The Ship Inn and Greenodd Brewery in South Lakeland

Looked at pictures and menue. Drove here, only to find it's closed. Looks like it's been closed for years

Closed and doesn't look like opening again any time soon

Great food, great ales, dog freindly and excellent fire with comfy sofas

Had a pint and a cider. Local ale Greenood brewery very nice ,when in Rome. And met a lovely chap called Jim and when a I say chap he was actually a dog. Sat with me on the couch in front of log burner. Much easier to handle than the old bird.🤣

Had a really lovely meal at the Ship with the family to celebrate mums birthday The food was epic, very tasty and enjoyed by all And Archie the dog was made very welcome too The chap at the bar who served us was really brilliant, friendly engaging and very efficient, the owners/landlords also took time out from Christmas tree decorating duties to come over to check all was ok with us and have a chat A nice proper warm friendly welcoming cumbrian pub and we all hope it stays so just a shame we are not locals to enjoy it more often

Home of the Greenodd brewery so my first taste of their beer. Excellent real ale. Fantastic village pub a short distance off the main road. Loved the beer. Great atmosphere. Very good pub food. Lovely fire. Small car park but plenty of on street parking. Well worth visiting.

Arrived at opening time on the last evening of a week staying locally. The pub was bright, warm and clean with a roaring fire. The barman was polite and welcoming and offered us a taste of all the beers available on the pumps, brewed by Greenodd Brewery. My wife and I chose our drinks and sat at a table. We were pleased to see a fish option and also pleased to see it was a little different from the usual Beer Battered Cod! We did, indeed, enjoy our Baked Haddock in Oatmeal. I really can't recommend this pub enough. I would, however, reiterate the way we were made to feel so welcome by the guy behind the bar. Busy, but never stressed.

What a lovely warm friendly place. Staff are very professional and welcoming. The food was superb. We couldn't have asked for better. The pork belly and open pie was so tasty and extremely well presented. The chef even came and sat and chatted with us all beside the fire. What a great homely place. A proper pub with local beer. Dog friendly. The resident dog Jim is adorable.

We stayed in a local cottage to the Ship - we ate at the pub twice and had fabulous meals with them. Great produce and excellent value for money More importantly we had a great welcome on the four occasions we ventured in for a well deserved pint of great ale after a dog walk. Our dog Skyla was also made more than welcome on every occasion. We felt like regulars after only a few minutes. Will made us so welcome and we enjoyed our Halloween there where we helped welcome in the local trick or treaters. Excellent choice of beer and all made on site - we enjoyed trying to name the new beer that we brewed whilst we were there.

Called in for a drink and some grub on a Sunday, after working all day. Not disappointed! Food was top notch! Dog friendly 🐶👌 Will behind the bar is a gentleman and super helpful. Must stop off if you are in the area and your hungry!

Warm welcome from the start, really nice pub with a great selection ales and a good menu for the food. All meals were freshly prepared and very tasty, kids had a small fish and chips, myself the pork belly and my wife had the steak and Guiness pie. Nice open fire to sit by before your meal.

This small cosy pub was just perfect. Extremely delicious Sunday roast (both vegetarians). The food is the quality you would expect at a high end restaurant at very reasonable prices (we had 2 courses for around £14pp). We both throughly enjoyed everything we ate. The staff were lovely and friendly. This pub is made even better by the roaring fire and cosy interior. Thank you so much for a lovely evening! We will defiantly return the next time we are in the lakes.

The website is a nightmare. I just wanted to see the menu I either got the Sunday roast or canapés. Won’t be trying it.

Great pub with reasonable prices and good selection of drinks. Tasty menu that accommodates all your needs

A quaint little pub and eatery in the heart if the village. Roaring log fire. Beautiful food. Home brewed local ale. Real focus on quality with prices reasonable. Perfect for a pint or a bit of grub

We ate here tonight. Fabulous food and beer with the friendliest welcome we have had in ages in a restaurant or pub. Dog friendly too and we will be back soon, not least because the dog will make us go back!

Absolutely cracking pub , need to go back

Pub was really nice, the beer I had from their micro brewery was a bit bland though.

Had a good selection of ales from the Greenodd brewery. Pub not very large but a typical cosy local. Didn’t have all we wanted on the menu as it was changing, however there was sufficient choice and what we had was very good quality. The service was excellent and staff very friendly. Definitely a place we would return to.

