The Ship Inn Lerryn

We booked for lunch at 1pm, for 4 adults plus 2 young children. The staff were very welcoming and accommodated the needs of our young children with genuine sincerity, going the extra mile during our visit. Overall I would rate this experience very highly......yes, out of season, but extremely attentive. The food was excellent and so was the service, we would definitely go again. Thank you very much!

Lovely birthday lunch at the Ship. We had 2 little boys (3 and 5) with us. The staff were amazing, super efficient and brilliant with the little boys. We can't speak highly enough of the staff, they were so good. Food was amazing, well done chef, and the beer was excellen. I would recommend the Sea Fury.

The best Sunday lunch in South East Cornwall, everything fresh as a daisy, served by friendly and engaging staff….pudding selection was also very good, atmosphere was really nice with dominoes being played in the bar, will definitely return..

It cost £14.50 for a pint of cider and a small glass of red wine. Really disappointing prices even if it were a London pub. However staff were pleasant and it is a decent pub with a superb beer garden at the back and decent WiFi which is essential.

We arrived at 3pm after a walk and asked if they were serving. The waiter said no but landlady said yes; I think this confused or annoyed him. There was a very stressed young waitress who looked very anxious. 40 mins later we were going to ask on an update when we noticed the young lady looking worried and clearly talking about our table. The waiter chap kept shrugging his shoulders as though it wasnot his problem. Eventually the food arrived minus any cutlery. When I requested cutlery the young waitess literally slammed five sets of knives and forks down. There was a very awkward silence from us and I considered leaving right there. It was shocking . The child's veggy plate when it arrived consisted of four pieces of parsnip and two roast potatoes. I was flabbergasted and requested a Yorkshire pudding. No veggy gravy was offered. The others had beef which they all very much enjoyed. The food was delicious; the service abysmal . Whilst we appreciate it was later on a Sunday and staff may be tired; we were treated indifferently and the waitress was very rude. We paid the same as folk coming in when the staff were fresh so should have been treated way way better. We think she may have been grumpy because of lack of support from other staff or it may have been her first day; either way it was not something we should have been aware of or concerned about. In summary our experience was the food was delicious though not veggy friendly and the service was alfal. If you like nice food and rude staff you'll love it; if not roll the dice.

Can't wait to go back, great atmosphere, lovely food and friendly helpful staff, great selection of beers and largers, what a beautiful spot on the river 😀 canoeing paddle boarding, lovely walks along the river and up into the woods.
