and nothing was too much trouble. The food (in this case a meat chilli, veggie chilli, rice, and lots of accoutrements) is a cut above, it really is. Highly recommended.

This is my local and has improved massively after being taken over by someone else,hats off to chef who coped extremely well as it was busy and he was on his own, food was lovely.

Lovely old pub and good food. We had the steak and guiness pie which was lovely. Would recommend.

Warm & friendly welcome & the food delicious. I recommend the Glamorgan veggie sausage & mash. Lots of fresh well cooked veg too!

Great freshly prepared food and local beer/ale plus wonderful service - just perfect after a long day of hiking. Totally to be recommended!!

A most delightful village pub that was bustling when we visited. Have been here before and once again had a very nice dinner and a pint of Sea Fury - can highly recommend. Nothing fancy just honest to goodness fare with cheerful staff.

Well worth a visit, decent food menu and a good atmosphere about the place.

highly recommended, first they were very helpful with a free room (nearby at the hostel! recommend that too!!!) we had leek and potato soup which was cery good, the beef Burger was nice, and the Highlight was the berry Apple crumbleTart with custard! very cosy to seat and the waitress was really helpful and nice. thanks for the great dinner :)

Perfectly located on the Coast Path. Good food and spacious room (unfortunately the kitchen steam suit was right in front of the window in our room). The breakfast is very ready in the room, so you can have breakfast as you wish. Dinner at the Inn is also highly recommended.

Very cozy pub. The food is good. Nice atmosphere and friendly service. Nice pub with good food and friendly people

Great pub in beautiful seaside village. Brilliantly kept ale and cider. I thought the food was absolutely superb. Home cooked leak and potato soup and steak and Guinness pie could not have been better. Best meal I've had after 7 days on the Pembrokeshire coastal path.

Very friendly atmosphere, amazing traditional pub with great food. We had curries and chilli con carne. Would recommend!

Awesome pub in the village we were staying in. Great food, dogs allowed, brilliant staff and a good selection of beers/ciders.

A welcome stop after a day exploring the area. Clean, plenty of space inside and out, dog friendly.

The perfect stop for a walk along the coast, we enjoyed massive paninis and chips in the sheltered garden and soaked up some sun.

Visited the area and this pub was recommended by our host and some locals and it didn’t disappoint. The portions were much bigger than we have back home and it was a shame we couldn’t finish the food because it was absolutely wonderful. Staff were very kind and helpful.

Stayed in Trefin over the half term and popped in here a few times after long walks. Traditional pub with roaring fire and good food. Large portions and very tasty food.

Just come back from 6 nights in Trefin at a lovely cottage in the village. This is the only pub in the village and its great, warm and welcoming, dog friendly, very chilled out with good choice of drinks and snacks. We spent every evening here with the kids mostly just having a pint (or 3) and playing pool. On our last night we had dinner here too. Fabulous food and big portions. The locals are friendly, real fires in both rooms (great this time of year) and plenty of games to play. Prices are reasonable and the beer is great (especially the Sea Fury Ale which was superb!).

A genuinely quality pub: good selection of beers, delicious food, great service, friendly locals, roaring fires, pool table, games.... An absolute gem!

Amazing very clean and friendly. Sara was brilliant! Would highly recommend.

Good old fashioned pub in a lovely village.These kind of pubs need to be used so we don't lose them,good selection of beers aswell.

A wonderful local with an amazing, great value Sunday carvery,. Can’t fault it!

We are stating very close by, and decided we'd do a circular walk here with our two dogs. Our Visitors Book had lots of comments that the food was good here, so we thought we'd have lunch when we finished our walk. So, we got to the pub just after 12 noon. There was a notice in the window stating that off season, they didn't open till 2pm. So we we decided to go off and look at the lighthouse at Scrumble Head and return later. We arrived back at 2-15. We went in the pub, and picked up the menu, only to be told that it was the evening menu, and they didn't serve lunch during the week. So we left - and won't be returning. As we approached the car park, there was a party of 4 just arriving. I told them about no lunch, and they immediately got back in their car and drove off. So that's probably over £120 worth of revenue thrown away. Why do the flyers in holiday cottages not state this? Sorry guys, you shot yourself in the foot ....

Had a beautiful lunch here today, had the soup for starters and fish and chips for mains everything was very tasty and piping hot.