Visited the Ship Inn on Saturday 14th September and found the staff very welcoming and helpful. The food was fairly typical pub food but and very tasty, well presented and the service was faultless. The beer/ale being brewed on site, was of excellent quality and tasters were available to try before making a selection. The only ‘downside’ was that we tried to go back a couple of times during our weeks stay only to find that they were either closed or were only serving food over a long weekend period; perhaps due to the traditional holiday period having finished. Overall, well worth a visit, thoroughly recommended and very dog friendly.

Stayed in greenodd for a week the ship was just down the road very welcoming friendly staff . Stayed for tea all four of us were very happy with portion size and quality of the food . Excellent choice of beers and spirits . Would recommend a visit dog friendly as well ticks all the box’s

Warm welcome to us and our dog. Beer was very good. Never had a meal but perused the menu. Really good selection and reasonable price so will be back to try. Also background music was to our taste!

Looking for a dog friendly pub that does food in the area and came across the ship inn. What a good choice was made to feel welcome with 3 dogs, nice and cozy, food was excellent and a good choice of real ale.

Had a brilliant afternoon and Will made us very welcome.Fantastic ales and wonderful food.Thankyou

Popped in for a meal and wasn't disappointed. The food was tasty with decent portion sizes, friendly service and a good selection of ales plus it's dog friendly so perfect for a post dog walk stop off.

We enjoyed a very pleasant experience in the Ship last night. A very warm welcome, beautiful cooked and presented food, and great service from the staff. Couldn't ask for more and will certainly return when we are next back in the are. And of course our dog was welcomed and treated to some biscuits too! Check this place out when you are in town

Had a delicious meal tonight -the pie is amazing and the home made chocolate brownie was to die for, great service and food. We will be back😄

We had the pork belly and the burger, both were fantastic and with generous portions. The service was brilliant and the atmosphere was really nice and cosy.

Found this pub by chance on our way back to Newby Bridge. Lovely atmosphere, very pleasant staff and excellent food. Ordered the pork belly and the gammon,it was presented like restaurant quality food and tasted delicious. Will definitely recommend to friends and will return again when up this way.

We had a very good supper here last night, Saturday. There was only one barman fun waiter but he did an excellent job making us very welcome. The food arrived quickly and was very good too. Home made ice creams, a real bonus.

The place was lovely, very historic looking, the customers and the staff were very welcoming and friendly. The food was great and to top it off, some customers brought their dogs in! Bonus! Spent a lot of time chatting to people I've never met before and fussing dogs. I'd go back in a heartbeat. Loved the place, and the dogs, don't forget the dogs! ❤

Really great beer and nice good with fantastic service. Lovely to the kids . This is a proper, not a fancy, pub.

Brilliant meal, well cooked steak, excellent presentation and a lovely atmosphere. Staff very helpful and friendly. They serve quality beers brewed on the premises

Met up with a group of old Uni friends in the Lakes and happened upon this lovely gem of a pub. The staff were very welcoming, quickly managed to fit us in which wasn’t easy given we were a group of 11. Good selection of drinks and local brews. The food was delicious, varied selection and nicely presented. Also offered half portions for children so they could eat off the main menu. Would certainly recommend a visit.

Excellent food, great choice of beers, friendly staff, brilliant atmosphere.

Such an amazing experience. Came here after a day in the lakes with 2 dogs, received a warm welcome and the dogs got biscuits (even after being a bit barky - sorry!). The barman/waiter was incredibly friendly and helpful. The food was great, well priced, and the menu was well put together. Dessert was all homemade including the ice cream which was incredible! They even brew their own beer! You really can't go wrong visiting here.

By chance we drove down the narrow dead end road into Greenodd, on the southern edge of the Lake District, only to find this small and welcoming pub, just at lunchtime. We enjoyed excellent food, well prepared and presented. Our meal was way beyond standard pub fare.

So we decided last minute to try and grab a family meal on Father’s Day but didn’t hold out much hope but rang the ship to be told there were tables available(4pm Sunday),never been before but passed it lots of times on our weekly trips out to the Lakes.

Superb pub packed full of great beers. Sunday lunch was delicious and served by very friendly and attentive staff. Definitely worth the short deviation off the main road.

Really nice place to visit. Tucked away down a quiet street. They have a great selection of drinks and the food was really good.

Very friendly and accommodating pub. Had a very good night with my dad. Food well priced for the area. Thank you for a great evening!

Delicious food! Best baked brie I ever had. Friendly atmosphere and staff, highly recommended.

