Unfortunately I was in a lager mood, they have St Mungo on tap too though :) They do two-fers on pizzas, and a real carvery on Sunday, ie you can go up, and up, and up - I think I may have even bankrupted a couple of hotels in the past! We went for the main menu though, we all ordered the Highlander burger for a main, and two of us had meatballs (very similar to a tapas Albondigas as it turned out). Great, friendly service from the young waitresses. The meatballs were with us in no time. My father really liked his, I really liked mine as well, well except for the temperature, they were lukewarm at best. Unfortunately this only goes to prove they weren't cooked fresh, as my father's were hot. Tut tut! The flavours were great though, tight balls with a spiced tomato sauce with a cheesy layer, even the Spanish and Italians don't do them this good! And then the burgers, quite similar to the local legendary in HRC Glasgow, they had haggis and creamy whisky sauce on them, but also onions and mushrooms. Dare I say at least as good as the Hard Rock's in fact. The burger was tasty and held together well and the chips were nicely done. My only criticism would be the roll, it was a bit too quick to fall apart. A star off for the lukewarm starter and the roll integrity, but otherwise a great lunch!

The Fisherman Pie, which was Haddock, Smoked Haddock and Salmon in a Creamy Leek & Chive Sauce, topped with Mash Potato and Isle of mull Cheddar, was delicious.

On top of that, they had a nice long list of ciders to select from and they had the Kopparberg Strawberry & Lime, which is one of my favorites.

From the outside the Ship Inn looks like a local bar on the "welcoming" side of the scale as…read moreopposed to the "Tourists Beware" side. On entering it is a spacious and cosy looking bar that is definitely suited for tourists with a collection of beer mats almost being used as wallpaper to cover most of the free space behind the bar, some of which I had never even heard of! The decor and feel to the sitting area itself is traditional with a modern fusion, little tweaks like old spirit bottles (JD mainly) being used as candle holders are excellent to the vibe of the place and really let you settle happily in to one of the booths and take the surroundings in. We went in here because my better half was feeling hungry (I was saving myself for the North Berwick Fry which is just next door to the Ship Inn, in hindsight I should have eaten here) and decided to pop in here for a drink & a bit of lunch/dinner, we definitely weren't disappointed. A chicken and bacon burger was ordered and a chicken and bacon burger it was. Where the chicken that this chicken breast came from I don't know but it was definitely doing some serious weightlifting and bulking up. It was MASSIVE, in all it's chickeny beauty I found it hard to resist taking a huge bite out of the burger. Long stoy short, I ended up taking a huge bite out of the burger. The chicken was beautifully juicy for general pub grub and the bacon was lovely, sweet but slightly salted which gelled all the flavours of the breaded chicken and the toasted roll together. Thinking about it now, I'm getting hungry again. Every time I have a pub burger, the side salad always lets it down, every time, it's like the bars expect people not to eat it, but not this bar. The salad was crisp and fresh, served up with a deliciously sweet vinaigrette that was perfect for dipping a wee bit of the roll in. The spirit measures were 35ml and the guest ales on offer covered breweries such as Innis & Gunn and The Inveralmond Brewery (who do beers such as Lia Fail and Ossian) which justified the bar being about 60-70p more expensive than the others we visited.

It's an unofficial local nexus for Fence Records, the small indie label started by a friend of mine over a decade ago, and chances are if you pop in here on a Friday afternoon you might just run into someone you know. Over the years the Ship has seen its share of music, and like any local pub worth anything it has a healthy cast of regulars who'll you'll find propping up a bar stool everyday. The nautical theme is par for the course in this seaside village, but there are loads of really neat historical shots framed and hanging on the walls that are worth checking out if you're ever in there. And be sure and say hi to Dave, the owner!
