The Ship - Banana split!

The Ship

££

visited The Ship for food, we ordered the fish 2 for £20. We were over charged when ordering the…read morefood and drinks to start with. However they did say they will refund back on to the card, which we are still yet to receive. We had nearly finished our drinks around an hour later and I had to ask how much longer will the food be. The lady then ran into the back and appeared 5 mins later with the food. We could see the chips looked well overdone but thought we will try them and see. All we could taste was a burnt flavour and waited around 10-15 min to find a member of staff to report it to. I asked the lady for replacement chips. She then walked off into the back with one of the plates of food, left the second on the bar. About 10 minutes later the lady reappeared carrying the plate, picked up the plate that had been sat on the bar and slammed the food back on the table. The lady then picked a chip off the plate and squashed it in front of my mothers face, then threw the chip back on the plate of food and said there is nothing wrong with them. That's how we serve them. I said you have touched the food so we couldn't even eat it anyway now. Then the landlord came over picked up a few chips of the other plate tapped them on the table and said there fine and threw it back on the plate. We asked for a refund as this was unacceptable. 2 other customers said they were burnt and got up and left without eating. The lady then proceeded to shout across the bar saying they are not Wetherspoons and that is how they cook their food.The lady continued shouting at us abusively, all we asked was for fresh edible chips. The landlord eventually said he will replace it with fresh chips which he then explained were microwaved and in a disposable packet when presented to us. They explained they pre cook the chips in the fryer then when ordered they microwave them refry them, microwave them and refry again. Which resulted in burned hard greasy chips. I will not recommend this establishment to visit. The most concerning was the lady's attitude and abusive nature to us as paying customers. To feel threatened while explaining our concern is not what you want when going out for a special meal with my mother. I would hope the lady has realised that when customer facing you should not shout abusive comments and touch customers food. This is a disgrace and we are feeling physically shaken by the horrific experience. We have had to throw the food away as it was not edible.

Fabulous food, great beer, good price, enough said!…read more On sundays they only do a roast with usual meat offerings. One of the best roasts I've ever had!

Fantastic food. Highly recommended…read more Great service, outstanding food, lovely place! A must visit!

having eaten at both inn on the green and the black horse with my family recently if were talking…read moreabout comparisions there isnt one lets start with the service the inn on the green provides professional service and standards that we have not experienced in a long time at a village pub very impressed. as for the black horse half the staff were outside smoking when we arrived and the language was disgusting even if we didint have our children with us and thats why we was probably waiting ages for any service, we could have come between there smoke breaks if was told when that was. lets talk about food the inns web site is totally correct fresh food and some grown on the premises as i saw for myself it was very well cooked and just as well presented again down to the service again very impressed. the black horse how ever not alot fresh im afraid and would of been nice for all our family to eat together instead of in stages and it was not busy at all so no excuse there. down sides for both places.....The inn on the green, cud nt find one on our visit great value for money and all the awards they have won totally earned including a great review in the journal for february recently. the black horse, bad news quite alot overpriced including drinks, service very poor, language outside and inside very offensive and no need at all and obviously allowed by the management, very dissapointed. Will say they have a very nice outside patio area. good for kidz. as for the last review i dont no how many places they eat at in a day because they ate at the inn on the green on there web reviews and also ate at the black horse on there site to same day interesting. m.banks
