The Ship never fails to disappoint in the 30 years we have been coming here. 7 of us for a Sunday lunch. Excellent service with friendly staff. Very busy with a great atmosphere. The beef was so tender it just melted in your mouth. The accompanying vegetables were generous portions and the desserts were to die for! We'll be back!

Absolutely great food. Veggie choices were original and top quality. The others thought their meat choices were really good too. Marked down by somewhat slow service but it was worth the wait!

We decided to come here for our wedding anniversary & a second meal. It was a very long way to drive but we had fond memories ! It hadn't changed a bit - wonderful host & food.

Today my husband and I had lunch at the Ship Inn. Friendly welcome, excellent service and delicious food. We both had liver parfait to start, really tasty with Melba toast. Hubby then had Belly Pork with crackling and I had Sole with a tasty sauce. Both were perfectly cooked. We were both full but decided we needed to try a dessert, so we shared a warm chocolate brownie with ice cream with was yummy. We will definitely be back.

Booked in here for dinner with a few friends. Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. The food was top quality. Of note the duck was excellent as was the ox cheek suet pudding. I will definitely be coming here again.

The staff make this place, seems like a genuinely great place to work (all the staff were super friendly and smiley). We had the pork and the vegan dish, both were great. Loved how unique the vegan dish was! Fantastic, thank you!

We were greeted very warmly and offered a table in the quirky interior. The menu has some interesting dishes and the classics too. We both ate the belly pork with mustard mash. The mash was delicately flavoured, not overpowering. Generous portion of pork. Beautiful sauces. I had been going to order the side of cheesy sourdough but I wouldn't have had room! And the Jail ale was excellent. Not to be missed if you are near Ugborough.

The most delicious food in a lovely setting. We were spoilt for choice on the menu. Reasonably priced and well presented

Despite living about 2 miles away, we'd never actually been to the Ship Inn even though we'd been recommended it several times. So when family came to visit us, we took the opportunity and went. It's a lovely setting, in the village square, with a nice church opposite. We were spoilt for choice with the menu. My brother-in-law and mother-in-law both saying they could eat everything on the menu and were having a hard time picking. To cut a long story short, they both commented that the food was the "best they had EVER eaten anywhere" and that's quite high praise from a 60yo and a 85yo who have eaten at their fair share of places in their lifetime. Suffice to say, we'll be back. Update: We went back today, 13th August 2023, for sunday lunch and my wife commented that the menu was excellent and that the beef was absolutely perfect. The portion sizes are generous too. I can see us being very regular here!

Friendly hosts and fantastic food. Linguine was great as was lemon sole. Reasonably priced compared to other places. We will definitely be back.

Been here several times recently when visiting Devon and the Ship never fails to deliver. Most recent visits were for evening meals in the bar area as we had our dogs with us - the full menu is available in the bar area and it is just as nice as the restaruant area in our view. So many tasty looking things on the menu we came back a few nights later. The food was great, particularly the steaks and the pub has a nice relaxed atmosphere with friendly efficient staff - one of my favourite pubs.