Very dog-friendly pub with excellent service from Jess who seemed to do everything. Food was very good value; we had homemade spicy parsnip soup and a small haddock with homemade chips. Very tasty! Then homemade chocolate brownie and sticky toffee pudding with homemade ice cream; also delicious. The place was warm, friendly and welcoming.

If you’re in this area and looking for a friendly, cosy place to eat and drink - THIS is the pub to visit!!

always very welcoming.people and pets

Brilliant food - tastiest vegetarian meal I've had out in a long time.

My wife and I have called at the Ship a number of times over the years, normally en route to our final destination in the Duddon Valley, the initial attraction for me being the range of tasty real ales produced by the pub's own in-house microbrewery. The food offering here used to largely revolve around pizzas, which we had tried and were perfectly OK. However we were interested to hear via other reviews that a more adventurous food offering was now available, so we called on spec early on a Friday evening. The pub itself was very quiet with just a few locals chatting at the bar, but who engaged us in friendly conversation making us feel welcome. We were the only diners which was a shame but perhaps due in part to our earlyish arrival shortly after start of service, and also the impact of the previous night having been Valentine's.

Nice friendly pub, food and beer was good especially after a nice walk. Only thing stopping 5 stars is lack of childrens menu. Other than that excellent.

Came across this pub 20 years ago. It still has charm and a lovely atmosphere. Good food and great beer. Will not be waiting 20 years to visit again!

This restaurant/pub is Devine. The food is great. Great prices, great atmosphere, great staff. JUST GREAT EVERTHING! There is a fire to keep you warm on a cold winters night or day. My mum has the gammon and she said “ It is delicious! “ my dad had the house burger but his words were “ It was nice but he would have preferred the gammon.” Overall, I absolutely loved this place and I definitely recommend it and will definitely come back!!!!!!

Visited with my friend and took our mammals. Staff super friendly and food even better Not my first visit which was equally lovely

Lovely little pub, delicious Sunday dinner & bangers and mash was so tasty! Nice atmosphere. It was empty to our surprise but it was a Sunday evening. Really enjoyed the food though, I would defo recommend!

Atmospheric Free House. Lots of reasons to love it. Clean, good value, great beer and superb surroundings. Will return for more!

Great beer/food and good atmosphere

Good food great real ale warm fire.

The Ales are full flavoured and there is a good variety available to suit all pallets. Atmosphere is friendly and relaxed, and the staff are extremely helpful, professional and can't do enough for you. The Chef is clearly experienced and knows his food. My hubby had Garlic and Chili Prawns and then the open pie with mash and roasted root veg. I had the Brie and caramalised onions and the pan fried Hake. All our food was well prepared and full of flavour, very satisfying. You get a generous portion of tasty food at a reasonable price. Can't fault it at all! Will be back next time we are staying in the area.

Staying nearby at Lowick, we found The Ship Inn at Greenodd through TripAdvisor and enjoyed a scrummy Sunday Roast and Sticky Toffee Pudding. The landlord and landlady were very accommodating and very friendly to have a chat with. Definitely a pub to make a return trip you when we next visit the Lake District.

The Ship Inn - Great traditional pub! Great People!

Cosy homely friendly pub with good food and good ale. Best of all its DOG FRIENDLY

We was staying locally in the village and we was recommended to go to this pub for food and drink, and we was not disappointed, the staff and locals was nice and made us and our accompanying dog feel welcome.

Very warm welcome by very pleasent staff at this small pub. Nice pub food quickly served with a smile. Would recommend!

Me and my husband stumbled on the ship inn while we were visiting the Lake District and I’m so glad we did. We had a lovely warm welcome from the staff, the atmosphere was lovely and I love the fact that dogs are welcome.

Driving home late from a couple of days in Yorkshire and decided to drop in to eat after friends recommendations. We weren’t disappointed with the warm welcome and tasty good. Will be back

Welcoming staff, excellent food and good value. We had soup and steak pie, delicious! Will definitely call in again soon.

The ship is an ideal place to relax, staff are great and the food is lovely and fresh and well presented, very tasty indeed, compliments to the chef.

After a day on the lake we stopped in here for some much needed food. The beer the steak and the atmosphere were top class. Definitely recommend.

Been coming here for a few years and always great atmosphere. Started doing food which is great too! Definitely recommend this to anyone passing through!

I visited the Ship Inn at Greenodd for a meal with my family, on first impressions it had a lovely welcoming atmosphere. The friendly bar staff greeted us and showed us to a table, I think he was called Bill. The landlord and landlady were dinning at the same time and recommend which real ale we should try! We were amazed they brewed it all on site! On their recommendation I had the award winning Greenodd Roundabout which went down a treat! After ordering our food it was a short wait until it arrived in front of us. You could tell it was all freshly made to order! Presentation was 10/10 and taste was like nothing I’ve had before! I can’t recommend the Ship Inn enough and will definitely be coming back again soon with more of my friends!

