Ship Inn - South Hams

A real disappointment compared to our previous experiences here. Food was very basic for the price burger consisted of literally a burger and some fries nothing else, plate looked very bare/boring nothing special. Fish and chips were ok but again not reflective of the price mushy peas were dried up and the fish batter was pretty much raw and cold. Service was slow and not very attentive. Price per person: £20–30

For whatever reason the service was shockingly slow, it took more than 2hrs to get two courses served. Then it took 30mins to get the bill, such a shame because service aside the food was amazing! Price per person: £30–40 Food: 5 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes: Minty Mushy Peas, Fish and Chips

Arrived, waited to be greeted then taken to our table which was down stairs and in the furthest part of a very quite pub. After some time of no approach from staff,decided to go and fetch our first round of drinks from the bar. 10 min later had to return to bar to request menus. No body came over so went back to bar to get more drinks and request some service. Starter came then a significant time after main meals which were average quality and pricey £28 for steak, £19 for fish and chips. Plates left on our table. Another group came and sat next to us. They were offered drinks immediately, orders for food taken promptly, returned to confirm their orders. Shouted across to us that they would clear our plates that had now been on our table for 10/15 mins once they had returned with more drinks for the other table. Unbelievably rude. Can only presume service was better for larger party, local people, unsure. When spoke to manager he said it was because they were short staff but we pointed out how attentive he had been with other table. He said he had come over to our table in the early stages, we reminded him it was only to request we put wood on the fire He apologised and said he would discount our meal which he did. We still had to pay £85 for an extremely disappointing evening. It was such a shame because we had come after being recommended by a friend Parking: Difficult to find space
