The Old Ship Inn - Carte

Great Local Pub Restaurant We visited late Friday Afternoon just for Teas and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The Pubs lovely inside. Staff are helpful and friendly too We will see you again soon. Keep up the good work

Cosy genuine old village pub with great choice of real ales kept in top order. The choice of food is impressive, from good pizzas, pub grub and more adventurous ideas. The salmon with chorizo mash was amazing. Very attentive and friendly staff

This was our second visit , and travelled up from Staffordshire , the meals are fab and plenty full, great value for money, the staff are hands on which is lovely, Would definitely recommend . Thank you for another lovely start to our evening . Voir le carte

Living in the next village we much prefer the Old Ship in Lowdham. Proper food, great service and a welcoming atmosphere. A great range of beers (Oakham Citra was great), we had liver and onions and game casserole quality was fantastic and a great price support this gem of a pub!

What a fantastic little country pub, staff welcoming friendly. This was the first time visiting this pub we will be back Visited on a Sunday with family and totally enjoyed our meals. Most had the Sunday lunch (turkey,beef,lamb,chicken pork) with fresh veg . Quality, presentation quantity was excellent. All left room for pudding which were equally delicious. If in the area we would certainly recommend this establishment even if was for a drink.

Hadn’t booked and although they were really busy they managed to accommodate us. Food was lovely, Sunday lunches for us all, tender meat, generous portions, very tasty. Lots of choice, even for the roast meats, we all had different choices. Normal and specials also being served so not limited for choice at all. We were too full for pudding! Staff were very efficient and friendly. Don’t live nearby but will definitely make the effort to return. Excellent all round. Thanks for fitting us in. Voir le carte

Despite being a bit pricey, the pub seemed pleasant until I witnessed the landlady yelling at customers at the bar. It turns out they had found something on top of a can and asked for a replacement, but she refused to serve them. The whole situation could have gone unnoticed by the other patrons if the landlady had not made a scene in front of everyone. Her behavior was rude and unnecessary, as she was the only one escalating the situation. If you cannot handle criticism or interact with customers respectfully, you should not be in a customer-facing role. This kind of behavior is unacceptable for a landlady.

Last minute decision to return to this lovely pub on a Monday evening for dinner having not eaten here for a few years. The new management and staff (Gary Lindsay) were very welcoming and friendly providing great service throughout our visit. Menu is extensive. We loved the fish chips and steak pie. Pleasant ambiance albeit pub was quiet due to miserable weather Monday eve. Great value for money..and just a surprisingly special evening that was last minute, quick meal original plan. We will definitely return to this very hospitable and friendly pub. Highly recommended having eaten at most local pubs in the area.

Disappointed this time whent today at 1pm, when we've been before the place has been very busy, not this time ,to say it was a Bank Holiday, it was very quiet, ther was only a couple in at 1 pm, the bartender told us the special was fish pie, we don't eat red meat, the wife doesn't like batter on fish, so she ordered the fish pie I had fish and chips, my dinner ok, but the wife's fish pie to much salt, not much fish a lot of mash cheese, the seasonal veg nearly cold, but worst of all was the bartender came to the next table said the special was fish pie chicken mushroom pie, now if he had told us that we both would have had it,that's our favorite, have a chance next week.