Great beer, great food, great service. What more needs to be said? Was made to feel warm and welcome on my first visit and have been a regular since!

The pub is very dog-friendly, the staff are very engaging and friendly and are happy to help. The food is excellent and well cooked and with a pool table and games and a great old record player with LP's to choose from. The building has character. Its a little off the beaten track but that's great as you avoid the hoards of tourists (like me!) and get served quickly. The local real ales are worth a try. I especially liked the 'Captains'. I came to the pub with the wife and teenage kids and dog in July for evening dinner. I recommend the place to you.

Called in for a couple of beers after a rain soaked 10 mile walk around Rusland Pool. Welcomed by cheerful and helpful staff, the local brewed beer was fantastic, can't believe I've not been here before.

We called in, having booked a table, after Cartmel Races. The food ordered took quite a while to come and looked appealing. It seems a little strange to charge for chips with the steak options - surely no-one expects to have steak,A mushroom and a tomato only on their plate? Chips should not be an extra. The gammon was very greasy and the 2 poached eggs were almost hard-boiled - very disappointing. The food was actually tasty despite these niggles, but won't be rushing back. Prices were quite high compared to similar establishments

Having recently visited the region during world cup fever, trying to book a table for a meal was challenging to say the least. Came across the ship inn during our trawl for food at just after they finished service. Explained our predicament and 'yes" happy to help.

I visited the Ship Inn at the weekend along with a coach load of people. It was a prior arrangement, and we weren't to be disappointed. We had a buffet, that I can only describe as superb, and it was tailored to our desire. The food was fresh, tasty and plentiful. The vast array of drinks on offer, was a welcome for all concerned, and something to suit everyone. The friendliness and welcome we received was overwhelming, and I would not hesitate to recommend anyone, to try this establishment.

We were touring round the lake district and found this pub by chance and so stopped for a meal, we were pleasantly suprised at how good the food was and at a reasonably price, friendly staff and as an added bonus we found that they brew their own ale.

Great beer friendly atmosphere and food fantastic what more can you ask for.traditional pub amazing in the winter after a fell walk . Awesome in the summer after a bike ride in Griezedale

I know from experience that the beer is great and brewed on site so its always great quality. There's a wide range of bitter beers, lighter ales and a stout to choose from. They have lager and cider too for those that don't drink the real stuff. You may even get to meet the brewer some days.

Great Food with lovely service. Welcoming bar staff, and a good crowd.

Having recently started exploring the area for pubs and decent meals we booked a table at the ship to try it out. Upon entering i noticed some nice real ales on the bar, good start. But being ignored by the staff for a good ten minutes and just standing in the door waiting for some kind of acknowledgement from anyone was not, eventually we got drinks and went to sit by the fire as were told our table wasn’t ready (even though it was already 15 minutes after our booking time and there were tables unoccupied).

Went recently with family. No greeting on arrival even though we had booked. Two young members of staff clearly need to be trained on how the hospitality industry should be run as they were off hand and highly unattentive!

Maybe I'm biased, as I live in the village, but the Ship is all that you would ever ask of a local village pub. After its renovation a few years back, Stuart the landlord set up the Greenodd Brewery and since then it has gone from strength to strength. After setting the scene with their Best Bitter, the brewery went on to produce some real classic ales, including Citra, Roundabout, Amarillo, Kiln, Coal Wharf Stout and Aussie Paul (named after the late, great bar manager). Stuart soon found that having other guest beers on the pump was a waste of time, as nobody was interested in drinking them. If you can't find a Greenodd ale to suit your palate then you should probably stick with lager. Along with that, the company is always good, the fires are well fed and so are the customers, with excellent food served nightly. A proper pub, with a big heart and good people - what more could an Englishman want?

After buying a new static caravan near Greenodd it has been our quest this spring to try out local pubs and restaurants.

What a great pub went yesterday for sunday lunch .fantastic food and cracking real ale .love dogs and so friendly , open fires are great homemade icecream you must try.

Great beer, great food, lovely people. Open fires, free pool. Value for money. A proper lakeland country pub.

Located on the 700 Cycle Route, Walney Island to Glasson Dock, Great food and a Great watering hole, Worth stopping off for Lunch, Highly Recommended :-)
