Lovely clean and tidy pub by river,spoilt by some other surroundings. Friendly welcoming staff. Food very good. But at 9.20pm we were brought the bill and told they wanted to go home we expected to stay for another round of drinks which spoilt the end of the evening

When a Restaurant says ' Dogs Welcome' it is resonable to expect that applies to all days of the week - well apprently NOT!!! Notice for all dog owners: Dogs are NOT ALLOWED IN THE PUB ON A SUNDAY as it gets busy. So don't waste your time and go somewhere else.

What a lovely location absolutely ruined by the terrible and rude landlord! As we pulled in to the car park, one of our family party picked a plum off of the tree under which he had parked, there was a man stood outside of the pub who began hurling abuse at my family member using extremely strong language. Claiming the trees were private property, not realising this was the case my family member apologised for encroaching on the private land. Despite the apology, the abuse continued, this all happened in ear shot of children both eating at the establishment and in our party. We assumed he was a customer, so we continued to walk towards the pub, he then began hurling abuse at us all, he exclaimed with strong language for all of us to leave as he was the landlord. Myself and the rest of the party will never attempt to go back whilst this individual is in charge. My advice would be to avoid at all cost!

Terrible, owner spat at us as I asked him to reheat the food, it was cold and looked dried up I think he?s a little bit crazy

Pulled into the car park and a member of our party parked in front of a plum tree. Picked a plum and was hurled abuse across the car park from the male owner of the pub. The owner didn?t even attempt to come over and explain that he was upset with a plum being picked but instead continued to shout and hurl abuse across the car park. Ok, so picking a plum from a tree in the car park is not the done thing but there are ways of expressing this to people and that does not include shouting across a car park rather than approaching someone. Unfortunately, this behaviour was in front of many people sitting outside enjoying their food and drinks. Not the sort of behaviour I would expect from a landlord, it was only a plum on a tree. Must have been having a very bad day. Myself and the 7 other guests I had with me will not be returning.

We called here for a drink and light snack on the way back from Norfolk, due to it's wonderful position right on the confluence of the rivers Little and Great Ouse. We chose a sharing platter of chicken wings and breaded cheese, mushrooms, onion rings etc. It arrived very hot (so far, so good) but the chicken wings were either on the turn, or of such poor quality and so full of stress hormone that they were unpalatable. The salad garnish was gritty and without risking the chicken we were left with scant, little food between us two. We did mention the unpleasant taste of the chicken to a man behind the bar but received no appropriate response. On the basis of this particular experience I'd only recommend a visit for a drink and the setting alone. We certainly would not wish to eat there again.

Met up with family for lunch and had a great time. Food was excellent, well cooked and very delicious. I chose this venue because they had a very good plant based menu, we weren?t disappointed. Service was very friendly and efficient. I only marked it down because the ale I ordered had just run out but there was a choice of two alternatives. The one I chose was perfect. We went Tuesday lunch time and the pub was very busy so I would recommend booking.

Friday to Sunday catering for 40 plus people for dinner lunch and breakfast as well as your normal busy service. The service was fantastic as was the food. Staff friendly and helpful as usual. Look forward to seeing you all soon.

We held our boat club regatta here over the weekend arriving Friday till Sunday. We booked the entire restaurant for Friday and Saturday nights and were amazed at the excellent quality of the food and very attentive service. Given there were almost 40 of us it was truly impressive to be able to cater on this scale without any compromise on quality and service. Highly recommend, we will definitely be back. Many thanks to Pete and staff and Justin the chef.

Great carvery, Sunday lunch. We were moored outside this pub and could smell the cooking from about 8am! Roast beef. We went in for Sunday lunch and it was a treat. Two great slices from the huge joint, help yourself to veg, carrots, broccoli, peas, cabbage, cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes and big Yorkshire pud, lots of hot gravy. Really good quality and well cooked. Good value too. Had a apple and red fruit crumble and custard shared, for afters. Would recommend without hesitation. We returned for a evening meal later in the week, good pub grub, nice staff.

We were looking for somewhere we could take our dog at lunchtime last Friday so I messaged the Ship. I got a reply to say that they did and another message a little later to suggest making a booking as they had been busy all week. When we arrived we had a very friendly welcome and our dog was thoroughly spoilt, as were we. We all had the Beef stew and dumplings ( the daily special) which was excellent and good values as were the desserts. 3 hand pulled beers on the bar and lovely country pub atmosphere, we will definitely be back.

A delightfully decorated table set the scene for an ideal Valentines? Dinner. Swift but not rushed smiling service brought nicely cooked tasty dishes. We couldn?t have wished for better, a chance to celebrate and laugh together. Thank you to all the staff (including that briefly seen hardworking skilled chef) for making our evening special, at a time when we really needed special.
