The Old Ship - Réserver une table

We visited the pub as a family group and were some what disappointed by the service. Whilst the space and greenery within the garden area were lovely and the accuracy of our order fulfilment spot on, the friendliness of the bar staff left a lot to be desired. The head Bar lady seemed to be inconvenienced by our presence going through the motions, we the air of letting us know she would prefer it if we were not there certainly far from warm, friendly and welcoming. Having readily served members of our group, she then waited until we were leaving to challenge whether or not they had id, which seemed like a contradiction and as if she was relishing the opportunity to humiliate, rather than follow licensing laws and check id at point of sale. Ultimately a real shame we are all desperate for a local pub that offers a warm welcome to the local community, but this is clearly not it. Instead we were met with mediocre service and and a welcome that lacked warmth and authenticity and was more hostile than welcoming. If you want to last, do better...

Moved to area recently and thought we would try pub for a quick lunch whilst working from home not terribly impressed pub smells of old oil due to lack of extraction or filters not cleaned sat in garden with our dog and as there were only 4 people in garden (no sun shade on any tables) we let him off lead he’s a 14 year old Westie (so of course terrifying to others) he wandered over to the dog bowl and we were immediately told to put him back on lead by this time we were the only people in the garden everyone locally we have spoken to warned us off this pub and we wanted to give them benefit of the doubt, but with the lack of sparkling water (acted like this was a weird thing to ask for in 2023) and the food menu being circa 1982 we will not be returning nor will our dog this community pub has all the bones of a great pub, fab sized garden, centre of the village but it needs a shake up and a move to modern pub culture it could be amazing and the heart of this village but it’s far from it and it’s very disappointing.

Warm, friendly and very traditional pub with a decent range of food and drink. The service was very friendly and the food was good, especially the home made soup. First visit for many years and will definitely return.
