The Ship in Staffordshire Moorlands

Been past this little hidden gem so many times, yet never called in. But boy did it surpass itself, food was phenomenal and as for the desert menu couldn't believe how many they served. Definitely going back soon.

Went to the Ship Inn and enjoyed a meal with my wife. They only had one cask ale on but it was in perfect condition. Much better to have one good ale than 2 or 3 not up to scratch. The menu had plenty of choice and good sized portions. Chicken and ham pie was freash and tasty. My wife had scampi of which there was plenty with a good salad.

Top food and good choice menu. The food is always seems to be fresh and reasonably priced. Can't fault the placeThe Bailey's and white chocolate cheesecake was just amazing!!

Lovely place,home cooked food, large portions.once you have been,you will always be back.book a table because it's always full, delicious and puddings amazing.told my daughter she went and now it's her favourite place.

We were attracted to the price to be honest.2 Courses for £11 that was a no brainer, so i booked by phone to reserve a table for 4 people.Great parking, all good arrived but the reservation was down to 3 people easy done 🤔We all tried different things but waited a little for some one to take our orders.Pleasant staff clean place i was impressed.However the food was over cooked e.g. i ordered chicken strips with breadcrumbs and side salad.The chicken was very brittle and hard it hurt my mouth when i tried to eat it.I had mixed grill which was over cooked.All in all the meals were the same.Seemed quite busy though so decide for yourselves.

We visited for the second time on Saturday for a family meal. We booked ahead as knew it would be busy on a Saturday. The service was great and the staff (Amelia) went over and above to accommodate a fussy eater on our table by offering to take certain items off the plate and offered an alternative which made my son feel less conscious about his choices.The service from all of the staff was perfect and the time left between courses was perfect.When it’s only the second time visiting we were hoping it would be as good as the first time when we visited as a couple. Second time was better and will Certainly be returning soon. The final thing is the price of the food, this was great value for money and wide variety.Lovely to visit such a friendly place with excellent service. Thank you.

Had a Christmas meal here. My first time here. Staff very pleasant, tables clean. Food came on time and was hot. The only downside for me was the fact it was not freshly cooked. More like microwave meals. Don't get me wrong the food was ok and my guests left happy. Another thing I noticed was a lack of ladies toilets. I went to use the toilet and found a wheel chair user struggling in the one and only toilet. I felt quiet embarrassed as she had to leave the toilet door wide open while using the toilet. I made a quick exit and waiting a while before returning to use the toilet.

Didn't know what to expect with a £10 two course meal but we were really surprised. The food was really good. We rocked up on a Sat evening with no booking and the kind staff gave us a seat by the bar as they were fully booked. They were very busy but they staff were great, you could see they were under pressure and could probably do with more staff but they were very efficient and the food really was delicious (thanks chef) so much so we went back on Sunday for their roast 👌

PERFECT 2 COURSES FOR £10 . Thought we'd try here as the draycott arms who do a similar deal have got gready since covid and proper raised there prices and after our meal tonight we'll never go back to draycott arms . Lovely food we both really enjoyed both of our courses good drinks really pleased to see kronenburg on draught and real chips at that price to which is always a bonus . A REAL LITTLE GEM IN LITTLE TEAN HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ALL

First time here for myself and my wife, we live locally but had never been to the Ship before. On arriving we were greeted cheerfully by a young waitress who asked us to sit at any table we liked and she'd be over to take our orders. The menu was very nice and as a bonus the food including desert's were all homemade even the chips.We had a fish n chips and a hunters chicken for main which was really tasty, then we had a chocolate orange sponge and coffee and walnut cake for desert's, Both were unbelievably amazing so tasty.The overall experience would be 10/10 based on the quality of the food, staff and the reasonable price. Will definitely be back again. Thank you for a fantastic meal 👍
