On our annual holidays to cornwall we always end up here and are never disapointed with the food, this visit the food was even better than usual. Monkfish curry was just right, the sirloin steak was one of the best iv had. Service was very good and nothing is ever too much trouble, the food arrived very quickly. They were... More

Lots of choices on an interesting menu. Good location right in the centre of Padstow with an outside covered area. However dont like the fact that lots of families have picnics in this area so if busy inside you eat your food with families having their own picnics and no one ever tells them its not allowed. (There is a... More

We went to this pub on spec not expecting very much from pub food however we found the menu imaginative and reasonably priced for the area. Service was good and the standard of food excellent. Don't be put off by the outside apperance as the rear conservatory is light and airy.

I took my family out this weekend for lunch. Given the weather we sat outside and ordered food and drink at the bar. The menu was extensive but as my wife is gluten intolerant, I approachd the staff who were happy to assist us with our selection. Both the standard of food and quality of service from all should be... More

We went if for lunch whils walking around Padstow. The selection was fine, and we opted for a crab salad, and a crab sandwich. Both were fairly pricey for what they were, but hey, this is padstow. The salad was fine, but small. And the sandwich started off fine, but I kept finding bigger and bigger bits of crabshell in... More

We stayed as a party of 10 and overall the quality was very good. We only required rooms for one night and the staff were very accommodating for our needs as we were unable to stay longer. The car park is a little difficult to find and could be signposted better, on arrival we were shown to our respective rooms,... More

We booked online based on a recommendation from my family, and were really looking forward to it. We arrived and after a drink in the bar we were shown to our table by a member of the bar staff. No one told us if it was table service or not so we waited 10 minutes with no drinks. The waitress... More

We visited the Old Ship Hotel on Easter Sunday and although it was extremely busy the staff were friendly and efficient. As a large group we all ordered the roast dinner and it was fantastic. The service was excellent and the children (aged from 4 - 15) were made very welcome. They have several real ales to chose from and... More

We had a lovely stay at The Ship, fantastic location, clean and the staff couldn't be more helpful and friendly. We have a hotel and we honestly couldn't fault it, it had a lovely buzz about the place. Breakfast was delicious and we will defiantly be back. Recommend to everyone.
