"On arrival at The Ship Inn we were greeted by a nice lady who served us some drinks at the bar. We then went over to a table to settle down for what we thought was going to be a nice meal. The lady took our order and suggested to my partner that the fish was a good choice as it was huge, so we ordered the fish chips and I opted for the chilli con carne. We didn’t have to wait long before the food was bought out and this is where the problems started! The fish wasn’t “huge” at all and the chilli portion was tiny. I politely asked for some more chilli and the nice lady’s attitude towards us changed completely at this point. If you can’t take criticism lady then you’re in the wrong job! She asked the chef for some more who apparently said yes he will sort it yet she then said we don’t have any and I could have some chips. The chips were mediocre but the chilli had very little taste to it, you’d be better off spending £1 on a microwave meal which would taste better. I would normally have taken this further and asked to speak with the manager having been completely ripped off for the price of the bland food, our drinks and the poor service but it was the start of our holiday, my family were all tired and we just wanted to leave. We had high hopes for this place but we won’t be returning again."

Friendly staff, tasty fish and chips, and a side salad, but it’s more expensive than in London, for lunch it costs 16 pounds for a large portion fish and chips and the portions are smaller. Price per person: £10–20 Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Fish and Ships

The Ship Inn in Portloe is a real gem among the pubs in Cornwall and on the South West Coast Path a place for you to make yourself feel at home. They serve hearty pub classics, a fixture on the menu are burgers and fish chips that I can recommend. Service is very friendly. Rooms are cosy and comfortable. Would definitely come back.
