The Ship Inn in Fenland

Proper old school pub. Friendly staff and customers. Good real ales sat by the river on a sunny evening. 👌🍺

30 years going from Bury St Edmunds to Ely, Peterborough etc and never called in at March.. A lovely little town with history and nice pubs.. Certainly know what they're doing.. Titanic Plum Porter, I'm often in Staffordshire and their premium ale. Girlfriend lives near Norwich so Wolf beers always on tap. The Wellington is a Wolf pub. Visited their brewery recently. Sly Wolf probably my favourite of all.. Then Timothy Taylor Landlord.. Champion Beer of Britain and multi award winning ale... I'll be visiting again soon..

Friendly bar staff and ale is always well kept with a good choice! Best pub in March

Great little.pub serving a good range if real ales. Camra approved and rated. More than happy to drop in for a cheeky pint. Barman highly knowledgeable about the pubs History.

This is a drinks only pub, no food served. Always friendly service and very cosy pub

No food served. Snacks only are available. The building is an ancient one serving drinks only. It's very small inside so can get very crowded at times. Some of the draught beers sell out very quickly.

Good beer, good atmosphere. Beautiful pub.

It's a fantastic place . Proper pub

Friendly, nice beer, good atmosphere :)

Real ale. Dog friendly. Log burner. Do you need anything more?

Lovely pub benefitting from a fairly idyllic location by the canal. Nice selection of real ales including a local owl beer new to me. Friendly staff and customers, great relaxed 😌 atmosphere.

I've been in and out of this place since shortly before my wife and I had our wedding reception here a title over six years ago. Always a friendly reception and always well kept beer. The tables are clean, the khazi is fresh and the location is ideal. Thank you, a great pub and a great team.

Had a little drink out by the river. We missed the cheese and pork pie platter though it did look nice and a lovely touch! Did feel a little shunned at the bar, perhaps it's because we're not regulars? It did have a hint of that feel about it unfortunately

Only went in for drinks but really nice pub very friendly and a good atmosphere

This place is a great night out sad thing u can't get a meal there and it is small in there nice pub though

It was nice to see the cultural as a foreign . Love it and the bartender was very nice and helpful.

Busy . Very minimal ...only popped in for a drink ...

Excellent pub, fantastic staff and friendly atmosphere. Best pub in march

We went here for Sunday roast and very enjoyable it was too even our two dogs enjoyed there beef dinner ( we were in the beer garden)

Beautiful atmosphere for a quiet drink with friends. Will definitely come back

Sat out front, enjoyed a quick half watching the geese in the canal / river

Best sausage I have ever eaten , amazing beer. Funny landlord , hot landlady looking forward to a booze cruise invite

Excellent pint of Taylor's at a reasonable price in a grade 2 listed Pub with plenty of character. Well worth a visit.

Good friendly pub in a great location.

Thanks for being welcoming to two city folk! Two great nights here, loved the pub and the view

Congratulations on your magnificent beamed ceiling

Only popped in for a drink. Very busy but bartender did good job of knowing who was next. Pint was good.

Great local little pub with great choice of tall ales

Small friendly town centre pub.

A really lovely little pub. Lovely young lady behind the bar.

Wonderful afternoon at the Ship live band that were brilliant great company and lovely friendly staff keeping everyone happy

This is what I call a proper pub that sells great beers and has an amazing atmosphere

Very friendly pub.Good atmosphere very cosy.Recommended .

Great local pub, that use to sell real cider. Its a lovely place to chill out.

Nice pub very busy quite noisy but seemed nice no issues.

Familiar, favourite pub that gets it right again and again. Quiet, warm, welcoming. Everything a local local should be and quieter than the library if you want to read.

A great GBG (good beer guide) pub which had an old interior and great real ale on

Proper pub, great atmosphere, staff very friendly. Highly recommended.

Great pub nice location friendly bar staff

Nice place for a drink .friendly people

One of the best pubs around and thanks to Hannah and all of the staff for having us! The moorings outside the pub are great

If it's changed only for the better. A year ish since I was in March and still the best bar (and staff) by far.

Fantastic pub, fantastic beer.... A real ale pub

Lovely wee local by the River. Nice range of beer and wine on the menu & they have a dart-board (bring own darts). Would be lovely to while away a day watching barges on the river. Dog friendly.

A must visit if your in March great choice of ales with v friendly staff right on the canal can get v busy at the weekend but worth it

A proper quaint old pub with loads of character and an eclectic mix of furnishings.. Staff & customers all friendly & welcoming. Dogs are welcomed and given treats every visit. No food but excellent beers at reasonable prices.

Brilliant night in a very good pub. Friendly, pleasant staff who don't keep you waiting. Had a live band the night I was in and they were great. Would go again

Probably the best pub in March, outside seating, differing real ales, nice interior.

Great pub, great landlord and staff.

Great evening on Friday for your anniversary at the Ship many thanks!

It my son pub just taken the grandchildren back.

Dropped by this morning on the off chance of having a breakfast, staff was very friendly and helpful, probably the best breakfast ive ever had out.... recommended by the local postman.

Lovely traditional friendly pub with a revolving range of real ales. Enjoyed an excellent pint of Thornbridge Jaipur there on Sunday afternoon. Nice atmosphere.