Fantastically kept local Welsh beers and delicious food. Warm and welcoming both to locals and holiday makers alike. The staff were fabulous - chatty and informative of the local attractions. We were made to believe this was out longstanding local, although we were only there for the week. Hats off to Andrew out friendly barman who even came in on his day off to say goodbye. Can’t praise the place any more highly. Top notch!

Lovely food, friendly customers, great service. Hoping to holiday in Abercastle again and will certainly return. Jeannette and Hannah

Had a Friday evening meal at The Shop. Good food, well cooked and of particular note...excellent curries! Beautiful rice, hot naans and perfectly spiced Jalfrezzi👍. Good beer on tap and from the pump. They say an establishment is as good as it's staff...well The Ship is right up there!! Bravo!

What a lovely place,its full of character plus its a very warm welcoming place to unwind

A rare fined,a ordinary traditional pub,cod and chops very good,prices good,at least 20%lower than St.davids,friendly staff,I highly recommend this village pub,

This is an absolutely delightful pub in the village of Trefin. The bar staff are amazing, warm and welcoming; very happy to greet the dogs too. Superb food, served very quickly considering how busy it is. The pub has an excellent selection of beers and ciders all in appropriate glasses! Very good value for money, all served in a snug, old school but very clean and organised public bar. Couldn't have been more friendly and welcoming.

We live locally and know of the Ship inn but haven't been for meal there since current owners have been running it, but we had heard good reviews. I decided to have my wife's surprise birthday party here last week and they catered for it just perfectly. The back room was just right for the amount of people invited and there was more than enough buffet food for the guests. Great communication from the manger leading up to the party, very friendly staff and great value for money. Thanks again for a brilliant night and hope to be down soon for a bar meal.

Wir haben zwei Nächte im Ship Inn verbracht und waren sehr zufrieden. Das Gästezimmer ist sauber und gemütlich mit grossem Bad. Es liegt direkt über dem Pub, ist aber trotzdem ruhig. Für das Frühstück, das man selber zubereitet, wird alles zur Verfügung gestellt, inkl. hartgekochte Eier, Käse, frische Früchte und mehr. Uns hat es Spass gemacht, den Tag auf diese Weise zu starten. Das Essen im Pub hat uns geschmeckt, ebenso das lokale Ale. Im Biergarten hat man eine schöne Aussicht auf die wundervolle Landschaft und man kommt schnell ins Gespräch mit anderen Gästen. Uns hat der Aufenthalt sehr gefallen. Ein guter Ort für eine Pause von einer Wanderung auf dem Coast Path.

Wow what an amazing transformation by Paul. The Ship Inn is back. Best fish and chips I have ever had.

Did eat juts had a drink a bit disappointing after walking over to it taking 2 hours to get there

couple of well deserved Stowford presses

Cosy little seaside pub. Food was perfectly average, no frills but filling and arrived quickly and priced as expected. Was quite amazed that this place had no baby changing facilities but did have a high chair so after a car park change we all enjoyed some dinner

Incredibly great host, quaint bar and really top food. Actually, I'm not a fan of many different dishes (from different regions). But here the chef knows his craft. Great location included. :-) Small hint: stay there a few nights in the upper located BnB

Lovely lunch on a sunny day away from the crowds in Porthgain. So good to see the rejuvenation of this village pub. The lunch menu is straightforward pub food but very well executed with good quality ingredients - so tasty cheese and proper scampi. A good range of beers and lagers kept in great condition. Add to that a warm welcome, pleasant beer garden with beautiful country views all 10 minutes walk from the coast path.

Topp Service delicious meals. Paul and his staff are very kind.

Been many times over the years and it’s great to see the pub busy and serving great food. Had the burger which was excellent. Great atmosphere with friendly staff and the live music is brilliant. Well worth a visit.

Lovely little pub in Trefin. Good atmosphere and foods. Fab puddings. Staff very welcoming. Dog friendly. Parking on site.

A lovely friendly country pub with a good atmosphere, serving great food. Our family of six enjoyed a great meal together with wonderful views of the countryside and excellent service. The portions were large and everything was really fresh. A couple of us had pizzas which were very tasty with a thin crust, I had a flavourful burger which came with a nice sauce and fresh salad. The others had fish and chips which were truly amazing. The fish was covered in a light batter and we all commented on our lovely chips. We would definitely visit again.

Really good Ale, shame the out side area fails to receive the necessary attention, tins and glasses on tables and grass, staff just walk past

Great food, perfect if you have a dog and in a quaint village. Good for an afternoon refreshment or as evening entertainment!

