The food was lovely, and the service to begin with was good but then we started to feel ignored. Our drinks orders were forgotten, and then our plates and glasses were taken away without a word or any eye contact, we were ignored for 40 minutes and couldn't seem to get anyone's attention while they tended to tables around us. We decided to skip dessert in the end, and then I went to the toilet to find no toilet paper. I understand it was a busy day as it was Easter Sunday, and hope this was just an off day, it just wasn't a welcoming experience.

We ate quite early so the restaurant and pub were very quiet which accounts for my atmosphere score. The food was very good in particular the game pie. The waiting staff were very attentive an friendly, just what you want in a family pup restaurant, We had an autistic 15 year old with us with whom the staff were excellent.

I hadn't been here for years & years and thought it would be a great place to stop-off after a drive up to the coast and see if I could buy one of their famous bottles of 'Nelsons Blood' (spiced rum). After dumping the car in the large car park(s) we wandered in to be greeted warmly and asked for a table for lunch. After a cheeky non-alcohol drink (they have loads of varieties for the non-drinker) the lady came over to ask up what we would like. We were umming & arrring until she said, "What about or special ham, egg & chips?". We looked at each other and turned back and both said "Sold!". That meal was epic. Look at that ham!!! How they cut the chips like that i'll never know. Great staff, great food, unpretentious and five stars from us. Thank you! (No joy on the rum front as they were out of one of the ingredients due to 'national shortage'. Never mind...)

Amazing Sunday lunch. Very reasonably

Cracking Sunday lunch here. Really well cooked and presented. Lots there too - it defeated me which is unusual! And - really dog friendly. Treats and water for the dog on the way in and a menu for the pooch too. And the friendly staff all said hello to the dog. Definitely will return.

A little disappointed. A couple of dishes were not great . Some staff not particularly friendly. Pricey for what it was .

Always a warm welcome. The food is of a very high standard and they go out of their way to accommodate my son’s allergies. Highly recommend.Dietary restrictions: Our son has severe allergies and it is such a pleasure to eat somewhere we feel safe and heard. Thank you.

Lovely looking pub but caters more for diners. Very welcoming and lovely interior and the staff very friendly and attentive. However.. the food was not as the prices suggest, one dish was sent back as not cooked properly, the server couldn’t have been any more apologetic and returned with a warmer offering but the damage was done and reappeared a bit later ? Also a bit of a bug bear but when taking orders for drinks please clear the old glasses.

This is the first time we have visited and would come again. We had the fish and chips which was excellent. Batter light and the tartare sauce divine. Good value, pleasant atmosphere and friendly staff.
The most fabulous lunch ! Delicious Christmas Pie .. and I dont even like pies but it was so good ! Really great to see local wine too from Burn Valley up the road .. a great spot and friendly service too

Overpriced. Noisy. Unwelcoming. Slow service. I was expecting much more from this after reading other reviews. I would rather go to The Ship and pay less and get a better experience.
