Ship

Once again the food was disgusting...every thing was overcooked and dry. How can you possibly serve food that was obviously burnt. We will not eat there again, the only saving grace is the young barman and his co worker.

Portion sizes are very poor for the price you pay for the food. Nearly £4 for cheesy chips and this is the portion you get.

My dad reserved a table for us both today (30th March 2024 on a Saturday lunchtime) because we decided to eat there on our way to Barry Island. The pub wasn’t as busy as I thought it would be upon arrival. Although our reserved table was originally by a big table with a large family with young children on it, my dad asked if we could sit somewhere quieter and a member of bar staff kindly led us to a designated area for over 18s, which was mostly quieter than the main part of the pub. The music wasn’t too intrusive. I liked the decor of the pub including pictures of Barry Island. I went to the bar to see if I could obtain an NGCI (no gluten-containing ingredients) menu but there was nobody at the bar at that time. When my dad went to that bar, the bar staff who was finally there said I could scan the QR code in the main menu for the NGCI one. I wanted Dr. Pepper Zero with a cherry shot to drink but when my dad brought our drinks to our table, he told me there was no Dr. Pepper Zero, so he ordered me Coca-Cola Zero with the cherry shot instead. I couldn’t quite taste the cherry shot in my drink. My dad was pleased that he could use his Blue Light Card discount code to get 20% off our meals, even on a Saturday lunchtime. My dad ordered the Full Monty mixed grill and I ordered the Pick and Mix chicken skewers sizzler with jacket potato, salad and barbecue sauce. The chicken in both our meals was pleasantly tender, my side salad was fresh and my barbecue sauce was good but my jacket potato didn’t have the crispy skin I was expecting. There were also some tough bits in the onion and pepper mixture. My dad also enjoyed the sausages in his Full Monty, but he found his steak hard to cut even though he asked for it to be cooked rare. Despite the friendliness of the bar staff, the service was rather slow. Overall, despite the slow and somewhat inattentive service and the slight disappointments of our food, my dad and I liked our food for the most part and the quieter atmosphere of the over 18s area. 4/5. Dietary restrictions: There is an NGCI (no gluten-containing ingredients) menu available.

Love the pub always a happy atmosphere, the food is great quality especially for the price and also Paige is fab, always happy helpful and chatty. See you guys soon x

It seemed like one woman was doing everything. She was at the bar and told us where our table was, she took our order. Brought us our food, cleared our plates and I also saw her cleaning up after a bunch of messy kids. She was an asset to your establishment but I don't know her name (Sat 9th March 12pm) Food was quick and hot. The only thing that let it down is the music was too loud as there was football commentary on too and it was overwhelming. Would definitely come back though

Love the pub and the grub Wicked staff

Really great visit, amazing food and service huge thanks to Mickey and Wendy for being so kind and helpful.