Looked at the reviews and seemed good, could not find much on the route home. Chef was sick and had "home made" meat pizza with way to much sauce with some lime and soda, also cheesy chips for about £20 Hope the chef recovers soon

We walked the coast path and managed to catch the sunset at the Trefin end of the walk and called into the Shop Inn for a drink and hopefully a meal if they were still serving. They sure were we were the only ones in at the time and got 2 great pizzas some of the best Elderflower drink that wifey has ever tasted and got a can to take away with us too! My Dog Enzo also got his own dog bowl. We narrowly missed out on chocolate pavlova but we’d love to come back earlier another day and give it a go! Great place and great staff many thanks.

I was here waiting for a friend and though I just had a coffee at a time that was quiet ,I felt entirely relaxed, at ease and welcome. The decor is so interesting and the information gained about the building and local area is fascinating. Well worth a visit!

Good food in nice pub atmosphere. Burger was great. Tagine was more like a curry, but tasty enough. Can get busy so book ahead.

This pub has had a major facelift for 2023 - so cosy with a lovely friendly atmosphere. As a solo female traveller, I’m completely comfortable having dinner here or a drink. Good pub style food. It’s not cheap but it’s good value and you are helping to preserve the heart of the village,

Amazing little pub with fantastic staff, great area. There's nothing more to say...just fantastic.

Only stopped for a quick drink here, a latte and 3 soft drinks. Service was great, incredibly friendly. The history there is incredible. Loved all the pictures on the wall. Looking forward to returning soon for longer

Tipico pub donde comer, beber buena cerveza local y tienen habitaciones .

Great pub. Interesting (very) old bar, newer dining room and a garden. Three real ales which change regularly and were well kept. A good food menu including a choice of proper vegan options.

Well run pub. Ignore older reviews as it has new (ish) owners.

Visited the ship Inn yesterday for the first time for 55 years as last time I was a child who camped in Trefin with my parents We had a warm welcome we decided to have some lunch the food was excellent and presented well

Lovely local pub, great food and excellent service. Nice beer garden too!

Recommended to eat here by campsite owner nearby. Small village pub with cozy bar and restaurant with a large dining area at rear. We booked night before and had table in small restaurant area which was lovely. Ordered beef chilli con carne and hubby ordered bbq pork ribs and bottle of Merlot. Wine was very nice and food was delicious. This is no frills cooking ie no silly lettuce and pointless stuff as adornment (garnish with hot food a personal pet hate of mine) - proper home cooked tasty food. Really enjoyed the chilli which had nice heat but not too spicy and generous portions. Had sticky toffee pudding and hubby had summer fruit crumble, both really delicious. Would definitely recommend and return next time camping in the area.

We have really enjoyed visiting the Ship Inn during our stay in Trefin. The food is homemade and delicious. My husband’s favourite was the Beef and Guinness pie and I loved the fish and chips. A good choice of real ale too. If you are walking the coastal path it is a great stop off point for lunch.

One of the best pubs in the area, very friendly, nice garden with fantastic views and above all GREAT Beer. Happy 😊 days.

Lovely homecooked food. The staff were very friendly and helpful. There is a beautiful garden which you can sit out in and look at the lovely views.

Really nice friendly pub with good beer and food. Good to see it being used by locals as well as holidayers. Worth checking that they have space if you want to dine in on a weekend. They also do a takeaway option.

Good food generous servings. Beer is great with a good selection suitable for a wide range of tastes. Also Welsh ciders which is good to see. Also like the use of welsh language alongside english

Very nice eating place and friendly staff and the food was well cooked and nicely presented will go back again if in the area.

Lovely food, pleasant location,fair prices.

Popped in lunch time with friends the fish & chips was amazing will definately visit again soon

Great Old Pub with great pub food , my wife and I walked to this pub and it was excellent . Completely dog friendly ( May put some people off ) , we ate here in two consecutive nights, my wife had the tagine both...

Very friendly and welcoming pub

A very nice local pub with excellent pub grub combined with friendly and efficient service. Enjoyed our meal here and will happily return when next in the area.

Attentive service. Food was good, with a fair choice on the menu and some decent veggie options. The sticky toffee pudding was delicious. Views from the beer garden are beautiful.

Fabulous views, great cycling stop

The Ship is a good pub offering traditional food in a nice setting with friendly staff. Our table was booked as requested and whilst there were no starters (just light bites) on offer the food was traditional pub fayre and very tasty. Wine list was...

Dog friendly place Really nice staff Took a souvenir from them ;)

Excellent service. Meal was grand.