Lovely old thatched pub next to the river with orignal beams and bags of atmosphere. Full of happy, comfortable people eating anything from a traditional full english to an eggs benedict or avocado on toast. Even a vegan breakfast available. Portions are plentiful but not horribly excessive. The produce is mainly locally sourced (if not completely) with tasty local butcher's sausages (I always check the origin of meat). Fried bread was wonderful. Tea great quality brand and tasty not insipid water. Nicely presented in a mug and saucer. Service friendly but not crowding.

Wonderful atmosphere in Riverside thatched pub and great breakfast of locally sourced food. Extensive breakfast menu including vegan

Good pub to relax in with a nice pint.

Great breakfast, my friend and I try different places for breakfast and this is currently one of the best on our list. We go by flavour rather than quantity and this is just the right size too. I didn't have the black pudding it's about an inch thick and my friend said it was excellent.

Great little pub. And great local people. 1 st pint and people just chatting away. Mixed in straight away. Nice bar lady, chatty and helpful. Located next to canal. Seating out side and a good range of beers. Call in again when passing.

I remember going in, but don't remember leaving! Great place

I love this place because its quiet, authentic, friendly and its my local!! The food served at the weekend is amazing, THE BEST BREAKFAST IN MARCH PERIOD.

As always, really enjoyed our breakfast, thank you

Once again great choice of ales

Great wee looking pub cold beer friendly staff

Nice pub, friendly staff always a good place to start the night.

Nice little place overlooking the water

Great local pub. Best in March. Quirky and friendly staff. Reccomended.

Great beer great service ,great venue ,a visit to the ship always plain sailing !!!

Nice pub friendly staff and good ales.

Quaint, old Riverside Inn. With lovely heated garden at the back. Welcoming, friendly & efficient staff. Lovely pub!

Situated right beside the canal, this is the epitome of a locals bar - no hostility just but friends meeting up for a drink, Good service and excellent ales. If you're lucky, you might be able to grab a seat outside overlooking the canal

Tasty breakfast as good as ever. Accomadating staff and pleasant atmosphere.

How good can it be? This good! Absolutely brilliant atmosphere, service and the best staff. Looking for a breakfast? Can't be beaten. Available Wednesday through Sunday. Customer friendly and lout free. What more do you desire?

Local pub Great riverside location. Summer evenings spent watching the world slip by on the old course of the River Nene Always a good strong set of real ales.

Great service 👍👍i had ordered fish and chips from nearby they even brought me salt &vinegar and a fork .😁😁🍻

We went for breakfast which was first class. Staff welcoming and all covid rules in place. Felt very safe and recommend a visit.

Stayed in March for a few days. Went to the ship for our first evening. We were very impressed. Fantastic service from Hannah when she wasn’t wiping down the services constantly Thanks for a nice evening.

A really nice old pub close to the river bank. To be fair the breakfasts were very well presented but the only vegan option was avocado on toast, which was lovely with the coriander too, but I was hungry and it didn't quite hit the spot. A veggie sausage would have been good. No dairy milk alternatives and the coffee was rough.

Great for a quick drink or a few

One of the best pubs in March. Love this pub and the staff that run it..

Best pub in March by a long way. Nice atmosphere great location and really nice staff with a really great looking barmaid as well 😂

Lovely pub with good atmosphere

Traditional pub with pleasant atmosphere and generally chatty customers, friendly staff that take the time to present drinks attractively in the right glasses. Breakfast is always excellent, booking is advisable.

Called in twice when kayaking up the river. Very friendly staff and decent beer. Lovely to sit or stand outside by the river.

Visited once in all of 13 years, it's definitely improved as it used to look like a bit of a dump. Had a pint and breakfast (c'mon I'm English) sat outside and it was pretty good for the price.

Very nice place had a brilliant breakfast filled me right up , also loads of different beers to try 👌👍

Great beer smashing barstaff very welcoming pub,even let you take your beer to fish & chip shop 25yrds away ,if you ask!

A great pub for a drink & atmosphere - plenty of well-kept ales. Delicious & hearty breakfasts at a good price.

Fantastic pub great staff great place

Great independent pub, reasonable prices and great atmosphere

Everyone likes a friendly local with a good pint, you wont be disappointed when you visit The Ship Inn..

Beautiful food and a good pint to be had there..

8 of us today had the Ship breakfast. Our order was taken and despite the various requests on what not to have from the menu description, everything was acted on and served to perfection. Quality food ensured that all of our meals were of a very high standard and excellent value for money. Best to pre book if you want a breakfast here as table space is fairly limited. Once you have breakfast here, you will come back again another day.

We had breakfast today it was superb. Excellently cooked to order and piping hot. Served by friendly and polite staff. Excellent meal and good value for money. Would highly recommend. We then did some shopping and went back for drinks. Wide range of beer and gins. All in all a great experience My London no 1 gin and hubbies goose ale

Good atmosphere, good beer, good food, good pub

Great pub. Right in town centre. Nice covered area out back. Always busy.

Mick , jenny and Eva went to March on their narrowboat . We had already booked Sunday breakfast . It was superb . After 62 years it was established that I do like Black Pudding. Everything was top notch . This pub also sells the best beer in town . Thank you The Ship Inn team .

Long old wait to get served. Maybe because it was a busy friday, but the bar staff seemed very inexperienced. No chance of parking on the narrow road the pub is on so you need to park in the centre of the town and walk the last bit. Pub atmosphere seemed ok.

8 of us come here for breakfast once a month, service is superb and breakfast menu is fantastic. All food cooked perfectly - highly recommended

Cosey, welcoming, lovely breakfast!

Food is great. Friendly service and lovely atmosphere.
